Summary

Playful Mindfulness brings together wisdom from the worlds of mindfulness (paying attention to the present moment with curiosity and kindness) and improvisation (making life up courageously as you go along) so listeners can find greater confidence, calm, and connection.

  • Do you long to express that creative project or idea but tell yourself you’re not good or clever or funny enough, so why even try?
  • Do you dream of a wide-open life filled with moments of wonder, delight, and surprise but find yourself trapped in routine and smothered by stress?
  • Do you yearn for deep, meaningful connection with those around you but feel yourself ever more isolated by social media and modern technology?

Hope is on the way.

In this audiobook, Ted DesMaisons takes your hand and leads you on a beautiful, surprising and unruly adventure into the lands where mindfulness and improvisation overlap. There, you’ll discover the same freedom, ease, and joy that thousands of his students at Stanford and elsewhere have found for themselves.

Quite interesting listen.

Perhaps a little overly long as was a bit of a struggle to finish, for me. The notion of improvisation still appalls me, but was more intrigued about how to apply and combine mindfulness and responding to life and others in a general way from this audio book. There were 'takeaways' and exercises, pretty much all of which I have now forgotten! Perhaps I will listen again sometime as I do think there's some good stuff in there! The narrators voice sounded like he needed a throat sweet and a good cough to clear his throat sometimes, which didnt help the long listen. Perhaps best take one chapter at a time and do the exercises before moving on.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
