<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br> <b>Can you change your life in just 30 days? More importantly, can you change your mind?</b> <p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> In Emma Silverman's newest book, she teams up with her yoga teacher, Nicole Stumpf, to make meditation accessible, interesting, and fun. Exploring meditation traditions from around the world, Silverman and Stumpf invite readers to try thirty different meditations and then record their experiences after the practice. This book combines thousand-year-old meditation traditions with the newer phenomenon of prompted journaling. <p/>Studies at Harvard University found that just eight weeks of meditation rebuilds the gray matter of your brain that supports learning and memory. The National Institute of Health has written that meditation increases activity in the parasympathetic nervous system, which is associated with a state of relaxation. A study at the University of Wisconsin in Madison found that "mindfulness meditation" improves both our mood and the strength of our immune system. There are dozens more scientific and peer-reviewed studies that agree: meditation can change your life for the better. <p/>Beginning is often where the greatest challenge lies. This is the book to help you explore what all the meditation buzz is about! <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> Most of us figure we should meditate a bit. But what does that actually involve?

Highly recommended! --Andrew Chignell, professor, Princeton University <p/>The book you've been waiting for: meditation made easy and enjoyable. In this thirty-day challenge, you'll find meditation techniques new and old, complex and simple, and each one holds the potential to change your life. Just do it! --Devarshi Steven Hartman, founder of the Pranotthan Yoga School <p/><br></br><p><b> About The Author </b></p></br></br> <b>Emma Silverman</b> is the author and founder of the blog <i>The Joy of Yoga</i> as well as the author of the instructional books <i>The Joy of Yoga</i>, <i> Yoga Twists and Turns</i>, and <i>Office Zen</i>.
