Publisher's summary

Let's get this out of the way: Meditation is not a religion, a cult, or a set of beliefs. (Although admittedly, many religions and cults do make use of meditation. But they eat food and drink water too, right?)

To meditate, you do not have to give up your religion or belief system, nor do you have to subscribe to another. In fact, you don't have to give up anything except a few minutes of your time each day.

Meditation refers to a set of practices that will, simply put, help you focus and calm your mind. There is no one way to do it, nor is there a right way or a wrong way. The best way to meditate is by doing whatever works for you.

That said, meditation is not about vegging out in front of your television, your computer screen, or game console - never mind how relaxing you find them or how much they help you relieve stress. One of the many reasons people meditate is to actually sharpen and train their minds, not to let it turn to mush by getting distracted or by being dependent on external stimuli.

Of course, there are countless other benefits that come with meditation - it reduces stress, increases happiness, slows the process of aging, increases self-awareness, and boosts memory...just to name a few.

Whatever your reasons to begin meditation, this audiobook will prove invaluable by guiding you through the different forms and stages of meditation. This audiobook explains the science behind meditation, how you can persevere through challenges, and how to schedule your sessions. It also teaches you how to improve your breathing and posture and thereby ultimately perform meditation successfully.

So, if you're just an average Joe or Jane who wants to experience all the physical and mental benefits that meditation has to offer - or at least see what all the hype is about - then let's get started!
