There’s no trying in meditation.
If you can breathe, you can meditate. Just as water naturally runs downhill and leaves float naturally to the ground, we are all naturally able to settle into meditation. Meditation doesn’t require trying; rather, meditation comes out of just allowing—not doing, just being.
Whether you’re a complete novice or you’ve "tried it before," veteran meditation teacher Dean Sluyter’s relaxed, down-to-earth approach will help you test-drive a variety of meditative techniques, such as breath, sound, the senses, the sky, and the simple sense of "I," and discover which ones fit you best. You’ll discover that the key to meditation is effortlessness, and find all the practical tips you need for adapting these methods to your own life, as you live it, even for a few minutes a day. And as your life opens to deep happiness, clarity, peace, and creative energy, you’ll be inspired to keep on practicing—naturally.
