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.
