I have been under a lot of stress lately and have been investigating the idea of meditation. I stumbled upon this book and it shone a light on what meditation entails. A lot of people get into meditation, thinking that it will be a cure for all which ails them. This is, more often than not, not the case at all. This books explains that meditation can help to create a calmness in mind, which leads to better decision making in all areas of one's life. It touches on the beginnings of mediation in the east, and its eventual adoption in more recent times in the western world, which is fascinating in itself.Outlined in this book are a few of the various mediation techniques which anybody can begin with just a small window of time each day. I'm going to put the practices contained within this book into action and hopefully set myself on the way to a more peaceful existence.
