4.0 out of 5 stars Fun but no zone., November 14, 2008
By 
Alex G. Lee (Irvine, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Breakthrough Training (Audio CD)
This review refers to the MP3 version from BrainSync website.

The guided meditation will take some time to get used too. Unlike most of Kelly's music which consist of phrases like, "close your eye, relax"; "breath, let go"...this is a little different. First Kelly's voice is more playful and faster. The guided meditation is more like a story, it starts out with meeting a stranger, something about desire, dreams, drinking nectar, and becoming like a humming bird; each scene is separated by music (I suppose interlaced with diurnal beats). It's a little corny but strangely enchanting at the same time, especially when the music slows down and she starts to narrate about the nectar and dreams. In general it's fun to listen to.

I tried experimenting with it, for example, can this put me into "the zone" during exercising; for me it's a no. In fact I felt a little further from the zone while listening to it. Can it wake me up when I feel like taking nap in the afternoon? The answer is also no, in fact I don't recommend listening to this while you are sleepy, somehow the faster beats conflict with the desire to sleep and it could cause a headache. I recommend Jeffrey Thompson's Nap cd (10 min, 20 min instead), also Kelly's High Focus cd seem to help as well.

On side note: I was a little worry about the MP3 format since this is a lossy compression which could potentially negate some of subtlety of the diurnal beats; customer service is virtually nonexistent and did not get back to me on this simple question. However on the brainsync FAQ it states that there is no loss in overall quality. I was also disappointed that bit rate was only 192 kbps: the company should have given the option for higher bit rate or even an option for lossless format download. Most CD's on amazon are the same price as the MP3 download from the website, so I would recommend purchasing the CDs instead. For this reason I give the product 4 stars BUT customer service 1 which is both ironic and sad that the company does not practice what it preaches.

In general however, for me this album was fun to listen to while walking and I am very glad I purchased it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Sorta Helpful, January 21, 2010
By 
This review is from: Breakthrough Training (Audio CD)
Not what I expected. I thought this would be like an exercise coach, but instead it sounds like a guy trying to urge you to spiritually succeed in any area. Which is good, but when you are exercising it makes you think of other things you'd like to do with your life on a spiritual level. I don't need a spiritual coach, I need someone who shouts "move your body" and "feel the burn".
