Dr. Ruth Buczynski:
Hello everyone. Let’s get started. I’m Dr. Ruth Buczynski, a licensed psychologistand president of the
National Institute for the Clinical Application of Behavioral Medicine
.We’re your hosts for this series on Mindfulness. Thanks so much for joining us tonight and for all thenights that you’ve been with us as part of this series.This is the sixth and last, open session of our worldwide series for practitioners on the Clinical Applications
of Mindfulness. Next week, we begin the rst of two bonus calls for the Gold subscribers.Throughout the ve weeks so far, there have been 101 different countries represented. We’re so excited to bring the world of practitioners together in this community. We did check with Google analytics to see if
we could come up with a number of exactly how many have listened so far and how many unique listeners
we’ve had. They’re reporting that number to be 18,000 or a little bit over. We think that might be just a
bit high…and I don’t want to guess because I could be wrong and I dont have a way to prove any number.I do know that last week we had 3,232 listeners. Here are some of the countries that were participating
in the call. There were 6 people from Argentina, 1 practitioner from Bermuda, 1 from the DominicanRepublic, 1 from Greece, 28 from Israel, 19 from the Netherlands, 2 from Romania, 2 from Bulgaria, 1
from the Philippines, and 3 from South Africa.In addition, we had several thousand people from the United States and let me just tell you a few of the
states: 81 from Pennsylvania, 67 from Oregon, 6 from Idaho, 57 from Georgia, 4 from Arkansas, and 1
from Alaska.So, no matter where you’re calling from, state or country, we’re so glad that you’re part of our worldwidecommunity.We also represent a wide range of practitioners. We’re physicians, nurses, psychologists, social workers,dentists, chiropractors, body workers, dietitians, occupational therapists, physical therapists, and stressmanagement consultants. We represent a wide, wide range of practitioners and no matter what your profession is, we’re glad that you’re part of this call.I again want to encourage you to keep checking back on the comment board. That’s another part of our worldwide community and an important one where you can see all the different ways people are applyingwhat they’re hearing each night.My guest today is one of our favorite speakers – Dr. Daniel Siegel. He is a physician and Clinical Professor
of Psychiatry at the UCLA School of Medicine in Los Angeles. He is a prolic writer. Most recently, in
January, he published a book called
Mindsight: The New Science of Personal Transformation
, and evenmore recently than that, a book called
The Mindful Therapist.
