Interesting, Useful, Simple

This small, interesting, "How to" book is only 64 pages long. It briefly offers simple explanations on the history and benefits of meditation. Then it suggests several styles of meditation and ends with offering several selected meditations for specific life situations such as relaxation, health, stress reduction, etc. It does not tie meditation with any particular religion, but offers a more clinical approach.The book is a quick read. It probably is more the type of book one might find lying on a coffee table than a book for serious study. However, if you are interested in meditation, but worry that you may be sucked in to some religious slant, this book will give you the nuts and bolts without the religious slant. It might even make you wonder if some of the deep religious experiences people profess are more natural than people would like to believe.
