Meditation for the Love of It: Enjoying Your Own Deepest Experience by Sally Kempton

4.0

If you don't love meditation already, Kempton will convince you otherwise. Openhearted, funny, and genuine, Kempton approaches developing a personal meditation practice with great understanding for the challenges and frustrations ... and wonderful rewards that come with it. Sometimes I found her approach a little **too** religious, but it wasn't heavy-handed enough to turn me off. (I prefer my meditation and yoga to be God-lite.) What I loved the most was her breakdown of the different types of meditation: breath, sound, awareness, etc... For each she outlines a practice that's easy to do at home on your own, and explains when, why and how each practice works best.

I would strongly recommend this book to anyone who's just started a meditation practice or would like to come back to sitting after some time away.
