Change Your Mind: A Practical Guide to Buddhist Meditation

Buddhism is based on the truth that, with effort, we can

change the way we are. But how? Among the many methods

Buddhism has to offer, meditation is the most direct. It is

the art of getting to know one's own mind and learning to

encourage what is best in us.

This straightforward and imaginative book focuses on

two Buddhist meditation practices - Mindfulness of

Breathing, the bedrock of all meditation practice, and Metta

Bhavana, which gradually nurtures in us an unshakeable

confidence and a warm concern for the welfare of others. It

deals fully with the practical aspects of meditation, including

how to maintain a regular practice and how to deal with any

difficulties that arise.

This is an accessible and thorough guide, based on

traditional material but written in a light and modern style.

Colourfully illustrated with anecdotes and tips from the

author's experience as a meditator and teacher, it also offers

refreshing inspiration to seasoned meditators.

To take up meditation is to introduce a powerful force

for change into your life. If you change your mind then the

world changes too. Meditation can be the beginning of life's

greatest adventure.
