This review is from: Meditations for Entering the Temples on the Other Side (Audio CD)
Not only do I adore Sylvia but I am a huge fan of meditating so this cd was so much fun for me. There are about 23 short meditations and a relax technique in the beginning to carry you through all or your select choices of meditations.
I do feel this is more of an informative cd (not so much guided) bc half of the meditations give you a clear visual of where you are and a basic "this is the purpose of this temple" kind of thing. So it is easy to go back later in your mind and picture that temple so you can take it at your own pace with your own choice of relaxing music or not, depending your favorite meditating styles.
I really enjoy this set and highly recommend it.
cd 1 - relax technique followed by 8 meditations
cd 2 - 7 meditations
cd 3 - 8 meditations

I think these CD's are great. They are very relaxing and provide great visuals for mediation. I purchased this set over a month ago and on numerous occasions I've found myself taking out my other CD's to put these back in because they are so much better. I really enjoy them I hope you do to.

Angels and Imps, December 30, 2008
This review is from: Meditations for Entering the Temples on the Other Side (Audio CD)
Let me begin by saying Sylvia Browne is a very gifted woman and has given much to many by way of her admirable work. That said, of the many gifts Sylvia Browne possesses, voice quality is not among them. I eagerly unpacked the CDs from this collection and slapped one into the CD drive, sitting back in my favorite chair, ready for a spiritual adventure that would, hopefully, equal no other. A soft, svelte voice came over the speakers to announce the content of the CD, a tone so sweet and dulcet its owner could only have origin from within the heavens. Relaxing tones of music began to play and swell, setting a mood not unlike goose feathers, warm blankets, and cuddly cherubs: when from the depths of some hellish hole issued the voice of Sylvia Browne, raspy, as if she'd smoked twenty packs of cigarettes a day for the past three hundred and fifty years; pitchy, as if some feverish imp had her by the throat squeezing her life away with its gnarly clawed nails; grating, like course sandpaper on the spine, wearing down each and every nerve along the way until it arrived at a shocked and sorely disappointed soul; ethnic, with an accent reminiscent of the stereotypical Jewish, Brooklyn cadence (although it is my understanding Ms. Browne curiously hails from Missouri); comical, nearly, once understood that the idea was to actually `relax' under these impossible, if not assailing conditions.
If you are a die-hard Sylvia Browne fan and are already familiar with this woman's voice and find some bizarre form of comfort in it, then by all means, get out the charge card and sail on. If, however, you have never heard this woman speak, do yourself a favor and listen to a voice clip online before you decide to make this purchase. One: You won't be eligible for a full return once the package has been opened and, Two: When you're expecting a lullaby and get Maxwell's Silver Hammer instead, it can come as such a horrible shock to the spirit that it could very well take years of therapy to repair the damage.
