Book Reviews of Dr. Andrew Weil's Mind-Body ToolkitBook Review: Not what I expected Summary: 4 StarsI've been a fan of Dr. Weil's written material and website. I was looking for something to listen to while resting or trying to rest. I found this was too intense. I'm keeping it, as I move forward I believe this will be a good fit. In the meantime, I really enjoy the sound wave tracks.
Book Review: Buy it and start taking control of your relaxation! Summary: 5 StarsGreat collection of resource tools for anyone looking to slow down, relax and de-stress without making the commitment to classes, etc. Try out these techniques and choose the one(s) which work for you before signing on for the long-term....
Book Review: Lots of great techniques in one nifty little box Summary: 5 StarsAs a psychotherapist, I often recommend breathing exercises, meditation, guided imagery, and other relaxation techniques to my clients. However, this is the first time I have found a good introduction to all of the above in one place! I bought a kit for my own use (I like to practice what I preach) and have since enthusiastically recommended it to several clients. I especially like that the info. is presented in three different formats -2 audio CDs for home instruction, a guidebook for background information, and a set of cards with one technique explained on each. The cards are perfect for reference while on a lunch break, waiting for an appointment, etc. I also like that many of the techniques take less than five minutes to do, since many of my clients complain that they do not have time or are not ready to commit to devoting long periods of time to learning relaxation techniques. The sound therapy on CD 2 is great too, and is nice background music while reading, journaling, etc. I am very grateful that I discovered this kit. I have used it every day since I bought it a month ago. It has enhanced both my personal life and also my effectiveness as a counselor, since I now have an easy way to introduce my clients to a variety of relaxation techniques. Thank you, Dr.Weil, for putting this kit together!
Book Review: Easy to follow Summary: 4 StarsI ordered this on the recommendation of my doctor to help ease stress. After reading the book and listening to the CD's the exercises and other methods Dr Weil suggests are easy to follow. Only advice is the music and certain parts are very relaxing so definitely don't plan to do some of the areas of toolkit during working hours save them for home.
Book Review: same o, same o Summary: 3 StarsI have not finished book at this time. I like Dr. Weil's message, but all the books run the same and I got bored. He is good, same information, a different way.
