Getting into the Vortex: Guided Meditations CD and User Guide [Hicks, Esther, Hicks, Jerry] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Getting into the Vortex: Guided Meditations CD and User Guide Review: Getting Into The Vortex: Guided Meditations CD and User Guide - I have been a meditator for 40 years. I have experimented with many different disciplines and have enjoyed consistent benefits through these practices. I have also been an ardent follower of Abraham since 1994. I totally embrace the concept that we live in an attraction based Universe and that whatever events we experience in our lives are symbols of beliefs that we hold. However, I have come to understand that many of those beliefs are so enmeshed in the bedrock of our personalities that they are effectively invisible to us in a discrete form. As such, they are difficult to identify and if they are restrictive in nature, hard to release. Abraham has addressed this problem in a most powerful, yet subtle, way. The book that comes with this CD contains all of the concepts expressed on the recording. It offers a written expansion on each of those concepts so that the reader can intellectually digest them and come to an acknowledgment of their validity. However, most of us have learned that agreeing with a concept intellectually does not necessarily incorporate that concept into the meshwork of our belief system. It remains somewhat outside of who we are. This is where the guided meditation comes in. On the CD are two processes. The first is intended to focus the mind on our breathing - a practice common to a great many meditation techniques. This has the effect of quieting the otherwise incessant mind-chatter that distracts from connecting with our inner calm. The breathing pattern they establish is three beats of the music for breathing in and five beats for breathing out. The music changes key to signal these two phases, but it still helps to count beats if one is not to lose the sequence. This has the effect of providing a strong focus of attention, one which does not admit of mind-chatter. While this breathing pattern is being maintained, with the occasional reminder by Abraham to "breath in" or "breath out" at the appropriate places, they are also speaking the same concepts that were written in the book. But since our mind is focused on the breathing, it is not free to analyze what is being said. There is no distraction about the pros and cons of the concepts. It is the same process that is used by teaching programs that play while one is falling asleep. Since the meditator has already used the book to analyze the concepts, any resistance about being told what to do or being hypnotized should be dispelled. (If the concepts were not acceptable the user would not proceed to the meditation CD.) Hearing aphorisms that one already agrees with while being in a completely non-judgmental state allows those concepts to weave themselves comfortably into the bedrock of our personality, replacing the old, resistant ones. As suggested by Abraham, these meditations should be undertaken daily purely because they bring one to a place of feeling better. They advise against trying to measure objective progress in one's life. That is because doing so requires a neutral mindset, one that incorporates both failure and success, each tending to cancel the other. Accordingly, I enjoyed the lift in my spirits throughout the day that came from the meditations but looked for no more evidence than that. However, I was amazed to discover, by accident, that my physical strength and stamina suddenly took a quantum jump. Tasks which only a week before were taxing me to my limit suddenly were easy, even invigorating! In my experience of only a week or so with these guided meditations I have already experienced some profound benefits. Additionally, I find that I have been able to uncover some of those resistive, bedrock beliefs that have been holding me back through most of my life and I am having a great deal of fun consciously turning them around. Review: Oh wow... wish there was a 6 star option. - I am familiar with Abraham as in I know of them, but had never really heard them, I mean via my ears that is. I've read 1 book a long time ago. I got this to build up a positive thinking, manifesting, guided meditation playlist. And I have to say, out of the dozens or so I've heard and of the 5 or so I've pared down to for my playlist, this is by far the best. -The voice is like honey lulling me into a state of relaxation, joy, security and ease... -There really is a kind of magical science to the cadence, rhythm, wording of each of the 4 tracks -You get 4 tracks at 15 minutes each, plus 2 intro's, plus an accompanying book which holds the script to each of the tracks. -The instructions are clear. This is like a recipe; do not deviate from the recipe. -The 4 tracks cover Well Being, Money, Your Body, and Your Relationships. You begin with 1 and then can go to your most pressing concern after that be it money, your body or love/friends/family. The first track is the foundation for the other 3. -The instructions emphasize consistency and persistence. Change takes time and patience. The results I have had so far, after regular use of track 1, is that my breathing has improved and my overall well-being and mood has improved...I find myself in the zone, in flow, in "the Vortex", more often than I have been in previous years. When this happens, things fall into my lap, e.g. I pull into a crowded parking lot and as I breathe out deeply, my eyes notice a car right in front of me is leaving; I run into people I haven't seen in some time; I think of someone and they call or text; as I'm grocery shopping, I hear another shopper's conversation that gives me the great idea for the perfect present for my loved one's upcoming birthday... and so on. My timing perfectly aligns with the universe's, so things really do fall into my lap. So, bottomline, My life is better because of the consistency with which I have been listening to track 1 on a regular basis. I will update as I move into track 2, after the holidays of this 2018-19 season.

Best Meditation Guide I ever heard.
It has been said, that If you can redirect your thoughts to ones of ease and flow through meditation, your life can change dramatically. Most people reject the idea of meditation because it seems too weird or they don't have time, or they can't settle down and focus with out their mind wandering in a 100 different directions. What this CD does is allow you to use the rhythm of the music and the encouraging reinforcement of a positive message from Abraham, to moderate and guide your thoughts and regulate your respiration rate. This then allows you to effortlessly relax and get into a calm harmonious state of being. The 15 minutes passes and you barely notice the time has gone by. There are four different 15 meditations included, along with an instruction book which you really must read first to get the most out of the meditations. The first week you listen to each one and then repeat in the original order, but after that just pick a subject, that resonates with your intention for that day. I love to meditate, but find I often do not take the time out of my day to do so. I am very excited to find this CD, as it puts me in a relaxed and meditative state within a few seconds and feeling wonderful. I am very motivated to continue this on a daily basis. Kudos to Ester and Jerry Hicks (and Abraham) for this stupendous meditation tool.

Firstly I would say that if you are not familiar with the teachings of Abraham then this may not be for you - simply because if you are not familiar with the terminology used then you may not understand what is being talked about. Anyway! As an avid follower of the teachings of Abraham, this meditation CD has brought me to new heights. The segments in the CD are only 15 minutes each, are easy to listen to and get you into a wonderful state of relaxation. This CD has helped me to become even more aware of my thoughts throughout the day, and to be really efficient at cleaning up resistance as it comes up. I have had some wonderful experiences whilst practicing the breathing when not even listening to the CD, very deep and profound insights. I would also say that go get maximum benefit from this CD you should also be applying the teachings throughout your day - this is not a 'quick fix' listen to the cd a couple of times and solve all your problems. This is about learning how to be happy - always - and that is the only thing that matters. This teaches how to align with source. It was never about 'getting the stuff' it is only and ever about alignment. Since listening to the CD almost every day for the past 2 weeks, (and making the effort to clean up my vibration moment by moment each day) I am in the vortex for at least 65% each day, things are really turning around for me. I have nothing but praise for the work that Esther and Jerry are doing, in bringing Abrahams teachings to us. I personally found that once I found Abe, I have never needed to read any other material on Law of attraction or any other metaphysical books for that matter - because all the questions I ever had have been answered by Abraham. Buying their materials for me has been the best investment I ever made. If you feel this is right for you - buy it! If not, find your own way. 5 Stars from me xx

Das Begleitbuch ist fantastisch. Es erklärt wie und warum man die Meditation macht. Die Meditationen gehen 15 minuten, es gibt ein Vorwort von Jerry Hicks und Einführung von Abraham dazu. Esthers sanfte Stimme in Kombination mit der wunderschönen Musik und Botschaften von Abraham machen die Meditation zu einem Erlebnis. Ich habe die Kindle Version gekauft, dabei war ein Code um sich die Meditation downzuladen. Das hat super geklappt. Ich bin so Dankbar dass Amazon diese Möglichkeit auch Raritäten zu kaufen bietet, und das zum so angenehmen Preis.
