Dr. Fred Luskin is director of the Stanford University Forgiveness Project and an associate professor at the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology. He has completed nine research projects on the training and measurement of forgiveness therapy. Dr. Luskin's research demonstrates that learning forgiveness leads to increased physical vitality, enhanced optimism, and improved conflict resolution skills. His research also shows that forgiveness lessens the physical and emotional toll of stress while decreasing hurt, anger, depression, and blood pressure. On the first track of this CD, Dr. Luskin delivers a 45-minute presentation of his nine steps for learning to forgive, a process that makes it possible to move beyond being a victim to a life of improved health and contentment. The second track contains two guided visualizations, including the H.E.A.L. Method for self-forgiveness. The CD comes with a gift certificate that may be used to participate in Dr. Luskin's live, online classes at eMindful.

The Mindfulness Wheel is a tool for bringing awareness and attentiveness into your life every day. It is a daily reminder to wake up and appreciate each moment for what it is. The Mindfulness Wheel is one way to train the mind to become more aware, more purposeful, more awake. Place the beautifully designed laminated card with the image of the Wheel in a conspicuous place---your desk, your kitchen counter, your bed stand---then put a glass bead (included) on one of the eight action areas---called "Stations"--- of the Wheel and focus your attention and activities on the message there.
Throughout your day, the Wheel and the position of your stone will remind of how you can be more deliberate and present in any activity.
The Stations of the Wheel are:
- Smile
- Arrive
- Listen
- Slow Down
- Attend Tasks
- Essence
- See Something New
- Breathe
In addition, there are three "Paths" you can follow as you circle the wheel. These paths are different perspectives on the eight Stations of the Wheel. Place another glass bead, also included, on one of the Paths and then interpret your Station of the wheel through the lens of that Path. The three paths are:
Sun Path - When you are on the Sun Path, you are exploring the simplest interpretation of each Station of the Wheel. These activities are the easiest and most direct.
Moon Path - When you follow the Moon Path, you explore deeper, more profound aspects of the Wheel. Often, this Path will ask you to be reflective or introspective.
Star Path - The Star Path has no limits. Explore this Path with openness and a light but adventurous heart.
With eight Stations of the Wheel and three paths of interpretation, there are 24 stages in a Grand Circuit of the Wheel.
You will receive a beautifully designed card containing both the Wheel and a Path area, a comprehensive 38-page softcover book that describes each Station of the Wheel and how each Path influences its experience, and two glass beads for marking your place on the Wheel and the Path.
If you have been looking for a way to increase your appreciation of each moment, to be fully alive and engaged in the present, The Mindfulness Wheel awaits.
The Mindfulness Wheel is available for $15.95 plus $3.99 shipping/handling from Amazon.com.
