Menopausal Symptoms
Hot flashes, poor sleep, poor concentration, and mood swings are common symptoms in the menopause years and can be a significant source of discomfort and distress. Stress often makes these symptoms more common and severe, and not surprisingly, research shows that relaxation and guided imagery practices can reduce the intensity of these symptoms. Typically, a regular practice of imagery once or twice a day for 1-3 weeks will begin to help. You can start simply with the "Relaxing into Healing" CD to introduce you to relaxation and imagery, or, better, use our "Guided Imagery for Self-Healing" book and 4 CD set that will teach you the nine essential skills of using guided imagery to help stimulate healing from within. The book will explain the process, review the science behind it, and coach you through the common questions that people have, while the CD set guides you through the 9 essential guided imagery skills taught in the book. A quicker introduction, especially for people that don't prefer to read, is to use "Self Healing with Guided Imagery", a 2 CD set featuring Dr. Andrew Weil. The first CD explains mind/body healing and guided imagery while the second teaches you the three most fundamental self-healing skills.
