    Book Review: 8 Minute Meditation 📚

    One of my goals for this year was to expand my meditation practice. I picked this book up on special in early January and dove right it.

    I didn’t find it particularly helpful, and most of the text seemed to be there solely for the purpose of filling pages. Others may appreciate and benefit from it it, but I can’t recommend it based on my experience.
