"Val Rogers has created a collection of meditations for the beginner and adept. Through colorful imagery, she takes us into the heart of the earth's elements. The artwork reflects the beauty and energy of each meditation offering "the beauty way", where we delve into our relationship with the earth, her elements all leading to self-transformation, deeper personal insights for everyday living, and most of all strengthening our interconnectedness to this beautiful planet. This worthy collection enhances our daily practices and is one that will be used often."

"If you have been hesitant to give meditation a try, do yourself a favor and read this book. Val's ability to de-mystify meditation makes it approachable and accessible to everyone. Her step-by-step approach to settling into the subtle body is brilliant ... how she blends the four elements, goddess magic and beautiful art with her guided meditations is an extraordinary way to guide the mind toward stillness."                           ~ Sara Daves - author of Manifest Like a Goddess

"Linda Tracy's paintings perfectly complement the meditation practices in this book, evoking qualities of peace, serenity, and oneness. Each work was carefully chosen and skillfully woven into the fabric of the meditation it accompanies with an interpretation by the author. Ms. Tracy's art makes you FEEL what you see by opening your heart and mind to the realm of the possible."

~ Cheryl Chase - Meditation practitioner and art enthusiast

"The pastels of Linda Tracy chosen by author Val Rogers to accompany A Pagan's Path to Meditation have a dream-like quality that invite the viewer to step into the painting, feel the mist, bathe in the tranquility, muse and explore the many paths of beauty available to the meditator."

 ~ Dr. Dara Blackstone, Music Professor & Conductor

"A longtime admirer of Linda Rondeau Tracy's art, I was moved to see it married with Val Rogers' beautiful guided meditations. To be asked to focus on, for example, a snow-covered cabin in Linda's artistry is hardly a challenge. It's a joy to imagine the warmth and welcome she'd conjure inside. Or the adventure of a bubbling stream. Or the downy protection of a feather."
