Maggiori informazioni sul libro
This comprehensive handbook presents a Zen perspective on essential aspects of daily living, exploring how Zen teachings inform various key topics in behavioral health. It discusses the applications of meditation and mindfulness in therapeutic contexts, particularly within cognitive-behavioral therapies. Key Zen constructs such as self, body, desire, and acceptance are outlined and integrated with Western health frameworks, pathology, meaning-making, and healing. An interdisciplinary panel, including Zen masters designated as roshi, examines the intellectual tensions between Zen, mindfulness, and psychotherapy, focusing on rationality, language, and well-being goals. The handbook features firsthand accounts from practitioners living Zen in everyday life and applying its teachings in diverse settings. Topics include Zen practices in jails, Zen koans and parables, a Zen perspective on desire and attachment, the adaptation of Zen to behavioral healthcare, and the use of Zen principles for trauma survivors. This resource is invaluable for researchers, clinicians, and graduate students in clinical psychology, public health, cultural studies, language philosophy, behavioral medicine, and Buddhist studies.
