The Relaxation Response
M.D. Herbert Benson, Miriam Z. Klipper When Dr. Herbert Benson introduced this simple, effective, mind/body approach to relieve stress in The Relaxation Response twenty-five years ago, the book became an instant national bestseller. Since that time, millions of people have learned the secret of the relaxation response—without high-priced lectures, drugs, or prescription medicine. The tremendous success of this approach has turned The Relaxation Response into the classic reference recommended by most health care professionals and authorities to treat the harmful effects of stress.

This revitalizing, therapeutic approach, discovered by Dr. Benson and his colleagues in the laboratories of Harvard Medical School and its teaching hospitals, is now routinely recommended to treat patients suffering from heart conditions, high blood pressure, chronic pain, insomnia, and many other physical ailments. Requiring only minutes to learn, and just ten to twenty minutes of practice twice a day, the Relaxation Response has proven to be one of the most effective ways to relieve the tensions of modern-day living for a richer, healthier, more productive life.
Guided Meditations for Stress Reduction
Bodhipaksa Product Description: Mindfulness has been shown in clinical trials to be an effective way of reducing stress. It is a form of focused awareness that helps to prevent the runaway thinking that gives rise to physical and emotional hyper-arousal. The two meditations on this CD help us to develop this transformative quality of mindfulness, by means of which we practice acceptance of our present-moment experience in a non-judgmental way.

Although the meditations on this CD are Buddhist in origin, they can be practiced by people who follow any spiritual tradition or none at all.
Guided Meditations for Busy People
Bodhipaksa If you feel the need to learn meditation but you find that the idea of finding 30 or 40 minutes to meditate is itself stressful, this CD is for you. Short "power meditations" such as these - between three and nine minutes in length - can be highly beneficial for busy people. Each practice teaches a specific and powerful technique for quickly transforming the mind, encouraging the rapid development of calmness, spaciousness, and relaxation. Additionally, by practicing these meditations you'll learn attitudes and skills that can be used throughout the day in any activity you're involved in, bringing more mindfulness and creativity into daily life. You'll notice benefits from repeated practice, and although daily practice is ideal, whatever you can manage will be of benefit. Doing even a small amount of meditation is better than doing none.
Meditation for Dummies
Stephan Bodian, Dean Ornish "To tell you the truth, you can learn the basics of meditation in five minutes," asserts Stephan Bodian, meditation instructor, psychotherapist, and former editor-in-chief of Yoga Journal. You can also study meditation for years, exploring its subtleties. Meditation for Dummies is a simple, clear introduction to the basics of meditation, including an overview of dozens of techniques, practices, and specific meditations, plus direction for going deeper. You get step-by-step instructions for a variety of meditations, including body position, mental concentration, where to put your attention, what to contemplate or notice, physical movements, and breathing. A nice touch is the recurring "traditional wisdom": ancient stories or anecdotes that make a point. This book is useful whether you want the nuts and bolts for getting started in the next minute or you want to dip your mind into different practices and philosophies. Nothing is too elementary to explain: "how to sit up straight—and live to tell about it," what to wear, dealing with fear and self-judgment, and what to do when you get "stuck." You also get plenty of information about the benefits and varieties of meditation. You're bound find and develop a practice that feels right for you. —Joan Price
The Gifts of Imperfection: Let Go of Who You Think You're Supposed to Be and Embrace Who You Are
Brene Brown 'This important book is about the lifelong journey from 'What will people think?' to 'I am enough.' Brown's unique ability to blend original research with honest storytelling makes reading The Gifts of Imperfection like having a long, uplifting conversation with a very wise friend who offers compassion, wisdom, and great advice.'
—Harriet Lerner, New York Times best-selling author of The Dance of Anger and The Dance of Connection

'Brené Brown courageously tackles the dark emotions that get in the way of leading a fuller life; read this book and let some of that courage rub off on you.'
—Daniel H. Pink, New York Times best-selling author of A Whole New Mind

'Courage, compassion, and connection: Through Brené's research, observations, and guidance, these three little words can open the door to amazing change in your life.'
—Ali Edwards, author of Life Artist

In The Gifts of Imperfection, Brené Brown, a leading expert on shame, authenticity, and belonging, shares ten guideposts on the power of Wholehearted living—a way of engaging with the world from a place of worthiness.

Each day we face a barrage of images and messages from society and the media telling us who, what, and how we should be. We are led to believe that if we could only look perfect and lead perfect lives, we'd no longer feel inadequate. So most of us perform, please, and perfect, all the while thinking, What if I can't keep all of these balls in the air? Why isn't everyone else working harder and living up to my expectations? What will people think if I fail or give up? When can I stop proving myself?

In The Gifts of Imperfection, Brené Brown, Ph.D., a leading expert on shame, authenticity and belonging, shares what she's learned from a decade of research on the power of Wholehearted Living – a way of engaging with the world from a place of worthiness.

In her ten guideposts, Brown engages our minds, hearts, and spirits as she explores how we can cultivate the courage, compassion, and connection to wake up in the morning and think, No matter what gets done and how much is left undone, I am enough, And to go to bed at night thinking, Yes, I am sometimes afraid, but I am also brave. And, yes, I am imperfect and vulnerable, but that doesn't change the truth that I am worthy of love and belonging.

How Strange, Innocence
Explosions in the Sky "At certain points along the way, several of us wanted to buy back all the copies and burn them," writes Explosions in the Sky on their liner notes to this reissued debut. That's not a rousing recommendation, but an honest one from a group that three years later would produce one of the definitive post-modern guitar instrumental albums, The Earth Is Not a Cold Dead Place. How Strange, Innocence was reportedly made in only two days and released as a 300-issue CD-R in 2000. It's as rough and ready as that might suggest, but the sound of EITS was already well-formed right out of the Austin electric guitar womb. The opening "Song for Our Fathers" with its languid rhythm and surf guitar reverb fits right in with their later work. It's not perfect. They hadn't yet become sultans of the slow build crescendo, and there are more muffs than any self-respecting musician would want frozen for posterity. Nevertheless, it holds up as a rustic artifact and songs like the opener and "Look Into the Air" fulfill their mission of mood. Even before they were providing atmospheric soundtracks for Friday Night Lights and recording minor symphonies of electric guitar twang, Explosions in the Sky already had a clear vision of their sound. —John Diliberto

A PERSONAL NOTE FROM KRS

It seems that fear either cripples us or impels us to resource everything we know and
then stretch beyond even that to unexplored areas areas that, once visited, seem
hauntingly familiar. After a nine-year fear-induced hiatus from flying, I once again
discovered the value of embracing the lessons that fear had to offer. Some of my most
meaningful spiritual experiences have since occurred, appropriately enough, high above
the earth s busyness, just on the other side of fear. May fear serve the purpose of
elevating you to higher ground in more ways than one.

Excerpt from Track 2:
[With a background of relaxing music designed to facilitate an enjoyable experience]

Soothing Meditation for Boarding & Waiting for Take-Off

As you are preparing to board, appreciate that an invention such as this plane exists
that can so quickly take you to your desired destination. How lucky we are to have
this convenience. This perspective is not only the truth but it will help reframe
your thinking about flying.

Now let's expand this relaxation, this pleasure by allowing the rolling waves of
release to flow down your entire body, gently but powerfully carrying away any fear
in your body and mind. Feel the tranquility flow through your neck and shoulders
and down through your arms even as you are boarding the plane and getting settled...

Notice that there is no room for static energy, fear energy. That energy is effort-
lessly and continuously swept away by the momentum of the calming waves.

Mindfulness Meditation - Breathing, Bells & Walking Meditation
Micki Fine What is Mindfulness?
Mindfulness is the intentional cultivation of non-judgmental, non-reactive, present-moment awareness. The principles of mindfulness are fundamental to many traditional meditative practices and are non-sectarian in nature. Mindfulness practice includes mindfulness meditation (also known as insight or vipassana meditation) and the cultivation of present-moment awareness during daily activities. Mindfulness seeks to engender and enhance the experience of awareness, clarity and compassion. Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) classes help people to cultivate the skill of mindfulness.

The practice of mindfulness is beneficial for people experiencing anxiety, depression, chronic pain, and physical symptoms related to stress or disease. The enhanced self-awareness through mindfulness helps us to see clearly, to accept, and to gain freedom from the suffering brought on by our automatic thoughts and assumptions. Through mindfulness we strengthen our ability to choose creative responses in difficult times, instead of behaving reflexively. As a result, mindfulness becomes stress reduction, not simply stress management.

Stress Gone In 10 Minutes - DVD 1
TimeTrappers DVD Video Production "An amazing product for millions of people who suffer from stress." This is what UK Consultant Psychiatrist Dr Darryl J Britto said recently - his full endorsement is shown in the Reviews section below.

This DVD does indeed help you get rid of stress in just ten minutes, and helps you maintain Peak Performance in your Life and Work. It also helps those faced with stress to avoid the Tipping Point where healthy Pressure tips over into unhealthy Stress.

As recent as 2003, leading doctors and scientists have proven that the body of a stressed person, who takes a break for just ten minutes and focuses intently on something peaceful, will automatically produce small amounts of natural nitric oxide. The amount produced has been measured by top scientists in laboratory conditions, and is proven to be sufficient enough to significantly counteract the dangerous effects of stress hormones and adrenaline build-up, leaving a person feeling 'alive' but totally 'de-stressed.'

The videos have been specifically designed around the well-known RELAXATION RESPONSE, where ten minutes of focused attention on something peaceful results in the elicitation of the Relaxation Response - a feeling of complete calm, and the exact opposite of the Flight or Flight response you may have heard of.

Stress Gone In 10 Minutes products have been expertly designed to allow you to maintain Peak Performance, but most importantly, to stop you from travelling over the Tipping Point into stress, and without diluting your motivation.

THE SIX VIDEOS ON THIS DVD ARE:-

1. COASTAL CALM
Shot at Flamborough, East Yorkshire, UK. Sea, seagulls, seaweed, cliffs and rocks, provide a soothing sense of calm.

2. CANDLES & STONES
Numerous combinations of colourful candles and stones provides a soothing visual experience.

3. ENGLISH SUMMER STREAM
Escape to the riverbanks of an English stream high up in the Pennine district not far from Holmfirth.

4. CLOUDSCAPE ESCAPE
Clouds over Holmfirth. Drift with the clouds just like you did when you laid back on the grass as a child.

5. FLORAL SIESTA
Relax in amongst scenes of English Summer flowers, music & birds singing at a private garden in Cartmel, Cumbria.

6. WILD DAFFODILS
Relax to millions of wild daffodils planted by North Yorkshire medieval monks over 1,400 years ago in the Yorkshire Dales.

Simple breathing & posture instructions are provided with the videos. In this respect, viewer participation is required to achieve a de-stressed situation.

Meditations with Tea: Paths to Inner Peace
Diana Rosen The ritual of tea drinking becomes a salve and window to the soul in Rosen’s soothing volume. Rosen urges readers to revive the ancient Japanese tradition of savoring and contemplating life through tea, which becomes a highly metaphorical beverage in the author’s custody. She structures her earnest tea tome as a series of essays on meditation, each accompanied by two suggestions for teas (one premium, one commercial). Reflections on life flow over into tips on tea preparation, steeped in the tidy histories of all variants of leaves and flavors. While Rosen’s subject matter operates from a salient connection, her ode sometimes suffers from indecision on whether to focus on breathing or brewing. Appended with a directory of tea shops and sources.

Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers, Third Edition
Robert M. Sapolsky "Sapolsky gives a great in depth description of the affects of stress. For anyone interested in what those all-nighters are actually doing to your body, this is a great read!" -Melissa Wittmayer, Wellness Center staff

How stress affects sleep and addiction, as well as new insights into anxiety and personality disorder and the impact of spirituality on managing stress. As Sapolsky explains, most of us do not lie awake at night worrying about whether we have leprosy or malaria. Instead, the diseases we fear-and the ones that plague us now-are illnesses brought on by the slow accumulation of damage, such as heart disease and cancer. When we worry or experience stress, our body turns on the same physiological responses that an animal's does, but we do not resolve conflict in the same way-through fighting or fleeing. Over time, this activation of a stress response makes us literally sick. Combining cutting-edge research with a healthy dose of good humor and practical advice, Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers explains how prolonged stress causes or intensifies a range of physical and mental afflictions, including depression, ulcers, colitis, heart disease, and more. It also provides essential guidance to controlling our stress responses. This new edition promises to be the most comprehensive and engaging one yet.

Yoga for Stress Relief: A Simple and Unique Three-Month Program for De-Stressing and Stress Prevention
Swami Shivapremananda Filled with beautifully clear illustrations of asanas (stretching poses) and pranayamas (breathing exercises), Yoga for Stress Relief should prove effective enough to dissolve the tension out of your body, no matter how frazzled you may feel. Perfect for yoga novices, this book is designed to be part of a gradual, three-month program for dissolving the stress you have now and for helping you build up both psychological and physiological defenses against future stress.

Based on the yoga developed by Swami Sivananda, which combines two of the gentlest types of yoga (Hatha and Raja), the book begins with a clear, non-technical explanation of exactly how detrimental stress is for the body, especially to the respiratory, digestive, cardiovascular, and endocrine systems. Then the exercises are described using both their Sanskrit and English names. From basic but soothing back and neck stretches to those that involve the hips, lower back, legs, and eventually the more complex shoulder stands, Cobra Pose (excellent for relieving menstrual cramps), and spinal twists, you can count on all the kinks being worked out of your body.

A handy chart in the back of the book indicates which of the dozens of poses are especially effective for alleviating particular stress-related ailments such as headaches, insomnia, depression, and panic attacks. While the focus is primarily on the physical aspect of yoga, its spiritual element is also taught through simple, soothing meditative visualizations. Yoga for Stress Relief is also perfect for anyone who's sleep deprived, as an hour of asanas and pranayamas is as rejuvenating for the body as a two-hour nap.
