De: Light Watkins

Narrado por: Light Watkins

From one of America’s top meditation teachers and mindfulness experts comes a revolutionarily simple approach to everyday practice—especially if you don’t think you have the time or the patience.

Imagine you’re sitting on a cushion with your legs crossed, ready to tap into unlimited joy. There’s just one problem: You can’t get comfortable (let alone still), and your head is full of way too many thoughts.

The problem is not with meditation, or you, though—the issue may be with your approach.

When properly understood and practiced, meditation should feel easy, calming, and comfortable. In Bliss More, maverick instructor Light Watkins provides the tools for making it E.A.S.Y. (Embrace, Accept, Surrender, Yield), dispels the biggest myths and misunderstandings, and shares real-world tips and straight talk for hacking into this ancient practice. The result: a happier and healthier you, inside and out. Watkins also shares candid testimonials from people whose lives have been enriched through his method, and extensive resources for transforming a daily chore into an enjoyable activity. Even the biggest skeptic will look forward to sitting for meditation every day.

Whether you’re a novice or experienced practitioner, Bliss More will shed light on the path to a clearer mind, better sleep, and more bliss in everyday life.

A very practical approach to meditation

My first guided mediation was by Light and I now considered myself lucky to have a teacher like him. For a long time I always heard people talk about meditation as if it was some kind of mythical art of zen. Not until I met light did I realize meditation was a much simpler and more obtainable practice.

For anyone looking to get started in meditation, his book goes into detail on how and why the method he uses is both practical and useful.

Super effective meditation method

I've been meditating for about 6 years but never achieved the level of relaxation that I did almost immediately with this book. I really didn't know what that kind of relaxation felt like before. Also it has the wonderful advantage of setting you on a course to develop an engrained and strong habit of meditation quickly.

The experience

Once you get into this book you will listen how he debunks most myths about meditation and how mediation works properly! Changed my entire perception on meditating and have adopted a new way of life. Thank you light!

WOW. It really works!

I've been a novice meditator for years and recently decided to add a second daily meditation to compliment my morning sit. I found Light on insta and enjoy his daily dose emails, so I thought I'd give his book a listen to see if I could tap into more bliss.

The answer is YES. WOW. Light's approach is very thoughtful, thorough, and E A S Y. I'm getting so much bliss out of meditation - and just generally feel much more chill all around.

If you're a beginner, good for YOU. You'll LOVE this book!

If you're a regular meditator looking to go deeper and try another approach, you'll LOVE this book.

It's really enjoyable and full of insight. Plus, Light reads it to you! What more could one ask for?

Superb!

Finally, someone explained meditation and gave instruction in a way that made sense. I'm on my second listen and I'm sure there will be a third. I am so inspired! Thank you Mr. Watkins.

Good start

If you are starting to think about adapting meditation into your life, this is a great resource. If you already meditate and are looking for a fresh start, be open-minded and this book will take you places.

Really helped minimize my anxiety about starting a meditation practice

I loved Light’s pragmatic approach to teaching meditation as well as his relatable and EASY framework for getting started.

Changed my Meditation. 100% yes! Read it!

I always knew that I wanted to do meditation but it felt so tedious and every time I would go to sit down and meditate I would be worried that I wouldn’t do it right, I didn’t have the right body position, or I didn’t have enough time or or or or or.... since reading this book I have been meditating consistently and without judging each individual meditation I have noticed an overall difference in my mood and outlook outside of my meditations. Another thing I really loved about the book is it gives me a lot of background/knowledge on the brain and why certain things in meditation work or cause you to overthink things. All in all it is made my meditation experience so much more enjoyable and something that I feel confident in now. If you’re curious about meditation I would 100% recommend reading this book!!

Life-Changing

This book is incredible. I started listening to this because acupuncturist recommended it sure to my high stress job. After listening to this book and implementing his techniques, my stress levels (and heartburn and acid reflux) lowered and eventually disappeared. It's a simple method but takes dedication, totally worth it. Thanks for sharing your gift Light!

Honest Approach

Accessible approach to meditation that just might stick this time. My gut says yes. Let’s begin.
