Know too that there are so many resources available to help you become comfortable with mindfulness. If you like learning in a group setting, there are mindfulness classes offered in many cities throughout the country. There are also books, including Sharon Salzberg’s Real Happiness, that offer great how-to advice on getting started. Many of my clients enjoy mindfulness apps and talks on the topic, such as Tara Brach’s podcasts and the guided practices on the Web site of Dan Harris, author of 10% Happier.
