I listened to this book and I think that was part of the problem. The whispery intense narration coupled with New Age music off putting. I did like the sand imagery.
This is exactly the kind of material we need in these difficult times. When finished I feel rested, relaxed and prepared to return to this chaotic world.
The synthesized music in the background of this guided meditation is groovy. The whole package is very relaxing and refreshing. Mantell's voice is smooth and soothing. I'd recommend this meditation for anyone who wants to take a mini-break from life and return refreshed and ready to go or to prepare for sleep.
