Reviews

[Grant]

I think it feels more accurate and appropriate to call this an Audible Original rather than a book, per se: essentially, it's sometimes brief connective tissue between medium-length guided meditations. It's among the most condensed options available for Harris' style of approachable Buddhism and meditation, but there's a lot more helpful depth to be found elsewhere, including Harris' podcast and other books.

[Donna Brown]

I am just learning how to meditate. I've tried in the past and failed.
I am now meditating and I love the voice when they do the sessions.
I understand that my mind will wander and how to bring myself back.
Anyone really can learn and this has taught me so much.
Highly recommended for the beginner.

[Craig Carignan]

A subject that I am deeply interested in.

nothing new

[Andrew R Hull]

Very basic primer but a good start for someone new or curious about meditation. The guided meditations (covering the 4-5 main meditation themes are decent.

[Joni McNeal]

I guess I shouldn’t have been so surprised by how much actual meditation there was in the audiobook.
