I did the relaxation cd, but I found the voice caused me to be less relaxed than the background music. I tend to like spa type music and especially R. Carlos Nakai. He uses a Native American flute and it has such a calming effect that I have not found anything better for myself.
If you go to Pandora.com and create an R. Carlos Nakai station you will not regret it. That is what I play in my clinic as it really sets a great calm space. I think that music is amazing as it can make you any particular emotion instantly. I have listened to music that makes me excited, mad, sad, and even taken me on journeys...
I do agree that the type of music in the background is very soothing. Music that just flows is very relaxing. I found the voice however soothing as well. I think it is because i had the mindset that this person is trying to help me. Just listening to them. Also the tone was very refreshing to me. everyone has their own opinion though. Thanks for the suggestions to go on Pandora though. i will have to check that out. Happy new year!
