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
As Head of Oncological Surgery and the Gynecology Clinic at Berlin's Charit Comprehensive Cancer Center, Jalid Sehouli is one of the world's leading cancer specialists. Every day, he experiences situations in which conversations take on a life-or-death significance. Delivering bad news is one of the most difficult tasks we face in life, especially for professionals such as doctors, police, or crisis intervention personnel, yet it is rarely touched on during training. Over the course of their career, a doctor will hold conversations with around 200,000 patients and their relatives that invariably involve delivering good or bad news. Either way, existential questions will arise, and the way the news is delivered is vital: recent studies show that it has a significant impact on patients' quality of life and the way they experience treatment. Mixing his wide-ranging professional experience with personal stories, Sehouli describes the emotions and perspectives of those who have to give and receive bad news from a broad perspective. His book can be helpful for anyone who has to deliver bad news--managers, friends, or parents. - Cover
