Practical Meditation by Steve Hounsome
This is a book of meditation exercises with the emphasis on the practical. There are many books on the mystical nature of meditation, but few which assist us to learn to use meditation in our daily lives, to help reduce tension and stress, and promote better responses in mind and body, as well as spirit. Practical Meditation separates meditation techniques into easily defined areas, such as breathing exercises, relaxation techniques and healing meditations. There is a full section on learning to 'ground' oneself so that you can keep your feet firmly on the ground and functioning to your best in the everyday world. This book aims to take the mystery out of meditation, making this ancient practice available to an ever-widening group of people. The meditations are explained in terms which are easy to understand and are written for people from all walks of life who are showing an increased interest in the subject. This books outlines the who, what, why, where, when and how of meditation for everyday use and life.
Steve has been involved in this field for thirty years now and has completed a wide variety of studies and activities in this time. Steve has also attended lectures and workshops too numerous to mention over the years and continues to add to his knowledge and experience by attending events as they occur and maintaining his own regular sacred practices in Meditation, Yoga and Chi Kung. Steve has had articles published in many magazines, on a variety of the subjects he works in. These include Positive Health and Pagan Dawn, as well as many of the smaller titles produced in the Pagan and holistic communities. Steve has appeared on TV, twice alongside Derek Acorah on Granada TV's show 'Psychic Livetime' and acted as examiner on the Living TV series 'Jane Goldman Investigates', overseeing the work of Michelle Knight who taught the Tarot to Jane. Steve acted as advisor and consultant for the New World 'Music of the Tarot' CD, for which he also wrote the accompanying booklet.

Steve's approach to spirituality is an eclectic one, as he feels that every path has something to offer. He reads widely on spiritual subjects and incorporates what he learns into his teaching, in its various forms.
