Many of us in the modern world are unhappier than they need to be, and mindfulness offers a solution that works. Science and clinical practice have only recently 'discovered' the profound potential of mindfulness-based practices for increasing our wellbeing. However, mindfulness has been practised for thousands of years as an attention-training technique that can reduce physical and psychological suffering and enhance health and happiness. Derived from ancient contemplative practices in many cultures and wisdom traditions, mindfulness practice simply involves directing our attention to what is (reality), rather than to what isn't (our ideas of reality). Mindfulness for Life is written by two experts on mindfulness with many years of personal and clinical experience. The authors have come together to provide both a medical and a psychological perspective on mindfulness and related conditions such as depression and substance abuse. The result is a book that translates the scientific principles underlying mindfulness into a simple, practical and accessible life manual.

The mindfulness trend has become a global phenomenon in a few short years. As more people add the practice of mindfulness to their daily routine and personal toolkit, though, many have lost sight of the practice's roots. With Heartfulness, Dr Stephen McKenzie, a leading mindfulness author and teacher, brings us back to the basics by connecting the heart with mindfulness to become "heartfulness". The paths to a fulfilling life are shown and demonstrated in an approachable, encouraging way. To be "heartful" is to be connected with ourselves and with other people, therefore being truly alive, happy, without stress and at peace. You'll achieve this by following along with chapters on: -Adversity -Humor -Knowledge -Kindness -Love -Hope -Contentment -Courage -Creativity
Heartfulness is filled to the brim with anecdotes, subjects to contemplate, and lots to read and enjoy. This is a gentle and warm book that seeks to bring the reader home to a happy state and proves that mindfulness and like minded practices are neither buzzwords or fads.

Heartfulness: Beyond Mindfulness, Finding Your Real Life

This book investigates the composition of the book of Kings and its implications for the Deuteronomistic History (DH) of which it is a part. McKenzie analyses Kings on the basis of Noth's model of a single author/editor behind the original DH. He contends that the Deuteronomist (Dtr) wrote the series of oracles against the Northern royal houses without utilizing a prior, running prophetic document that some scholars have posited behind Samuel and Kings. He regards many other prophetic stories in Kings, including most of the Elijah and Elisha legends as later additions to the DH, in accord with Noth's recognition that the original DH was frequently supplemented by various writers. McKenzie illustrates Dtr's compositional techniques in a treatment of the accounts of Hezekiah and Josiah in Kings. He tentatively dates Dtr to Josiah's reign but believes that tensions among the many later additions to the work, including the report from Josiah's death on, suggest that they are not the result of systematic editing (e.g., Dtr2). The book offers the most up-to-date survey of research on the DH and the most recent detailed analysis of the lengthy variant version of Jeroboam's reign in LXXB at 1 Kings 12:24a-z. It offers a fresh perspective on the original shape of the DH based on recent scholarship and the author's own critical investigation.
