Do you have trouble getting to sleep?

We keep hearing from people that lack of rest is one of life’s major disruptions. So, we decided to create a guided meditation that can give sleep assistance to others.

The video process incorporates simple techniques to relax the body and mind. In addition, you’ll bring your waking hours to a close with appreciation for your life and the events of the day while releasing any racing thoughts.

You may close your eyes at any time during this guided meditation and just listen to the audio.

When you finish the video and get into bed, you may continue to use the technique in which you imagine writing down your thoughts and setting them into the river. Or, you may just follow your breathing in and out as you drift off to sleep.

Please remove all distractions from the area where you watch this video to experience the full benefit.

There is also an audio-only version of this video on the Creative Mentor page of our website.

Sweet dreams :)

We’re excited to announce that “Water FIlms” are now available on DVD! This two-DVD set contains over 2.5 hours of relaxing and inspiring content.

The first DVD, “Creative Inspiration,” provides a calm and focused atmosphere that’s conducive for creativity, performance or a calm, focused start to your day. “Peaceful Contemplation,” the second DVD, allows you to meditate with your eyes gently scanning tranquil yet spectacular images of nature from all over North America.

Whole Foods Cedar Center already has copies available, but you can also get the DVD at Amazon and CDBaby.

Here’s the promotional video for the DVD set . . .

You can also watch it directly on YouTube.

Peace.

We cannot overstate the beauty of Maui, Hawai’i. This place is simply amazing.

Here are some photos from our trip to this incredible island.

The power and inspiration of nature is crystal clear in the following photos:

Photo #1 – This is the Kalalau Valley in Koke’e State Park in Kaua’i. Words can’t describe the beauty and power of this spot.

Photo #2 – Not too far from the Kalalau Valley is the Waimea Canyon, a place that Mark Twain called “The Grand Canyon of the Pacific.”

Photo #3 – The hibiscus is the state flower of Hawai’i. This orange variety caught my eye.

Photo #4 – The Hawaiian Monk Seal can be seen sunning itself on the eastern shore of Kauai

Photo #5 – The red crested cardinal . . .

Photo #6 – Donkey Beach got its odd name from the fact that nearby sugar plantations used donkeys to haul cane to the fields. It’s a very peaceful spot with some pretty rough waves (if you decide to step in).
