Abstract

This CD offers progressive muscle relaxation and healing imagery

with a background of music and sounds of nature. The listener

imagines being a pilgrim on a journey into healing, they are offered

uplifting images of strength and support, and a healing presence as

a companion. With the theme of wholeness the listener is invited to

focus on the "inner pharmacy" we all carry within. This is an image

of our ability to create substances that can calm the body, stimulate

the immune system, clear the mind and calm the spirit.

Abstract

This CD offers progressive relaxation through guided imagery with

the aid of two musical pieces called "Satie" and "Gratitude".

Soothing music underlies the sound of gentle ocean surf as the

listener experiences waves of relaxation wash over the body. The

listener is reminded that one's body knows how to sleep and that

sleep will be restful and dreams helpful. Later in the CD the listener

hears sounds of bird song, cello and harp as he/she is guided

through progressive relaxation from head to toe. The image of a

beautiful rose moves the listener to a calm still place. The words of

the metta meditation invoke a universal wish for peace and wellbeing.

Abstract

This CD provides two guided visualization using progressive muscle

relaxation and imagery. Acknowledging the power of strong

emotions, the first visualization invites the listener to experience

riding in a hot air balloon using the force of their fiery emotions to

propel them to a place of vision and finally drift safely down to land.

In the second visualization the listener experiences the supportive

and warming strength of the earth and then the freedom and

buoyancy of the water to encourage a deepening sense of

relaxation

Abstract

This CD guides the listener to practice breath work along with

autogenics, statements used repeatedly to induce a state of deep

relaxation. Listeners are encouraged to remember a time and place

in which they experienced strength and a strong centre (reframed

as 'inner healers'). The music of Pachelbel's Canon accompanies

the guided imagery of a tree. Autogenic phrases emphasize growing

in confidence and strength 'every day in every way'. The closing

image is that of energy rising through the body -- as sap through the

trunk of a tree. This helps to create a full circle of relaxation.
