[Munirah]

كتاب قيم ..
خيارات كثيرة وطرق مختلفه للتآمل
لقيت اجابات لآسئله تروادني

[Fady Abu-zayed]

لا شك بأن التأمل من أقدم و أهم الوسائل لتنقية العقل و النفس ، و قد دعت الاديان السماوية و علماء النفس الى ممارسة التأمل بشكل دوري للتخلص من متاعب الحياة و الوصول الى اجابت عن الاسئلة التي ترواد الانسان منذ ولادته ، أبدعت الدكتورة ( ستيفاني كليمنت ) بتفنيد و توضيح اهم طرق التأمل بشكل سلسل و مبسط يتيح للمبتدئين بأن يتعلموا فن التأمل من الصفر حتى الاتقان ، اهم فوائد التأمل هي تطوير التركيز ، ارخاء الجسد و العقل ، التخلص من العادات و الافكار السيئة و تحديد اهدافك و التخلص من مخاوفك ، لذلك انصح من لم يجرب التأمل حتى الان بأن يبدأ فورا

[Dizo]

Fácil de leer, con buenas meditaciones que son fáciles de hacer, explica todo de forma clara y concisa.

[Rubi Galvan]

Meditation for Begginners:Techniques for Awareness, Mindfulness and Relaxation is a great book filled with many techniques of meditation.

[Brianna]

A great, simple introduction to meditation. I learned some basic meditation in High School and it helped me tremendously. I've since fallen out of the habit and this book was a great read to help me pick it up again. What I love the most about this book is that it reminds one that meditation can fit into the everyday and that it is a good exercise for our minds and bodies. I missed the sense of self, freedom and awareness meditation brought to my life. I'm enjoying finding that again. Of course there were some sections that don't fit into my life, but the book was written so you could take what you want and to what level you wish.

كتاب تقني يتناول كل شيء بالتفصيل عن التأمل و اغراضه سواء كانت الحياة بوعي اكثر و الاسترخاء او العلاج و انواعه المختلفة ، وفوائده ، و كيف يمكنك ان تتقنه في فترة وجيزة .
وهو كتاب مناسب للمبتدئين فعلا لانه يعرض البدايات و المقدمات الضرورية على غرار كتب اخرى فلسفية وجدتها .
قراءة هذا الكتاب لوحده لن تكون كافية طبعا ، لكن هذه المرحلة لا يمكن القفز عليها ، يجب التعرف على المباديء الاساسية لاي شيء قبل الانجراف الى شيء اعمق

[Buck Wilde]

A decent, informational read that introduces you to a battery of different meditation methods and courteously holds off talking about "the will of the Universe" with a capital U and "messages from the archangels" until the last chapter.

A science, not a novel , kind of yoga and self help which I dont know how much will going to help me but at this age looks cool to begin with when I am really messed up.. Great

[Basim Mahmoud]

Talking about most types of meditation
with a previous warning in the beginning of the book from the misuse or the harmful results of what that book says ! :D

[Daniel Greider]

Good info but really hard to get into since there's so much information to take in just with the first chapter.

[Ravi Kumar Dandapani]

A complete guide for people wishing to master this skill. Very systematic and needs to be possessed to benefit

[Samra]

It's an all around great beginning book on meditation. instructions were not complicated and author didn't gear it towards a specific religion.

[Asem]

very Good

[Ameen]

كتاب بسيط يصلح كمقدمة في التامل

[Mona Al]

Great book and lovely techniques about meditation.
I'm working on applying all types and enjoying inner peace. Amazing author with easy writing style.

[Obeida Takriti]

يبسط الكاتب بعض أساليب التأمل بطريقة جميلة ولكن هناك كتب أغنى منه بكثير

[Ester Lole]

Ahí se quedó. Olvidado.
