Stem Cell visualisation/meditation CD

by Sue on Fri Jan 11, 2013 12:53 am

Hello.
My sister was diagnosed with Plasma Cell Leukaemia late last year and is due to have an autologous stem cell transplant in a few weeks. I saw an abstract of a journal article about the benefits of patients listening to stem cell meditation CDs while undergoing treatment. The only match I can find is an "audio cassette" by Belaruth Naparstek called "Meditation to Help with Bone Marrow & Stem Cell Transplantation (Health Journeys)" which is for sale on Amazon with a hefty price tag of over $500 (I have sent them an email asking if that price is correct!)! The Leukaemia Foundation here (Western Australia) are understandably reluctant to spend that sort of money on one item but if the consensus is that it is worth the price tag (although I am not sure how useful an audio cassette is these days) I will buy it and donate it to them after my sister has had her treatment. Does anyone know of any alternative stem cell transplant- specific CD that has a more realistic price?
Kind regards and best wishes. Sue

Hi Kay
Thank you for your reply. They also have CDs and MP3 downloads on the Health Journeys website and I contacted Dr Susan Bauer-Wu who has her own CD (and book) available for purchase. Kind regards, Sue
