The Mindfulness Sidekick Amy E Halloran-Steiner

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is profoundly changing the brains of people who have long struggled with depression, and The Mindfulness Sidekick walks alongside TMS patients on their healing journeys, teaching the powerful medicine of mindfulness practice and living well. The Mindfulness Sidekick guides the reader through each phase of their treatment, teaching vital aspects of mental wellness such as tuning into the present moment without judgment, summoning gratitude, adopting clear and kind communication, and planning one's time to contribute to one's mental wellness, all through the lens of mindfulness. The Mindfulness Sidekick offers week-by-week journaling prompts, suggested nature explorations and access to a free private playlist of the author's mindfulness meditations, teachings and activities. Readers will relax into The Mindfulness Sidekick's informal, friendly voice and it's easy-to-use activities. Each chapter's thoughtful journaling prompts will help readers deepen their insight and help bring out their own supportive voice along their recovery journey. Every TMS patient deserves to be well-oriented and accompanied in their TMS treatment, and this guidebook helps readers stay on the path to their healthiest, most meaningful life during and after TMS treatment. The Mindfulness Sidekick is a wonderful complement to TMS treatment, and can also stand alone as a primer in mindfulness, motivating even the most skeptical people to practice mindfulness for their own wellness, regardless of challenges. Come along on this mindful journey!
