New York Times bestselling author and hip-hop mogul, Russell Simmons, tackles the topic of meditation in his newest book “Success Through Stillness: Meditation Made Simple,” showing the connection between inner peace and outward success. Simmons shares how meditation has had a major effect on his own life and success, and what he’s learned from masters of the practice.

“Sitting in silence for 20 minutes can be a tool to wash away the pain, frustration and insecurities that have been coloring your existence and allow you to get back to the state of happiness that is your birthright,” Simmons says in the beginning of the book. “The path that I will lay out in this book represents the simplest route between your current state and that happiness.”

He also interviews other successful leaders in a variety of industries. Whether a beginner or advanced meditator, this book aims to help readers find greater clarity and focus, and become healthier in mind and body.

“This is a simple and straightforward guide on how to use the tool of meditation to get the most our of your life – written with the authority of someone who has used that very tool every day for the past fifteen years himself,” Simmons said.
