When listened to repeatedly, either as separate segments or cumulatively as a whole set, these tracks will dramatically reduce anxiety and the frequency and intensity of panic attacks by teaching relaxation at will, reducing fear and isolation, and instilling a sense of mastery and control in the listener. After two to three weeks, most people experience a substantial reduction or even elimination of panic attacks' classic symptoms. For some, this guided meditation for panic attacks has reduced the need for medication, and in some instances, it has even replaced it.

If you or someone you love has suffered a traumatic event, you know the devastating impact it can have on your life and your spirit. Life-threatening accidents, illnesses, assaults, abusive relationships—or a tragedy like 9/11—all can leave deep emotional wounds that persist long after physical scars have healed. Survivors become “invisible heroes,” courageously struggling to lead normal lives in spite of symptoms so baffling and disturbing that they sometimes doubt their own sanity.

This skillful and artfully produced approach for relieving stress makes our guided imagery programs a frequent choice for patient referral by health care providers and mental health professionals, as well as a popular word-of-mouth favorite among friends. The first meditation to relieve stress is guided imagery for mastering anxiety. The second is a guided meditation that offers evocative images designed to pump up natural feelings of love, safety, protection and support. The third is a deeply relaxing walking meditation for the fidgeters among us.
Publisher's summary
This audio is a soothing, calming guided meditation for medical procedures, designed at the request of Kaiser Permanente to help patients undergoing cardiac catheterization feel more relaxed and confident during their procedure. It then was adapted for use for a whole range of potentially uncomfortable or unpleasant procedures where it is necessary for patients to be awake—colonoscopies, needle biopsies, getting stitched, gynecological exams, intubations, extubations—anything where the patient's comfort can be improved by taking the anxious mind elsewhere.
This powerful, hypnotic guided imagery shows listeners how to relax during medical procedures by using soothing words, music and a pleasing narrative that evokes a sense of safety, mastery and control. The effect is to keep muscles relaxed, the psyche calm and the mind engaged in a pleasant journey elsewhere. This also has the effect of making the procedure itself go more quickly and smoothly.
Here's the track list:
- Guided Imagery (20:28)
- Music (20:28)
Repeated listening ensures maximum impact, but even listening for the first time during the procedure can make a big difference and be a great help.
Written and narrated by noted mind-body, holistic health pioneer Belleruth Naparstek and scored to the exquisite, immersive music of Steven Mark Kohn, this Health Journeys recording to help people stay calm during medical procedures was produced by the Cleveland Orchestra's Bruce Gigax.
Listen to a sample and see for yourself why this audio program of guided meditation for medical procedures can show you how to relax during a biopsy or colonoscopy, and why it has proven to be such a popular, word-of-mouth favorite among those facing anxiety producing procedures (41 min.)

The latest groundbreaking tome from Tim Ferriss, the number-one New York Times best-selling author of The 4-Hour Workweek. For the last two years, I've interviewed more than 200 world-class performers for my podcast, The Tim Ferriss Show. The guests range from super celebs (Jamie Foxx, Arnold Schwarzenegger, etc.) and athletes (icons of powerlifting, gymnastics, surfing, etc.) to legendary Special Operations commanders and black-market biochemists. For most of my guests, it’s the first time they’ve agreed to a two-to-three-hour interview.

Based on seven years of ground-breaking research and hundreds of interviews, I Thought It Was Just Me shines a long-overdue light on an important truth: Our imperfections are what connect us to each other and to our humanity. Our vulnerabilities are not weaknesses; they are powerful reminders to keep our hearts and minds open to the reality that we're all in this together.
