The Four Steps To Center technique was developed by Dr. Carol Robin to help her clients who were frustrated with trying to meditate on their own. It is a simple and effective technique that uses the the four levels of being; body, heart, mind and spirit. Carol guides you effortlessly into a relaxed state, and then takes you through each level, helping you relax the tensions, reduce the distractions and release the concerns and stresses that prevent you from moving into relaxation and meditation. With regular practice, you can learn to easily shift your consciousness in and out of a meditative state, and use this technique on your own.

"Carol's guided meditations are both practical enough for a beginner, and profound enough for an experienced seeker. She brings an indescribable measure of calm and wisdom to every aspect of her practice. Everyone I have ever given Carol's CDs to, and that includes just about everyone I know, has found them to be the best of their kind."

“Four Steps To Center is a very cool CD. It de-mystifies the whole meditation thing so that for the first time, I felt like I could really learn to do it. The music and her voice are very relaxing, and I like the simplicity of the system. I recommend it to anyone who has tried and failed to learn to meditate.”

This CD and mp3 is recommended for people who wish to learn to meditate, or have had difficulty learning to meditate. Experienced meditators may also find this technique a welcome new perspective and a helpful addition to their current meditation practice.

The Four Steps to Center™ technique is used in many of our guided imagery meditation CDs and mp3s. Dr. Robin uses her innovative technique to help you access the mind-body connection and your innate healing abilities.

Combining imagery with meditation magnifies it's effectiveness. Among other natural health related benefits, meditation can help people with anxiety, depression and stress reduction. The relaxed, meditative state you will reach with guided imagery meditation will help you achieve relaxation, stress management and many other health benefits.

Track 1 is an introductory guided imagery meditation that teaches you the Four Steps To Center™ process. Listen to this track as many times as you wish, to become comfortable with the process. Afterward, you can continue with track 1 (30 minutes), or move on to track 2 (30 minutes), or use them both as suits you.

Track 2 is called “Earth and Sky, Body and Spirit.” In this guided imagery meditation, you learn to connect the energies of Body and Spirit, grounding and centering yourself. You then have opportunity for your own inner healing work and exploration once you have reached a meditative state. You can use the meditation state to relax, reduce or relieve stress, for healing, grounding and centering. In meditation you can ask for guidance, find inspiration, open yourself to forgiveness and compassion, re-charge and rejuvenate your system, or simply remember the true depth of your being. You can be creative and be open to whatever comes to you. Everything is possible.

Use these guided meditations anytime you have an uninterrupted half hour.

For your safety, do not listen while driving.

Guided meditation is a process by which a guide or teacher leads you into meditation. An effective guide will teach you a simple pathway to a meditative state, as well as help you experience being in that state. Once you have experienced what it feels like to be in the natural state of meditation, and learned the path to it, it is easy for you to take yourself there. Many people attempt to learn meditation on their own, but become frustrated and discouraged. The problems they encounter may be due to ineffective techniques and/or inadequate guidance. Being guided into the experience of a meditative state, helps to relieve those frustrations. These CDs relieve those problems by expertly guiding you through the natural and highly effective Four Steps to Center™ technique.

Meditation is, most simply, the process of re-connecting our mind, emotions, and body with our spirit. The basic purpose of meditation is to bring us back to our center, where we are in communication with our higher/deeper/inner self, and with spirit. There are many ways to meditate, and cultures all over the world have used meditation in many different forms. There is no single right way to meditate; we each find the form that works best for us. The Four Steps to Center™ technique is based in the Western tradition of meditation techniques. It was developed for people looking for a simple, natural, effective daily technique that they could easily follow and use on their own. Once you reach the place of center, unlimited possibilities are available to you. There are many beneficial health related, stress management, and healing effects that have been demonstrated with regular, daily meditation, such as:

• relaxation
• better sleep
• stress reduction, relief, and management
• reduced levels of stress hormones
• pain management and accelerated healing
• improved mental health
• improved physical health
• better focus and concentration
• reduction of anxiety and depression
• reduction of irritability and anger
• grounding and centering
• reduction of blood pressure
• relief from digestive problems
• reduced hormonal imbalances

Through meditation, you create a closer connection with your spiritual self; with your innate wisdom, love and compassion, your strength, power, vitality and creativity. By connecting in this natural way, you can bring these qualities of spirit into your daily life. Meditation effects every part of your daily life. When you meditate regularly, the inspiration, guidance, forgiveness, and serenity that emanates from your higher self flows into every moment of your life. This brings with it peace of mind, open-heartedness, physical and emotional health and healing, and relief from anxiety, depression and stress.

You can use meditation to ground and center yourself, or to send healing energy and relief to whatever part of you needs it. You can ask for guidance, find inspiration, open yourself to forgiveness and compassion, re-charge and rejuvenate your system, or simply remember the true depth of your being. You can be creative, and open to what comes to you. Everything is possible.

Guided Imagery

Imagery comes from the same root word as ”imagination,” and describes the way your mind and body communicate, through images, words, feelings or sensations.  Like guided meditation, guided imagery can be facilitated by another person or guide, or guided by you yourself. In Dr. Robin’s work, she uses guided imagery combined with meditation to create a relaxed, focused state in which your guided imagery can be more powerful and more effective.

The word “imagine” describes the ability to form images and ideas in the mind. Our creation of images is an innate, natural ability of all human beings. Often used interchangeably with the term “visualization,” the word “imagery” actually gives a more accurate sense of this mode. Where the word visualization implies that we are using our sight or vision, in fact, people have many different ways of imaging or imagining. Some people do experience visual images or pictures, like watching a movie, or like actually being in the movie and seeing what is around them. For others, imagery may take the form of physical sensation or feelings, a kinesthetic experience. Some people are more auditory, their hearing is the most dominant sense in imagery, for some it is a sense of smell. Others may experience a sense of “knowing,” in their mind, their heart, or in their whole being that transcends the basic five senses.

Guided imagery has been studied extensively for decades. It has been proven to improve a variety of health conditions, to minimize bleeding and complications in surgery and improve recovery, improve athletic performance, school performance, decrease anxiety and depression and a long list of other uses. It is simple, effective and can be used by anyone. Dr. Robin has used guided imagery for people going into surgery for over 20 years and seen significant improvements in their experience of surgery, as well as the rate of recovery. Dr. Robin’s guided imagery meditations help you creatively work with images to create powerful changes in your life and health. The list above, of benefits of meditation can be looked at again here, as all these benefits apply to guided imagery, as well. By using imagery and meditation together, their effectiveness is magnified:

• relaxation
• better sleep
• stress reduction, relief, and management
• reduced levels of stress hormones
• pain management and accelerated healing
• improved mental health
• improved physical health
• better focus and concentration
• reduction of anxiety and depression
• reduction of irritability and anger
• grounding and centering
• reduction of blood pressure
• relief from digestive problems
• reduced hormonal imbalances

The guided imagery meditations on Dr. Robin’s CDs and mp3’s are designed to empower you to access the innate healing potentials that we all have within us.

Everything is possible.
