5.0 out of 5 stars First You Sigh, January 17, 2001

By	Cheryl Williams (Plano, Texas) - See all my reviews

When I finished this book, I felt like I'd known Beth Johnson my entire life! I bought this book to learn how to meditate, but First You Sigh ended up being much more than that. I was thoroughly entertained--I laughed out loud and I cried. It is full of profound messages about day-to-day living--ones that really make sense and have been easy to incorporate into my own life! I've read lots and lots and lots of books about meditation and varying techniques. This is absolutely the first book that described step-by-step how to actually do it. AND, I did! I rank it right up there with the best.

5.0 out of 5 stars Missing Link, May 22, 2001

By	Richard Walla (Blanco, Texas) - See all my reviews

Beth and her editor managed to touch me by writting this book in a style of "this-is-how-it-FEELS-inside-my-thoughts". It is a pleasant, enjoyable, BUT (more importantly) an informative read for anyone who may be needing help with feeling their previous attempts at meditating were missing something. This book provides the "something".

5.0 out of 5 stars Clarity, Peace and Fun -- all in 1 place!, February 3, 2001

By	Cara L Harris (Austin, Texas United States) - See all my reviews

I have been practicing meditation for about 3 years now. And, this book really helped to clarify things -- bringing it all together in real-life applications -- for me. My spiritual path has been greatly expanded through this book, and my meditations will never be the same. The connectedness and peace I now achieve through my meditations are far beyond anything I have experienced before.

And, it did so in a very Joyous, passionate, gentle way. A very easy, friendly read that has added a great deal to my life. Thank You Beth Johnson for sharing!
