Star Stuff Meditations

About the Book

You don't need a guru to meditate. Meditation is for all of us, including you. This book tells you how to do it, using inspirational meditations, affirmations, poetry and classic literature from Biblical times to the present, including the Eastern mystics.

Star Stuff Meditations is based on a series of tapes of guided meditations, recorded in Santa Fe, New Mexico. They were led by Santa Fe poet Larry Russell, reading from Genesis, Albert Einstein, Laotse, Da Love Ananda, the Sutra, Thomas Wolfe, Hart Crane, Emily Dickinson, The Psalms, Sri Aurobindo, Thoreau, Hazrat Inayat Khan and Walt Whitman.

This is a guide book to self help through guided meditation. How to do it. When to do it. And why to do it. You will learn through basic, simple exercises in breathing and relaxation how to achieve a complete release of all tension, worries and fear, simply by creating a temple within.

The book also explains how to get tapes of Larry Russell's original readings, accompanied by his concert pianist wife June De Toth, performing the music of Bach, Beethoven, Chopin and Mozart, among others."
