"Mindfulness is better than Chocolate" by David Michie, PhD

I listened to this book as an audio book CD while driving around in my car.  The basic premise is how wonderful mindfulness is and what the practical benefits of the practice are.  Michie discusses how meditation is difficult but, once attained, can produce immense results for mental health.  Meditation can reduce stress, improve relationships, calm anxiety, and lead to a more positive outlook on life.  The latest research on mindfulness is cited, along with several fascinating studies on psychology.  While I don't consider myself a "meditator" per se, I did learn a lot from this book.
