About this audiobook

Our Health Journeys guided meditation for OCD has been specifically designed for people with obsessive compulsive disorder and can be used as stand-alone help for OCD or for use in combination with other recommended treatment approaches, such as cognitive behavioral therapy and medication. Here's the track list:1. Introduction (2:53)2. OCD Guided Imagery (23:13)3. OCD Affirmations (23:58)This Health Journeys guided imagery for OCD was written and narrated by noted psychotherapist and guided imagery pioneer Belleruth Naparstek, scored to the immersive music of Steven Mark Kohn, and produced by Cleveland Orchestra's Bruce Gigax. Carefully researched and written, this guided meditation for OCD helps reduce anxiety, stabilizes biochemical swings, increases strength and motivation to divert unwanted thoughts and behaviors, and catalyzes hope by envisioning a time of freedom from OCD's oppressive symptoms. Repeated listening to this meditation for OCD, once or twice a day for 2-3 weeks, ensures maximum impact. Regular listening to this holistic, mind-body program delivers respite and relief, treating OCD naturally through the development of powerful self-calming techniques - a critical component of any cognitive behavioral approach to treating OCD - resulting in a centered, balanced state of mind, brightened mood and clear, focused mind. Not only are meditation and OCD a winning combination; this program also features a separate track of affirmations to bolster progress with positive statements in a briefer format, for listening while out and about. Listen to an audio sample and see for yourself why this natural OCD treatment program is so strongly recommended by therapists, doctors and counselors nationwide, to aid in combating, managing and conquering OCD as well as other anxiety-related conditions.
