This DVD changed my life!
During the stress of my divorce, I developed severe anxiety / panic disorder. I had read of the health benefits of meditation, but I never wanted to try it. (My mother was a religious freak who practiced meditation while I was growing up, so I wrongly associated meditation with religion.) Despite counseling, my anxiety grew worse, so I decided to buy this DVD. I'm so thankful that I did! This DVD changed my life. I am incredibly hi-strung, and I work in the hi-tech industry with a very stressful job. In addition, I have three very young kids ages 2 months to 5 years old, and I found it impossible to turn off the constant, mostly negative, thoughts in my head. When you have panic disorder, you lose trust in your body. You feel as if you have no control. This DVD helped me to regain trust in my body and in myself. It helped me to slow down my mind, to appreciate my body and mind, and to find joy in living again, starting with a simple breath. Buy this DVD! You will not regret it! It is one of the best out there. Even if you don't have severe anxiety, this DVD will help you feel calm, peaceful, and rejuvenated.

Great Meditation DVD
This is a great dvd for meditation. The dvd is organized well and you can get right to the part you want easily. Her voice is pleasant and calming. I have several meditation dvd's and I think this is one of the best

ok for beginners..
i like the mixture of just mediation sessions and sessions with stretch/yoga movement.. though the stretch/yoga sessions tend to move too fast. i kept having to pause, and watch again. i think with few more practices i wont have to concentrate too hard on the instructions.

If you really want to meditate, this is it!
I read the 3 star reviews and I think they were very unfair. The point they miss is that she is the best teacher of meditation I have ever experienced and I have tried many---both classes and DVD's. Her accent does not interfere with her abilities at all. Nor is she self-absorbed---those reviewers really have missed a gem.

I love Rodney Yee's AM yoga, but his DVD's on meditation show he does not get it and she does.

I wish she would do more.

If you really want to meditate---really, really---no one is better.

Wonderful & Relaxing!
I have always had difficulty being able to stick with any exercise or yoga program. However, this is one program that I am not only sticking with, but I actually look forward to doing as often as possible!

Also the meditation segment is so wonderful and relaxing, that when I do it in the evening, I sleep like a baby. Definitely better than nights that I don't meditate before bedtime.

I HIGHLY recommend this DVD to anyone looking to destress/decompress and learn effective relaxation techniques that are "user friendly" to those of us that are not long-time yoga/meditation experts!
