| Abstract
|
:
|
"Steve Hagen strips away the cultural and religious jargon surrounding meditation and provides an accessible and thorough manual for newcomers and experienced practitioners alike. Inside you will find: simple practices to avoid needlessly complicating meditation; where most of us get stuck in meditation--and how to get unstuck; a unique focus on meditation not simply as a spiritual technique, but as a way of living."--
