One of my favorite quotes....
1856230
“There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening
that is translated through you into action,
and there is only one of you in all time,
this expression is unique, and if you block it,
it will never exist through any other medium;
and be lost. The world will not have it.
It is not your business to determine how good it is,
not how it compares with other expression.
It is your business to keep it yours clearly
and directly, to keep the channel open."

Glenda's philosophy is that we each have a song in our hearts and when life brings it's painful challenges ..sometimes we "forget" this song. When one has an audio experience that reconnects with that song...transformation happens.
Listening to this CD right before you go to sleep or right when you wake up--sets the tone for the day...it is more powerful because it accesses the theta state--when your brain is in the "dreamy" state and most receptive to suggestions.
We have the choice to go to sleep or wake up and worry--playing the worry tape-looping over and over-(as Wayne Dyer
says--"marinating overnight in our worries").
-or we can relax and open to our creativity and spirituality.

IT'S LIKE PRAYER IN THE 5TH DIMENSION
Guided imagery has been described as "prayer in the 5th dimension"--because it accesses all of our senses--which makes the experience more powerful.
