3.0 out of 5 stars For the not yet even moderately mindful, Oct 18 2003
By theworld (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
I thought I would slip a review in here by someone who is already familiar with mindfulness. The thing with many books on mindfulness, is that they don't offer anything except encouragement to be mindfull. I would suggest this book for occassional reading for those who often forget their consciousness for days at a time. Slow and continuous reading will help implement the motivation to be more aware.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring, Jan 23 2003
I'm a college student who frequently loathes her readings. NOT THIS ONE. It will challenge the way you think, it will challenge the way you act, it will challenge your perceptions, it will change your life and the way you see it...in a positive, worthwhile, meaningful, not condescending, warming, loving, caring way.

Do yourself a favor, READ THE BOOK. Rent it from the library, borrow a copy from a friend, buy it if you want. You can pick it apart, read the SHORT, CONCISE, WISE chapters in any order you want for any duration, and you will inevitably learn from it.

I am eternally grateful to my professor who assigned this book. It has made me a better person.

5.0 out of 5 stars An incredibly helpful book, Jan 28 2002
By A Customer
Stephen Levine is an extremely compassionate person who transmits this ability to the reader. He inspires the reader to be loving and patient with others and him/herself. Hope and love are inspired and it's an all together useful and reachable path that he shows us. This book is a must for any seeker or traveler on the spiritual path.
