Textbook Information
Meditation is a technique that can be used to experience peace, tranquility, and an inner beauty, leading us to rethink everything around us, even ourselves. It prompts us to trust in the ability we have to use and direct our energies to purify our bodies and minds...so that we can discover and develop our spirituality.
Brian Weiss, M.D., author of Many Lives, Many Masters, has written a very special book to help with the practice of meditation (a CD is also included to help guide you through the process). Meditation: Achieving Inner Peace and Tranquility in Your Life includes the techniques Dr. Weiss uses on his patients, many of whom have conquered insomnia anxiety, phobias, weight issues, and disease. Meditation can also lower blood pressure, strengthen the immunological system, and reduce stress.
As Dr. Weiss says, "It all starts by closing your eyes, relaxing our muscles, and showing down our breathing. Little bye little, we ask our minds to block out the clamoring voices that usually bombard it... This means living this moment intensely, letting go, and surrendering." This book is the first step on a more peaceful, relaxing journey through life.
Brian L. Weiss, M.D., is a psychiatrist and bestselling author who lives in Miami, Florida. He is a graduate of Columbia University and Yale Medical School, and is the former Chairman of Psychiatry at the Mt. Sinai Medical Center in Miami.
Dr. Weiss maintains a private practice in Miami, where his offices include well-trained and highly experienced psychologists and social workers who also use regression therapy and the techniques of spiritual psychotherapy in their work. In addition, Dr. Weiss conducts national and international seminars and experienced workshops as well as training programs for professionals.

March 07, 2008: The reason one might research meditation are many. Mine was a personal reason originating from the loss of my wife, then eventually depression and illness. The book is well written and understandable. Though my journey has just begun. I can see a far brighter future thanks to meditation. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to find that inner peace we all yearn for.
