In One-Moment Meditation: Stillness for People on the Go, Martin Boroson distils the practice of meditation into an exercise that does not require hours of training or severe spiritual discipline, and fits within our fast-pased lifestyles. His radical approach starts with an exercise that takes just one minute a day. With practice, this takes less and less time … until you can do it in just a moment.

      Boroson, who has an MBA from Yale, combines his Zen training and psychotherapy background in One-Moment Meditation to present a self-paced, realistic and effective program – perfect for active people leading hectic lives.

       “This simple and direct approach to meditation was born when I realized that what matters most in meditation is not the quantity of time but the quality of our attention. With the right outlook and tools, we can meditate in a very short amount of time. We can tap into deep peace whenever we have a free moment,” states Boroson.

      The book presents a step-by-step program of exercises that will enable you to notice the moment, be in the moment, and tap into the enormous potential of each moment. So wherever you are – waiting in traffic, changing a diaper, standing in a long line at the bank – you can grab a moment of meditation. No matter how hectic life seems, you can stop, refresh yourself, and become present – transforming a life that feels crowded and rushed to one that feels spacious and full of opportunity. You realize that every moment offers a chance – no matter how harried or anxious you feel – to experience deep peace.

      Boroson’s playful and practical techniques remind us that peace is available and accessible right now, in this very moment. And if not now, when?
