Very simple, exquisitely relaxing music for use with the actively dying. I have seen this work well for improving breathlessness and restlessness.

I thought I would use it only for some of the Hospice patients I see but I tried it a few times with my massage clients and they really liked how it had a calming effect on them. If you like Harp music then this is the CD for you.

Ordered it on Mon 12/18/06 from CD Baby. Received it on Tue 12/19/06. My mother passed away early morning Thur 12/21/06.
This CD is perfect and I appreciate the simplicity and sensitivity of the harp music. It is soothing for both the dying AND the living left behind.
