Hello!
My two OPEN YOUR HEART Meditation & Relaxation CDs (there's one especially for brides and one for all women) are a soothing and easy way to bring relaxation into your busy world. That’s why I created these meditation CDs for you. To make it easy to slow down, take a breather, and have a sweet refreshment of ease!
................................................
A Calm, Relaxed Bride-to-Be….No, it's Not an Oxymoron!
This unique CD— OPEN YOUR HEART Meditations for Brides—is designed to bring soothing ease into the life of a busy, multi-tasking bride-to-be.
The CD of two guided meditations and one guided relaxation exercise (created and read by Cornelia Powell along with some of her charming wedding folklore, all to the background of soothing original music) is for every on-the-go bride. Listening to the calming CD is a little refreshment of ease for "on the verge" brides, "Zen" brides, and everyone in-between!
Cornelia, a bridal historian and wedding entrepreneur, created OPEN YOUR HEART Meditations for Brides to bring a relaxing introspection into a bride’s life during the dizzying swirl of planning a wedding. (What a wonderful gift to take into her life "after the wedding!")
Through her experiences working with thousands of brides for over 25 years, Cornelia has become the spokesperson for intimate weddings of the heart, bringing more ease and awareness into the lives of all women. Known as the bride's sage and a wedding folklorist, Cornelia draws the best from the past and creates a “modern mythology” for today’s bride in her book, The Bride's Ritual Guide: Look Inside To Find Yourself, magazine articles and lectures, as well as in her innovative Weddings of Grace online magazine and Letters To A Bride blog.

A Womanly Ritual for Deep Relaxation
Through the years, I’ve worked with thousands of brides…and their mothers, grandmothers, sisters, friends…women going through their own particular rite-of-passage. Those transitional times of change and growth when our emotions tend to bubble over!
I shared with them how to relax and settle into a peaceful, quiet place within so they could connect more deeply with the heart of their rite-of-passage…that place that nurtures and inspires.
Whatever your rite-of-passage—whether you are a bride-to-be, newly wed, or a woman in the full of her life exploring what's next!—listening to my OPEN YOUR HEART guided meditations will be like immersing yourself in your own reverie of “soothing stillness time”—a womanly ritual for deep relaxation—exploring where your rite-of-passage takes you.

A Lovely Bit of Serendipity
Each CD is a series of two guided meditations and one guided relaxation exercise inspired by the "Take a Breather" column in my online magazine, Weddings of Grace….each meditation and relaxing exercise is accompanied by divinely-guided music.
The story of how the CD recordings all came about is a lovely bit of serendipity!
I met Daniel Sperry—a man of creative ideas and immense musical talent—while I was writing a script with the idea of recording a meditation CD for brides. When he learned I was planning a trip to Ashland, Oregon (where he lives), he suggested a collaboration of sorts, like a performance piece: he would play the cello and a friend play the keyboards while I read the guided meditation.
However, there was a bit of chaos prior to the magic! Three weeks before the recording date, someone stepped on Daniel's prized cello after a practice session, breaking its neck. Then the keyboard player was not available at the last minute.
But Ashland is not only a collective of magicians of the spirit, but magicians of musical instruments as well! Daniel found a master restorer just down the street—who repaired the cello just in the nick of time—and then was guided to the musical wizard, Richard Raven Williams, who also had a studio we could use.
Richard plays a variety of Japanese flutes and exotic Middle Eastern string instruments. His light-filled studio, Lightsound Recordings, is nestled in the Ashland high desert countryside near Eden Farms; a peaceful place where mistreated and sick horses are taken to be tended to and loved. It made a serene, healing environment to work and a glorious collaboration indeed happened! Daniel and Richard's improvised and heart-infused music created a heavenly background to my readings.
I can't wait to see what you think!
Do You Already Have a Meditation Practice?
Whether you already have a meditation practice or not, these CDs are an easy and simple way to create a daily meditative ritual for a few minutes of deep relaxation. It could be as an afternoon break in your busy day; or after a bath to continue your relaxation; or before bed to support deep rest. Listen with the privacy of your headphones or play it out in the room; but either way, allow yourself a bit of quiet solitude.
As you listen to these meditations and relaxing exercises—opening your heart, softening your life—I invite you to take a deep breath, “look inside to find yourself”….and enjoy the journey!
Purchasing is easy…if you're buying for yourself or for a gift. Just click on the button below and you're there! (If you have a bride in your world, the OPEN YOUR HEART Meditation for Brides would be a wonderful gift!)
Give yourself a gift of ease and heart-opening softness.
With love & gratitude,
Cornelia
