These CDs use two voices at once, sending one set of suggestions into each ear. The theory is that the mind will not be able to focus on two voices at once, allowing the affirmations to better get to the unconscious.

Paraliminal Pathways, a newly-founded women-run hypnosis CD recording company, is pleased to announce the launch of its first paraliminal CD set: Pathway to Prosperity. The set contains two CDs, one hypnotic paraliminal meditation session and one affirmations-based CD, both focused on implementing the Law of Attraction to create abundance (in the areas of love, friendship, satisfaction and gratitude as well as wealth) in one's life. Following on its heels, Paraliminal Pathways will release Pathway to Self Esteem and Pathway to Creativity. The company plans to release a total of 12 CD sets within the next two years. They will also create custom-made CDs -- by request and based on interviews -- to address the specific needs of some consumers.

Millions of Americans with chronic sinus problems are turning to an ancient therapy with spiritual and medicinal connections thanks to the Oprah Winfrey Show.

Oprah Creates Big Buzz For Neti Pots

Consumers are going crazy for "Neti Pots" thanks to a recent episode of the Oprah Winfrey Show. The practice of Neti is firmly rooted in natural medicine and spirituality, but until now this proven remedy has been left in the shadow of alternative medicine. A traditional neti pot looks very much like a Genie Lamp, but instead grants wishes of the sinus nature. Neti pots hail from India where they have been used to unclog infected sinuses for centuries. Known in Yoga circles as "Jala Neti", the term refers to an ancient cleansing technique that literally means, "water cleansing."
