BodyCraft F611 Leg Extension / Curl Attachment Review

Perfect high-quality add-on for the BodyCraft bench. My only suggestion is that when doing leg curls to use some padding under your stomach so that the space and hard edges of the bench's padding between the seat of the bench and the back support part of it don'tunnecessarily irritate you.

Product Description
Boost the versatility of your BodyCraft F602 bench with this handy leg attachment. Made of sturdy steel, the attachment lets you perform leg extensions and lying leg curls without buying a whole new machine. All you need is the original F602 bench and the F611 accessory. The attachment, which includes three pairs of foam rollers covered with black vinyl for easy cleaning, carries a lifetime warranty.

Tinikling Set with Handles (SET) Review

TINIKLING SET WITH HANDLES. This is for teaching a Filipino dance to children who spent long hours researching and studying this country. They were very disappointed when they saw it. They are suppossed to be bamboo sticks.
This product was a bunch of crap. Nowhere does it specify that it is PVC pipe put together. For the money, it was outrageous. This is something that could be made by products in our local hardware store by a novice. If you are going to advertise a product, please specify that you did not even try to make it look authentic (fake looking bamboo). I am disappointed and will no longer purchase or recommend this product.

Product Description
The handles on these deluxe tinikling poles help prevent pinched fingers that can easily happen with traditional straight poles. This design also prevents the pinching of fingers between the poles and floor eliminating the need for the slides or crossbars. Poles adjust in length from 5' to over 8' without tools which allows for quick set-up and storage.

BodyTrends Weight Loss Yoga Solution Kit Review

I was very happy with every aspect of their product, great descriptions, good promotions and sales, and friendly customer service. I wrote to the site to thank them - something I rarely do because I expect good service - but they went above and beyond. They wrote me back quickly thanking me for the letter and my order and telling me that every order is treated as special and they welcomed my business again.

They will get it. Not only do they have a huge variety of items, many of which I am interested in, but they have fair prices, good sales, and great, friendly customer service.

I am going with a rare 5 stars for this company. There is very little to complain about especially when everything went so smoothly before, during, and after the transaction.

Bryan Kest's Santa Monica Power Yoga, All Levels-Live Bootleg Review

I have been doing Bryans type of power yoga for years. I started with the dvds (actually vhs) and when these cd's came out, I bought them immediately! Although the poses themselves are not that difficult, this practice is definately challenging. He seriously only does sun salutations A & B, triangle- small active rest, then reversed triangle-followed by another active rest, bow pose, then he takes you to a shoulder stand & plough, finally savasana. In a normal class, this practice might run you 45-50 minutes. But Bryans unique teaching and chatter makes the difference. Prepare to sweat! Although this cd is for all levels, please have some knowledge of the poses before you start. It'll help you more than the booklet! Enjoy!!

Product Description
Try something different! A truly one-of-it's kindaudio CD of a recorded power yoga class by Bryan Kest. Listen to your guided yoga instruction, with ease of replay (there are 7 tracks and run time is approx 90 mins).

Osteoporosis Exercise Protocols: Awareness and Prevention of Osteoporosis Review

In addition, to going over appropriate exercises for your clients with osteoporosis, this manual goes over what is osteoporosis, risk factors for it, its general treatment (bone strengthening and nutrition)and exercises to avoid with your clients.It alsoincludes an appendix filled with useful resources and supplemental information for instructors and their clients.

Exercises include being on the mat, chair, moonbox, cadallic, rotating discs, and ladder barrel.The exercises include clear explanations and step-by-step black and white pictures. In addition, Marika includes the purpose of the exercises, progressions, direction of resistance, and the bone benefits of each exercise.

The downside of the book is in its design. It is spiral bounded so the pages started to fall out when I started to carry it to the various studios where I was working.



Product Description
Eighty-five percent of a Pilates exercise studios clientele is female and over 40. Almost all ofthese clients are at risk for Osteoporosis. This book covers whether you need to modify, eliminate or keep each exercise in the entire Pilates repertoire for the Mat, Reformer, Cadillac, Wunda Chair and Ladder Barrel. Also included are 20 specialized movements developed by Marika Molnar, PT, for Pilates equipment to help increase bone mass and fight this silent thief. Spiral bound, black and white, 84 pages.

SPRI PBDG-8R 8 lb. Dual Grip Xerballs - Packaged Review

The personal trainer at the athletic club I belong to had me use a dual-grip ball for several exercises. I had never used one before and liked it so much that I decided to get one for home.

Fiesta Mexican Yoga Blanket Review

It's not the quality of these blankets that I have a problem with, its the thickness.These yoga blankets are as thin as a fleece blanket pretty much, and nowhere near how thick they need to be in order to be effectively used as yoga blankets. Look elsewhere!

Product Description
Fiesta Mexican Blankets have bright colors and designs will add a splash of color to your yoga studio. Colorful Mexican fringed blankets are designed for yoga. You will find them perfect for your yoga practice with your poses like shoulderstand and others. Enjoy how washable these blankets are, and consider these if there might be people allergic to wool using the blanket for yoga. The acrylic and polyester makes them more durable and they have the softness of cotton. Very decorative. Colors are assorted and shipments come from Mexico, so we cannot predict what is available. Request your favorite color in your shipping message and we may be able to accomodate your preference. Use folded in yoga or with your meditation practice for warmth.Made of 50% Acrylic, 40% Polyester,10% Cotton.

Yoga for Wellness Review

I purchased this book because it seemed to contain information similar to another yoga manual, The Anatomy of Hatha Yoga, but with the information presented in a more down-to-earth, less scientific manner (The Anatomy of Hatha Yoga is excellent, just a bit above my head!). This book is neither strictly a reference tool nor a practice guide, yet author Kraftsow touches on both of these areas. He presents information mainly in the former of vignettes describing past clients with whom he has worked. After providing an overview of the anatomical issues involved in various types of posture groups, Kraftsow goes into therapeutic applications of yoga, covering complains ranging from common aches and pains to physical diseases to emotional issues. He stresses the importance of customizing the prescribed yoga routine to each individual, but the wealth of information provided offers plenty of guidelines to allow readers to develop their own specialized practice. This book would also be very useful for yoga teachers looking for assistance in providing their students with individualized guidance, particularly with respect to wellness issues. A highly recommended work.

Product Description
Healing with the timeless teachings yoga from a world-renowned teacher of viniyoga. Fully illustrated, easy-to-follow guide drawing on the physical and spiritual components of yoga therapy for healing many common afflictions from common aches and pains to chronic disease to emotional health.

Power Plate pro5 Vibration Training Machine Review

I am an active and fit working mother of 2 and just when I thought there was no piece of fitness equipment that could provide me any type of new results at my age, boy was I wrong! The Pro5 has not only toned my entire body more than any spin or circuit training class has ever done in a short period of time, but it has increased my flexibility, range of motion, and overall physique and core strength. I feel immediate results after stepping off of my plate. I thought that this machine would not produce sweat, but I was wrong on that as well. You can do as much of a cardio workout on this machine, as you can in a spin class. The best part about it, is that you only need to do a 20-30 minute workout 3-4 times a week to achieve maximum results. I would recommend this equipment to everyone. It is easy to use, and Power Plate provides a wonderful training dvd, mats, handstraps, exercise poster and a remote if you get the Pro5 model. It is so worth the price.

Product Description
Add a new dimension to your workout routine with the Power Plate pro5 vibration training machine. The pro5 employs a technology called Acceleration Training to stimulate the body's natural response to vibration. These vibrations transmit waves of energy throughout the body, activating muscle contractions between 25 and 50 times per second, thereby enhancing your overall fitness in sessions as short as 15 minutes a day, three times per week. Acceleration Training offers a host of benefits, ranging from an immediate improvement in blood circulation to a variety of other measurable outcomes, including increased muscle strength and flexibility, improved range of motion, decreased cellulite, increased bone mineral density, reduced pain and soreness, and faster recovery from injury.

The pro5 offers more settings than other Power Plate machines.Acceleration Training works by creating instability in the human body, as with each vibration the body is forced to perform reflexive muscle actions. Furthermore, these contractions must work in multiple dimensions, as the Power Plate machines actually oscillate in all three directions, exactly as the human body is designed to do. This means that one can improve functional force (stability, strength, or power) by either applying more mass or more acceleration to the body. Many forms of training and condition use mass--as seen in methods with weight machines and free weights. Power Plate machines, by contrast, use the second half of the law of motion equation: they apply acceleration to the body while keeping mass (i.e., your body weight) the same. The result is that you work against a far greater influence, or "load," of gravity in every movement you perform. Power Plate machines are a great alternative for people who enjoy an active lifestyle but don't have the time to perform lengthy workouts three or more times a week.

Acceleration Training stimulates body's natural response to vibration.This particular model, the pro5, offers a larger number of settings than other Power Plate models, creating greater variation in your health and fitness routine. The larger plate surface, meanwhile, plays a similar role by providing more exposure to vibrations. As a result, the Power Plate pro5 can take you as far as you wan to go with your fitness goals, allowing you to increase vibration levels in one-step increments. Other details include 30-, 45-, and 60-second time settings; high/low vertical displacement settings; and a maximum load of 400 pounds. Backed by a commercial-grade two-year warranty and the testimony of hundreds of professional users, the pro5 measures 34 by 61 by 42 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 330 pounds.

Airzone 14-Foot Band Trampoline Review

Do NOT buy this trampoline!!!We bought it and set it up, and as soon as our kids started jumping on it, the legs began to bend under and looked as though they would either snap off or flip the entire trampoline!When kids jump, the trampoline "crawls" along on the grass and does not stay in one place.I think this is extremely unsafe.Not sure what to do since the boxes were taken with our trash pick up before we had even tried it out...and not sure how you repackage a large trampoline!I really regret this purchase and will NEVER own another product from this company.

Product Description
Utilizing Airzone's Ultra Flex stretch band system instead of springs, this 14-foot trampoline offers a safe bounce for outdoor fun. The bouncing mat offers a sizable diameter for a variety of bouncing techniques--from beginner to intermediate.

The durable sewn-on frame cover, fastened joints, and thick rail padding provide additional safety while six "W" leg frames offer enhanced stability.

Deluxe Peddler Exerciser Review

I purchased this product for $17. from a catalog, it is the exact same exercise peddler and it was not worth any amount ofmoney.Its parts are very loose your socks and pant legs will catch in the metal pins that hold the peddles on.I had to have someone stand on the end of it to steady while working it.The straps that go across the feet twist which makes the feet slip.I found this item to be very aggravating.

Bryan Kest's Advanced Routine-Live Bootleg Review

I really love this CD. I can't help but smile and be happy after I do it. That said, I'm also quite tired after this CD because it is a good, thorough workout. Very challenging. There are lots of standing poses like airplane and twisted moon. There are some very, very intense hip openers, some (like the one Bryan calls 'Jilly Mack Selleck Pose') that really bring me to my edge like nothing else I've ever done. I also feel this the day after in my shoulder muscles, so I would say it is a good all-over workout. This is definitely not for beginners. Be ready for a challenge.
Also, I really love Bryan. I like his attitude. His words resonate with me. He does let out some rather distracting sighs on this CD, but I've gotten used to them. I've done this CD three times in the past week. That's how much I love it.

Product Description
You asked for it, and you got it: an advanced Bryan Kest routine. We all like the physical challenge that Bryan provides within the context of yoga. Practice working at your edge while maintaining a healthy approach to your practice. Bryan himself, along with Regiane, are photographed in over 100 asanas in the accompanying booklet, which measures 8"" x 8"" square and is spiral bound.

Run Time: Approx. 90 Minutes, 18 Tracks.

Homeopathic Medicine for Children and Infants Review

I found this book to be a very easy to understand read. It's statistics on homeopathic treatment is incredible. I'm familar with homeopathic medicine but my husband is not. He found that this was one of the most informative and easiest to understand books that he has read. My husband is not a reader either, so of course I find this impressive. Plus my husband was not a believer prior to reading this (he is not easily influenced even though I've been practicing on myself for a couple of years) but now he is open to the idea of treating our children rather than being prescribed medicine by the doctor. In addition this book supports professional treatment if illness does not improve.

Product Description
In this comprehensive book, the nation's leading homeopathic educator provides everything parents need to know about treating their children's ailments at home with homeopathic medicines. Included is a complete guide to the correct use of homeopathy, recommended remedies for the treatment of more than seventy-five common physical, emotional, and behavioral conditions, and valuable information on the essential medicines that all parents should have in their home medicine kits.

Healing Childhood Ear Infections Review

this gem of a book completely transformed our family's ear infection experience.based on information contained herein and with the support of an amazing osteopathic doctor, my son went from a 12-month streak of 2-3 ear infections a month to 2-3 a year.that was the first year, then after that, 1.year after that, zero.he's now 7 and hasn't had one in more than 2 years.

i recommend both that you read this book, and that you find a physician who will support you in reducing or eliminating antibiotics as treatment for ear infections (as medically appropriate.)our doctor got us an otoscope and trained us how to use it so we could monitor the severity of the infection so we were empowered with the knowledge of how severe the infection was and could choose to get medication only when absolutely necessary.

Product Description
Ear infections are the #1 reason parents bring their children to a doctor. This new revision of an essential family health reference, by Micheal Schmidt, analyzes in simple language the numerous recent scientific studies showing that the standard medical treatments for childhood ear infections are ineffective and perhaps even dangerous, and offers recommendations on alternative care.

Kinesifit Weight Wrap System Review

I first have to say great help when i inquired about this product. I got an email response when i had a question before i decided to purchase these weight wraps. My comment on this item is this. It works!! If u can get the darn thing to stay on. The material on it is a comfprtable but start working up a sweet it likes to slide back and forth at times making it rather difficult to even go on a brisk jog. Make sure u decided on how what size. I purchased a meduim but im starting to think maybe a large would have been the way to go. The materail will rip if u try to stretch it to get a nice slug fit especially if u want to prevent the wraps from sliding off when u work out and start sweeating. All in all its a good product and i highly recommend it if u want to give your body a workout. Running walking pushups crunches pullups swimming u name it this stuff will make a simple pull up a challenge. I also suggest that u figure out a way to make the things sweat proof so u dont have the problem i do. I have yet figure out to prevent the darn things from sliding. Another thing the weights have a tendencey to slide out. another down side of it. Aside from that its a great product.

Bar Holder Attachment for Power Rack 2" Review

This is a nice addition to my rack. It is solid as a rock and tightens down nicely. IT holds bars or anything else that might hang from it securely. The only negative is that on one side, the nut (which is like a big wing-nut)tightens and is perfectly parallel to the racks upright. On the other side, it tightens and is at an angle. The problem there is that if you were near the nut and not paying attention, you might catch yourself.

Safe for power lifting and bench pressing.

SPRI Weighted Fitness Bars (6 - 30 lbs) Review

I've used this type of bar in my gym and while it was more expensive than some of the other options I figured I would go with what I know. Some other reviews of other bars mentioned the length was too short and I hadn't thought of that as a potential issue with a different brand. Overall this met my expectation, just wish it cost less at the 30lb range as price jumped quite a bit from the lighter bar.

Product Description

Deluxe Elliptical Trainer Review

I recently got this elliptical. I chose this one after researching other models and websites for hours. When it got here the box was in shambles, but when I opened it everything was ok. The directions tell you it is a two person job and it most definitly is, but i was able to put it together alone and i'm a girl-so there!! The machine is extremely sturdy and well engineered. It has great balance as well. The unit is a big large and is very heavy. My only complaint is that the caps on the machine are popping off after a week of use. Over all this is a great investment at a great price. You will definitly want to use it.

Invisible Acts of Power :: Caroline Myss Review

Caroline Myss presents beautiful stories of gratitude and giving to explain how meaningful kindness can be in the life of those in need. She not only addresses financial aspects of giving, but the invisible aspects where you can encourage friends, family and even strangers you only meet once to reach for the best they can be in this lifetime.

Why do some people practice generosity as a "spiritual practice?"
What is the most appreciated type of generosity?
How can you break through fears to awaken your own generosity?
What do people regret the most?
Why do we fear giving to those less fortunate than ourselves?
How can you build someone's self-esteem by giving invisible gifts from the heart?
Why is listening an act of generosity?

Caroline Myss has profound insight into life's many complexities and in Invisible Acts of Power she explores the positive results of emotional, creative, supportive and risk generosity. She now builds additional layers on our understanding of the charkas, although you can enjoy this CD set without knowing detailed information about energetic fields (the interactive charka model at her myss site is very helpful).

What is most interesting about the ideas is how they were inspired by real-life situations and letters sent in by people connected to her website through her newsletter. This opens up a world of experience in which giving takes on practical dimensions.

I can also highly recommend:

Self Esteem: Your Fundamental Power Audio CD Set
Why People Don't Heal and How They Can
Journal of Inner Dialogue (a beautiful companion to the Archetype Cards)
Archetype Cards

It feels as if I have come full circle with Caroline Myss' teachings since I was first introduced to her wisdom through a generous friend. The CD sets make wonderful life-changing gifts that will inspire spiritual growth and moments of deep contemplation. If you are interested in using your power for good, then this essential CD set will inspire you in profound ways.

Audio Sample: Real Audio

Best-selling author Caroline Myss was pondering her next body of work when she witnessed a spontaneous act of generosity. A young man, tattooed and pierced, ran to help an older woman with a bundle of packages at the risk of missing his oncoming bus. That act, coupled with her own experience of receiving a helping hand just when she needed it, got Caroline thinking: what are the long-range consequences that result from even the smallest favors offered to others? What really takes place in the energetic field of life when someone responds to someone else in need? On Invisible Acts of Power, this three-time New York Times best-selling author employs her experience as a renowned medical intuitive to answer these questions, explaining why being of service to another person is not an optionit is a biological necessity.

Invisible Acts of Power invites listeners to learn more about:

The seven gifts of generosity and your chakras: how giving to others balances your vital energy system and sustains optimum health

Chance meetingscoincidence or synchronicity? How to recognize the Sacred Contracts that they hold, and translate the messages they bring you

The electricity of Grace: where your currents of prana (life force) intersect Divine intentionand affect every choice you make, and more

As we move from visible acts, such as caring for a friend, to invisible acts, such as prayer and healing, we act divinelywithout ...

Zafu and Zabuton Set: Zafu shape-Round Review

I recently purchased a Bean round zafu and I find it didnt live up to the claims in the least.

This zafu came shipped to me with over a pound less filling than advertised (wich wouldnt matter if the cover wasnt made so big to hold much more hulls than it came with). First thing I thought after pulling this cushion out of the box was; this thing seems nothing like the pictures. It's saggy and about half the height of all the images I've seen of it. Not to mention once you sit on it you feel all the hulls displace to give you only about 2 inches or less of lift (I weigh about 160 pounds so I dont think that weight is the problem). I'm very dissapointed in this product.

The reason I bought this was not only for the reasonable price but I thought Bean seemed like a quality company. I payed $40 for this wich does seem reasonable. It does "SEEM" reasonable. That is till you tack on the extra 11 or 12 bucks for a pound of organic hulls to fill it to the level it was advertised at.

I bought this Product from The Comfort Store. Their probably the only internet company; along with Bean of course, I will never buy from again. Unless I learn more forgiveness meditating on my rolled up towel waiting for my extra hulls.

Product Description
Here is a Zafu pillow in round or crescent (your choice) which provides better spine alignment and proper height for a more comfortable and deeper meditation. Our organic buckwheat hull filling gently conforms to your body's shape and is wrapped in an strong and untreated, unbleached, pure cotton twill shell. Our Zafu pillows are a supremely comfortable resting place from which to embark on the meditative travels of the mind and body. The all natural Zabuton mat is handmade from chemical-free GreenCotton 10oz. duck for its shell and stuffed with pure cotton batting to provide a cushioned surface for your ankles and legs for stress free meditation. Handmade in the USA. Zabuton dimensions are 30"x 30"x 2". Color options are:

Aquavee Portable Swim System Review

Was very excited when I happened to come across this system.We have a small pool in the backyard and, as a seasoned swimmer, I wanted to find some way to utilize it.Lap swimming in it would be pointless.

I received the item a couple of days ago and the other night tried it out for the first time.The item seems well made and functional.The belt is fairly comfortable, for the short time I wore it.

The four suction cups that attach to the pool tile seem strong enough, however they won't stick to tile that is not completely smooth.We have a textured tile that won't hold the cups.I don't really want to silicon plates that are provided to remedy, as the company puts it, porus surfaces.I was not aware that what I have in my pool qualified as such.

That being said I am unsure of whether I will keep the product or return it.Trying to figure out another option that might allow me not to have to glue something to the tile and change the appearence of my pool.

Product Description
Get fit in any size pool with the AquaVee® portable swim system. Designed to let you swim in place in any pool, it assembles and installs in only seconds. Secure it to the tile with the high-pressure suction cups, strap on the inflatable comfort belt, jump in and go for a swim. The elastic bands stretch out behind you in a V-pattern, offering unhindered leg and arm movement.

Nama Mala, a Garland of Divine Name Review

I was lucky enough to see a five night performance by the two lead vocalist. It was such a lovely time, they were reading from the Srimad Bhagavad Gita, and the performance was just great. I bought the CD afterward and was very pleased. It was the only CD I had for a short road-trip right after I left and we just played it over and over. I still do and just sing and sing along. I never sing in my car but its difficult not to with this lively Kirtan. Anyway buy this CD if you are into melodic mantra recitation and you are hip to Krishna, as the CD cover suggests.

MOTUS USA M-RACING INDOOR CYCLING BIKE *NRG MODEL* VOLUME PURCHASE DISCOUNT OFFER - BUY 9 & GET ONE FREE! Review

These bikes are the worst that I have ever used.The seats
can't be adjusted in 2 ways.First, they are too
stiff to move up or down.It sticks to move either way.
Second, the screws that tighten the seat in the vertical position do
not tighten enough, as if the threads are bad, and the seat
will slide down after about 5 minutes in the saddle. The numbers
are too faint to see where the position is located once you do
get the seat in the place that you want.This last complaint is
minor but irritating to the gym members.

The lever/pad tension system is very inflexible.Most of
the riders only use the first 3 settings.Anything higher
is too much and inhibits the pedal stroke to a point where
there is no benefit and danger of injury.


This isn't just one or two bikes.The gym I where I work
bought 14 of them and they all are like this.

Anatomy of Hatha Yoga Review

I am a mostly casual yogini, probably at an advanced beginner to intermediate level, but I am always interested in expanding my knowledge and improving my form. As you can see from the reviews which precede mine, this book comes highly recommended, and I must add my own kudos. Author David Coulter has done an amazing job of breaking down a huge amount of scientific information on anatomy and communicating it in a readable, relevant form. In each chapter, Coulter first presents applicable anatomical concepts and then relates these concepts to specific posture groups. He frequently guides the reader through brief asana exercises to better illustrate particular areas of focus in the body; I found these exercises to be especially helpful. Clear black and white photos accompany many of the text's asana descriptions, and the various anatomical illustrations provide supplemental information. I admit that some of the more detailed anatomical discussions were well over my head, but this is due to my own shortcomings, not those of the author. Even with this limitation, I found this book to be extremely educational; yoga teachers and more advanced practitioners are likely to derive even more benefit from this comprehensive manual.

Product Description
A manual for students, teachers, and practitioners - an authoritative and comprehensive correlation of hatha yoga with anatomy and physiology. A cornucopia of readable and reliable information by a Ph.D. anatomy professor and long-time yoga practitioner. Detailed analysis of postures, breathing, and other practices with many photos and illustrations, full glossary, and anatomical index61/4" x 91/4" / 623 pages. Hardback.

The Force of Kindness Review

"Before you know what kindness really is
you must lose things,
feel the future dissolve in a moment
like salt in a weakened broth,
What you held in your hand,
what you counted and carefully saved,
all this must go so you know
how desolate the landscape can be
between the regions of kindness.

~Naomi Shihab Nye

Sharon Salzberg presents kindness in a book about life lived with love and a CD to introduce kindness meditations. Through her work, you can learn how to bring more compassion into the world. She presents her ideas in six chapters:

Compassion in Action
Kindness Toward Ourselves
Overcoming Cruelty
How We See the World
Ethics and Kindness
The Intention of Kindness

Sharon Salzberg teaches us how to see the good inside us and to reflect on things we have done in the world that are positive and nurturing. She recommends spending 15-20 minutes a day on doing something to be kind to yourself. You can also repeat phrases like "May I live in safety," and "May I have mental happiness." She also shows how a natural sense of morality can be born from a sense of empathy and in understanding that hurting others will cause your own suffering.

How can we feel liberating joy?
What is an enlightened being?
Can you dedicate your life to kindness?
How can you become a bodhisattva?

While we all seem to move from unhappiness to happiness on a daily basis or a minute-by-minute cycle of life's ever changing circumstances, this book helps to bring us back to a more centered existence. Sharon Salzberg's teachings encourage you to live with an open heart and be a place of calm in the midst of the world's storms.

"Kindness is the foundation of unselfconscious generosity, natural inclusivity, and an unfeigned integrity. When we are devoted to the development of kindness, it becomes our ready response..." ~Sharon Salzberg

~The Rebecca Review

Product Description
In The Force of Kindness, Sharon Salzberg, one of the nations most respected Buddhist authors and meditation teachers, offers practical instruction on how we can cultivate this essential trait within ourselves.

Through her stories, teachings, and guided meditations, Sharon Salzberg takes readers on an exploration of what kindness truly means and the simple steps to realize its effects immediately. She reveals that kindness is not the sweet, nave sentiment that many of us assume it is, but rather an immensely powerful force that can transform individual lives and ripple out, changing and improving relationships, the environment, our communities, and ultimately the world. Readers will learn specific techniques for cultivating forgiveness; turning compassion into action; practicing speech that is truthful, helpful, and loving; and much more.

When we fan even the smallest ember of kindness, according to Sharon Salzberg, we begin to overcome our own fears, doubts, and personal attachmentsand tap an endless source of gentle strength that is always available to us. With her graceful writing and six guided meditations on CD, this beloved meditation master empowers readers to enhance The Force of Kindness in their own spiritual practice.
