I've been meditating for more than thirty years and have read a ton of books on meditation. This book is at the top of my list.

Simple, clear, and down to earth, "The Joy Within" is far and away the best book on meditation I've ever read.

To quote the authors:

"The goal of meditation is to reach the thought-free place within. When we're able to reach this place of inner silence, our joy expands because there's nothing to stop it--no concepts, no worries, no fears.

"When your thoughts don't get in the way, your inner joy wells up inside giving you an incredible feeling of wholeness and happiness."

That's meditation in a nutshell.

If you're at all interested in learning how to meditate, GET THIS BOOK!

I got this book to learn how to meditate to decrease back pain. this book goes through different exercises to help you determine what you want to get out of meditation and then it goes through the many kinds of meditation. then at the very end of the book it shows you how to meditate and uses what you learned in the beginning of the book and creates a four-week program to help you achieve a deep meditation. i haven't gotten through the entire process but so far i have really liked it. just being able to relax and focus on the exercise has decreased my back pain.
