Product Description

Take a few minutes for yourself with this relaxing and approachable collection of guided meditations. All seven original meditations are set to soothing music and recorded by Felicia Brown, an internationally known speaker and teacher in the spa industry. One dollar from every CD sold will be donated to the Melanoma Research Foundation. From the CD liner... My first memory of participating in a guided meditation was after my father died in 1980. I was ten years old and began to have trouble sleeping. My mother, in an effort to help me relax and sleep, would lead me through her own original meditation - one in which I visualized my cats lounging and napping blissfully. I still can hear her words, gently coaxing me to drift off "just like the cats do." Since then, I have always maintained an interest in meditations and other reflective disciplines such as prayer, yoga and journaling. As these practices have always been woven into my life, it seemed only natural that I would incorporate them, especially meditation, into my own professional work and life. Since I began been teaching professionally in the spa and massage industries, I've added guided meditations to the end every class I've taught. While my words of instruction during the class or speech can be helpful and powerful, I have received more comments about the effects of the meditations I do...and many requests for them from my students. It is with great pleasure and thankfulness that I am able to put them all here for them...and you...to enjoy. All of the meditations on this CD are original, but they have been inspired by the words and work of many including Louise Hay, Caroline Myss, Wayne Dyer, Marianne Williamson and Shakti Gawain. They have also been inspired by my thousands of students and clients over the years. Thanks to all of them for their presence in my life and to you for making me a part of yours. Namaste." Felicia

Take time to listen to Felicia Brown's mesmorizing voice and relax. I found it very helpful to fall asleep when I was under great stress and physical pain.

This is a great CD for people who need stress relief! As a massage therapist, I see a lot of people who are tied in knots. Taking some time to sit or lie quietly and listen to the guided meditations can really lower your stress level. I'll recommend this to my clients.

Wonderfully relaxing.......2004-06-22

Loretta has produced a truly excellent aid to relaxation through conscious breathing and visual imagery. The recording goes a long way to creating the connection between Body, Mind and Spirit. I can truly say that this tape has taken me to levels of relaxation and well-being never before experienced. I do enjoy the soundtrack, too, that accompanies her well modulated voice and superimposed heartbeat. The technique is subtle and effective. I keep this tape in my portable tape recorder and use it at any time that I feel stressed or over-tired. I strongly recommend this recording to anyone who needs that stress relief that is so healing. The affirmations given at the end of the tape are well expressed and inspiring.

OUTSTANDING!!!.......2005-12-10

Following hot on the heels of her previous collaboration with koto player Mara Purl (the superb Koto Keys), pianist Marilyn Harris joins up with yet another consummate musical professional (wind instrumentalist Phil Feather) on Winds on Ivory, a recording that is in the much the same vein as Koto Keys, but is also completely different as far as its literal sound. What I mean by all that is that, like Koto Keys, Winds on Ivory is a serene and peace-inducing album, full of meadering yet purposeful musical improvisations, conveying a flowing, almost stream-like, sense of slow movement that is one hundred percent unforced and completely natural. It's a damn amazing album, to be honest. How Harris finds a way to make music so beautiful and so naturally calming, yet so devoid of cliché, maudlin faux sentimentality, or new age glitziness or superficiality is beyond me. To do this twice in one year on two different albums featuring two different accompanists (and who play such different instruments) is quite the achievement.

Once again, as he did on Koto Keys, Mark Wolfram handled production, mixing, mastering duties as well as playing some keyboards (mostly sampled instruments used for sparse coloring effect of subtle accompaniment to one or the other lead instrument). This guy can really mix an album. There are some nature sounds scattered here and there and the amount and their placement in the mix is textbook - I mean it is flawless. Trust me, if Winds on Ivory were released on a major label, it would be HUGE! Ah, the pitfalls of being an independent musician.

Owing to the assortment of wind instruments that Feather plays on the CD's ten tracks, the songs themselves vary more than you'd expect them to, but the overall "feel" of the album is not just coherent but works almost on the level of long-form ambient. Weird, huh?

As she did on Koto Keys, Harris shows remarkable technique in her control of shading and nuance, playing in a sparse and minimal style yet also filling her notes with feeling and grace. Another similarity to her previous collaboration is her unselfish attitude and the way that her and Feather frequently share the spotlight, playing with each other, instead of trading off solos. I would have to say it is this aspect of the music that makes it so enjoyable and also so unique.

Don't bother asking which are my favorite songs on the album. It'd be like deciding between lobster, crab, shrimp or scallops for yours truly (I love 'em all!). However, from a purely subjective viewpoint, I like the sound of Feather's oboe d'amour ("Reverie" and "Sanctuary") and his bass clarinet ("Sky Blue Waters" and "Quiet Forest") best, although the man is no slouch on alto flute, Native American flute, pennywhistle or recorder, either.

This is among the loveliest and prettiest albums I heard last year. Between Wolfram's layering of nature sounds (along with his other instruments), Feather's soulful wind instrument playing, and Harris' evocative piano work, Winds on Ivory is ideal music for late night relaxation, as accompaniment to massage, or you could just sit quietly and drink it in while savoring a glass of wine, a cup of tea or whatever suits your "down time." I suspect that if you are seeking a few moments of peace and serenity, you will find that this CD will more than satisfy you. I give it my highest recommendation, especially for those who like their acoustic instrumental music draped in true gentility and filled with a deep sense of calm.
