By following the breath into the depths of the heart chakra, we can briefly visit the layers of emotions contained within, before expanding outwards into space, as far as the universe itself has expanded, and bringing that experience back into daily life. Enjoy this peaceful meditative journey.

Expanding the Heart: Inwards & Outwards

Chronic pain sends no useful message - the brain gets "locked" into a pain matrix with different parts of the brain working together to generate pain. Hypnosis, through the use of language and suggestions for increased comfort and reduced pain, works on many levels. The pain matrix is disrupted and the comfort matrix is strengthened. Even the act of simply relaxing slows brain waves so that pain signals are sent less frequently. With repetition, the brain can learn to let go of the old unhelpful patterns and learn new ones. Guided imagery and visualization of a relaxing "special" place by a mountain lake make this recording a delightful experience with practical long-term benefits that strengthen each time you listen.

Chronic Pain Reduction And Relaxation

This self hypnosis recording helps prepare the mind and body for deep restful sleep. With practice you will be able to use these techniques to fall asleep very quickly and easily.

Enjoy!

Self Hypnosis for Deep Comfortable Sleep

This track guides you through the peaceful 'garden of your life, beginning with a body scan and moving into guided imagery. First, you get rid of negative emotions, old hurts, and frustrations, by making a bonfire, then you visit your tool shed which is full of wonderful resources, and finally, you gain perspective through a bird's eye view of your life.

The Garden of Your Life - Guided Imagery

The guided imagery session begins with a peaceful walk from a hill on a tropical island, through a forest, and to a beautiful deserted beach. After being on the beach for a while, you follow a path and pass through a gate in an old stone wall. You find yourself in a beautiful, magical landscape. Here you will become aware of your higher self, repair any energy leak you may have, and feel bathed in a golden white light of love and healing. Enjoy this relaxing, healing journey through your inner landscapes.

While this guided meditation could be done in a sitting or lying position, it works best as a standing stretch, feet firmly on the ground and arms stretched upwards, like a tree.

Three-Minute Morning Stretch

Sometimes we move through a difficult experience and come out the other side. We think we are past it and yet every once in a while we find ourselves being drawn back into the emotions of the event again. Grief can be like that. Or fear, or anxiety. We spiral around and revisit issues - and yet each time we are in a different place, so we view these past events from a different perspective. This meditation invites you to reflect on cosmic time, stars, and comets, and to think about cycles in your own life.

Comet Meditation For Cycles In Our Lives

This short, sweet, guided meditation has you imagine yourself as a sunflower seed that then becomes a sunflower. You are invited to think about what "seeds" are lying dormant in your life, full of potential, quietly waiting for a touch of sun and rain to start the new cycle of growth.

Sunflower Seed Meditation

At night things look different, and familiar places take on different characteristics. Our senses may seem more acute at night. We notice sounds and shadows, and our minds sometimes create scenarios that frighten us. This short, calming meditation invites you to contemplate what you reflect back into the world and what you project onto others.

Moonlight Meditation
