The author who hosts on ABC News always believed that meditation is entertainment for crystal collectors. But after he experienced a panic attack on air, he decided to give meditation a chance—and ended up becoming one of its best-known advocates.
With the goal of introducing meditation to skeptics just like he once was and dispelling the most popular misconceptions about it, Dan Harris and his team decide to tour the United States by bus, meeting the most diverse people. What came of it is told in this book, filled with self-irony and witty observations.
Additionally: the book not only offers practical recommendations on how to overcome obstacles on the path to meditation, but also explains—simply and accessibly—how to begin meditating, and includes meditations for different life situations, problems, and personalities.
