Excellent - definitely a 'sleeper' product!.......2007-04-08

I am a meditation teacher and work one-on-one with clients in the capacity of a personal growth coach. I have taught physiology at the graduate level and in addition have a graduate education in psychology. As part of my background, I work regularly with biofeedback for relaxation and I have had sleep related disorders myself. I think these things make me an ideal candidate to fairly evaluate this product.

When I received this CD, I wasn't expecting much. I own many similar CDs and while they are helpful, many of them are disappointingly similar and often ineffective. This is CD is different. It is well thought out, organized in such a way to produce a maximal effect and uses techniques that are effective and not just superficially presented.

Specifically, this CD uses a combination of gentle harp music along with two specific techniques, progressive relaxation and a relaxation body scan. Each of these is thoroughly presented in two back-to-back 30 minutes segements. Also, there is a lot of psychological suggestions to set the appropriate atmosphere mentally and the instructions are very detailed.

The author has a soothing voice, presents the material at just the right pace and gradually helps you to slow down so that your bodies natural ability to fall asleep kicks in. While these tapes might not help everybody, they will certainly help many people to fall asleep, stay asleep or deeply relax.

This CD represents one of the finest products in this genre that I know of. While it is not a panacea for sleep problems which sometimes have an organic cause, it is certainly a very useful tool at an attractive price point. While a 5 is the highest rating I can give, I want to convey that it has enough merit to warrant a long review and my strong endorsement. It is actually difficult for me to listen to it without falling asleep even when I want to for review purposes!

Introduction
Fifteen Minute Guided Relaxation
Forty Five Minute Guided Relaxation

Product Description

The two guided relaxation sequences on this recording are inspired by the ancient practice of Yoga Nidra, which means yogic sleep. Simply lie back and listen while you are guided to a place of profound physical and mental rest. As the tension melts away, the body regains its natural state of wellness, and the mind enters a pre-dream state between sleep and consciousness. Here you gain access to the fertile ground of your own subconscious. Through regular practice of yoga nidra you can indeed unlock and harness your creative potential. Steve Wolf has been a mind-body instructor for over 18 years, and his live Yoga Nidra classes have received rave reviews. This CD is the next best thing to being there in person.

Customer Reviews:

Good job!.......2006-11-22

I train yoga teachers from around the world, and I use this CD as a tool to demonstrate how to present yoga nidra in a yoga class. I encourage the teachers to purchase the CD and then emulate Steve's pacing, tone of voice, and content. His voice is soothing and unpretentious, and you will feel as if he is right there with you. He's done a super job with this CD and I recommend it for anyone who wants to "relax deeply." Enjoy!

Wow!.......2006-11-17

Two enthusiastic thumbs up! Get one for yourself and give one as a gift!

Deeply relaxing.......2006-11-13

I love the voice that enables me to unwind quickly. I specially found the guidance provided in the cd to be useful in helping me get into and remain in the meditative state. The cd leaves me deeply relaxed each time I listen to it. I would recommend it for anyone who needs a tool to relieve stress from their daily lives.

Just beautiful!.......2006-11-10

I have three yoga nidra CD's and this is now my favorite. Steve's voice is extremely relaxing, the sequence is beautifully presented and the music adds just the right touch, but not too much. I lent it to my mother after the loss of my father and she said it saved her during the times when she could not relax. I am a mother and teacher and I use it whenever I can to recharge my batteries. I am thankful to have this CD!
Mary Davis, mother, piano teacher, registered yoga instructor

Very Relaxing!.......2006-11-09

This is the best relaxation cd I have tried. I am a very busy mom and just need some down time. I can easily fit in the 15 minute segment when the kids are sleeping.

Four Hours of realxing sounds........2007-06-29

Wow! four hours of relaxing sounds. My favorite is the Summer in the Park and the Whales CD. My only complaint is the name: "The Best of Nature" -Train is not part of nature, but I did find the Train CD relaxing.
