Rating: Summary: Raising Your Awareness Review: I will never be considered a occult type person, but I've always felt that we are not alone in this world. These tapes provide a reasonable procedure and help with anyone who would like to raise their awareness of things around them. It might not be for everyone, but for those who do want to try I find that it gave me a method to try.
Rating: Summary: not what the title promises Review: I will not recommend these casettes, for one thing as it is mostly about other things than what the title describes. On the last of the four casettes he comes a little to the point. He speeks very fast and stresses the meditation parts of the cassettes, counting to six half of the time. This must be a cassette for someone who never tried meditating before, but how they can not get stressed from his speedy annoying counting all through it I wonder. It is more like a breathing cassette for someone doing a gymnastic rehearsal. i want my money back! Go somewhere else if you are interested in this issue. You do not find anything about guides or angels here, only a description of walking out and into doors in the last cassette page to meet someone. this cassette makes me just stressed. I ordered many books this time, and loved the others, but this one I really get irritated with, it is not worth the buy. And that is why I had to write this at least, if i don't get my money back. So others wont be disappointed too, if they think they will be very enlightened here. He talks too much and too fast, and gives me a headache.... at least I know how to count to six. If you manage his hasty speech, the last page of the four casettes can be ok for a meditative journey to meet someone, if you are in a hurry, and likes to get things done quickly - cause here you have no time to relax!
Rating: Summary: Almost Great Review: I'm a big fan of John Edward's work, and this is no exception. The meditations are excellent, and his frank, no-nonsense style is a refreshing change from other breathy-voiced, flaky meditation tapes.However, as one reviewer said, he does talk very fast. Sometimes he tells you to do something, and before you can even think about it, he moves on. In addition, the pranic breathing is extremely difficult and is more anxiety-inducing than relaxing. It's hard to get in synch with his counting, and my lung function is too limited to allow me to inhale/exhale for so many counts (I'm asthmatic.) However, it won't prevent me from buying his other tapes. I'll just play them at 1/2 speed. ;)
Rating: Summary: awesome! Review: John Edward is so awesome with his choice of words and his wisdom. His meditation tapes have taken me to a world I didn't know how to get to. His work is 2nd to none. My respect for him grows each time I read,hear or see something.. He shows a person how to take something another person gives, and make it work for ones self.. (which I feel is his ultimate goal) take an idea.. and flow with it. in your own way, time and pace.
Rating: Summary: Interesting view Review: John Edward relates a couple amusing anecdotes concerning his instruction in meditative practices, and he provides a brief but helpful description of the chakras, kundalini and the distinction between angels and spirit guides. I found his personal views to be interesting indeed. I have to agree with another reviewer, however, that the visualization exercises (two on 1B, and two on 2B) are rushed and end too abruptly, and his timing for 'pranic breathing' is out of synchronization more often than not--so much so that I find trying to follow his lead distracting and occasionally halting, which is not at all conducive to deep meditation. Mr. Edward prefers a 6 count inhalation, 2 count rest, 6 count exhalation pattern, with an indeterminable rest following, very arbitrary under his direction. Those with experience in breathing patterns might prefer a more definitive 6-2-6-2-6 etc. pattern, or a 6-3-6-3, 8-4-8-4 pattern. I did the best I could under the circumstances, however, and I did manage to construct some very moving and eleborate imagery on the first try. I've decided to either try and memorize his visual cues, or perhaps even transcribe his tape and create my own, with more accurate timing, because I believe under the proper circumstances his suggestions could be very fruitful and rewarding.
Rating: Summary: Meditation made simple Review: John Edwards takes you step by step to learn how to meditate. This isn't a learn in one day tape set, but if followed can help you to reach your goal to learn to meditate and learn how to get in touch with your spirit. I enjoyed his presentation.
Rating: Summary: Not the Best Review: John talks way too fast to even have a chance to relax. However, you can still try to enjoy visualizing the meditation, if you don't mind doing it fast! Although I was disappointed by this, it will not deter me from buying his other tapes, because I do appreciate his knowledge and guidance, even if it is fast paced.
Rating: Summary: Exactly What I Was Looking For! Review: These tapes are great. John is very informative and direct. Explaining chakras and Angel/Guide differences can be confusing! His personal real life stories added in are fun too! John made it all very clear and it made sense too! I am naturally very hyper and it takes a good voice and an interesting speaker to keep me motivated and relaxed. John did it! Thanks John!
Rating: Summary: Simply wonderful.... Review: Wow. Simply said, I love John Edward's books, tapes and Understanding Your Angels and Meeting Your Guides is one of my favorites, well so far. I have always wanted to connect with those who have crossed and with my guides who help me but never quite knew how to go about it. Meditiation has always been a wonderful way to relax but until recently I was unaware how to use my meditation to find answers or guidance. John's tape has taught me how to guide myself through visualization to not only meet my guides but it has also given me the tools to meet with those loved ones who have crossed. John's voice is calming and relaxing. At first, I would listen to his tapes day after day to meditate, now I am able to guide myself through the visualizations to remain in the meditation as long as needed. As John explains on the tapes, meeting your guides does not automatically happen and I am here to say that he is not lying you us, patience is key. Enjoy.
