Review:
The book explains some of the key elements and benefits of deep relaxation, and the 30 minute CD provides an excellent way of achieving this state of inner peace.
This CD has got to be one of the best guided meditation CDs available. Dr. Weiss uses imagery that is easy and natural to invoke, he has a soothing enough voice, and Steve Halpern's music is perfect.
A quick comparison with two highly rated similar products: Deepak Chopra provides a good CD, "The Soul of Healing Meditations", but it leaves you your own for several minutes at a time (with just the music sound track) and therefore doesn't help you stay "guided" and focused. There's a highly rated CD by Bodhipaksa, "Guided Meditations", which is also good, but there is no music to keep the mind flowing along (the CD is voice only), and the imagery is not as easy or natural to invoke as that of Dr. Weiss.
"Eliminating Stress, Finding Inner Peace" is the third such work from Dr. Weiss, and is the best of the three. The two previous works ("Meditation" and "Regression") last 20 minutes each, which I find a better length of time, but unfortunately Dr. Weiss uses an echo effect for his voice that doesn't quite fit, and the music is not the same quality. These days I use "Meditation" once in while for a change.
Dr. Weiss is a graduate of Yale Medical School, and former Chairman of Psychiatry at the Mt. Sinai Medical Center in Miami. He spent many years developing successful treatment protocols that include guided meditation. (I should mention that he successfully pioneered the use of past life regression as a treatment modality. Some people find this disagreeable, however, even if you're one of these folks, don't let it stop you from acquiring "Eliminating Stress, Finding Inner Peace" which stands entirely on its own merits as an excellent guided meditation.)
