Soul-Centered: Transform Your Life in 8 Weeks with Meditation presents a secular, mainstream view of meditation and applies it practically as a tool for personal transformation. Each week’s lesson in the 8-week program contains a key for navigating the journey of self-awareness, and each week’s meditation practice builds on those of the previous weeks, making the process accessible and enjoyable for novices and experts alike. Inspiring stories from Sarah’s own experience and from the students she’s taught in her 20-year career as a meditation teacher further enrich the text. Her approach is grounded in leading-edge brain research that shows meditating for 27 minutes a day over 8 weeks can make a huge difference by altering the gray matter in areas of the brain that govern learning, memory, empathy, and stress.

Each of the lessons in the 8-week program is designed to provide a structure for creating a successful and sustainable meditation practice. As the readers build their meditation practice, they learn to undo stressful habits that don’t serve them, cultivate compassion for themselves and others, and listen to and trust their inner wisdom.

The Soul-Centered journey is one of finding out who you really are; navigating your life based on that peaceful, loving, wise part of yourself; then fully and fearlessly expressing yourself in the world.

To be soul-centered is to “maintain a connection to the deepest part of you,” writes the author, “the part of you that is clear, peaceful, and aware in each moment.” Guided by your soul you become more accepting, calm, intuitive, secure, confident, compassionate, harmonious, happy, and able to make more conscious, “nourishing” choices. And her advice for the best way to get there? Through meditation. The 8-week lesson format that McLean offers holds a certain appeal, allowing the reader to focus on a specific theme each week—such as being in the moment, stressing less, communicating honestly, and focusing on what matters—while following the suggested practice schedule. You’ll learn meditation techniques and awareness exercises, read inspiring stories, and learn from the challenges that the author overcame in developing her own soul-centered connection. Former program director of The Chopra Center, Sarah McLean also worked for Gary Zukav and Byron Katie, and founded the Sedona Meditation Training Company.
