Authoritative, beautifully written and much-loved by its readers, Mindfulness: A Practical Guide to Finding Peace in a Frantic World has become a word-of-mouth bestseller and global phenomenon. The meditation course contained within the book has formed the basis for thousands of mindfulness courses around the UK, has been used in numerous research trials, and has been adapted for use in healthcare systems, institutions and businesses worldwide.
Professor Mark Williams and Dr. Danny Penman will join us to celebrate the launch of a refreshed edition of their book and to mark 15-years since first publication.
Mark and Danny will tell us why they think mindfulness is effective for treating mental and physical ill-health and discuss why the practice of mindfulness suddenly became a mainstream phenomenon.
They’ll also discuss how mindfulness can help us navigate troubling times with a sense of hope, anticipation and even vigour.
We’d be delighted for you to join us for this special in-person event in Oxford, UK hosted by Claire Kelly, our Director of Teaching and Training. Mark and Danny will also answer questions from the audience.
