Genevieve L. Paulson (Author)

Book Description

Series: Llewellyn's New Age Series | Publication Date: March 8, 1997

Meditation has many purposes - healing, past life awareness, balance, mental clarity and relaxation are just a few. This book is a guidebook that focuses on the practice of meditation as a tool for growth and development, as well as for expanding consciousness into other realms. It includes detailed meditations of both a practical and more esoteric nature to serve the needs of the complete person. Specific exercises are provided for different areas of life: health of the physical body; wealth in the physical world; emotional well-being; transmuting excess sexual energy; experiencing oneness with the universe; and alignment with the seasonal, lunar and planetary energies. Genevieve Lewis Paulson has also written "Kundalini and the Chakras: A Practical Manual".

This review is from: Meditation and Human Growth: A Practical Manual for Higher Consciousness (Llewellyn's New Age Series) (Paperback)

As someone who is just learning about meditation, I found this book extremely interesting. I was unaware of all the types, forms, and ways to meditate. The book teaches how to "prepare" yourself for meditation with simpler exercises and gives many descriptive choices of ways to prepare yourself. Further into the book the author relays various ways to meditate, including how to use the Chakra's. The author comes off as open and honest. The book is to the point and anyone wanting to know about how to get started in meditation will truly benefit from this book.
