Sample Book Insights:
#1 To start a meditation practice, you need to choose a schedule and a time that is realistic for you. Then, find a space in your home that is sacred or relaxing for you, and sit in a way that allows you to feel lifted.
#2 The commitment and devotion to a meditation schedule are more difficult if you are doing it alone, but it becomes easier with time. If you are a beginning meditator, I recommend practicing with a partner or a group.
#3 The practice of shamatha is the backbone of the meditation path. It is the practice of stabilizing the mind and training it to be present, settling the mind in the present moment, and awakening to the world just as it is.
#4 When you sit down to meditate, you first settle. This means that you come into the room where you intend to practice meditation and allow yourself to be completely as you are. You check in with yourself.
