 Helpful recordingJul 13, 2008
I had some autogenic tapes and they finally tangled in my old tape player, so I joined the modern world and got some CD's. I find this recording very easy to use, the voice is soothing and the harp work is not distracting. Takes you through a basic program. I ended up buying other CDs by the same author.
nice cdJun 22, 2008
While this cd is obviously tailored towards a stress filled society and is to be recommended for that I personally enjoy the relaxing music [...]. The two cds I possess have a variety of stunning sounds tailored towards the relaxation market which I can recommend anyone looking into this particular genre. These cds are highly recommended
 Great RelaxerMay 09, 2008
I cannot remember a time when I was not tense, and it has manifested itself in chronic insomnia. I have been using this CD for a few weeks now and while it has not yet "fixed" the isomnia it does the job of relaxing the body. I never quite realized just how tense the body was until this CD. The recommended use is twice a day but I've only managed to use it once a day. There have been days when I haven't used it at all. Making time is the issue. Dr. McManus' voice is EXTREMELY soothing, the harp music in the background is EXTREMELY soothing. My goal is to discipline myself to use it the prescribed 2X/day. It is a wonderful product and you won't be sorry.
Works for me!Jun 11, 2007
I know that not every product or technique works for everyone, but I found this CD to be extremely helpful. Since I've received it, I play this CD as I'm getting ready for my nightly battle into sleep. It's only been about a week, but I haven't made it through the entire CD yet! I fall asleep! Funny, because I bought it to help with migraines, and have just been "practicing" with it.
A nice way to get to sleepMay 17, 2007
I used this CD for several months last year during a very stressful period. I was suffering from insomnia due to the stress I was under and I would put my headphones on before turning out the lights. I don't think I ever made it to the end of either side before falling asleep. I found the backgroud music very soothing, not annoying and the gently guided relaxation exercises were very effective.
I did try listening once in the car and found that it was not such a great idea. It might work for someone else, but I found that having my eyes shut and lying in my bed was the ideal setting for this CD.
If you're under stress and really having a difficult time unwinding, give this a try.
