Synopsis

In The Mindful Twenty-Something, the cofounder of the extremely popular Koru Mindfulness program developed at Duke University presents a unique, evidence-based approach to help you make important life decisions with clarity and confidence.
As a twenty-something, you may feel like you are being pulled in dozen different directions. With the daily tumult, busyness, and major life changes you experience as a young adult, you may also be particularly vulnerable to stress and its negative effects. Emerging adulthood, which occurs between the ages of 18 and 29, is a developmental stage of life when you’re faced with important decisions about school, relationships, sex, your career, and more. With so much going on, you need a guide to help you navigate with less stress and more ease.
The Koru Mindfulness program, developed at Duke University and already in use on numerous college campuses—including Harvard, Yale, Princeton, MIT, Dartmouth, and several others—and in treatment centers across the country, is the only evidence-based mindfulness training program for young adults that has been empirically proven to have significant benefits for sleep, perceived stress, and self-compassion. Now, with The Mindful Twenty-Something, this popular program is accessible to all young adults struggling with stress.
With Koru Mindfulness and the practical tools you’ll learn from this acceptance-based, proven-effective approach, you’ll be able to cultivate the compassion and mindfulness skills you need to manage life’s challenges from a calm, balanced center, regardless of what comes your way.

Goodreads review by Sam on October 16, 2024

The inclusion of links to her website was pretty tacky. She used a lot of words to explain very little. It wasn’t too hard to read, and was clearly designed for a young person with no mindfulness experience, written in a less than scholarly manner for the sake of understanding to audiences of lower......more

Read this for a Mindfulness Institute for Emerging Adults 5-week introductory course on teaching mindfulness to young adults. Even though I'm not the intended audience and the book was written in a simple, light style, it had good lessons for anyone interested in learning some mindfulness basics and......more
