This is an outstanding book both for those who want to begin a regular meditation practice and also for those who have been meditating for some time and now want to increase their physical, psychological and spiritual benefits. Paul Wilson's great gift is to speak to people in a highly approachable, jargon-free way, drawing on his own 30-plus years of meditation success, and passing on only what is genuinely useful. Meditation depends not on "doing" but on "not-doing". Without experiencing "the quiet" that is at the heart of our lives, that is fuelling our lives, we can so easily lose energy and inner stability. Paul Wilson makes it possible to access that quiet place without strain, particular skill or even very much time - no matter what else is happening within or around you.
