As a result, thinking is often taken, unnecessarily, to  be something misguided or evil. This approach is misguided, says Jason  Siff. In fact, if we allow thoughts to arise and become mindful of the  thoughts themselves, we gain tranquillity and insight just as in other  methods without having to reject our natural mental processes. And by  observing the thoughts themselves with mindfulness and curiosity, we can  learn a good deal about ourselves in the process.","brand":"Shambhala","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43405084426495,"sku":"9781611800432","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781611800432_s600x595.jpg?v=1781542099","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781611800432","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
