5.0 out of 5 stars Restored Wonderful Sleep the Healthy Way, September 6, 2009

By

This review is from: AM/PM Yoga Meditations (Audio CD)

I first purchased this AM/PM series in in 2001 through Gaiam and went looking for it again on their site. Disappointed to find it missing and EXTREMELY relieved to see that it is still here at Amazon.

I normally sleep easily but during med school, residency and fellowship there were some stretches in which our work hours were so strange that my natural rhythms were completely lost. I would get home in the day time and be unable to sleep, but likewise unable to do without sleep because the next call cycle was coming up. During this wild time I found Gael's CD.

It worked very well for me. For weeks I heard only the first 1/2 or less of the CD before I was sound asleep for the full night. If I was awakened by my pager -- I readily returned to sleep even without restarting it. But I became curious about what else was on the CD that I was sleeping through.

I finally had to wait for a longer stretch off work and an uninterupted weekend to rest. I propped myself up in broad daylight and resolved with the clear intent to listen all the way to the end -- not so easy at first because I was now conditioned to fall asleep. But I did finally hear and appreciate her full recording. My favorite part went something like "You are safe and at peace in the arms of your breath" with sounds that made the experience feel just right for me.

I have returned to her CD when stressed or long work hours interfered with sleep. For me it produces calm, healthy sleep -- not hindered by the known side effects of any of the prescription or over-the-counter sleep aides.

Thus I have also recommended it to a few patients. Some have responded very favorably as well.

However, as we all have different tastes there are likely those who may not be as pleased ... particularly those who are distracted by language or a human voice and need to meditate either in silence or with music alone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Soothing, January 21, 2007

I agree with the previous reviewer. The AM meditations were something that I really don't have any time for, but the set is worth every penny just for the PM Meditations! I use the recordings almost every night to get ready for a great night's sleep. My body feels relaxed and ready to fall asleep and I am able to let go of all of the trials of the day. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do! :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Good night sleep tight, December 26, 2008

By 

Teri Ciocco "rckwmn8" (Grand Junction, CO) - See all my reviews

This review is from: AM/PM Yoga Meditations (Audio CD)

I've had this CD for several years. I use it like medicine when my mind is too active. The meditations work so well for me that if I use the AM, then I don't need the PM because the effects last long enough. Even if you are able to meditate by yourself, this CD works well as a tune up to expand your meditative practice. This CD provides a quick clean up for an overactive mind, allowing for some mental restoration, so you can use your mental energy where it's needed and not misdirecting it when your brain should be resting.
