From the UMass site you can follow the links to a variety of places - I found where there was even a list of courses offered in my area. FMichael writes much more prolifically on the subject - find one of his posts and click on his name and then you can find his older posts. He provides the name of the founder of the Mindfulness movement Jon Zabat-Kin (or something similar), and his best books on the subject. My therapist recommended another book on the subject which I ordered from Amazon - "The Mindfulness Solution to Pain," by Jackie Gardner-Nix. Basically, mindfulness helps you relax and pay more attention to how you respond to the pain in your body. Instead of tensing up and fighting it, it encourages you to feel it, explore it, and accept it. The biggest impact for me has been sleep - I am able to relax my body much better than ever before and fall asleep after waking repeatedly throughout the night from pain.

Have a nice evening, XXOXO Sandy
