Biofeedback, Hypnosis, & Relaxation by Victor Shamas, Ph.D. US$12.50 plus $2 shipping. On this CD, Dr. Shamas guides you through three of the most powerful mind-body healing methods known in the field of health psychology. The biofeedback exercise is done without any outside instrumentation. In this exercise, you become your own heart-rate monitor, and then you learn to slow down your heart rate in a way that reduces stress and enhances relaxation. The self-hypnosis exercise is designed specifically for pain management, whereas the relaxation exercise is a form of the classic progressive muscle relaxation technique that has been used successfully in pain management since the 1930's.
