Wonderful audiobook!

As someone who was completely new to meditation, I found this guide to be incredibly helpful. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, and I appreciated the author's emphasis on taking a gentle approach and not judging yourself for any wandering thoughts. The suggested exercises were simple but effective, and I found myself feeling more centered and relaxed after just a few sessions. Overall, I would definitely recommend this audiobook.

fantastic book for beginners

This book explained a lot of the benefits of meditation in the beginning which I found very motivating and then goes on to explain different ways to meditate. the book is written in an accessible style which elevates it above many other books on the topic which seem overly complicated. One for the library!
