Enjoyed this book. Good intro on meditation. Ms. Piver's writting style was very open and appreciated the sharing of her personal struggles with emotion and depression. Not sure Shamatha is the style for me, but good info and will be reading her book recommendations.

I put this book down for a while, restarted it last month. A very good beginning guide to one of the major forms of meditation.

Easy to digest and a great primer on meditation and spirituality. I just wish there had been more to it!

I heard an interview with the author where she laughed at herself, saying that she knew the last thing the world needed was another book on meditation, but that she apparently had a book on meditation inside her that needed to get out. I for one am very glad she did. It's concise, humorous, helpful, and cuts through a lot of crap.

It may seem silly that it took me a week to read a teeny tiny book, but it is a tiny book full of big ideas. I couldn't just read it in one sitting. Here is the thing, it's a great starter book for mediation. Also very helpful-the videos on the website that go along with the book. The cat in the videos gets five stars in my opinion!!!
Great read. Well done. It really helped me decide where I want to go next with my brand new practice.
