"Meditation For Everyone is an accessible, practical and engaging video introduction for people of any belief or none. Meditation, and all it can lead to, is probably the greatest gift you can give yourself and this video is an excellent introduction.
Pratap Rughani, documentary film director (BBC, Channel 4).
Meditation is a way of training the mind. Just as regular physical exercise trains the body and keeps it fit, so meditation can be thought of as a method for training the mind and keeping it in a healthy state.
Through meditation practice it's possible to develop a positive and clear state of mind. This isn't thinking 'good' thoughts, or painting on a smile. It is bringing out the best in yourself - a way of reducing the build-up of stress, anger and other emotions which can make life difficult for you and those around you.
This DVD provides a straightforward and practical guide to learning a simple and effective meditation technique, suitable for people of any faith or none.
Meditation is simply a pleasure to me. It's amazing that something so simple and free can make life so much more pleasurable.

I didn't think at first I was the sort of person that could meditate. It was really satisfying to realise that anybody can meditate. Even somebody like myself who has a really active mind."
