la réduction du stress. Ses méthodes, fondées sur les techniques bouddhiques de la méditation et de la pleine conscience, obtiennent très vite des succès remarquables, tant auprès de grands malades dont les souffrances sont enfin apaisées qu'auprès de victimes de troubles psychiques qui reprennent goût à la vie. Mais le programme du Dr Kabat-Zinn propose aussi des applications préventives, comme la création d'une consultation pour les minorités urbaines défavorisées, ou l'élaboration d'un travail avec des prisonniers sur la maîtrise de leur agressivité.

À ceux-là, toujours plus nombreux, il offre ce petit livre de sagesse qui ne se veut pas une méthode, mais une introduction à la pleine conscience, un livre désormais devenu un classique dans le monde entier.
