Practical Meditation: Spiritual Meditation for the Mind

Description

In today's increasingly frenetic environment, people are searching for ways to develop tolerance, balance and power over their thoughts. Practical Meditation provides a compilation of inspirational passages, exercises and mantras that, when practiced over time, bring readers a sense of clarity, self-awareness and peace of mind. They will achieve a deeper knowledge of themselves, thus allowing them to make better decisions and interact with people in a more balanced, giving and loving way. Brief chapters cover themes including: self-awareness, controlling thoughts, karma and achieving soul-consciousness. By becoming familiar with these concepts and practicing the corresponding meditations, readers can tap into their "eight powers" of tolerance, courage, cooperation, accommodation, discrimination, judgment, withdrawing negative thoughts and disregarding mundane thoughts. The compact size and easy-to-read format of the book will allow readers to carry their practical meditations with them in a purse, a briefcase or in the car for instant "destressing" at any time of the day.
