Meditations with a Purpose

"Getting into a meditative state is easy when your mind's already calm, but the real value of meditating comes in being able to change your state of mind when you find yourself all wound up. That's where guided meditations can be a Godsend. When they really anchor you in your intention and smoothly bring about a state of deep relaxation.
The catch is that when your mind's running a muck, and stressing over a perceived problem, the last thing your left-brain wants to let you do is sit down and do nothing. You could start arguing with it over the alleged long term benefits of meditation (as if that were a step in the right direction) or... simply offer it purpose.
Purpose is to the left-brain what love is to the right... the driving force behind its existence. And this CD contains three distinctive, purpose-filled meditations.
The Awareness Meditation is worth the cost of the CD alone. Martina's soothing and relaxing voice quickly melts away any tension or stress as she guides you through about a dozen questions on a true journey of self-discovery.
You begin with the simple intention to discover the core energy of a pain or blockage in your life. And end up retracing your personal history in a way that brings about newfound love and understanding. You travel into the energy to find the core-belief at its origin, discover how this belief served you in the past by being there, and then replace it with a new one that serves you now. All without leaving the comfort of your chair!
I've been so enamored by the benefits and possibilities of this single meditation that I've barely begun to explore the other two!
If you're looking for a meditation CD that will truly make a difference in your day-to-day life, look no further. This CD will be a staple in your meditation practice for years to come!"
