Thoughts for Travelers


If travelling makes you feel fearful or unsettled, Dr. Elisha Goldstein’s Mindfulness Meditations for the Anxious Traveler will be a great help. The book is divided into 46 concise sections that focus on one specific thought or practice. The author explains that there is a space between stimulus and response that can be used to make a choice. The response will depend on the choice. He offers suggestions about how to recognize this space and make beneficial choices. The book also includes a step-by-step story about boarding an airplane, for those who fear flying. Goldstein is the author of The Now Effect and the Mindful Solutions Program and is a frequent contributor to the Huffington Post. He has been a leader in mindfulness psychology and maintains a private practice in Los Angeles. DB
