Schwartz presents mediation in a way that is accessible. But her message is a bit of a mess. She claims there's nothing new-agey or woowoo about it, but later talks seriously about chakras. In one paragraph she says that crystals aren't magic, but that they admit energies that just can't be proved. But for all the silliness and questionable claims there are some pretty helpful tips hidden in there. I just wish I didn't have to dig for them.
Finally starting to get into some helpful tips and I'm over halfway through the book. Is it a self-help book requirement to have excessive padding? Every one I read seems to be filled with meaningless quotes and anecdotes.
I really really really want to learn meditation. I honestly think it would be helpful for my anxiety. I just hate the self-help-y feel of this book. Comes across as patronizing. :-/
George Harrison. Am I suppose to know who that is?
So far this reads like every other self help mumbo jumbo book I've read. The rich-lady variety with lots of name-dropping. I haven't gotten into the actually meditation exercises yet. Hopefully they don't suck.
