a simple yet solid exploration of meditation
I loved reading Darren’s Inner Tranquility: A Guide to Seated Meditation book as I have been doing Yoga for years and only recently really dabbled in meditation. I had tried meditating however want to learn more about it’s application and ‘how to do it’. Darren’s book provides a solid yet easy to digest foundation for meditation practice. He also sets it straight by saying.. “It isn’t always enjoyable, and always easy.” He explains the why behind meditation, how one can mediate, our minds and their thought patterns, debunks common myths and finally gives a tangible way to apply everything. He tells everyone to just try it for 30 days and see the effects happen in real time for you and your body. I am about 10 days into this and have already seen the effects on my mind and body :)
I would highly recommend this book for anyone wanting to begin a meditation practice and for those that regularly meditate and want to know more about it to enhance what they are already doing.
Simple but useful
I enjoyed the simplicity of the book. Hoping to work on my meditation practice and believe this will be useful.
A seemingly simple but profound mindfulness technique.
I began reading Inner Tranquility: A Guide to Seated Meditation thinking "I should be meditating." I ended the book thinking "Why on earth don't I meditate?" In addition to a highly accessible guide to starting and maintaining a daily meditation practice, Darren Main lays out a powerful case for how meditation can benefit any person and why the challenge of this seemingly simple but profound mindfulness technique is well worth taking on.
