32 Relax Sessions
Quick Break
by Rayma Ditson-Sommer, Ph.D.
Program length: 15 minutes RELAX A-2
This program was designed to provide a “quick break” for people involved in care
giving and other very high stress situations. It starts in beta, but quickly drops into
theta and on into delta. This short, deep rest period allows for calmness development
in a short time and ends in an energizing mode which allows you to return to the job
rested and ready to resume. The program can be used many times during the day.
Clearing Your Mind
by Frank Young, Ph.D.
Program length: 16 minutes RELAX A-3
This session progressively ramps you from beta down to delta. It can be used just be-
fore going to sleep or at other points in the day when you want to be free of intrusive
thoughts so that you can better focus and concentrate.

Program length: 20 minutes RELAX A-4
