 Scammer extraordinaire... September 7, 2008
1 out of 5 found this review helpful
After 4 or 5 ex-wives emotionally and physically 'enslaved' by Wayne Dyer, I know the 'spin' he expounds for the $,$$$,$$$... SOOOOO sad that he twists the truths of the universe (whatever those are) to his slimey advantage.
Better to return to raw simple truths (like the Dalai Lama, Thich Nan, Tao, etc) instead of promoting this shyster. His ex-wives could tell you he's a bossy abusive pr*ck. Sorry if this is disillusioning, but as most 'gurus' are fake... this guy happens to be a TOTAL fake. So Sorry :(
The epitome of cr*p on TV.

Getting in the Gap: Making Conscious Contact with God Through Meditation (Book with CD)Excellent! The choice of a 10 or 20 minute meditation allows me to meditate even when time is "tight". The tonal quality is excellent and the instructions are easy to follow.

I enjoyed this book very much. It explained step by step what the Gap is and how to get there. It also uses "The Lord's Prayer" which is so important to me. Dr. Dyer is very good at teaching meditation and bringing in our Christian beliefs.

There are many ways to learn how to meditate. I found this one to be easy to follow and with practice I can see it being a great help. Its basic and to the point. I found reading the book first helpful in being aboe to follow the cd.

I discovered Wayne Dyer's a couple years ago at a time when I really needed him. Since then I have read all of his books. I read Getting in the Gap over a year ago and spent 30 minutes reading it again this morning. Short, simple and to the point, this book and CD are particularly useful as an introduction to meditation. The idea is to be able to use the "Gap" between the times that you are doing things to reach sanctuary from your thoughts. I used the CD once and realized this Japa style meditation was so simple, the CD is not required a second time.
The meditation asks you to repeat a portion of the Lord's Pray several times and then slip into the "Gap" between the words, concentrating on that space. When intruding thoughts come to mind use the sound "Ah" as a chant to help you focus on the silence. The meditation style is intended to reach a peace of mind, rejuvenate, gain insight, relax, and improve performance.
I recommend this book for beginners. For those looking for an alternative, I recommend Mindfulness Meditation. See my other reviews for some good books on that subject.
