Daniel J. Siegel's book, Aware, introduces the "Wheel of Awareness," a mindfulness practice.Â
The book uses scientific research and clinical experience to explain the mind's mechanisms, emphasizing the integration of consciousness. The Wheel of Awareness practice involves focusing attention, open awareness, and kind intention to cultivate well-being.Â
Aware includes sections detailing the practice, its neurological basis, and personal stories illustrating its transformative effects. Drawing on quantum physics and contemplative traditions, it also explores the relationship between energy, consciousness, and the nature of reality. Finally, it discusses the Wheel's applicability to various life stages and challenges.
