"It's easy. Just follow
along with me. Good. Now slowly breathe in through your nose and
out through your mouth. Perfect. And remember... you can always use
your imagination and breathing to feel good."

ABOUT THE VIDEODVD: 2 Hours Unbelievably beautiful images of wildlife and nature are combined with a relaxing original music score and various exercises to help children and their families relax. For approximately five minutes at the beginning of each hour, and briefly at the half hour, a soft voice is heard that gently guides the child in various breathing and guided imagery exercises. The Children’s Hospital of Michigan is ranked one of the best in the nation by U.S. News and World Report. A major initiative of their integrative medicine department is to expand their non-medicated pain management efforts. The Relaxation Station is a new innovative video designed to help in this effort. At The Children’s Hospital of Michigan, this program is shown throughout the hospital, 24 hours a day, seven days a week on a dedicated channel (CCTV). Though The Relaxation Station was originally created to help calm children who are hospitalized, studies have shown that it is effective for all children including those with special needs as well as their families. In our busy and often stressful world, The Relaxation Station has proven to have a calming effect on the viewer by transporting them to a sweet, gentle and peaceful state of mind. And, more importantly, it gives them easy relaxation and meditation techniques which they can use throughout their lives. |
