1.0 out of 5 stars Very disappointing, December 31, 2006

By	karenmarie (Tennessee, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Meditations for Enhancing Your Immune System (Audio CD)

I bought this CD for a friend who has cancer. I promised her that I'd review anything before sending it to her. Boy, am I glad I did!

It is frustrating to listen to and seems to me to break the rules of guided meditition. He mentions a lot of negatives, i.e. "this is not a time for guilt or fear." Well, of course it isn't, we're trying to "enhance" the immune system, not depress people. My opinion is bringing up such words or ideas during a healing meditation is bringing them into awareness. The sub-conscious mind doesn't understand that this is NOT a time for guilt...it just hears "guilt."

I was looking for something that would talk about positives and focus on healing. This is not one I'd recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Calming Approach, March 31, 2006

By	Rosa M. Jordan "healing one" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Meditations for Enhancing Your Immune System (Audio CD)

Dr. Siegel uses a very calming and relaxing approach to facilitating hope and self-worth to the listener of this CD. The analogies and metaphors are excellent in that he equates being prepared for emotional problems with that of being prepared for environmental disasters. He guides by use of visualization techniques that require in-depth concertration and dis-association with distractions. His voice is pleasantly pleasing. This makes a marked contribution to the quality of the CD.

1.0 out of 5 stars Love His Books - Not At All Impressed With This CD, June 28, 2006

By	Victoria Smith (VA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Meditations for Enhancing Your Immune System (Audio CD)

I have many meditation tapes I love, but this isn't one. I love all of his books, so I thought it would be great... but I expected more relaxation and visualization techniques, more hypnosis kind of work in healing. This did nothing for me.
