Summary: Excellent companion to Yoga and the Quest For The True Self
Review: This excellent CD set, like Stephen Copes book "Yoga and the Quest For The True Self" is not about Yoga Postures (asanas).
Rather it is dealing with the internal aspects of Yoga and our emotional life. The first CD of this 2 CD set lays out the basic psychology of yoga and the second CD contains excellent guided meditations. The first meditation on CD 2 is a wonderful "body scan" which takes you from the top of your head downwards through your body, releasing tension throughout, the next deals with the "riding the wave" technique that he talks about in the above mentioned book (Breathe, Relax, Feel, Watch, Allow) and guides you in a practice of this technique, and the last practice is excellent to prepare you for sleep and clear yourself out emotionally, psychologically and relax you physically. I am really glad I got this set and Highly recommend it! Thank you Stephen Cope for making this available to those of us who wish to take Yoga into our lives and not only practice on our Yoga mats. Namaste

Summary: A wonderful experience!!!!
Review: This is a wonderful cd set (2 cd's included).
In the first CD Stephen Cope talks about being a human being, emotions, purpose, and being a witness and how yoga integrates with these emotions. I have not listened to the whole CD, but most of it...it's is exceptional!!!! It is wonderful CD to have in your car to listen to again and again.
The second CD is 3 meditations. All three of them are lovely, but my favorite is called Riding the Wave. You can do each one separately or together. I love Stephen Copes voice, but I kind of wish that they would have added music and/or nature sounds to the meditation tracks.
This is a must have CD and Amazon has the best deal going at $16.97 for the 2-set CD (retail price is $24.95)
Also, Stephen Cope has a wonderful Kripalu Yoga DVD/VHS that is very good. See my other reviews on Amazon.
