This Book is a MUST have.

Jan Purser has taken the misunderstood and to most, unknown, and made it accessible to all. Beautifully illustrated and written in such a way that anyone can understand the art of meditation. I have recommended this little beauty to many of my friends, searching for that "inner peace".

Excellent Meditation Book

What is meditation? According to this excellent book by Jan Purser: "Meditation is very simply the ability to focus on one thing only, allowing thoughts and inner chatter to fall away, leaving a deep feeling of stillness and peace...Meditation is not an escape from life or reality. In fact, it is the opposite. When you meditate, you don't cease to hear sound, act responsibly, or feel emotions. You become even more alert and focused, and less reactive, but more responsive with emotional issues."Are you a candidate for the benefits of mediation?
