Or maybe it’s your mind that careens out of control, refusing to think of “nothing?” What if someone told you that you could get all the rewards of meditation – the health benefits, sharpened focus, a boost in memory – without the need to sit chanting some mantra for up to a half hour a day? Zen Meditation Magic: Secrets to Finding the Time for Peace of Mind, Every Day provides you with practical, proven, and powerful meditative remedies to your stressful lifestyle.

Zen Meditation Magic: Secrets to Finding the Time for Peace of Mind, Every Day is your complete guide to Zen meditation. Whether you have 90 seconds (the time of a red light at a busy intersection) or 20 minutes, you can find a Zen meditative practice you can use to improve your overall health and give you the ultimate feeling of peace of mind.

In her role she had kissed hundreds of clients and it had meant as little to her as a software update. But this kiss was the first she had truly felt. Every second his lips caressed hers was a second of joy that she gave back to him with a desire and intensity she had never felt before."
