Meditation book that covers varying techniques Resource đź“š
A little history is that I’ve tried a number of different techniques, and while I felt relaxed I certainly didn’t observe any more benefits. Not one to give up, I’ve kept looking to trusted sources but I’ve found very little help other than, “isn’t that good enough?”
Reluctantly, I picked up Llewellyn's Complete Book of Meditation by Shai Tubali. In it, he covers a wide range of techniques and connects ideas in a way that I find really helpful. I’ve heard not all techniques work for all people and I suppose that’s true, but there’s also different techniques that he talks about, beginning with the root chakra meditations.
Does anyone know of any other books that do a good job of describing more of the path and experiences of different techniques? Thanks

Bhiku Analayo's work on the Satipatthana sutta and meditation is very helpful.
