Summary of Wherever You Go, There You Are by Jon Kabat-Zinn

How hard is it for you to sit and enjoy the moment? Perhaps you’re on vacation or sunbathing on the beach, you feel as if nothing can ruin the moment. Then, you begin to think about all the stresses in your life, prohibiting you from truly enjoying the moment. Unfortunately, many people let the past and future cloud their minds, forcing them to forget about where they are in the present moment. Sometimes this fog of not living in the present ends up taking over our lives, and we allow our minds to wander and take us away from where we want to be. So how can we prevent this from happening? What’s the answer? Mindfulness. Mindful meditation centers around living in the present moment and not allowing thoughts of the past or future to take over the mind. Throughout Wherever You Go, There You Are, you’ll learn about the techniques you can implement for practicing mindfulness. As you read, you’ll learn how to calm your mind through the many forms of mindful meditation.
