Over the past ten years, former Questa del Rio News editor Lou McCall has been working on perfecting her newly published book, “Meditation for Everyone: Your Secular Guide to Spiritual Growth.”

Through her book, she works to break down the transformative power of meditation, designed to reach people of all backgrounds and beliefs. In this book you’ll discover practical techniques and ancient insights that demystify the practice, making it relevant and achievable in today’s fast-paced world.

McCall works to answer important questions from people who may have taken interest in meditation but have not experienced it first-hand, including: Who can meditate? What methods work best for you? When and where can you practice effectively? Why is meditation crucial for personal growth and a peaceful world? And how can you integrate it seamlessly into your daily life?

Whether you’re a curious beginner or looking to deepen your existing practice, McCall provides clear, step-by-step instructions, engaging anecdotes, and evidence-based benefits. Dive into the timeless world of mindfulness and self-discovery, free from dogma and accessible to all. Embrace the journey toward greater awareness, peace, personal fulfillment, and better health—because meditation is for everyone.

Practicing meditation for 50 years at this point, McCall recalls she first began her meditative practices in college. “Meditation helps me make life easier. It’s a natural ability we all have and it improves my life,” she says.

The paperback version of the book is available on Amazon for $14. “I wanted this to be accessible for people; it doesn’t have to break the bank to find solace in meditation. It’s readily available to anyone who is willing to still their thoughts, minds, and hearts, and find stillness and serenity in simply being.”
