Book Reviews of Meditations for Relaxation and Stress Reduction
Book Review: Good Introductory CD
Summary: 4 Stars
Although I felt somewhat silly listening to this CD in my car when first playing it because of the relaxation mantras, I must say it was quite helpful towards inducing a calming and relaxing feeling. The CD has two stress reduction tracks whereby the author calmly and melodically walks you through each progressive relaxation exercise while gentle, meditative music plays in the background. The second track involves stretching exercises so it is not helpful when driving.
Lacking however, are recommendations and expectations by the PhD'd, best selling author of the CD about how to benefit most from the techniques. No mentions is made as to how often one should listen to the techniques, when and where they should be used and how quickly one can expect to incorporate these techniques into their daily lives. The CD simply jumps right into the exercises and then they are over.
Overall, I recommend this CD as an introduction to relaxation/stress reduction techniques.
