Product Description
Rainbows and Sunshine (ages 6 to 11)
Relaxation/healing stories developed with hospital pediatricians and child
psychologists to help children cope with medical procedures,
psychological problems, hospital stays, and everyday stress; and to help
activate the body s natural healing process.
Rainbows and Sunshine are peaceful relaxation/healing narratives designed to help
children (ages 6-11) relax, heal, and fall asleep. These narratives are appropriate in a home
setting or in a medical setting.
These delightful narratives use carefully researched age-appropriate mind-body techniques
including guided imagery, relaxation, and healing exercises. Each narrative uses a very
different narrative technique to help appeal to a wider audience. While listening to these
narratives, children are learning relaxation/healing techniques they can practice for the rest
of their lives.
Rainbows is an enchanting bedtime story in which the child drifts on a cloud, visits a
rainbow, and relaxes in a cocoon of healing light. This story includes proven, age-
appropriate relaxation exercises, beautiful guitar and string music, and enchanting songs
about nature. Children relax with positive, happy thoughts in their minds while practicing
relaxation techniques they can use all their lives.
Sunshine is a calming narrative in which children are gently led through age-appropriate
relaxation and healing exercises. This narrative is beautifully orchestrated with strings, flutes, and
waves.
The compositions in both pieces were recorded at the tempo that has been proven to be the
most effective at evoking the relaxation response through a scientific phenomenon known as
rhythm entrainment.
