About the Author:

Review:

"Victor has included so many intriguing meditations in this book; meditations I'd not previously heard of, and couldn't wait to try. I especially loved the Tibetan Nine Round Breathing Practice (very calming) and the Eightfold Path Meditation for Self Awareness (great for keeping us on our path). There are meditations to help with pain, insomnia, connect with nature, and find inner peace; there's even an anger management meditation that I will use the next time someone cuts me off on my way to work (drivers who bully others are a big trigger for me).

In addition to providing us with quick, easy and impactful meditations, Victor also discusses what meditation is all about, why people meditate, and the benefits of meditation.

I love this book." -Sherri Cortland, www.examiner.com
