Pulled up sample clips in case anyone else is interested:

My goal is to practice at home so that I can recruit the feeling when needed (sometimes Rescue Remedy is not enough) so I am interested in the one for anxiety... Will a simple OM be powerful enough, do you think? Also, I have no experience with Gary. Any thoughts you care to share on his other practices? |

When I use one of his DVDs, I always turn lights off and play relaxation music (such as ocean waves and soft music like this: http://www.amazon.com/Relaxation-Med...5791753&sr=8-2). Since his DVDs do not have any background music, it works very well. I find Gary "monotone" voice wonderfully sleep inducing. . .

Not that I'd wish it on anybody else, but it does make me feel better that I am not alone in this. ******************************** Betsy, thank you for your explanation... Whilst this does not sound like a barrel of laughs, repeated movement with breath sounds very good for me. I can stay engaged as long as there is movement, zoning in/out as you say... If I learn it (and it works), I can translate modified movement to the plane seat. You've made me interested in the upper back one as well... How long is that practice? And how long are the practices for anxiety and depression? Ah, just answered my own question:45 minutes for practice 1, 54 minutes for practice 2. Long! I am willing to be a guinea pig and this may be a dvd I try to get here before I fly next. (Also on my list is iMeditate with Erich Schiffmann) |

I am flying in about a month and am already thinking about it...I'll have to go back and check the release date on this. Maybe I'll give it a shot.
in Paris--I'm glad you posted about this, because I feel so silly, too. I get sweaty...hate it. Jackie |
