Introduction

Welcome the this guide to mindfulness in the life cycle of the lawyer - from law school to law practice. This guide was prepared as a resource to the Spring 2015 meeting of the Law Librarians of New England. Researching this guide was enlightening. It lead me to look at resources on spirituality, meditation, stress reduction, Zen, etc. in legal education and law practice. Searches for this guide used the term mindfulness and the results focus on that concept. The resources in the guide serve as a historical guide to earlier works cited therein. Peace.
