Mindfulness in Plain English
by Henepola Gunaratana

Mindfulness explains, in detail, the methods and practices associated with the Vipassana style of meditation. From instructions on attitude, practices, goals, breathing, and distractions the book is a very informative guide to mindfulness. It explains that meditation is designed to create a state of non-attachment with no room for thoughts or emotion. True mindfulness is achieved through concentration that is developed by will power. This book is a very thorough and straightforward way for a beginner to learn the practices of meditation through an easy text. This book was very helpful for me and I would recommend it to someone beginning meditation.
