Consider Waking Up by Sam Harris. Recommended by 10 sources.
“Waking Up mixes plainspoken meditation guidance, first-person reports, and philosophical reflection framed in secular terms and informed by psychology and neuroscience. Its most useful move is offering nonreligious reasons to try meditation and clear, accessible explanations for beginners. The main limitation is an argumentative, sometimes dogmatic tone on consciousness and selfhood that can feel abstract or dismissive of religious nuance. Not a hands-on training manual—better as a provocative primer and a set of talking points than as a comprehensive how-to.”
