I selected this from the Amazon Prime library as a freebie/loan - it's very short. There are several pages at the beginning and end that are promotions for other products. Really - this is a good web page or wikipedia article about meditation. This book offers a nice primer on meditation: the author discusses the benefits of meditation, different types of meditation, some tips on how to make the time and create a comfortable space for meditation.

This book offers a nice primer on meditation: the author discusses the benefits of meditation, different types of meditation, some tips on how to make the time and create a comfortable space for meditation. One of the chief principles repeated throughout is the difference between your self/mind and your thoughts and reactions/actions. Meditation is a great practice to help clear the clutter (seems to be a theme in my reading lately) and allow you to let go of unproductive thoughts, feelings and other distractions so that you can make better decision, reduce stress and enjoy life more fully. All excellent goals and there's simply no arguing with the content of this book, albeit a brief reminder/refresher of why one should meditate.
Alex Kuhl –
Simple, concise book to get you started on thinking about and practicing meditation. I enjoyed how quick the book was to read and the insights it gives you into the mind, stillness, and meditation. I took off a star because of poor editing.

Starters guide This book is a great starters guide for those interested in meditation either because they are curious about it or because they are interested in meditating themselves. I personally read this book because I'm learning about Buddhism and everything that falls under its umbrella. Will definitely recommend this book.

Very helpful!

This was a good introduction to meditation for me. While, yes, it has a lot of information that could be found online, I liked the presentation. It goes over the basics of meditation, suggestions on how to get started, and some nice inspirational quotes. I knew nothing about meditation. This was a good bite sized introduction.It was really short. Each page had large margins, large print, and large spacing.
Jeanne Johnston –
Welp, it does say "for beginners..." At 20 minutes, however, it's more of a pamphlet than a book. Gives a basic rationale, some different types of meditation, but not much in the way of "Do A, B, and C, and you're aiming for this." Pretty sketchy on details and I suppose it's intended more as an orientation than serious instruction. Freebie, at least. Welp, it does say "for beginners..."

really good guide Really great meditation guide . Highlights common obstacles and the various types of meditation. But rather than just explaining the benefits this book actually explains how to meditate in a practical manner!
Stuball –
Good Intro and a Quick Read I liked this quick read and intro to meditation. It does a good job of introducing some basic forms of meditation and some techniques. Couple this with some of the amazing meditation apps, and you can start today.
Ann Campbell –
Great! Great book. Good explanations and very informative. Easy to understand as someone who only had a limited knowledge on meditation. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to know more about the art of meditation.
Van –
It is in the title Very informative to this novice. I'm still trying to decide if I want to start now or later. Thank you. It is in the title Very informative to this novice. I'm still trying to decide if I want to start now or later. Thank you.

Great for Individuals new to meditation Because of this book, I am on day 30 of meditating. This is meditation 101. I really love its simplicity.
Jake Goodwin –
Good for beginners but if you have any experience at all then this may not be the book for you, that being said it is still interesting and I did learn a couple of things from this short read
Mari-Jo Hill –
Very helpful overview of the purpose and process! This is a practical guide to the meditation experience for someone who wants to get started on a regular practice of meditation. It seems like a simple thing to do, but having some clear guidance on the preparation and environment to facilitate the experience is so helpful for establishing a new habit, which this needs to be. Thank you for a quick read to start the process!

Chevan would have benefitted from an editor to catch grammatical and translation errors that distract the reader. However, I totally recommend this book for anyone who is curious about meditation but unsure if they’re the “right” type of person for it or how they should start. This is a concise, practical guide to the fundamentals, and from this text I can very easily research further into particular topics now that I have a basic understanding.
Helga Cohen –
This is a good primer and a short concise book on meditation. The author discusses the benefits of meditation, the different types and some tips of how to start and where to meditate. It does not go into great detail but it was a good starting off point to now lead me to more detailed books. I found this to be helpful in this endeavor.
Jessica Duersch –
One page summary Fortunately I read this for free from Unlimited Kindle. This book could have been summarized in 1-2 pages and provide the same amount of information. I'm sure a quick internet search will give you more information. If you can read it for free, might as well because it doesn't take long to read, but I wouldn't pay for it.

Learning New Things So many simple concepts 1) being patient, 2) knowing the reason “why”, 3) posture, 4) making a priority, 5) breathing, 6) subduing chatter, and much more. Simple to understand, absolutely! Easy to master, no! Joy must be in the journey not in the accomplishment.
Ashley Wyse –
Great intro to meditation Yesenia goes right back to basics to encourage the newbie (that would be me) to start and continue a meditation practice daily. Around information on the different styles of meditation practice very beneficial and will now try each of them to find my best fit. If you are new to meditation pick up this quick read!
Soroosh Akef –
This was a fairly good book for anyone who's considering adding meditation to their daily routine. It started with the benefits of meditation, discussed the various methods of meditating, and ended with practical ways of fitting meditation in your schedule.

Very quick and easy to read. It really is for beginners thinking about starting meditation. Although it does not go into great detail on how to master meditation, it gives a great starting point. Which is the point.
Jennifer –
Great information! This book is an easy and highly informational read. If you are considering meditation, start here...you will not be disappointed! Gives great examples, says to personalize, and best of all a great way to begin.
Glen Edman –
Good reading I enjoyed how easygoing and informative it was. What to do or pitfalls to avoid was simple and concise. I’m glad I did read it as it gave many suggestions on how to get started without getting too defeated in the beginning.

Easy to understand Meditation for Beginners was very easy to understand. This is my first book on the subject and I think that I have a good basic understanding of it. Thank you to the author.

Good brief overview This book provides basic instruction and information about mediation. It is a quick read, so I recommend it to someone who is an absolute novice and wants to learn more about meditation.
Kevin J. Dour –
Good high level introduction This was goodnight level discussion on meditation. Have me some thoughts to try and ideas to start. I think this would be good for someone interested in learning about meditation on a high level.
Clare Shaw –
Really useful I would recommend this book to anyone considering meditation, easy to follow instructions and explorations as to why things are done the way they are. A easy book to understand.
Timothy J Summers –
Great starting point. This book is exactly what I needed. I am fairly new to meditation but I let my practice suffer due to new job and moving. This book reminded me what and how I should be practicing. I would recommend this book to anyone starting a new practice.
