Meditation has been recommended as the solution to all kinds of problems. It's been presented as a way to alleviate stress, to solve psychological problems, to improve your health, and to attract more wealth into your life.

Most people that have been meditating for a long time have figured out that there are better ways to do most of those things, but still we meditate.

Why?

Sally Kempton is a veteran meditator with more than 40 years on the clock. She includes people like Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love as her students. She's written a brilliant new book called Meditation for the Love of It, which eloquently explains the very best reason to practice mediation: because it's absolutely one of the most pleasurable things you can do.

Please join Arjuna Ardagh and Sally Kempton for a rich and detailed exploration of the journey of meditation.
