| I have found Dr. Sarno's Healing Back Pain CD's very helpful.I like to listen to them at night when I am going to bed.It seems like it not only relaxes me but also reinforces his messages in my head when I am falling asleep.Has anyone found any other CD's that have been helpfull in the meditation process.I had extreme back pain for over 20 years until I read Dr. Sarno's books and applied his methods.I have been pain free for 6 years and want to continue pain free.I am running my first marathon (Chicago)in 8 weeks and 6 years ago I could not lift myself off the floor at least once a week.If anyone knows of any new books or CD's that will help please write back.Thanks |

Good luck on your first marathon!I listen to Dr. Schecter's cd, The Mindbody Audio Program, and Candace Pert's Psychosomatic Wellness cd.
Pert's cd is half music, and half a guided meditation. Both are at Amazon.com |

I lied! I looked back at my bills, and I ordered Candace Pert's cd,
called "Psychosomatic Wellness", from www.soundstrue.com . They have a lot of interesting titles, I just checked and it is still listed.
I really like the music part, and as a lame beginner meditator, 1/2 hour of guided meditation is plenty for me.Guy- on Sunday i tried a
supplement for aerobic excercise some friends reccomended- L Arginine
I normally only take a one a day vitamin, some flax seed, eat well, etc. I had planned a 4 hour run, with hills, intervals, you name it.
i hate hills. I was passing runners and cyclists, and was not tired.
I had a negative split, 2 hours out 1:45 back, with the wind at my back. I still thought, this may be a placebo effect. But, the last two days, I felt like I missed my run on Sunday, my legs feel fresh.
That can't be a placebo.I feel like I am cheating, but I am telling everyone that runs, to relieve my guilt. I purchased mine at GNC, but it is widely available, and is also supposed to be good for your heart. Search yourself-under arginine and nitric oxide.Al |

| Laura- you are welcome - I love Candace Pert, also, I have Molecules of Emotion, and Your Body is Your Subconscious Mind. She is so easy to listen to, and is not a snobby person, for a genius. |

Hey Al,
Have you seen the movie What the Bleep Do We Know? If you are a fan of Candace Pert I'm sure you have. If not, definitely check it out. I mentioned on this forum a few months ago when I first saw it. What a mind blowing film. It's all about the mind body connection and how our thoughts influce physiological responses in the body. Very interesting stuff.

Laura- I haven't seen "what the bleep do we know", but I will rent it this weekend. I just have to get my kids to show me how to use the dvd player. Thanks!
Guy- I talked to a bike racer that I work with that used arginine for 5 months, and had great results, no side effects, also a
weghtlifter that also mountain bikes, that told me you can try taking much less than what it says on the label ie:just before your training runs. On www.drmirkin.com , there is a study that shows that
arginine removes fatty plaques from arteries. I couldn't find any negative comments on the product, other than it has not been studied in longer than 6 month trials. |
