Opening to Meditation: A Gentle, Guided Approach
by Diana Lang
Diana Lang’s books, audios, webinars, and workshops have allowed thousands to access the physical, psychological, and spiritual benefits of meditation. While Lang is well versed in a variety of esoteric international traditions, her teaching is distinguished by its clarity and simplicity. Lang’s desire to help her students easily experience a “state of inner peace and connectedness” led her to write this book largely eyes closed and in meditation. In this way she has avoided the “analytical theory, fixed rules, or intellectual razzmatazz,” that often intimidate would-be practitioners. Her instruction cuts to the chase because she is not actually teaching readers anything new; she is instead reminding them of their foundational essence of soul and self, where peace and centeredness are always and everywhere available.
