Laughter, Tears, Silence: Expressive Meditations to Calm Your Mind and Open Your Heart - Softcover
Synopsis
Using the principles she teaches, Pragito Dove transformed her fear and grief into joy and inner peace. Her accessible, innovative methods allow you to reap the benefits of meditation in thirty seconds, four minutes, or twenty-four hours, wherever you are and whenever you need a moment of calm. Emphasizing expression, rather than repression, of emotion, these dynamic practices can begin with a variety of movements and sounds, or with silence. Meeting practitioners where they are — in sadness, fear, stress, anger, or joy — the techniques can be done in the midst of work, play, and home life, and either alone or with others. Drawing on such traditions as Sufism and Buddhism and such teachers as the twentieth-century mystics Osho and Gurdjieff, Dove’s synthesis meets the needs of contemporary life with attention to the full range of human experience and reverence for the peace and joy possible in every moment.

Review
Demystifies meditation for beginners and inspires experienced practitioners.”
— John Gray, author of Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus
Pragito skillfully proves that there is no time when meditation is not possible and enlightenment is not imminent.”
— Michael Bernard Beckwith, author of Spiritual Liberation
Provocative, engaging and, above all, very real. Full of rich lessons in the nature of living a great life.”
— T. Harv Eker, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Secrets of the Millionaire Mind
In this useful and comprehensive book, Pragito Dove offers over one hundred techniques, including a series of expressive techniques to release physical, mental, and emotional stress. Once the lid is taken off the proverbial pressure cooker, we can more easily experience inner silence and stillness.”
— Deva Premal and Miten, musicians and recording artists

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Pulling from many traditions and offering practical applications as well as instruction and teaching tales, Pragito Dove demonstrates that meditation can start from any emotion, feeling, activity, or moment and can extend from mere seconds to hours. Each will offer benefits. Meditation can help readers clear emotional clutter, come to terms with grief, more deeply experience joy, connect more deeply to a partner, learn to let go, discover inner guidance, or simply sit and experience fully the perfect present moment. Dove's meditations are active and expressive, beginning from the premise that our bodies as well as our minds should be involved in meditating. They encompass the full range of human experience and can begin with dance, laughter, sobbing, anger, shouting, or, in the most familiar way, with silence. Offering practical applications as well as instruction and teaching tales, this title demonstrates that meditation can start from any emotion, feeling, activity, or moment and can extend from mere seconds to hours. It emphasises on meditation which can help readers clear emotional clutter, come to terms with grief, and discover inner guidance.
