THE QUIET

Paul Wilson's casual style and comfort with this material make him a worthy companion for listeners as they absorb his down-to-earth presentation on meditation. He's been teaching meditation in Australia for 30 years, and his simple quieting procedure is one that ought to be accessible to everyone. Conceptual and prescriptive segments flow together seamlessly and are clearly informed by his extensive experience with how people accept or resist the idea of meditation. He provides a technique for staying centered that is new and significant—and perfectly compatible with the life of each listener. This is an influential resource for anyone interested in learning to meditate and an excellent introduction to a more emotionally grounded way of life.
