Description
"Mindfulness" by Ellen J. Langer (PhD) challenges the assumption that mindfulness requires meditation. Instead, she defines it as the simple act of noticing—and shows how this subtle shift can reshape health, aging, and recovery. Drawing on decades of Harvard research, Langer reveals how present-moment awareness drives real biological change and restores autonomy. This foundational book offers a science-based framework for breaking mental habits and approaching daily decisions with greater clarity, flexibility, and intention.
