Product Description Indigo Dreams is a 60 minute CD/audio book designed to entertain your child while introducing them to relaxation and stress-management techniques. Four unique bedtime stories incorporate breathing, visualizations, muscular relaxation and affirmations. These are the same techniques recommended for adults but presented in a fun, interactive format that appeal to children. Children follow the characters along as they learn Yoga belly breathing with A Boy and a Bear, make positive statements with The Affirmation Web, visualize with A Boy and a Turtle and relax with The Goodnight Caterpillar. All four of these stories are also available in book format. Indigo Dream s shorter stories are perfect for shorter attention spans and beginners. The stories are best suited for ages 4-9. These proven techniques encourage wellness and provide tools for children who suffer from anxiety, stress, trauma, hyperactivity, anger, sleep issues and lack of confidence. The narration is accompanied by soothing sounds of crickets, gentle breezes and forest animals. An additional music sound track is included to further enhance your child s relaxation experience.

Happy Mornings August 31, 2008 My son is Autistic, and he loved the first CD in this series when I ordered it for him on a whim. The stories have helped teach him to let go of his anger, and by playing them at night when he's had a particularly overwhelming day I find him having more and more Good mornings. After story time I step out of the room and can hear him following the steps of what are guided meditations for children. Any of the CD's in this series are good. Some are geared a little more toward girls overall, but they all have something for all children. My son's favorite story disc is the one with the Angry Octopus. With the help of these CD's he truly understands now that he has control over his own emotions.

My daughter (8) loves these stories. We bought the other 2 CDs as well. She really enjoys them.
Nice Calm bedtime meditation April 23, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
10 year old daughter loves this cd, my 5 year old son yells no I don't want it. Speaker tells stories with key words such as "calm" "happy" "beautiful" "smart" she speaks slowly and calmly - I personally find it relaxing and I could fall asleep to it.
Very Calming April 6, 2008 I bought this CD for my 6 year old son who was feeling excessively worried after a number of medical procedures. I am a psychotherapist and wanted to try something different. My son had an interesting reaction to it while he was stressed out-he thought it was, "too slow" and "boring" and wanted me to turn it off BUT: after a couple of minutes he said, "Mom, why do I feel so sleepy?" (!). I did too. It is soothing and on their level and I thought that it was relaxing. I only played it a that one time however, because he objected to it another time and fortunately, I have not really needed it. So mixed success-if you can get them to listen to it-it works!
Bedtime relief! March 9, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
We played this CD for the first time tonight as my 5-year-old was going to bed. Five-star results! Lately bedtime has been a zoo with her repeatedly getting out of bed and/or asking to be sat with until she falls asleep. Tonight I stayed with her for a couple of stories (the first one is a bit hokey), but then she stayed in bed and fell asleep before the CD was over. I am one relieved and hopeful mom.
