What is meditation? How do you do it? Why is it necessary?
Sometimes we just need to stop, take time out, put things into perspective and regain a sense of balance.
Sometimes we just need to do nothing, and instead simply be. This has always been the case. But now it would seem to be more important than ever.
And that's where meditation comes in.
Meditation is not about stopping the mind from thinking, but the cultivation of awareness. It's not about emptying the mind, learning to see things more clearly: the way they are rather than as we think they should or shouldn't be.
Meditation enables us to live life more fully, with intention and compassion. More than just a how to manual, this is, above all, a book about why meditation matters.
