If you have had
an abortion, you may be experiencing many different feelings.
Relief, grief, empowerment, anger, loss, happiness, guilt,
fear, freedom, anxiety, depression and many others are all
common and normal feelings. It is common and normal
for them to change. It is also always possible to find a
place of peace with your life choices. This CD can help
you find that place of peace.
Being at peace with choices© creates
a safe, non-judgmental, private space in which you can be
present with all of your
thoughts and emotions before and after your abortion, validating
and empowering your choices. The CD uses the calm, beautiful
voice and centering wisdom of Dr. Robin along with a beautiful,
original soundtrack by Cathie Malach to create a safe, supportive,
nurturing space, and acknowledgement of the multitude of
often conflicting and confusing emotional reactions that
can surface. You can listen to this CD in your preparation,
in the recovery room, and at any time afterwards.
Dr. Carol Robin has over 25 years of experience in using
guided imagery and visualization to help people work with
a variety of physical and emotional issues. Out of this
expertise, her 30 year involvement in women’s healthcare,
her experience with Exhale’s Training in Post-Abortion
Support and her work with Planned Parenthood of the Mid-Hudson
Valley’s clinics she has created “being
at peace with choices© ” a
guided imagery CD that can help people find peace with their
abortion decision and
experience.
In the current political climate that surrounds abortion
issues, many women and their partners feel un-supported
or invalidated by those around them who have different perspectives,
and find it difficult to talk openly about their feelings.
Often many years afterwards, the feelings are still there,
waiting patiently, or often not so patiently, for an opportunity
to be acknowledged and validated. Acknowledging, validating
and empowering your choices, your feelings and your inner
wisdom allows you to find peace with your decisions and
with your self. Life can be challenging, but we carry powerful
tools within us. This CD shows you how to access them.
Guided imagery has been used for many years to help people
prepare for surgery and other medical procedures, as well
as for healing physical and emotional issues.
Dr. Robin’s CD “Transforming Cancer Surgery” is
used at Beth Israel Medical Center in New York, which is
currently using it in a research study, and also in various
private offices to help people prepare for cancer surgery.
Her other CDs include “Restful Sleep, Healing Sleep” a
guided CD to help you sleep and improve the quality of your
sleep, and “Four Steps to Center” an introduction
to meditation and using guided meditation for healing.

"Listening
to the CD today, I feel safe and comfortable with myself and
with the choices I made and
in the same sense, I feel free. I think that I held onto the
bad feelings that I had about my choices... I feel each time
I listen to this CD I get more comfortable with my feelings
and myself. For a long time I was hurting a lot… It has
been a month since I listened to the CD. A lot has changed in
my life. The first and foremost thing is my confidence, my outlook
on things. I haven’t had a (bad) dream since and even
my attitude has changed. I think that my choice had me feeling
guilty, and feeling down on myself, but now I hold my head up
high and I’m enjoying my life with my two daughters that
I have…” Cindy
