Product Description: Product Description: Mindfulness has been shown in clinical trials to be an effective way of reducing stress. It is a form of focused awareness that helps to prevent the runaway thinking that gives rise to physical and emotional hyper-arousal. The two meditations on this CD help us to develop this transformative quality of mindfulness, by means of which we practice acceptance of our present-moment experience in a non-judgmental way.
Although the meditations on this CD are Buddhist in origin, they can be practiced by people who follow any spiritual tradition or none at all.
plesantly peaceful Meditation is a new experience for me. This CD was a perfect enterance to a very plesant relief from all of the daily stresses. I use it everyday.
Guided Meditations for Stress Reduction The voice on the CD is not at all soothing. I expected a soothing far eastern accent and got a harsh, Scottish accent. I recommend buying the CDs narrated by Shakti Gawain herself.
I love this guy This guy's voice really relaxes me. There is no music on the CD. It is only his calming voice that helps you relieve stress and relax. I highly recommend this!
Highly recommend I initially purchased this for stress reduction and found his accent and voice so soothing it helps me with stress reduction AND sleep - it is wonderful. The last track on Acceptance is great to listen to after a stressful day and you're sleep cycle is off. Recommend this for anyone with a medical condition that is exacerbated by stress or loss of sleep (Fibromyalgia, Joint/Back pain, Elhers Danlos)
A Good Strating Point A good starting point for those interested in meditation as a means of reducing stress. I found the CD a little short - two half hour sessions. But both sessions are helpful and calming. I use these meditations before going to bed on nights when I fear I will have difficulty sleeping.
