Jon Kabat-Zinn Quote
Meditace je opravdu jediná lidská činnost, ve které se nesnažíte dostat někam jinam, ale prostě si dovolíte zůstat tam, kde jste, a takoví, jací jste. Je to hořká medicína, která se špatně polyká, když se vám nelíbí, kde jste a co se kolem vás děje, ale v takových případech je její užívání obzvlášť užitečné.

About Jon Kabat-Zinn
Jon Kabat-Zinn (born Jon Kabat, June 5, 1944) is an American professor emeritus of medicine and the creator of the 'Stress Reduction Clinic' and the 'Center for Mindfulness in Medicine, Health Care, and Society' at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. Kabat-Zinn was a student of Zen Buddhist teachers such as Philip Kapleau, Thich Nhat Hanh, and Seung Sahn, and a founding member of Cambridge Zen Center. His practice of hatha yoga, Vipassanā and appreciation of the teachings of Soto Zen and Advaita Vedanta led him to integrate their teachings with scientific findings. He teaches mindfulness, which he says can help people cope with stress, anxiety, pain, and illness. The stress reduction program created by Kabat-Zinn, mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), is offered by medical centers, hospitals, and health maintenance organizations, and is described in his book Full Catastrophe Living.
