THE UNEXPECTED POWER OF MINDFULNESS & MEDITATION
ED & DEB SHAPIRO

 

“Anyone interested in meditation should read this book.” The Dalai Lama

 
There is a sanity and brilliance to mindfulness and meditation, from awakening inner strength, kindness and fearlessness to inviting radical change. Beneath our dramas and conflicts is a calm and peaceful mind. 

As an activist in a Chinese jail, Kiri Westby used meditation to maintain her peace. Yogi Seane Corn used mindfulness to work with teenage prostitutes in LA. Play therapist Megan Larson says meditation has deeply influenced her work with children. 

The book includes insights from visionary leaders, such as the Dalai Lama, Jon Kabat-Zinn and Marianne Williamson. The Unexpected Power of Mindfulness & Meditation is inspiring and enlightening. Discover how to transform your life from the inside out!

If there is one book you read about Meditation this should be the one. Hear about some of the cool people who do it, why you should do it, and how, through the practice of meditation, you will be able to change yourself and become the person you wish to be. – Sharon Gannon, Jivamukti Yoga

The pausing has been profound. It has invited me to arrive in the here and now with my child clients, and to accept whatever happens without labeling, judging, or categorizing behavior. – Play therapist Megan Larson

Mindfulness is the awareness that arises when we pay attention to the present moment. It accesses us to core aspects of our mind that our very sanity depends on, as does our capacity to live wholeheartedly in this crazy world. – Jon Kabat-Zinn, Mindfulness teacher 


THE ART OF MINDFUL RELAXATION
THE HEART OF YOGA NIDRA

ED SHAPIRO

Most of us experience some degree of stress and many are too frustrated and exhausted to deal effectively with life’s pressures. Consumed by the mind’s chatter, we can’t appreciate the beauty and wonder of creation and we lose touch with the real purpose of our lives.
Ed Shapiro trained with the originator of yoga nidra and draws upon the timeless wisdom of centuries of Eastern meditation teachings to offer an in-depth, easy-to-follow path to profound relaxation and relief. By following these techniques, we can truly still our minds, tapping into a tremendous inner source of richness and creativity, and finding the freedom to realize our true potential.
There are many teachers of meditation, but there are few who can so effortlessly translate such profound and ancient techniques as Ed Shapiro. Andy Puddicombe, Founder HEADSPACE
Change can be transformative but if we put it off then we put living on hold, fixed in old ways of being. Ed Shapiro gives us the courage to embrace change. This is a necessary and timely book. Ohio Congressman Tim Ryan

Breath Awareness Meditation. By watching the breath you become centered, focused and aware. As the mind becomes quieter you connect with a lasting peace.
Witness Meditation.  Develops the ability to maintain an alert mindfulness of your thoughts and feelings, enabling you to awaken an inner spaciousness.
Loving Kindness Meditation. Awakens compassion and mercy towards both yourself and others. When the heart opens unconditional love is revealed.
Forgiveness Meditation. Embraces the hurt or shame that cause pain, for both yourself and others. When the heart is forgiving, you are free of suffering.

Yoga Nidra Mindful Relaxation leads to a profound depth of awareness and dynamic relaxation. This clears your mind of deep-rooted tension and trauma that are normally inaccessible, and connects you to your authentic self.
