Product Description
Rainbows and Sunshine (ages 6 to 11)
Relaxation/healing stories developed with hospital pediatricians and child
psychologists to help children cope with medical procedures,
psychological problems, hospital stays, and everyday stress; and to help
activate the body s natural healing process.
Rainbows and Sunshine are peaceful relaxation/healing narratives designed to help
children (ages 6-11) relax, heal, and fall asleep. These narratives are appropriate in a home
setting or in a medical setting.
These delightful narratives use carefully researched age-appropriate mind-body techniques
including guided imagery, relaxation, and healing exercises. Each narrative uses a very
different narrative technique to help appeal to a wider audience. While listening to these
narratives, children are learning relaxation/healing techniques they can practice for the rest
of their lives.
Rainbows is an enchanting bedtime story in which the child drifts on a cloud, visits a
rainbow, and relaxes in a cocoon of healing light. This story includes proven, age-
appropriate relaxation exercises, beautiful guitar and string music, and enchanting songs
about nature. Children relax with positive, happy thoughts in their minds while practicing
relaxation techniques they can use all their lives.
Sunshine is a calming narrative in which children are gently led through age-appropriate
relaxation and healing exercises. This narrative is beautifully orchestrated with strings, flutes, and
waves.
The compositions in both pieces were recorded at the tempo that has been proven to be the
most effective at evoking the relaxation response through a scientific phenomenon known as
rhythm entrainment.

My family and I love this CD. Rainbows and sunshine is very soothing and beautiful. It gives children the feeling they are safe and being enfolded in a big hug. I recommend it to parents. It is a good way to help children feel safe and peaceful in this fast paced world. This is a great tool for parents.

Rainbows and Sunshine : relaxation mind-body CD developed with pediatricians to help children relax, sleep, and heal at home and in hospitals. Recommended for insomnia, stress, anxiety, IBS, injuries, phobias, ADD/ ADHD, surgery, cancer…
I love this CD, and am very happy to have it for my children. It is very warm and positive, and they like to listen to it. I feel that teaching my children positive skills is one of the best things I can do for them. I can tell a lot of thought and work went into this. I like the nature songs in Rainbows; they are positive and beautiful. I love the guitar and vocals, and the lyrics in the songs. (The guitar is especially pretty to listen to with headphones on.) I also like the strings and waves in the other narrative. The scripts in both narratives are relaxing and soothing. It is interesting how different the music in each narrative is, and how the relaxation techniques are different in each narrative.
You will be very happy with this CD; buy it! It will make your life easier while it teaches your child positive skills.

I bought “The Swan and The Mermaid” for my 4 year old and “Rainbows and Sunshine” for my 7 year old. A friend told me about them. Both CDs are wonderful; the music is beautiful, the voices are soothing, and they are really are right for their ages!
My 7 year old loves Rainbows and Sunshine. It is very soothing and the narratives are perfect for him. I like that there are two different narratives; Rainbows is more like a story about floating on a cloud, with songs about sunshine and rainbows. (I love the vocals on these songs; the voices are soothing and pretty.) Sunshine is more like a relaxation narrative, except that it explains things in “kid” terms.
My son liked the CD right away. I play it every night before bed, and I let him listen to it in the car when we drove to my mother’s house for Thanksgiving. It helped him fall asleep in the car (it is a long drive), and it helped him fall asleep at night at Grandma’s house. It was so great to be able to sit and talk with my mom at night while my kids listened to their CDs and went to sleep!
Sometimes I listen to it with him. He was nervous about a report he had to give in school, so in the part where you can picture doing something I suggested that he imagine giving the report without being nervous. It really helped him! I was happy to have a way to help with this; I wish I knew how to do this when I was his age.
I highly recommend these to anyone who has kids, especially kids who are anxious or have trouble calming down and going to sleep.

This is a great CD and is very well-produced. It is not only good for young children who would be lulled to sleep by the soothing music but also for older listeners who would find it relaxing to listen to at the end of a hectic day.
I would really recommend buying this CD. It is a real investment.

This CD is very soothing and relaxing. “Rainbows” is a peaceful story, with beautiful songs about sunshine and a rainbow. My children loved listening to the story and the songs; it relaxes children and puts them to sleep. The guitar parts were written and arranged by professional Boston musicians, and you can tell. (One of the musicians now plays lute with classical ensembles in New York city.)
Sunshine is more like a relaxation/healing narrative, except that the language used to describe the exercises is appropriate for children. Again, the music is soothing (keyboards and waves), and voice is very peaceful.
This CD is beautifully produced, and is perfect for this age group. It was reviewed by doctors (pediatricians and psychologists) to make sure that is appropriate for this age, and that it does not contain imagery that children in hospitals might be sensitive to. The narratives include scientifically-proven exercises; there has been a lot of research about the effectiveness of these mind-body exercises.
I very highly recommend this CD; you will not be disappointed!
