I listened to a lot of Shinzen! Helped me very much in some tough moments.

Listening to somebody on the internet is not the same as having them around, but it sure helped me clarify some things.

That’s good! I also don’t understand Shinzen’s system, but I have many friends who recommend him highly.

Honestly I don't think I do either. But just feeling less alone and trying some of the exercises helped a lot.

I don’t know for sure, but suspect that he may teach by Skype, if that is feasible & attractive for you.

Some teachers of his system, for example
@OortCloudAtlas (who does the@DeconstructingU podcast) definitely do, in any case.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -
I'll think about it. I had some tough time with getting situation under control, so I'm probably not going to jump into practice right away.

By the way, can you recommend a book that would help me get more familiar with buddhist terminology and popular models/systems?

I don’t know of a good overview. It’s probably best to think of “Buddhisms” as a family of religions as diverse as “the Biblical religions”
