benefit of meditation, simple meditation technique

"Sarah read it out loud to Annie and I as we sat huddled around the book. We all had this visceral experience, relating to the very beginning passage. We couldn't believe it, it was like boom! This powerful, emotional moment that is just impossible to describe. Such a gift…we all felt it at once. I immediately ordered 5 more books for gifts."
