Four different techniques are covered: breath awareness, thought/feeling awareness, body sensations, and the practice of loving kindness. The video, including a 15-page study guide, offers a comprehensive orientation to meditation, its history, and its benefits. ~ Sarah Sloboda, Rovi

 

 

We like Jack Kornfield for his gentleness and his simple and down to earth approaches to life and meditation.  His voice is calming and this DVD is perfect for you if you are new to meditation.

Here are a few quotes by Jack Kornfield:

“In the end, just three things matter:

How well we have lived
How well we have loved
How well we have learned to let go”
― Jack Kornfield

“To bow to the fact of our life’s sorrows and betrayals is to accept them; and from this deep gesture we discover that all life is workable. As we learn to bow, we discover that the heart holds more freedom and compassion than we could imagine.”
― Jack Kornfield

 

“You hold in your hand an invitation: to remember the transforming power of forgiveness and loving kindness. To remember that no matter where you are and what you face, within your heart peace is possible.”
― Jack Kornfield
