Hardcover and bound so as to stay open, The Diamond Color Meditation is a perfect travel companion, great for train rides or during lunch break at work. I find that I feel more focused and deal better with such stresses as electronic bookkeeping with the aid of this easy-to-use tool.
This is one book I can re-read and never get tired of. Well done Dr. Diamond.

The Diamond Color Meditation is a revolutionary approach to meditation by one of the world's great pioneers of holoistic medicine. It is deceptively simple, so much so that I believe most anyone could do it and benefit. It certainly does not require any previous experience of meditation and, indeed, is very different from the usual "passive" Eastern-derived approach. More important, the benefits are immediate, long-lasting and profound.
The reason for this is that the Meditation goes the heart of our life problems by helping to alleviate what Dr. Diamond terms our existential anguish, the root cause of all human suffering and disease, both physical and mental. The result is our Life Energy is raised at the deepest level.
I cannot stress enough the brilliant simplicity of the approach and its effectiveness. Doing the Meditation on a daily basis helps my entire day, enhancing my creativity, relationships and general functioning. I understand that it is the fruit of years of research and is yet another example of the astounding originality, insight, and therapeutic efficacy of Dr. Diamond's work. I strongly recommend it to everyone.

I've had this for a month now and use it daily. I find it quickly and simply gets me to a place where I feel the meditation is working to get insights I haven't accessed before. I read a review of it on merliannews.com: "...the author has designed this system to overcome the anguish and bring about deep healing....You may feel an immediate shift in the first reading/meditation, or a sense of the old wounds loosening and softening. If you continue for several days, more good effects continue to roll in - the colors are by turns soothing, energizing and healing." That convinced me to work with the book and I think it is simply fantastic!
