meditation download?

Hi, everyone, I'm looking for a really good guided meditation download that I can put on my ipod. Something like the grounding visualization that we have posted here, so I can listen to the cues rather than read them. If anyone has a favorite, could you share please? I'm trying to make myself take steps every day to get out of the house, do more driving, etc. I had a big day this week and went to the grocery all by myself! First time in five weeks I've been anywhere or driven alone. I also drove myself to a dr's appt. and to a haircut, so I'm on a roll. I haven't been completely back to my normal routine, but I'm making progress. :) My biggest challenges will be driving on the freeway, and getting on an airplane. We have a vacation planned next month, and I'm hoping that listening to the meditation will help me get through the airplane thing. And my mom is in an assisted living home an hour away with Alzheimer's, and I used to go once a week to care for her - now I'm so worried about having a panic attack while driving, I haven't see her in six weeks. Thanks for your help! Hugs, AJ

That is great news, AJ! Do something nice for yourself. You deserve it after so many accomplishments. Keep up the good work!


I quick checked our *coping tips & tricks* below. Will any of these help?

I don't know ANYTHING about ipods, lol, but can you read a meditation & tape it?

Thanks for the suggestions - I didn't think of it earlier, but I searched itunes and found a whole bunch of them. I would still like to hear if anyone has a favorite, though. I'm looking for ones with a really soothing voice (not my own!) and calm music, and ones that can be done anywhere while sitting. :) AJ
