From AudioFile:

A pioneer in mind/body medicine, Borysenko discusses the benefits and pitfalls of three types of meditation: concentration, mindfulness and centering prayer. With personal anecdotes and humor, she lets the listener determine which type of meditation is best for him/her. Although she does take the listener through a couple of exercises, the bulk of the tape explains how meditation works on the body. It is a real treat to listen to Borysenko. Her voice is pleasant and upbeat; her remarks are laced with clinical and personal experience. And she has a great laugh! Recorded live at a conference, the program is occasionally marred by extraneous noise. P.B.J. © AudioFile 2000, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
