Welcome to the forum!

You'll find some incredibly insightful and wise folks here (listen to them first!)

On the topic of CDs and such, I can't say enough about what these guys produce:

I have hundreds of binaurals ranging from hemi-sync to holo-sync to you name it. I just found these gems from reading about them on a Lucid Dreaming blog that mentioned them. Note that I do NOT work for anyone and get no kick backs of any kind. I don't promote what I don't believe in. All I can say is that after using their Astral and Lucid dreaming mp3s, I have had my first successes. I can feel myself loosening when I listen. And, they're just pleasant sounding, unlike so many others.

Of course, we're all different. Your mileage may vary.

Best of luck (if there is such a thing)!
