BEYOND MINDFULNESS

Stephan Bodian

The Direct Approach to Lasting Peace, Happiness, and Love

¦ The author's Meditation for Dummies (ISBN: 978-1119251163) is now in its fourth edition with more than 300,000 copies in print, and has been translated into seven languages.
¦ Mindfulness and meditation have exploded in popularity, appearing on the cover of Time magazine and being adopted by corporations like Google and other Fortune 500 companies. According to the National Institutes of Health, 18 million adults in the US meditate.
Written by best-selling author, meditation expert, psychotherapist, and spiritual teacher Stephan Bodian, this book takes readers beyond familiar mindfulness practices by offering guided meditations and direct pointers that invite them to realize their natural state of inherent wakefulness and peace.
Mindfulness has permeated our modern lives, and with good reason—it's been proven to boost mood, reduce stress, improve health, and maximize performance. But in our achievement-oriented culture, the practice of mindfulness can feel laborious and mechanical, like one more task on our endless todo list. What if we could let go of effort and struggle and relax back into the happiness and ease that is our birthright?
Beyond Mindfulness offers teachings and practices based on the direct approach to spiritual awakening that take readers beyond the mechanics of being mindful to the non-dual dimension of being, where the separation between self and other reveals itself to be a painful but seductive illusion.
With this book, readers will learn how to move beyond mindfulness into awakened awareness and discover that the love, compassion, wholeness, health, and happiness they've been seeking were there all along.

Stephan Bodian is a pioneer in the integration of Eastern wisdom and Western psychology, and an internationally recognized expert on meditation and mindfulness. His books include Wake Up Now, Buddhism for Dummies, and the best-selling Meditation for Dummies.
A licensed psychotherapist as well as a spiritual teacher, he leads classes, workshops, and retreats using the direct approach to spiritual realization and offers counseling and mentoring to people worldwide. Bodian resides in Tucson, AZ.
