How to live life in a hectic world

I can't meditate for hours on end to have some peace of mind to live in this world but I can find 15 minutes three times a week to do this. I can also do brief meditations as I shift from one activity to another. This book has taught me how to do that. I am very grateful to the authors for writing this book and hope that in the future they will write more. Other recommended books? Thich Nhat Hanh's The Miracle of Mindfulness, Jonathan Carroll's White Apples and Charles DeLint's The Little Country.

Meditation - Down to Earth

this must be the best book on meditation I have ever read. It shows different techniques (short & long ones)that can easily get integrated into our busy lifes. Without forcing any kind of religious views on the reader this book shows how to be able to cope and improve our daily (western style) life. In simple, clearly written chapters one gets instructions and examples on how to train the mind and achieve better health, inner peace and many other goals which are up to the reader. I can recommend this book to anyone who is interested in meditation - from beginner to advanced.

Wise, Peaceful, Amazing, easy to understand - MUST BUY!

I am actually luck enough to be a patient of Dr. Arpaia and this book is RIGHT ON TARGET! It is so helpful, easy to read, easy to understand, easy to impliment - very wise!

Enriching Your Life with Meditation

Everyone now understands the value of regular exercise. This book reveals mediation as nothing more than exercise for the mind and makes it about as mysterious as going for a morning jog. It does an outstanding job of showing us Westerners how to integrate meditation into our hectic lives without having to go to a monestary. It also does an excellent job of explaining the kinds of practical benefits you can expect from meditation, and how to go about achieving them. I would consider this the best book I have ever seen for people new to mediation, and the more experienced will find plenty to expand their understanding.

Practical guide for meditation

I've read several books on meditation. This is the first one that offers practical methods for achieving real results. Also offers several interesting applications including specific techniques for improving your health.
