Visualization tapes?

Jac,
I agree! Everyone is different and different things resonate more with some people than others. Sometimes it is a matter of taste (like music) and other times it is a function of where you are in your journey. I find sometimes I love certain things for a while and drop away from them sometimes to pick them up again later and sometimes not.
The piece I hadn't considered was that these CDs do affect the brain, there are probably certain individuals who may actually be impacted in detrimental ways. For example, I wonder if it is safe for people with seizures to use these kind of products. Unlike things like herbs that my scientific training is immediately suspicious of, I hadn't thought about possible negative effects of these CDs on a certain segment of the population. I feel a bit gullible, frankly.

Hi, Jac. What you wrote struck me as funny too because I did not mean to imply I trust synthetic drugs!! I don't trust their "science" either. Their science is often the science of profit! That's the interesting thing about this forum--it makes me revisit what I mean when I say something (and this is a good thing).
Yes, the idea that the anti-depressants may increase the likelihood of suicide is very disturbing. It seems like there's still so much we don't understand about the brain it would be hard to create a drug that didn't also do something undesirable along with the intended effect.
I agree that knowing and listening to your own bodymind is key. I wondered why people who had a negative reaction the CDs didn't stop using them. I suppose if a person is in enough pain they might not be able to discern the difference in pain level until the problem gets rather large or else they might be so attached to the idea of it helping, they don't pay attention to what is going on in their body.
