This guide is genuinely a jewel of ease and detail. As I study it, I discovered myself getting into the sensitive layers of meditative attention. The writer talks with a tone of voice that’s equally universal and also individual. She reminds all of us that everyone has prospective to feel the souls and live sacred lives. You’ll find nothing dogmatic within her method, neither will she have you feeling that you’ll require something beyond yourself to be able to sink into the fantastic mysteries. She informs all of us we have been great beyond the wildest dreams, deserving exactly the same love and affection as any of our finest heroes and instructors. The book by itself is plenty to raise one to excellent heights…but if that is insufficient, it furthermore has a Compact disc with a voiced introduction to meditation and a couple of guided meditations which are deep and nice enough to release any kind of restriction or anxiety you may be experiencing. We used the Compact disc every day throughout a period of internal struggle and was handed significantly recovery and peace of mind from her relaxed words. In summary, this guide and Compact disc have the poetics of meditation. They will go beyond what’s frequently discussed in a dry and also didactic tone. Purchase this book by Diana Lang. From newbie to specialist, this can help you on your own route.
I had always avoided meditation, figuring I was too “hyper” or got bored too easily to be open to the process. Diana’s book (and accompanying CD) changed my mind about meditation. This little book is so beautifully simple, and so reassuring, that just about anyone who reads it will want to make meditation part of their daily lives.
The book and CD complement each other wonderfully—but either is valuable on its own. What I love is that the author lets the reader define meditation for themselves. She gives them the tools to begin—breathing, focus, observation, openness—-and supports them in their journey. You need not worry about “doing it right” —it’s about what’s right for you.
What I appreciated most was her reassurance about all the other thoughts that enter your mind when you are meditating. It’s okay. Everyone has it. (I had no idea that this was true!) You don’t need to “start over” or give up. This was of tremendous value to me, and will keep me on my meditation path.
I also bought this book as a gift. It’s perfect.

I have had other meditation tapes, but this is a treasure! Diana’s voice is exquisite and angelic, she makes it safe and EASY to explore our inner frontiers, a new adventure for many and a necessary SURVIVAL mechanism in our busy 21st Century. If all our world leaders read this book and meditated with Diana each day, we would be living in a peaceful and loving world.
I look forward to my a.m. meditation now, as it feels like my “sweet friend” is sitting with me. A delicious way to start the day, to remind me who I really am.

“Opening to meditation” was given to me as a birthday gift. I had never tried meditating before. I started reading the book and I was immediately struck by her gentle,poetic imagery. “Each of us is is so complex and beautiful.We are like a crystal with a thousand facets ” Diana has created an easy to read book with a ton of useful information. In the short time that I’ve had the book it has had a very positive impact on my life. The two meditations on the on the accompaning CD are great . I use them every day. Thanks Diana
