Absolutely loved this book! (so much that I've read it 7 times so far). A great read- full of tips for meditation, bettering yourself, and helping other people reach their greatest potential. The meditation practices have drastically improved the way I respond in high stress situations by giving me tools to step back and calm my mind when met with difficulty. The "Body Scan" and "Loving Kindness" meditations are my personal favorites that I use daily. The emotional intelligence practices, like "Active Listening", have improved my communication between myself and coworkers. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who values personal growth.

I've attended the Search Inside Yourself program at work and this is a great review of the curriculum. The audio book format is great on the commute and the narration is well done.

Well written! Meditation is necessary and the best part is like a workout without sweat and gym. Totally agreed with Mr. Tan.
