Complete Guide
(with Eleanor Vierick)

Thought meditation was just sitting on a pillow with eyes closed,
counting breaths? This illuminating guide shows how various meditative
traditions can be. Written with a yoga teacher and practitioner, this
book is a how-to for the beginning meditator who wishes to find a form
that is appropriate to beliefs and habits. But it also offers
excellent resources and bibliographies for more advanced practitioners
wishing to expand their practices.
