Compassionate Mindful Inquiry in Therapeutic Practice by Karen Atkinson

A guide for practitioners who are seeking to integrate the skills of mindfulness into their work. The author offers information on the process of eliciting information in a therapeutic context (the process of inquiry), as well as practical guidance for those incorporating mindfulness teaching into their professional practice.

This book is a wonderful and practical guide to the process of mindful inquiryKaren's experience and wisdom are weaved eloquently through the pages of what is for many a demanding and difficult subject. A must for all those who are teaching or training to teach mindfulness. -- Gary Heads, Mindfulness Teacher and Author
This is a book that you read and can 'hear' the author's voice in your head: it reassures and guides. Karen Atkinson manages to convey clarity for practitioners in their journey of helping clients, recounting years of personal experience of Mindful Compassion, and in the teaching of it to others. A welcome addition is the section on neuroscience, which deftly combines laymen's terms with an abundance of useful metaphors throughout. Would heartily recommend to all those who want to further their understanding and practice. -- Dr Arabella Bowen, Consultant Counselling Psychologist
This is a clear and practical introduction to an important therapeutic aspect of mindfulness. Chapters 4 and 5 in particular are full of tips and reminders relevant to all of us who teach, whatever our discipline, and the neuroscience chapter is beautifully accessible. -- Dr. Graham Burns, yoga teacher and teacher trainer
