Healing Trauma: Guided Imagery for Posttraumatic Stress (Health Journeys)
By Midas / July 12, 2013 / 2 Comments / Healing
Designed to renew a positive connection with the body and the emotions; reduce isolation, terror, shame and despair; restore a sense of inner goodness, hope, growth, purpose and meaning; replenish self-esteem and a sense of spiritual connection and protection — not by reliving the trauma, but by metaphorically shifting it, incrementally over time, with repeated listening. Steve Kohn’s closely scored, richly textured, exquisite music potentiates this powerfully evocative imagery. There are also 30 minutes of affirmations. (Run Time: 60 minutes)

Wonderful surprise I have purchased several of Belleruth Naparstek’s guided imagery series and found them all to be very effective, but this particular one really blew me away. There are similar threads that run through most of the previous ones I’ve listened to, and some of these are repeated here, but this imagery took me on a wonderful journey through my emotions and released pain and healed trauma I didn’t even realize I was holding onto. The music is perfect for this journey, the imagery is very powerful and moving, and I highly recommend this experience for anyone with emotional scars from the past…even if you don’t think PTSD affects you. I wasn’t sure whether it was appropriate for me before I listened to it, but it turned out to be a perfect way to heal some of the traumas I’ve been through in my life. I find myself really looking forward to listening to it every night, and gain new insights each time.
The Best I’ve Ever Heard – & Not Just for Sufferers of PTSD I first heard this CD at a workshop on weight management. The leader of the group played it without much preface, so I didn’t know what to expect. The music is completely mesmerizing and so right for the healing of a broken heart. I actually had a physical sensation of constriction dropping away from around my heart, and tears came to my eyes. I’ve never had a guided meditation CD with such a powerful impact.I highly recommend it to anybody seeking to strengthen their connection to their heart energy. I’ve tried her other CDs, but this is by far the best. Also would make a great present for somebody healing from heart trauma of any kind (surgery, broken relationship or other disappointments).
