New author offers hope to 40 million adults suffering from anxiety with step-by-step mindfulness meditation techniques and real-life examples

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn., Aug. 10, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Spiwe Jefferson, CMP, JD, had a revelation while writing "Mindful in 5," her first in the book series. Millions of adult Americans are stressed. Anxiety-based disorders are now the most common mental health concern in the United States.* What if there was a way to help busy, anxious professionals reduce stress, unlock their inner strength, and overcome the challenges of daily life with deeper calm and equanimity?

"We have collectively experienced unprecedented stressors, including the global pandemic, war, and worsening climate conditions. In the explosion of fear, stress, and loneliness, many people are searching for healthy, cost-effective solutions that will help them survive and thrive in a complex, interconnected world," Jefferson says.

Relatable, captivating characters, insightful stories, and journal reflections guide those desiring a better life to be consistently present and realize inner peace even during challenging times, starting with just five minutes a day.

In her own quest to attain the benefits of mindfulness, most books that Jefferson found offered an abstract exploration of the subject. She wrote "Mindful in 5: Meditations for People with No Time" (published by Archway Publishing) as an example-based, step-by-step roadmap that empowers readers to translate mindfulness meditation concepts into action that will help them reduce stress, build optimism, and improve overall well-being.

Based on scientifically proven techniques,** "Mindful in 5" utilizes three distinct "seasons" — Dawn, Day, and Dark — that meet readers where they are. They can progress by deep reflection, emerging into reframed perspectives.

When asked what she wants readers to take away from the book, Jefferson said, "Mindfulness meditation won't solve your problems. But with consistent practice, anyone can master it to improve their general outlook and overall quality of life. Set your intention to live and work to your highest and best purpose, starting with just five minutes a day."
