Book Reviews of Insight Meditation: A Step-By-Step Course on How to Meditate
Book Review: Very Helpful
Summary: 5 Stars
I started by using a couple of the meditations. I find them soothing; my husband says that when I do one after a stressful day at work, he can see that it calms me down right off. Some time after starting the meditations I began reading the book. I have been through it once and am partway through a second reading. I find it inspiring and can easily imagine continuing this process of re-reading for some time to come as part of my spiritual journey. My favorite meditations are the breath meditation, the walking meditation, and the metta meditation. I did the body sensations one once when I was tense and it was quite helpful. The one on hindrances doesn't seem very helpful as one is probably only experiencing one hindrance at a time, while the meditation walks you through all of them. I have been recommending this book and tapes to friends as it has been so useful to me. I also love Sharon Salzberg's book A Heart as Wide as the World.
