Self-compassion and motivation

[badger]

A few years back I got some self hypnosis cds, set up a cd player by my bed and listen when the mood strikes. I found that listening to a kind, positive voice was immensely wonderful. When a day had gone by without a kind word being said about me (either by others or by myself) I found peace in hearing it from those CDs. The focus of the hypnosis was either weight loss or self healing, pretty benign stuff. On a day when I felt angry at something that happened at work listening to a CD that encourages one to let go of negativity would be a cure most of the time.

this is an excellent idea. Who produced those CDs, where did you get them?

I got them here http://www.wendi.com/

Picked up a few others at amazon from reading their reviews.

I submitted a reply but it said it needed moderator approval before it would be posted. My cds came from wendi (that would be dot com). I'm definitely not pushing any commercial venture! I just found them to be soothing and "safe." I was cautious in choosing hypnosis material, don't need any weird subliminal stuff piped into my brain....
