I consider Shinzen Young’s audiobook the best on the meditation topic. This audio is total of about 16 hours. Couple of hours speech, then 2 meditations of about 40 minutes each, and then next speeches and then meditations etc. I think this is worth consideration if you need some assistance in enhancing your meditation skills.
