A Mindfulness Guide for the Frazzled

鈥500 years ago no one died of stress; we invented this concept and now we let it rule us. We might have evolved to be able to miraculously balance on seven-inch heels, but as far as our emotional development is concerned we鈥檙e still swimming with the pond scum. If we don鈥檛 advance our more human qualities then we鈥檙e doomed, evolution-wise, to become cyborgs, with an imprint of an Apple where our hearts used to be.鈥 Ruby Wax shows us a scientific solution to these modern problems: mindfulness.
