more than a beginners book

This book got me off my tush and back on my tush, so to speak. I've been meditating for a while but got out of the habit and forgot why it was important. This book really made a difference in my practice. I highly recommend it. Very readable, simple, but not simplistic. Good stuff for people who don't have time to read a million books on the subject.

Great for beginners and procrastinators!

This is a wonderful book for those who feel "too rushed to meditate". It introduces a simple and easy method of meditation that is practical and inspiring... leaving no room for excuses! The author writes in a friendly and approachable style, and shows us how we can benefit in all kinds of brief and tiny ways, from even sporadic meditating. Exceptionally practical and inspiring - particularly good for novice meditators who would like to "kick start" their practice

Simple Guide

Meditation is new to me. I've been kind of doing my own thing and meditating the way I imagined you should do it without any direction (I had in mind that the point was to get away from direction!). I ran across this small book at Whole Foods and am happy to say that I would recommend it as a straightforward guide to what meditation is and different ways to practice it. Within the first 20 pages or so you'll get the basics and be ready to get going.
