I found that this book both clarified what meditation is and provided clear steps on how to go about it. Firstly, I loved the assertion that meditation essentially involves training the mind. This debunks the idea that meditation is purely spiritual. For people who are interested in learning to meditate in order to improve day-to-day focus, this shift is vital. In fact, I would say that the strength of this book is precisely in demystifying meditation and specifying how it actually benefits our everyday lives. By positioning the benefits in terms of achieving goals, conquering fears, letting go of the past and so forth, it is evident that we all have something to gain from meditation.
