Product Description
Indigo Ocean Dreams is a 60 minute audio/CD designed to entertain your child in an ocean setting while introducing them to four research-based, stress management techniques. Each story integrates either progressive muscular relaxation, visualizations, breathing, and affirmations (positive statements). Children follow their sea friends along as they use progressive muscular relaxation and breathing to release and manage anger with Angry Octopus. Children build self-esteem with positive believe in yourself statements with Affirmation Weaver. Diaphragmatic breathing is fun with sea otters in Sea Otter Cove. Children enjoy a bubble ride through the ocean as they visualize colors with Bubble Riding. This CD offers longer stories than the first in this series, Indigo Dreams. Ideal for older children ages 6-12, or as step two for those already familiar with Indigo Dreams. Engaging characters present these adult level techniques in an easy to follow format that makes it fun for any child to learn. The male narration is accompanied by calming sounds of dolphins, sea otters, and gentle waves. An additional music sound track is included to further enhance your child's relaxation experience. These proven techniques encourage wellness and provide tools for children who suffer from anxiety, stress, trauma, hyperactivity, anger, pain, sleep issues, and lack of confidence.

 Exceptitonal! July 5, 2005

The Indigo Dreams series is exceptional: The writing is delightful, the narration gentle and soothing, the music is dreamy and non-intrusive, and the relaxation techniques effective (even on a kid in her 5th decade of life!) Because I create guided meditation CDs for adults, I am extremely familiar with what is in the marketplace. More often than not I'm dissappointed, but I'm happy to say that Indigo Ocean Dreams delighted me. Not only does this CD help the listener to relax, it gently addresses some of the issues that can cause stress (anger, anxiety, poor self esteem, etc.), helping kids to find constructive ways to have more calm in their waking life as well. I'm looking forward to the next CD!

My 10 year old daughter has been going through a tough time...lots of drama related to her friendships and anxiety about the foregoing issues led to pretty severe bouts of insomnia. I ordered these cds based on the reviews, and was so pleased. My daughter listened to them at bedtime, and the first night, slept the entire night through. She was able to relate to the stories, and the positive affirmations were something new to her that she truely embraced. I highly recommend that parents buy this series for their kids if they are struggling with anxiety or social concerns. I listened to them too, and found them helpful as well.
Best Anger Management Story November 9, 2006

Ocean creatures make this fun. My girls (ages 3 & 5), can relate to the octopus in the first story, stomp and get mad, then get under control. Then I can remind them later to be like the angry octopus and get control of themselves to fix things, instead of just being angry.

I never take time to do these reviews as I am too
busy. But this one deserves my time.
My son (5) is a bit on the anxious side due to some
surgeries, a very active mind/tense body, and quite
simply due to his personality. I have tried to teach
him breathing techniques and a small amount of
meditation- he didn't really learn them all that well.
However he LOVES both the Indigo Dreams cds for
kids and learned the breathing techniques
immediately. I was surprised to hear him say one
day out of the blue "MOM! On the cd there's one
called "Bubble Ride" and you can feel the bubbles
cascading all the way down to your fingertips and it
REALLY makes me relax!"
He won't go to sleep without them now. He
associates it with relaxation and sleep so all I have
to do is turn on the cd player and he immediately
closes his eyes and gets down to the business of
relaxing towards sleep. Before the cds, he would be
up and down in his room for up to an hour before
he would settle down and stay in bed.
My neighbors 10 yr old daughter is also very anxious
due to a break-in in their new home recently and
some other issues she has. I suggested this cd
awhile ago but her mother didn't buy it. Finally after
they had yet another sleepless night due to some
bad night terrors and were exhausted, I walked
down and physically handed one of our cds to them
so they would try it. She said her daughter loves
them and zonks right out. I never did hear if they
have "cured" her of the night terrors and anxiety
but I do know they bought their own copies the
next day!
It's a good thing too because my son was literally
crying to get his Indigo Ocean Dreams copy back
one night (he had the other one - Indigo Dreams
though!) and I had to walk down to their house in
the dark and trade them for our Indigo Dreams
copy!
The woman's voice is so soothing. It's
wonderful. I love to listen to it too. The pace is
perfect also. Thank you so much for these cds.
Children have so much to deal with in their little
lives and it's wonderful to see someone paying
attention to this and teaching them these
techniques they can learn easily and use for the rest
of their lives! Thank you Thank you!
Very Good Resource for Mental Health Worker January 17, 2007

Indigo Ocean Dreams I would highly recommend this CD for mental health workers who have children on their caseload. Finding resources for children are very difficult so I was very happy to locate this product. I have been working with several children experiencing anger management and anxiety problems and they really enjoy this CD. Also, their parents benefit from the techniques and the time spent with their children practicing the techniques.
