Abstract

This CD offers relaxation through guided imagery. Just as the

hummingbird knows how to draw nurture from the flowers, so the

listener is encouraged to draw upon images in nature that are

peaceful and calming. To variations of the tune of the well-loved

song "All through the night", we are reminded how nature itself

needs to sleep. The journey continues with progressive muscle

relaxation, the sound of gentle waves and finally the lovely mantra

"I am calm, I am peaceful, I am loved and I am healing". It ends

with guitar music and humming lull the listener further into restful

sleep.

Abstract

In this CD, Dr. Nelems describes the detrimental effects of

persistent stress and anxiety on the immune system and how

favourable immune responses can be created by evoking the

relaxation response. A progressive muscle relaxation follows using

the breath to help release the tensions and anxieties of the day in

order to prepare for restful sleep (Sunset). It also introduces the

dynamic process of relaxation that allows us to become actively

involved in our healing journey and to interact in a healing way with

the inspiring images of nature?s renewal seen in day break or the

return of spring.
