    meditation as a way to calm trading angsts

    The CD is copied to my harddrive; I use it on my laptop with headphones. I use it either just when waking up, and/or before going to sleep. It is designed to leave you awake & alert. So when going into sleep finish it off before the reentry technique. Maybe I can explain why I can’t talk...
