Rating:  Summary: I can't believe I am the first person to review this for you Review: I use this tape at the start and end of my day regularly. On the days that I don't listen, my day just doesn't go as smoothly, and I don't fall asleep as easily. Louise Hay has a very reassuring voice and calm manner. I gave my first copy to my brother,(he is fighting cancer right now) so, I came here to replace it. This tape can be enjoyable and useful to anybody, no matter how deep their interest in meta-physics, new age, or meditation.
Rating:  Summary: A wonderful tape! Review: If you're at all familiar with Louise you know that her persona is that of a beloved grandmother who is no-nonsense but at the same time kindly, wise and loving. On this tape, she leads you through such exercises as letting go, forgiveness (in one you picture your parents as little children), love (for people you know as well as those you will come across during the day) and gratitude -- yes, even for the bed you're sleeping on! The whole world can benefit from love in Louise's worldview! Everything works better and is more joy-filled when infused with our love and gratitude--and, believe it or not, that includes not only the people in our lives but our appliances! Some people (one of the reviewers on this page, for one) may find such notions strange or disturbing, but try not only blessing your relationships, job, etc., but also your home, car and appliances and see if your life isn't more joyful!
Rating:  Summary: Couldn't stand her voice Review: The meditation itself was o.k.; I didn't listen to the morning one very often, but I must agree with the reviewer who found it hard to stop laughing. I did listen to the evening one a number of times, but couldn't stand the breathing sounds and the raspy, smoker's voice of Ms. Hay any more. I would not recommend this tape.
Rating:  Summary: Couldn't stand her voice Review: The morning section just wasn't for me. I have to admit it made me laugh. She starts out telling you to thank your bed and your appliances and send them love because they need love, too. I guess I'm not spiritual enough to be able to send love to my refrigerator or bathroom fixtures. I'd rather send my love to living beings or just out into the universe. After she got done with that part, it was better, but it was half pep talk. I'm more used to guided meditation where the narrator stays out of it. Ms. Hays did a little too much explaining - I guess you might say she was a little too maternal for my taste.The evening section, on the other hand, was quite nice. It was fairly traditional relaxation exercises with some nice thoughts thrown in. Still a little too explanatory for something you might want to participate in actively every day.
