Each session varies in length and content, from a short 20 minute Woodland Journey to a 45 minute deeply relaxing journey of Body Awareness.

Features:
* Deeply relaxing guided meditation sessions

The Sessions include:
* Introduction: This track helps prepare your mind and body for the meditation ahead
* Breath and Relaxation: This track will help you enter a relaxed state where you are aware of your breath, slow your pulse and clear your mind
* Body Awareness: The heart of the Yoga Nidra, takes you on a journey of awareness of your body and energy points
* Woodland Journey: A guided meditation through a woodland journey, helping you be aware of all your senses though a deeply relaxing landscape of nature
* Heavy & Light: An additional body awareness track to help deepen your body awareness
* Return: As you return from your guided meditation, this track will gently bring you back to your surroundings, feeling alert, relaxed and refreshed

Some recent 5 star reviews on iTunes:
?Great quality and easy to use. Used it a couple of times now and it?s the best meditation program I?ve used. I have a few CDs that I?ve listened to in the past but really like the sound of this one and the way its been put together. Love it.?

?I?ve only done one session, but I?m very impressed. The music and sound effects are beautiful and non-gimmicky, with some truly wonderful harp playing in the background. The session I did was paced and written well.?
