The Meditation Yearbook is the ultimate guide to exploring and developing a sustainable and fun meditation practice that will enrich reader’s lives. Organized into six themed chapters, 52 different meditations are explained with at a glance sections highlighting its benefits, followed by a clear and easy to follow guide on exactly how to practice the meditation. Designed to be calming, uplifting and engaging, The Meditation Yearbook can be used in a multitude of ways depending on the needs of the reader – either as a year long journey into all the different types of meditation, or as a fun exploratory tool to introduce them to new meditation styles. As a practice, meditation has significant mental health benefits such as for stress reduction, anxiety management, improving memory and battling intrusive thoughts, but it also has proven physical benefits. Meditation has been shown to help improve the quality of sleep, support lowering of blood pressure, and aid in strengthening the immune system and a bodies response to stress. And yet... making meditation part of daily life can be tricky. When we’re constantly on the go and bombarded with responsibilities, finding the time to meditate can seem impossible, not to mention a little dull to our overstimulated 21st century minds. In The Meditation Yearbook, author Joey Hulin finds the perfect solution to these problems and offers 52 weeks of meditations that make exploring this ancient practice fun, varied and inspiring. Looking at everything from the mind-body connection to Vipassana meditation, this year long tour of meditative practice encourages constant growth and is the perfect way to make meditation part of your life.

Lu-Tze is a senior History Monk, also known as Sweeper. Although thought to be 800 years old, there are some who claim he is older yet . . . 5,200 years older, in fact, because for the History Monks, time is a resource to manipulate, and they do . . . Lu-Tze, a bald, yellow-toothed little man with a wispy beard, has a faintly amiable grin, as if constantly waiting for something amusing to happen, and a handy epithet for every occasion. In his life, Lu-Tze has done everything, and his past deeds are legend amongst the History Monks. He is a follower of The Way of Mrs Marietta Cosmopilite. He also grows Bonsai mountains. LU-TZE'S YEARBOOK OF ENLIGHTMENT (including The Way of Mrs Cosmopilite) is the ideal companion for those seeking truth and harmony and, well, the meaning to life - though he doesn't guarantee it will be the right meaning . . .
