Relaxation and Wellness Techniques: Mastering the Mind-Body Connection

Relaxation exercises can help to lower blood pressure and heart rate, reduce oxidative stress in the body, decrease anxiety and depression, improve sleep, and provide a feeling of wellness. This audio CD offers adults a variety of techniques for promoting relaxation and wellness. Based on psychological principles and positive thinking patterns, the authors present 10 different guided sessions to help gain control over stress, disruptive thoughts, and phobias. In between each session, music composed, performed, and produced by Bryce Alvord enhances the peaceful tone. The goal of the exercises is to recognize the power of the mind over physical and mental stressors.
