It is this pure and luminous state that I call your Wildmind'.

  Developed from the on-line meditation course, this book gets you started straight away, offering a practical approach to meditation for complete beginners. Wildmind is as spacious as a clear blue sky, as still as a lake at dawn; such a mind is a source of richness and fulfilment. It is a mind that is free, spontaneous and abundantly creative. This is a guidebook to that inner wilderness. Here, the reader can discover: how to sit for meditation and a posture workshop; walking meditation, body awareness and relaxation; thorough guidelines to two traditional meditations; how and why regular meditation can help and how to bring its results into everyday life; and trouble shooting tips and ideas developed by Bodhipaksa and his students over many years.
