I have a copy of the old relaxation tape. I need a new cassett player. My friend loaned me her relaxation CD. She got the program about a year ago. I have had it for about 8 years! Anyway I started listening to the CD and it is kinda Trippy! It actually doesnt relax me at all! Because when it goes on about riding in the car as a kid. That used to be a difficult time for me cuz my dad was a heavy smoker and I would get so car sick. SO the refernces made in the newer relaxation CD would never have benefited me the way the old one has. I am thankful for the older tape. I seriously use my relaxation tape daily. For now a little over 8 years. Very peaceful feeling comes over me whn I lay back and put my headphones on.
Anyone else ever listen to the difference????

I don't know about the new tape, but I have the old one from about 8 years back also. I remember liking it. It helped me visualize walking through a beautiful forest with the sun peaking in through the trees. I seem to remember a stream also...I'm gonna have to find it and play it again. I could use going to a place like that in my mind again!

This is soooo weird because I have a very old program. I don't know what year, but it is the first anxiety and depression one (it used to be called attacking anxiety, then they added depression).

Well the very old one take about riding in cars and walking on the beach. I just bought a brand new one, which is kind of strange and talks about waterfalls.

I like the old one.

I got mine with the program 11 months ago and it talks about walking in the forest towards a waterfall. No mention of riding in a car.

Wow, can I get the new one with the riding in the car? That used to be my best experiences with my dad as kid....riding in the car.

What else is different from the program 8 years ago til now? I'm thinking about ordering a new program.

This is sooo funny. I got the program like 2 years ago and I have the one in the forest walking to the stream and the waterfall. I love it. The one riding in the car seems like it wouldn't be good for me.

I just got mine a few weeks ago, and I've got the one where we're supposed to be walking through the woods to a waterfall, except what I pictured was her walking and I was running up ahead, kicking in the stream and picking flowers. I think we all have our own way of feeling relaxed though. I enjoy more of sounds without words then I can picture what I want.

BOy ,
Now I am going to have to call my friend and ask her where she got her program.
That is cool. I really enjoy the walk in the forest tape. I didnt care for the one my friend let me borrow at all.
I am glad to hear that they are using this copy still. Because seriously that tape has been my main source of "ME TIME" relaxtion I have had. I say I am puting my headhpones on and my family knows not to bother me for atleast 45 minutes, LOL!
Thanks for all your input! And thanks to Stress and Lucinda for making such a wonderful program!

WOW bevann! That's a good imagination you have. I just picture me and Lucinda walking and talking and smiling. That probably sounds a little strange but that's my imagination...lol!

I think that's why so maney of us feel like we know her. She talks on those tapes like she's talking to you personally.

hi all,
what you wrote about the tape and the water falls brought back so many good memories.I remember walking through the woods barefooted and hearing the water falls nthe distance.I could hear the birds in the trees and as I got near the water fall there was a stream and I sat down near the water and as I put my hand in the water I could feel it as the water through my fingers.it brought tears to my eyes and I know that the program was working.now I wonder how I can get another copy of it since I lost the old one.take care and God Bless each and every one of you is my prayer.
don
I can't make it happen but SOMEONE bigger then us can.
