Meditation for Beginners (Secret Meditating Techniques to Unlock Your Hidden Potential) by Abigail Mason

Review
"Meditation for Beginners (Secret Meditating Techniques to Unlock Your Hidden Potential)", by Abigail Mason, is a comprehensive how-to book on meditation.

One of the strengths of the 61-page book is that it introduces the reader to the practice of meditation slowly, rather than just diving straight into the nitty-gritty.

The reader learns about what happens to the mind during meditation, why one should meditate, and other pertinent information.

When Mason offers instructions on how to meditate, she uses clear, easy-to-follow writing, which makes it easy to put her words into practice.

Mason covers the range of different types of meditation, from transcendental meditation to Christian meditation.

The greatest strength of the work, however, is that the author offers advice on how to implement meditation practically.

The author knows that many readers lead busy lives, and she includes directions on how to incorporate quick meditations into a hectic schedule.

Overall, this book is great for anyone looking to meditate, or anyone who has some meditation experience but would like to learn about new ways to meditate.

Love Yourself: The Secret Key to Transforming Your Life by Embrosewyn Tazkuvel

 

Review
"Love Yourself: The Secret Key to Transforming Your Life," by Embrosewyn Tazkuvel and narrated by John Eastman, is an insightful meditation on the transformative power of self-love.

In his 39-minute audiobook, Tazkuvel encourages readers to begin with loving themselves, rather than first seeking love from another person.  

Tazkuvel believes that loving yourself is the foundational energy of life, which is not selfish or vain, but is the energy that cultivates better relationships with others, reaches the most primal part of our being, and connects us deeply with the divine. Tazkuvel says that love is "ambrosia for the soul."

The first step to experiencing the magic power of love is to sincerely affirm self-love everyday by saying, "I love you," in the mirror.  In workshops the author has led, the majority struggle with this seemingly simple task.

The book concludes with 88 compelling reasons why you should love yourself.  A few examples include: loving yourself enough to have a vision for the future, to have a passion, to have moral courage, to repent, to gain knowledge, to laugh, and to love and be loved.

The book is well written, and the audio-narration provides readers with a relaxing time for introspection and a new challenge to love oneself.

“Love Yourself: The Secret Key to Transforming Your Life” is a superb companion on one’s journey of self-love that will empower readers to lead happier, healthier, and more fulfilled lives.
