Review Quotes:
"With an emotional roller coaster as complex and misunderstood as depression, The Mindfulness Workbook for Depression provides as much clarity of technique as it does hope for a positive outcome. In concise, clear language, Yoon Im Kane distills invaluable practices to integrate left brain with right, head with heart, doing with being, and sadness/fear with joy. The streamlining of her own lived experience with her basic suggested blueprints adds a particular poignancy to the strength and wisdom of her approach. This book belongs in the working library of every mental health professional and in the hands of anyone coping with the weight and/or paralysis of depression. I leave my experience with this book grateful for its lessons and eager to keep applying its impact in my own life." --Khleber Chapman Attwell, M.D., M.P.H., Former Clinical Director of Medical Student Mental Health Service, Adjunct Clinical Assistant Professor of Psychiatry, and Author of 100 Questions and Answers About Anxiety
