Sacramento, CA (1888PressRelease)
June 20, 2007 - Many Christians struggle with worry, anxiety and fear. Negative thoughts steal their peace of mind and busyness prevents them from spending quality time with God? Could Christian meditation be the answer? Many Christians are saying "yes!"
Rhonda Jones, founder of Serenity Enterprises in Sacramento, has produced a series of faith-based meditation CDs designed to help Christians find peace of mind, relaxation, and spend more quality time with God.
The Christian meditation and relaxation CDs are full of uplifting Biblical scriptures, positive spiritual messages and instructions on how to meditate and relax. Each of the eight sessions in the four-volume series are 20-minutes long, set to easy-listening music and narrated by the soothing voice of Ms. Jones.
"The Bible encourages us to meditate," says Ms. Jones, a devout Christian, former elementary school teacher and mother of three. "When we dwell in the presence of God, worry and anxiety have to leave." One of many scriptures that support meditation is Joshua 1:8 that states, "...meditate on God's word day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful."
Ms. Jones produced the Christian meditation CDs after overcoming five years of deep depression over a failed relationship. The breakup left her full of anxiety and she was constantly tormented with negative and self-destructive thoughts. "I was filled with so much pain and regret that it was difficult for me to get through each day," she said.
It was meditation and the teachings of the Bible that lifted Ms. Jones out of her depression and restored her peace of mind. She was later inspired to produce the Christian meditation recordings. "I felt that if I could incorporate deep breathing, relaxation and the scriptures all together, I could help other people find relief," she said.
Ms. Jones stresses that her Christian meditation recordings were not produced to take the place of prayer and study. They were produced to enhance it. "The more we can clear our minds from all the clutter of the world," she says, "the more we can embrace God's truth. If you're not controlling your thoughts, it's most likely that they are controlling you." Jones encourages Christian counselors to use the CDs as a supplement with their patients' treatment plans.
They are also a great gift for anyone because all Christians can benefit from a regularity of total relaxation.
Meditation titles include "Taking Control of your Thoughts", "Morning Devotion," "Eliminating Stress and Toxic Emotions", "Divine Delay," "Overcoming Restlessness," "The Battle is the Lords," "Interceding for Loved Ones," and "Faith in God for Success and Prosperity."
This is what some had to say about their experiences with the CD's:
"I gained an incredible rest of my mind, obtained inner peace, and pay attention to what I am thinking of. I live less attached to the negativity of the world and find my life more at one with God and feel the center of being awakened. The spiritual verses are powerful in audio because since I hear the CD over and over, the verses remain in my mind and I find myself thinking of the word more than ever before."- Jessica Hernandez
"Rhonda, I have come to love the calmness of your voice combined with the power of the scriptures and positive words that you offer on the CD. You have been blessed and your CDs are a blessing to the Universe."- Valder Beebe, CEO and Host of Valder Beebe Show, www.valderbeebeshow
