I really wanted to like this seminar, but...

What did you like about this audiobook?

I've unfortunately purchased others from him in the hopes that the flashes of insight he rarely provides would be developed more in other seminars, but alas...no. I won't purchase anymore from him.

How has the book increased your interest in the subject matter?

Talk less about his financial woes, his struggles about purchasing a car, rambling asides that stray completely from the topic of the seminar. To punctuate the first 40 minutes of the seminar with occasional statements like

Does the author present information in a way that is interesting and insightful, and if so, how does he achieve this?

I wish he did.

What did you find wrong about the narrator's performance?

Frankly, I found his accent (his real name is J. Donald Walters, but chooses to speak with an Indian accent that wasn't cultivated from being raised in India) an unnecessary affect that rang false to me. I could definitely understand if he was born and raised in India, but this is not the case, and it was another aspect that took the focus of the topic away from this listener.

Do you have any additional comments?

I genuinely love the yoga seminars that Audible offers, and I would love a larger varied selection of speakers on topics such as this. There has to be other speakers that can stay on topic without the frustrating distractions that I experienced in attempting to listen to this.
