Came across this article which is an excellent introduction to mindfulness meditation.

I have an earlier book Danny Penman coauthored with Mark Williams called Mindfulness: a practical guide to finding peace in a frantic world. It has a wonderful CD of short guided meditations. Truly recommended.

    Thanks so much for sharing.

    I can honestly say that the mindfulness technique of 'yoga nidra' also known as 'body scan meditation' was the one thing i did on a daily basis during chemo - sometimes morning and night. I highly recommend it - not only to cancer patients also to their loved ones going thru. this journey.
