CDs and DVDs

Research has shown that meditation is a very effective life practice that can significantly reduce the symptoms of anxiety and trauma. Anxiety and trauma symptoms often originate in feelings of being unable to control one's thoughts. Meditation helps strengthen a person's awareness of what is going on in their mind and their ability to control it. This is not an instant fix, but an exercise, the mastery of which takes time, concentration, dedication and patience. The benefits can be substantial, giving the practitioner a great sense of calm, peace, and serenity while decreasing feelings of being out of control or "losing one's mind". Our counselors recommend the following meditation CDs.

Research has also shown that Yoga and Tai Chi are effective in helping clients manage the symptoms which accompany trauma including: anxiety, fear, feelings of detachment from their bodies, exaggerated startle response, flashbacks and replays which you are unable to switch off, racing thoughts and feelings of being out of control. Both disciplines require a focus on deep, rhythmic breathing while be very mindful of body position and balance which derails and detracts from panicky and anxious feelings. Both disciplines also encourage a grounding of the body that greatly helps with feelings of detachment. Our counselors recommend the following Yoga and Tai Chi CDs for beginners.
