​Leading psychologists, meditation teachers, and best-selling authors explain how mindfulness can help us to create relationships that are more healthy, vibrant, genuine, and fulfilling.​

In this collection of writings, readers learn how mindfulness can be

brought to bear in our relationships to increase intimacy, strengthen

communication, and help us find greater fulfillment. In recent years,

scientists have discovered that mindfulness can reduce stress, improve

mood, and enhance our sense of well-being.

Topics in

this collection include how to open your heart and develop

loving-kindness for yourself and others, improve communication

through mindful speech and deep listening, notice and counteract destructive patterns, and discover how intimate relationships can

become a rich form of spiritual practice.

Chapters and contributors include the following

Zen teacher Thich Nhat Hanh on what mindfulness is and why it lies at the heart of real love, psychotherapist David Richo on finding a partner, psychotherapist and meditation teacher Tara Brach on the power of forgiveness, Rabbi Harold Kushner on striving to give love rather than receive it, novelist Jane Hamilton on marital meltdown-and recovery, meditation teacher Susan Piver on the value of heartbreak, psychologist John Welwood on relationships as a path of personal and spiritual growth.

Reviews for Right Here With You: Mindfulness for Connection, Communication, and Deepening Our Relationships

“What does ‘mindful love’ look like? How does it feel to be a ‘mindful lover’? Andrea Miller and the editors at Lion's Roar bring us meaningful and emotionally satisfying answers to these questions from some of the most widely-respected teachers and writers on the subject. This pithy volume will enlarge your understanding of what real love is and show you how you can experience it in your own relationship. The authors included in this compilation are more than just teachers of the art of love: they are the companions on the path who offer their own experiences to smooth our way.” —Spirituality & Health
