My Recommendation

A Little Bit of Mindfulness: an Introduction to Being Present, is part of a series written for the layperson about mindfulness. 

Amy Leigh Mercree, the author, clearly knows what she is talking about and has a gift for simplifying what is really a complex way of living. Accessibility is the most important feature of this book. Enough guidance to ease one into living in the moment but not so much that people are overwhelmed.

I enjoy the topic and was happy to read this book. I learned some good pointers.

My Recommendation

Mindfulness is a powerful and effective topic that all take for granted concerning their health. Mindfulness has become a very popular topic in our library and this book does a great job reflecting and explaining mindfulness in its concept and how it's effective. This book definitely lives up to turning a novice of mindfulness like myself into an expert of mindfulness. The exercises and concepts presented in this book are easily applicable to everyone's everyday life. 

Thank you Netgalley and Sterling publishing for the ARC in exchange for an honest review. We will definitely consider adding this title for our self help collection at our library. That is why we give this book 5 stars.

My Recommendation

This guide to mindfulness is perfect for those who are completely new to the subject. The authors summoned up the background and the basics of "being present" really well. There are different techniques to calm the mind. The step-by-step guide makes it pretty easy to follow along. I love that Amy mentions different areas related to mindfulness (yoga, meditation, etc...). As the title suggests it is a little bit of everything that is known about mindfulness. I think people who begin their journey by reading this book will be guided very well.
