Meditation for Busy People offers simple strategies to reduce tension,
minimize chronic stress, and quickly relax and unwind. Nobody needs
meditation more than people who have no time to meditate. These busy
people may have tried meditation but given it up, as it seems so
difficult to integrate into a hectic lifestyle. Most traditional
meditation techniques were developed thousands of years ago for people
living a very different lifestyle than today. Few people today find it
easy to just sit down and relax. Meditation for Busy People is filled
with methods that can actually be integrated into everyday life. A
morning commute becomes a centering exercise, and the street noises
outside an apartment window in the city become an aid rather than a
distraction to finding the silent space within. Both active and passive
meditation techniques are covered, and the aim of all the techniques is
to teach the practitioner how to find the stillness in the storm of
everyday life. Many methods are specially designed to be integrated into
the reader's everyday routines, so that they soon can tackle even the
most hectic day with an attitude of relaxed calm and playfulness.
