The Art and Science of Mindfulness explores mindfulness as both a way to improve well-being and an important clinical skill for therapists and other helping professionals. The book explains how mindfulness can help people recognize biases, reduce reactivity, and respond to life with greater awareness and wisdom. It highlights mindfulness as a tool for improving attention, empathy, self-awareness, self-care, and therapeutic effectiveness. The third edition also includes updated research on the neuroscience of mindfulness, implicit bias, new mindfulness-based interventions, and practical ways to apply mindfulness in therapy.
