Quick Inner Retreats to Calm CD

What is true empowerment, and how do we find it?  Who of us hasn't asked this question?  Man and woman have forever searched the stars, followed the paths of their ancestors and stepped onto new paths of their own intuiting, in search of answers.

Whatever your answer to this question, surely it involves going within, finding that calm space in which to listen inside.  Sometimes we find that this is not so easy, however: the mind insists on whirring, engaging us in thouights when we want to let go.  This CD and Carlo Ami’s website offer openings into the quiet within.

Carlo speaks, posing questions designed for entry into the moment—offering reflective statements that take us into feeling into our bodies, listening into the sounds of water and music to tune in to the still, silent voice that rests inside each of us.

This world is sorely lacking in calm.  The intent of this CD is to create openings into inner peace, and for that I bless Carlo.  You can sit and listen to the entire CD and take the time to “space in”  with each segment, or tune in when you have a minute or two.  Either way, you’ll be doing yourself good and creting one more spot of calm in this landscape of earthly chaos, and your soul will thank you.

As Carlo says on his website, “Going inside yourself takes guts, courage.  It’s certainly easier in the short term to distract yourself from what is truly important, to avoid yourself and keep on muddling through life, no matter how much you think that yourlife may suck.  I invite you to explore your deepest self, to uncover your deepest truths---in your own way.  It can be much easier than your mind thinks.  If you let your mind run your life, you will never be truly happy, never fully love or be loved.”

The rewards of going within are amazing.  I highly recommend this CD and the experiences offered on YourPauseButton.com.
