This CD uses breath work, images and affirmations to support deep

relaxation. The listener is asked to imagine a healing light, which is

then woven into a cloak of empowering words and images. Breath is

used to create a calming effect on the body. The listener is asked to

imagine a meadow and the flight of a dove over a variety of pleasing

landscapes. Throughout the CD the listener is encouraged to rest

and relax.

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

"Diagnosketch is a visual aid to explain medical diagnoses to patients at the bedside. It uses simplified images to illustrate complicated anatomy and concepts. The title, 'Diagnosketch,' combines the term 'diagnosis,' with the term, 'sketch,' paralleling the way the book combines a medical diagnosis with a simplified sketch. It includes common pathologies seen in an acute care setting, especially ones that are easier to explain with pictures"-- Provided by publisher

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.
