Poetic description of meditation

I have read this book several times. I have given it to other people. It is POETRY. It is perfect for a beginner or an advance meditation practioner. I practice meditation and it always provides me with reminders and new insights. I would highly recommend it, whatever your religious or spiritual background is. It truly is universal.

Inviting Silence

At first I was put off by the formatting of the text in the middle of the page, but finally fell into the rhythm of the words. This little book offered me the quiet wisdom I was hoping for. Keep it close to you, you'll want to read it often.

Inviting Silence

Gunilla Norris offers wise, gentle and unencumbered encouragement to develop a peaceful practice. She provides beautiful teachings that allow us to connect tenderly with our innermost selves and the world by learning to be still. This is a wonderful book for people beginning to mediate but is also deeply nourishing for those further along in their practice.

"Inviting Silence"

Gunilla Norris' book is incredible. She teaches without teaching. Reading her book is a meditation in and of itself. The book carries you into meditation through her words...It is a soul's journey from noise to silence from beginning to end. When finished you will crave the "silence" she writes about. You'll read it over and over just to make sure you get every last bit of wisdom she has to share. She'll make you believe "silence" is magic. It is a must ! I want more!
