In the CMR workbook, mindfulness is made accessible by rendering the practice flexible and grounded in real-world demands.It summarises the key learning for each session and invites you to give yourself the time, space and permission to enrich your life with mindfulness, and to cultivate kindness and compassion to regulate yourself in the midst of our dysregulated world.In an engaging blend of research-based findings, exercises, and poetry, Karen Atkinson, who has over 30 years of experience teaching mindfulness and compassion, supports you in incorporating mindfulness in your everyday life.
