Synopsis

If you've ever thought you'd like to try to meditate, Meditation: If You're Doing It, You're Doing It Right is the book for you. If you've ever tried to meditate and found it difficult or frustrating, Meditation: If You're Doing It, You're Doing It Right is the book for you. And if you currently meditate but wonder if there might be more to it than you're experiencing, Meditation: If You're Doing It, You're Doing It Right is the book for you. Twenty-seven meditators, including spiritual leaders, neuroscientists, musicians and many others, discuss precisely what they do when they meditate, why they do it, and what happens when they do it. No one's experience is the same. If you're looking for inspiration, ideas, an understanding of the neurology behind meditation, and some fascinating role models – you'll find it all here.
