Focused Awareness Meditation: A Guide to Getting Started

Whatever balance means to you, Focused Awareness Meditation can help you find it. In this 20 page guide, Dr. Susan Taylor provides practical tips for how to sit comfortable, breath correctly and set up a program for progress in meditation. Focused Awareness Meditation, offered by the Center for Meditation Science, is a systematic program for tapping your inner strength, or "core energy." Core energy provides the strength, vitality and focus required to achieve balance. Through a simple, five-step technique, the program leverages your senses, body, breath and mind to access and develop core energy. As a result, you are empowered to chart the course of your life with confidence, while enjoying the ride at the same time.

Focused Awareness Meditation takes a comprehensive, practical approach to building core energy and achieving balance. The program utilizes traditional yoga meditation developed over thousands of years. This form of meditation is rooted in science and does not advocate any religion, philosophy or lifestyle. Practitioners of Focused Awareness Meditation are able to heal, nourish and transform their lives simply through systematic, regular meditation.
