MEDITATIONS FOR MOTHERS

From AudioFile

"Adapted from Roy's book, these calming meditations show that a healthy spiritual practice doesn't have to be distinct from motherhood. This thoughtful lesson offers insights, reflections, and practices that are as inviting as they are valid expressions of the experience of motherhood. Many of Roy's ideas sound like they come straight from the Buddhist playbook (thoughtful brea­thing, living in the present). Yet her approach is distinctly nondenominational, and includes a substantial amount of secular relaxation advice. With pleasantly precise enunciation and the intentional pacing of a mindful person, the authors speaking voice is perfect for her mission. This compact, perfectly executed lesson is a great vehicle for the inspiration and guidance Roy provides. T.W. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
