Too much talking...didn't care much for this one.

It's okay. It's way beginner level, I thought. Too much talking. I was disappointed. I don't even think I went on to listen to the entire CD.
Oh well. I'll recycle it.

Accessible Meditation for Everyone

I've meditated over the years, but only recently discovered this CD of guided meditations. I use it often and have given it as a gift because I value its simplicity and straightforward approach. It's a great introduction to meditation as well as a call back to the "beginner's mind" for people who aren't new to the practice.

Very Good

The meditations a easy to follow. I've tried other guided meditation CDs and they sometimes have distracting anecdotes in the middle of the meditation. This one doesn't. There is a brief introduction to each meditation that can be skipped once you get the hang of it.

Very easy, entertaining and useful

I really enjoyed this CD. Being new to meditation, I didnt know what to expect. The author is very helpful in guiding you through the practice in a calm manner. Very worth it!
