If you or someone you love has suffered a traumatic event, you know the devastating impact it can have on your life and your spirit. Life-threatening accidents, illnesses, assaults, abusive relationships—or a tragedy like 9/11—all can leave deep emotional wounds that persist long after physical scars have healed. Survivors become “invisible heroes,” courageously struggling to lead normal lives in spite of symptoms so baffling and disturbing that they sometimes doubt their own sanity.

Story
This skillful and artfully produced approach for relieving stress makes our guided imagery programs a frequent choice for patient referral by health care providers and mental health professionals, as well as a popular word-of-mouth favorite among friends. The first meditation to relieve stress is guided imagery for mastering anxiety. The second is a guided meditation that offers evocative images designed to pump up natural feelings of love, safety, protection and support. The third is a deeply relaxing walking meditation for the fidgeters among us.
Publisher's summary
This audio is a soothing, calming guided meditation for medical procedures, designed at the request of Kaiser Permanente to help patients undergoing cardiac catheterization feel more relaxed and confident during their procedure. It then was adapted for use for a whole range of potentially uncomfortable or unpleasant procedures where it is necessary for patients to be awake—colonoscopies, needle biopsies, getting stitched, gynecological exams, intubations, extubations—anything where the patient's comfort can be improved by taking the anxious mind elsewhere.
This powerful, hypnotic guided imagery shows listeners how to relax during medical procedures by using soothing words, music and a pleasing narrative that evokes a sense of safety, mastery and control. The effect is to keep muscles relaxed, the psyche calm and the mind engaged in a pleasant journey elsewhere. This also has the effect of making the procedure itself go more quickly and smoothly.
Here's the track list:
- Guided Imagery (20:28)
- Music (20:28)
Repeated listening ensures maximum impact, but even listening for the first time during the procedure can make a big difference and be a great help.
Written and narrated by noted mind-body, holistic health pioneer Belleruth Naparstek and scored to the exquisite, immersive music of Steven Mark Kohn, this Health Journeys recording to help people stay calm during medical procedures was produced by the Cleveland Orchestra's Bruce Gigax.
Listen to a sample and see for yourself why this audio program of guided meditation for medical procedures can show you how to relax during a biopsy or colonoscopy, and why it has proven to be such a popular, word-of-mouth favorite among those facing anxiety producing procedures (41 min.)

Story
In Dangerous Personalities, former FBI profiler Joe Navarro shows listeners how to identify the four most common "dangerous personalities", and analyze how much of a threat each one can be: the Narcissist, the Predator, the Paranoid, and the Unstable Personality. Along the way, listeners learn how to protect themselves both immediately and long-term - as well as how to recover from the trauma of being close to such a destructive force.

Story
Russ Harris offers a surprising solution to low self-confidence, shyness, and insecurity: Rather than trying to "get over" our fears, he says, the secret is to form a new and wiser relationship with them. Paradoxically, it's only when we stop struggling against our fearfulness that we begin to find lasting freedom from it.
