{"product_id":"the-relaxed-mind-isbn-9781611802825","title":"The Relaxed Mind","description":"\u003cb\u003eAn esteemed modern Tibetan Buddhist teacher presents a system of  meditation instructions designed for achieving relaxation in our stressful, fast-paced world\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the late 1990s, shortly after arriving in the United States, it became clear to Dza Kilung Rinpoche that his Western students responded to traditional meditation instructions differently from his students back in Asia. The Westerners didn't know how to relax—and their pressured, fast-paced lifestyles carried over into meditation. With this in mind, Dza Kilung Rinpoche set out to create a meditation system that could break through the noise of Western life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Relaxed Mind\u003c\/i\u003e contains instructions for the seven-phase practice that he developed for students in the West. It is adapted from traditional instructions to counteract the overwhelming distraction that is becoming a global culture these days, not only in the West. Beginners will find a wealth of useful, easy-to-understand information while more experienced meditators may be surprised to find their practice deepening through letting go of tension.Table of Contents:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEditor's Preface\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction \u003cbr\u003e1.
