Mindfulness CDs

Many clients find it helpful to have additional resources for healing available to them between therapy sessions. I have a lending library of books and I’ve also created two CDs to help you on your journey. More resources are listed below to help on your journey to wellness.

Being With Yourself

As a beginning meditator 25 years ago, I just couldn’t sit still or find just the right way to meditate. The silence on the meditation CDs made me anxious, so I began to use the mindfulness focus to just allow the mind and the body to follow its own rhythm. As a perfectionist, I felt that I would never learn how to meditate properly. The mindfulness practice allows for acceptance and kindness toward self, and I loved that notion! This CD teaches about mindfulness and will help you be aware of your thoughts “without judgment” and will bring a sense of peace that you cannot do mindfulness wrong. I love this practice and encourage you to use this CD daily for at least 30 days to get the best overall results. Learning to take time for yourself and learning to acknowledge your life as it is in this moment is a great way to appreciate the joys and pains of life itself. (20 minutes)

Mindfulness Meditations: Waking Up to Your Life

This CD is for people with busy minds. Track 1 introduces the concept of mindfulness. Track 2 helps to slow down the mind and refocus…this is not about emptying the mind, but watching the mind and the body in a non-judging manner. Track 3 on loving kindness teaches how to focus on loving thoughts toward ourselves and others in our communities. Track 4 is especially important for folks who have physical and emotional pain. It helps to identify emotions, sensations in the body, and thoughts in the mind…to identify what is from a place of gentle compassion. (37 minutes)
