Belleruth Naparstek’s guided imagery surgery preparation audio program of soothing words is scored with calming music by Steven Mark Koh. The audio guides you on how to get ready for surgery by imagining a successful, safe and comfortable operation and recovery, complete with guided imagery suggestions and images of all the desired outcomes, including reduced bleeding, lower use of pain medication and fast mending with minimal discomfort. Here's the track list:

Ideal for hip surgery recovery and shoulder surgery recovery, this highly acclaimed mind-body meditation is particularly helpful for the more difficult and extended process of recovery from knee surgery. A separate music track can be played in the O.R., and the affirmations track focuses on healing during the recovery period. Listen to a sample of this surgery meditation or read the reviews to see why the Mayo Clinic, Columbia Presbyterian, Johns Hopkins, UCSF and hundreds of other hospitals and US military installations use this program worldwide with such confidence and success.

Wonderful with one caveat

This is overall a supportive and helpful experience for me as I prepare for surgery and I’m grateful to have found it. I do hope that it can be updated in the future to eliminate references to God and angels, so that it can feel inclusive for people of all beliefs and nonbelief — to me this felt like a blind spot and it’s my one hesitation about recommending it to my own friends and clients who are Buddhist, atheist, Hindu, etc. The final meditation actually concludes with God.

If you are having surgery, try this

One of the best recordings of guided meditation, visualization, and affirmations, for those preparing for, undergoing, or healing after surgery.

Fabulous Support Pre/Post surgery

Hands down an important part of pre surgery preparation and post surgery healing. I have listened to this for every surgery and it’s a phenomenal support. Easier surgery and faster healing. Body, Mind, Soul are partners. Highly recommend.

Wonderful

Really enjoying this! Recommended by my pain psychologist. Easy voice, lovely guided imagery, listening daily easily. Wish there were more from bellerith on pre op.

Effective

Belleruth is easy to follow. The guided imagery and affirmations were wonderful. Very effective tool for my surgery prep and recovery.

Peace!!! Calm! Confidence

Everything you want prior to surgery!
I was able to let go of all pre-surgery anxiety

Fabulous results from surgery

I started listening to this meditation one time for day before surgery and got amazing results. My surgery was supposed to be six hours long and the doctors said that I had minimal bleeding and it only took five hours because my body was so cooperative. Helped so much with pre-surgery anxiety and even during the recovery. Period, I listen to it, and it is a definite must have if you want to Recover from surgery quickly, easily, and with virtually no anxiety.

This helped me SO much. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

I had hip replacement surgery this morning. I have been listening to these guided meditations for about a month.
During that time I was uncertain as to whether or not to actually do the surgery. The meditations reminded me to accept my uncertainty without criticism or blame—and I added without shame. I felt more centered and eventually the answer became clear. Once I made my decision the meditations helped me find my calm when I had—understandably—spikes of fear about such a scary thing as surgery.
I listened to them—particularly chapters 2 and 3–while I did my pre-surgery exercises, some of which were painful. The meditations helped me open to, breathe through, soften around and get through the discomfort.
Today I had to be in the pre-surgical prep room for an unexpected extended period of time. The meditations helped me stay calm and centered by envisioning my guardian angels and magical allies surrounding me and comforting me—even though at that point I wasn’t actually listening to the audio. By then the words were inside my head.
Post surgery I feel like I manifested what the meditations said—I have no complications and I have had minimal discomfort. I have been playing the audio when I do have discomfort, and that helps me once again stay calm and not get lost in the fear that the pain will get worse or somehow I won’t be able to handle it.
As I was playing the audio here in my hospital room one of my nurses came in and heard it. She said it was beautiful, and I totally agree!! The music is calming and soothing, as is Bellaruth’s voice—without being syrupy.
I have to say that I have one negative. What I imagine to be an Audible add-on at the very end is a man’s voice saying something like, “Thank you for listening to this Audible presentation,” It is just jarring coming on the heels of listening to the beautiful, calming, soothing music that is the 4th chapter.
BTW I am very grateful you can click on Chapters and then pick whatever chapter you want to listen to rather than having to listen to the whole thing each time.
Overall I am so very grateful my friend recommended this audio to me. I HIGHLY recommend it if you have a surgery upcoming.

Excellent mental surgery prep

This audiobook helped me so much! The narrator has a great voice for this type of meditation. It helped curb my anxiety and focus my energy. I feel it really helped me have a successful surgery, complication free, that went even better than my doctor anticipated. I used chapters 2 and 3 mostly. I went into surgery with a lot less anxiety and I was able to use the imagery as I was wheeled in. So far my recovery has been going very well.

Very helpful

This is the second time that I've used this for surgery.Each time has allowed me to go into the surgery far more relaxed and come out of it with confidence in my own ability to heal.
