From AudioFile
In Dr. Andrew Weil's self-healing series, proper breathing is considered the most important practice for healthy living. In this two-CD guide, Dr. Weil not only teaches eight fundamental breathing exercises, but also keeps listeners entertained with anecdotes from his own medical practice. There is an even stronger sense of informality in Dr. Weil's performance than in previous audio presentations. The entire production has the warm quality of listening to an interview--only no one is asking the doctor questions. This serves the higher purpose of engaging listeners, helping them to be more receptive to the methods he shares. R.A.P. (c) AudioFile, Portland, Maine
