The Power of Stillness: Learn Meditation in 30 Days

The Power of Stillness comes as close as any book could to having a teacher by your side as you learn to meditate, sitting with you each day and gently guiding you through each meditation. The book provides an easy to follow 30-day program to learn what meditation is, how it might help you, and most importantly, how to do it. Meditation serves many functions: seeking direction, calming and stress relief, contemplating religious teachings, inspiration for creative endeavors, clarification of life s purpose, delving into our inner selves, healing or coping with health issues. Millions of people now meditate regularly, and many thousands more are being introduced to the practice. Religious leaders, health care workers, and spiritual teachers all recommend meditation. Twelve-step programs recommend quiet contemplation. Although it is often recommended, meditation is rarely taught. Since it is practiced alone and in the privacy of one s own home, few beginners receive clear direction.
