The Heart's Wisdom The Heart's Wisdom (Double CD) by Bodhipaksa

This is a double CD with four mediation exercises destined to develop your empathy with other human beings (yourself, family members or friends, people we know superficially, and humankind in general). 

The CDs are accompanied by an leaflet explaining the different exercises. 

 Bodhipaksa's voice is simply wonderful. His pacing, his tone and the lack of music help the listener to enter a soft estate of meditation necessary to practice the different exercises of empathy (love and kindness, compassion, joy and Equanimity) and open your heart to the world out there. Moreover, it is extremely relaxing. 

Those people who like music in the background might not like it, but I find that true meditation is only possible with silence and a good "guru".
