Book Reviews of Guided Meditations for Busy People
Book Review: Meditation Made Easy
Summary: 5 Stars
In today's society, some of us are finding it harder & harder to lend ourselves to healthy practices. Whether it be in Body (eating good things, exercising for that 20 minute minimum), Mind (reading the classics you promised yourself that you would, learning a new language, or increasing your mental skills) or Spirit (completing a daily 30 minute meditation, delving into new methods of expressing belief, or attending a religious service). We just don't have the time. And all the clichés & platitudes regarding `making time' just grind on our already full agendas.
Not wanting to give up any of the subtle balances of our life and knowing that the Body/Mind/Spirit triad does make up the essence of who-we-are, we look for ways to keep everything intact and in working order. Hence, it was with a great deal of anticipation that I received this CD for review.
There are nine guided meditations on the CD, each one 3 to 9 minutes in length. They are powerful in and of themselves. If you only have time for one or two... so be it. You will walk away more relaxed, more in tune with your Higher Self, & less stressed.
I was so pleased by the voice of Bodhipaksa.. There is a faint Scottish burr to his timbre that simply `rests easy' on your ears. I found myself relaxing immediately just from the sound of his comforting voice. This gentleman teaches meditation courses internationally (...)
He has several CD's released on guided meditations. I look forward to hearing them as well, but for now this is my favorite.
I highly recommend this enlightening and truly helpful CD to all our online friends.
Once you listen to `Grounding the Mind', then `Opening the Mind', you will understand the power of meditation!
Happy Listening.
Summary of Guided Meditations for Busy People
If you feel the need to learn meditation but you find that the idea of finding 30 or 40 minutes to meditate is itself stressful, this CD is for you. Short "power meditations" such as these - between three and nine minutes in length - can be highly beneficial for busy people. Each practice teaches a specific and powerful technique for quickly transforming the mind, encouraging the rapid development of calmness, spaciousness, and relaxation. Additionally, by practicing these meditations you'll learn attitudes and skills that can be used throughout the day in any activity you're involved in, bringing more mindfulness and creativity into daily life. You'll notice benefits from repeated practice, and although daily practice is ideal, whatever you can manage will be of benefit. Doing even a small amount of meditation is better than doing none.Meditations Books
