On the surface, just another slim volume on how to meditate. Beneath, and when the discussed techniques are actually practiced, simple but profound changes in your consciousness and emotional well-being can occur. One technique in particular is also taught by two self-help programs, The Sedona Method and Avatar, in week-long retreats costing upwards of $2000. Spend a couple grand on the self-help programs or spend $12 on this book; which do you prefer? After Avatar, you return home blissed-out but can easily become "stuck" again, with no take-home materials to consult; at least with this book, you can return again and again to the relevant passages and help work yourself free.
Buddhist meditation techniques described simply for the Western mind.
