When I first bought this cassette 2 years ago, I put it on softly on my reversible cassette player to listen throughout the night. For about a week I woke up with "dunes" of sand in my eyes so I must have been crying a lot in my sleep. Louise has an incredibly warm, comforting voice and she obviously knows a lot about psychology, which she applies to wonderful effect in a very loving way. The first meditation is called Your Healing Light, and it's just her voice with piano and a bit of synth. It's a perfect intro and I have subsequently been using it as a soundtrack for when I give reiki healing treatments. The meditations follow one another like golden sonic waves, all of them addressing some vital issue or another. Many of the beautiful phrases have stuck in my mind, like "there's a part of you that is more than your past, more than your relationships and more than your personality ..." and "I move from success to success, from joy to joy and from abundance to abundance" and "I am open and receptive to all good." This tape also taught me how to forgive people that I did not want to forgive or did not know how. After about 2 weeks I experienced a dramatic improvement in my outlook on life. I have subsequently moved on to far more technologically advanced cassettes (Eldon Taylor & Paul Scheele) but for sheer human warmth and understanding, nobody comes close to Louise Hay. I would strongly recommend this cassette to anybody who has been abused in any way or who is depressed or feels helpless. It is uncanny, but I think there a type of vibration emanating from this cassette, which is more than the sum total of her voice and her words.

I am a HUGE fan of Louise Hay and her teachings, and I have quite a few of her CDs, my favorite being "Overcoming Fears." There is something so soothing about that CD, even though the music is a bit dated and has that 80s New Age sound, but it works. For me anyway.

That's the great frustration I'm experiencing with this CD for Personal Healing. The music is a synthesized piano and it sounds so harsh and tinny at times. It's actually intrusvie and is in great contrast to Louise's gentle, loving voice. I have tried again and again to work with this CD, and while I LOVE Louise's messages, I really have to work to get past the irritating music, which just sets me on edge. It's very frustrating because I'd really like to be in harmony with the brilliant ideas and affirmations, but the music is not in harmony with the spoken artist. It does not accompany or support Louise. It is a distraction and almost feels like the musician is fighting to wrest focus from her, and that's very difficult to listen to. I hate to say it but I would not recommend this CD.

This is fantastic! Each of the meditations is beautiful and only 5 to 7 minutes long (there are about 13, covering all different topics from prosperity to relaxation to healing your body, etc.). The one about discovering your inner child makes me cry (I am not the kind to easily break down, but it truly is beautiful). I sometimes just put this in when I am driving and listening to Louise's soothing voice calms me right down. You will feel so much love in your heart when you're done listening.

I really like Louise Hay and think these meditations are great. But there are two things that make it difficult for me to listen to this on a regular basis.

First, the electronic music is very difficult to listen to and ignore so it's hard to get past that. I wish Louise would re-record this with more pleasant, non-electronic music.

Second, there are several five-minute meditations; but the CD is only broken down into two tracks so it's difficult to just listen to a few of my favorite meditations. It would have been so much nicer to have each meditation be a track of its own.

In my opinion, everything that Louise Hay has written has been wonderful. Her very simplistic and down to earth writing really works for me. Since 1988, I have read Louise's books and listened to her tapes and CD's. When I first listened to this CD, I was amazed at how much it works for me and how soothing Louise's voice is! This CD gives you practical help in everyday WELLNESS and HEALTH and HEALING. And because I feel that Louise Hays teachings, CD's and books really work for me, I own 14 of them! And This CD really works for me and I have it to use when needed. Thanks Louise!

I just listened to the sample audio book before buying and found the volume of the music so intrusive that the desire to buy the audio book vanished! The thought of listening to Louise Hayes' meditations is very appealing, but I would not care to work through trying to clearly hear her words through this music. It is not that the music is not suitable, but the volume of it is absolutely not suitable.

I haven't used all the meditations on this, but did listen to one while falling asleep one night. They are pretty good.

In this Cd... the backround music should be just a touch softer and lower so as to not compete with Louise's beautiful and comforting voice. However, with that being said, you can still hear every word of what Louise is saying!

This is a wonderful CD. Louise takes us on two seperate meditations, both of them starting out by relaxing us, although she can do that with her voice alone. And then proceeds to have us see , feel, and imagine the loving light that is within us, after having us visualize that light filling ourselves up with love, and light and healing, she then takes us on a journey of expanding that light 'outward" to encompass and touch all those around us, from our family and friends, to our neighbors and neighborhood, to our towns and cities, and all buildings and people in them, and then eventually to make that light so large it encompasses the entire planet, helping to heal everyone and everything with our thought, and intention and love..... which in return, helps and heals US.

Two beautiful meditations, each different and unique , in Louise Hay's gentle, loving and reasurring voice, showing us how we can heal our lives in every way with the power of our mind, and our love and by visualizing everything as already being "perfect, whole and complete"

Relaxing, healing, uplifting, empowering.
