I tried the free holosync sample.  I&amp;#39;m dissappointed that a rep was talking through most of it, or else I would have gotten more out of it.  When it comes to brainwave entrainment, Mind Stereo by Transparent Corp is what floats my boat.

Since you&amp;#39;re having some physical difficulty, I recommend wai tan qigong or moving meditation exercises of which - taijiquan is best known.  Hua T&amp;#39;o, inventor of the first general anesthetic and brain surgery around the 13th century also invented a form of aquatherapy wherein the practitioner does taijiquan like movements while suspended in water; these actions invigorate and restore circulation to the limbs.

Nei tan qigong or still meditation is also good therapy when done correctly according to application.  For those experiencing difficulty with moving their limbs, simply imagine the movement of that limb.  

For example, you remember what it feels like to straighten your right leg from a sitting position.  Just imagine every every impulse, every muscular contraction necessary to simply straighten your right leg.  Feel the movement and warmth of your limb is you continuously exercise it, but in your mind.

Here&amp;#39;s they key to instantly slip into a trance:  Remember natural deep breathing towards the diaphram as waves of energy flowing through you.  Feel your head supported as if by a string from above.  Relax your focus as if looking at the distant horizon of the ocean.  Relax yor jaw by letting it drop slightly.

These actions relax cranial nerves 1 - 5 to allow your neural patterns to slip into lower frequencies.  Command instant relaxation by mastering these simple actions.

Look up HealingMindN Meditation on YouTube or Veoh for a 10 minute trip through your personal enlightenment.

I need to practice more often.  I saw a doctor who after 30 minutes of guiding me through meditation or hypnosis, made me feel wonderul.  It is very helpful and I appreciate the website info.  I plan on looking it over.  I will sometimes get on You Tube and search for meditation or self-hypnosis and sometimes get lucky with a good one.  The importance is sticking with it and try to be in the &amp;quot;state&amp;quot;at all times.  I have a long way to go but have appreciated having this tool.  For me it is also spiritual, so it brings peace in to my life during times when I feel like shouting or crying.  Thanks again for your comments.

As a Christian I turned to the Contemplitive Prayer Life website to find that meditation is an ancient part of the church. A prayer called the Centering Prayer is a 20 minute exercise of being silent and just being in the presence of God, no visulization, allowing thoughts to come but treating them as boats on a river, allow them to float on by without pulling them in. It is a great way to relax and release the tension and pain I feel because of Polio and Post Polio Syndrom.

Bernie Siegal and Louise Hay are 2 of my favorites. Right now I am reading &amp;quot;You can heal your life&amp;quot; by Louise Hay. At times listening to their CDs works as good as taking a pill or at least makes the medicine work a lot better. Having to adjust your life physically can be overwhelming at times and self hypnosis , meditation visualization CDs tapes books DVD have helped me and do help me. &lt;img src="http://www.disaboomlive.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=81723" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: The Power of Meditation</title><link>http://www.disaboomlive.com/Blogs/ianbaillie/archive/2008/07/14/the-power-of-meditation.aspx#81681</link><pubDate>Mon, 14 Jul 2008 15:12:32 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">28f394d7-ba37-43a1-baa5-4a0a3f3961c4:81681</guid><dc:creator>bonnie</dc:creator><description>Sorry, my comment regarding membership in my meditation group should have read &amp;quot;several hundred THOUSAND members.  bonnie&lt;img src="http://www.disaboomlive.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=81681" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: The Power of Meditation</title><link>http://www.disaboomlive.com/Blogs/ianbaillie/archive/2008/07/14/the-power-of-meditation.aspx#81680</link><pubDate>Mon, 14 Jul 2008 15:04:33 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">28f394d7-ba37-43a1-baa5-4a0a3f3961c4:81680</guid><dc:creator>Mshores</dc:creator><description>I had never been able to do the longer or deepr meditations like my sisters do. Then I got hurt and had to go thru a slow down transition. While dealing with that I came across Hay House Radio  http://www.hayhouseradio.com/ and their programs helped me greatly. They have a mix of their authors who do weekly live shows. The themes range from meditations, the power of positive thought, soul coaching, and energy work, to sound healing, angel therapy, intuitive health, astrology, numerology, mediums, etc... A lot of more traditionally minded people think of it all as Metaphysical but I have found there is something for everyone. I have learned many thing and feel like I have progressed not only physically but mentally too to a healthier me. 

They have shows you are able to listen to streaming. They just recently took the archives and made us sign up and pay for access to them. This really wasn&amp;#39;t a bad deal tho because they added some nice benefits to the membership and still made the cost low enough I could afford it. I have paid more for a video game then what I did with the membership and gotten a lot less for it too.

I listen to a show as my slow down time in bed right before I go to sleep. I do know that they have an Aussie division too. Look on the side bar on their front page.
