"I am a licensed therapist, and I recommend Weil's breathing techniques to many patients. I think it is a great natural aide in helping so many struggling with psychological issues. This collection will not disappoint!"

"I've always thought meditation was a) a little goofy and b) impossible to do because who can think of nothing? But Dr. Weil and John Kabat-Zinn have put together a great selection of both teaching and guided meditation that even the most analytical, anxious, type-A person (me) can learn from."

"I agree with the other reviewers, this probably is an excellent introduction to Yoga breathing and meditation, but that's not why I listened to it. If you are just an everyday, average Joe or Jane, don't think that this product is not for you! Weil teaches the breathing techniques outside of their cultural connotations and I often recommend the relaxing technique to clients and friends when they feel stressed and overwhelmed. It's a fabulous tool for taking back a little control in your life. Use it spiritually, or don't, but listen to the book!"

"This is my fourth purchase of Weil's CDs in the past 14 months. The first two were for my partner who was anticipating and then recovering from diverticulitis surgery. The second and third pairs were for friends enduring chemo and radiation after cancer surgery. The latest was for my oldest nephew who is dealing with a currently inoperable/untreatable intracranial hemorrage. My nephew, a hard-living Texas oil industry type, was the only one resistant to the concept. After actually trying the process, he's on his way to a 360. My partner and my friends didn't resist at all and put these meditational practices to good use immediately with very positive results. I might add that they, and I, continue to use the CDs for health maintenance.
I've been a fan of Dr. Weil's since his Eating Well for Optimum Health got me out of an unintentionally self-induced but serious health crisis. I'd recommend the CDs and the book as excellent purchases for anyone facing a well-being challenge, and as a particularly thoughtful gift for friends and family in need of support. They are five star contributions to the arts and crafts of living well and living WELL. "

"If you have never done breath work before, Dr. Weil's CD: Breathing The Master Key to Self Healing is an excellent first choice that will provide a series of short exercises to improve your breathing technique, quiet your mind, and help you clear your daily tension and anxiety prior to deeper meditation. This initial preparation assumes that you know little about breath discipline (a form of Yoga), and takes you from the very beginning with a kindly voice and beautiful music. Dr. Weil's producer has taken care to provide the best quality sound, the best musicians, and even a high quality CD that will resist wear. (I use my CD every day on my bus commute to town.) "
