Thanks guys.
Matt: Its a book based on a program but Im just reading the book. Perhaps me using the word program was unwise. My treatment involves my Doctor, my cousellor, my family, this forum and whatever else I find helpful (freedom is a great thing).
I think the idea is that meditating helps still the mind and that the benefits are felt when not sitting in formal meditation but later when things spiral out of control.
You're probably not really wondering but have an opinion already, thats fine we all have them.
have a good day.
