The Path to Stillness is simply the best darn book that I've read on the subject of meditation, period! It is packed with modern research on the subject and flavored with the ancient philosophy that we associate with contemplative practices. The book is light-hearted and humorous in one moment then deeply profound in the next. A true joy to read! -- John Giancarlo, Jin Shin Jyutsu Acupressure Therapist, LMT Senior Master Level Martial Arts instructor, Educator, and forty-year practitioner of Japanese and Tibetan meditation Stillness is a superpower! Everyone has tried meditation, and most have failed. The reason for failure comes down to not having proper guidelines and expectations of the practice. Adam clearly lays out the why's and how's of mediation so that the practitioner can get a clear understanding of the process and benefits gained from a daily practice. -- Sifu Harinder Singh, Kung Fu Master, Author, & High-Performance Coach I like the layout of his book from the definition of mediation to the benefits and structure of mediation. Adam has created a book that is easy to share with clients because it is easy for the busy individual to review, implement, and if so inclined, further understand the art of meditation and the range of benefits from this practice. -- Kate Miller, Associate Certified Coach, Executive Coach Opening this guide is like sitting down with an old friend and having a spiritual retreat from the comfort of wherever you're reading. Adam has successfully transcribed his live training into a tool to be shared broadly. -- Sarah Popiel, Wellness Program Manager With Adam Brady's real-life experience of transformation via meditation, combined with his rich education and teaching in the field, he is uniquely able to inform and compel a reader toward the profound timeless practice like few others. With a topic that can often be difficult to grasp, the clarity of his writing style, and the way information is presented, makes reading this book especially enjoyable, informative and truly inspiring. -- Amanda Ree, Chopra Certified Vedic Educator & Founder of Sama Dog: Wellbeing for Dogs + Their Humans On my quest for inner peace and a quiet mind, Adam Brady has been extremely beneficial and helpful as a guide for me. He's made meditation easy to accept and understand and he's been extremely encouraging and supportive along the way. I am grateful for his guidance and continued support. -- Jonathan Burke, Head Coach, Tactical Jiu-Jitsu Instructor at The VI Levels Orlando and Royce Gracie's 1st black belt You will feel calm just reading this book. He is gentle and assuring, strong and pragmatic, and experienced and confident. You can feel his support of YOUR meditation journey, and you will feel empowered to practice and succeed! -- Melissa Feldman, Holistic Health Practitioner, Yoga, Meditation, Breathing, and Zen Shiatsu Instructor This book has been well thought out, is easy to read, AND a must read for those who are looking to experience a more colorful and fulfilling life. -- Laura Giancarlo, Science and Health Educator, Martial Artist, student of mediation and acupressure therapy and Resilience Coach/Mentor in training I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in developing a meditative practice, and specifically for martial artists. -- JB MuSsang Jaeger, Maryland Jeet Kune Do
