- good introduction to meditationMy daughter who had been weepy and sleepless, found herself giggling hysterically to this cd the first time I put it on. I considered this a good thing. And although she thought it was dorky (repeating "I am a good person" while she felt terrible caused much laughter), she vowed to do it each night as the relaxation techniques later on the CD worked for her. I listened for a few minutes and thought the affirmations were a bit awkward and the music was a bit dorky. But all in all it's given my teenager a good attitude about meditation and for that I think it's a decent start. Rating: - Use it everynight for a yearUsed everynight for about a year now to help my teen sleep. Need I say more. ? Rating: - Great, even for younger kids!I have the Indigo Dreams CD which I use in my psychotherapy practice with younger children. Many of them really enjoy the stories and have been helped with calming for bedtime. However I was excited to try using the Indigo Teen Dreams with some of my younger kids who really needed to know how to specifically practice the Relaxation techniques in order to apply them to other times of increased stress. I have been working with two bright 8 year old girls that have loved adding this CD to their options when feeling stressed or having difficulty sleeping. THANKS!! Rating: - Indigo Teen Dreams: Diversity at it's BestI am a psychiatric social worker who purchased "Indigo Teen Dreams" for our unit. We have utilized this wonderful CD on a twice weekly basis as part of our relaxation curriculum. We have a very diverse population of adolescents ranging from kids who are moderately depressed or highly anxious to severely behaviorally and emotionally disturbed. This CD has reached teens across the board and given them the initial realization that they do have some control over their bodies and how they choose to respond to situations and stressors. I applaud "Indigo Teen Dreams" CD for its usefulness in everyday life in supporting teens with many diverse needs and challenging issues to find a better way to deal with their stressors. Rating: - Indigo Teen Dreams- A Wonderful RelaxerI'm a very tense person by nature and I get anxious easily, which sometimes disturbs my sleep. Recently, I had a difficult time falling asleep because I was worrying about college and such. I put on Indigo Teen Dreams and almost instantly felt more at ease. The visualizations and images are wonderfully relaxing. The meditation really allowed me to focus in on myself and forget the world around me. And the deep breathing track is something that everyone should do, learning how to deep breathe can make a world of a difference, as I found out. I put the CD on my i-pod and listen to it whenever I need to relax. It's made my overall mood better and I'm happy to have found something that makes me feel better. I do a lot of theatre and once the school year starts up, I plan to use the techniques to focus and relax myself before an audition. These techniques I can carry with me and use forever; I would strongly recommend it to any teen, I think everyone can benefit from it.
