Product Reviews of The Journey to Wild Divine Biofeedback Software & Hardware for PC & Mac: The PassageProduct Review: An Antidote To Stress In A High Tech World Summary: 5 Stars
The graphics are beautiful in a way that helps you conjure up your own real life experiences amongst nature. The music soundtrack is soothing in a way that is not boring. The interaction with the biofeddback mechanism is ergonomic for virtually everyone.
I spend most of my work day with my hair on fire. Typically, I go from meeting to crisis to meeting without taking a breath. Totally unhealthy. Even if you don't care to know the physiology behind the stress, you do know how you feel at the end of the day when you have to go home and wring the toxins out of your system. Not good!
When I can infuse my Journey into the work day it is the only part of the day that I can take care of me, and regain some sense of balance. The Journey helps me become that much more productive and sane.
I've been using the Journey for over a year and it has opened me up to a whole new world. Although this may sound like a paid endorsement, I think that if the Journey was a required medical protocol, we would decrease healthcare costs and allow people to flourish in unexpected ways.
You won't be disappointed!
Product Review: An amazing use of technology for all ages Summary: 5 Stars
I am incredibly enthusiastic about the Journey to Wild Divine! I am not a computer games person at all, but this experience is totally absorbing and a wonderful way to learn for all ages.
I have been using this product for over a month and have advanced my ability to concentrate and focus. I am able to use my breathing and mental processes to relax, steady my inner state, lift my energy level, or achieve peacefulness. In so doing, as I journey through the landscape visiting cottages, gardens, and temples, I am able to open doors, juggle balls, levitate golden orbs, or release a falcon from a cage, etc.
I am a retired psychotherapist and have experienced many therapies that did not quite live up to the hype. This use of biofeedback is engaging and a great technology to use in working with stress reduction and mind-body-spirit integration.
One of my most wonderful recent experiences was an afternoon with my son and grandson. After demonstrating a bit of the game, I invited my 4 1/2 year old grandson to put on the sensors and try it out. We helped him put the sensors on his tiny fingers and for the next hour, with my son and daughter in law looking on, he was embarked upon the journey.
With only a bit of prompting from me, this child focused and concentrated on juggling the balls, spinning the pinwheel, starting a fire in a fireplace, and balancing a stack of rocks on top of each other. In each activity he was eagerly using only his thoughts and/or breathing to accomplish these feats. What a thrilling sense of accomplishment. And yet when he could not do one of the activities, he could accept that coming back later after he had practiced more of the skills, was part of the process. No sense of frustration or defeat.
He is a very imaginative and active child. However, he sat for over an hour, amazingly engaged in a computer experience that involved no violence or fast action. He happily, and with his own initiave, began to learn about how to relax and yet control his thoughts and body. Wow! What a gift it is to all ages.
The technology and thoughtfulness that has gone into this process is worth the price of admission! Thank you Wild Divine Project.
Product Review: Astonishing Summary: 5 Stars
I read where the Mac Review critic had said this is "the most thoroughly conceived product" he had ever seen. And the first time I plugged in, I was astonished. The visuals are magical and the technology is amazing. This "game" will change peoples lives. And every parent/grandparent who has a child or grandchild buried in video game hell should give this to their kids ~ it is the antithesis of Grand Theft Auto.
Product Review: Basically LOVE IT! Summary: 5 Stars
We play this game because:
*It's visuals are stunning - WOW!
*It is fun to learn the different breathing and meditation techniques.
*It's amazing to watch yourself develop the ability to calm or activate your energy in a very short period of time.
BASICALLY - WE LOVE IT!
We do not have the time or the inclination to play computer games but this is not like playing a computer game. It is an experience that moves you because it is so beautiful to watch, to listen to and to learn from. If only all computer game were this satisfying.
Product Review: Best meditation assistant I've ever owned Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this product because I had a dr. accuse me of being anxious and depressed. While I would agree I suffer from white coat anxiety, I didn't agree with the dr. otherwise. I figured, though, that if the dr was right, a biofeedback game would be the perfect help. I had wanted to try Journey, anyway, and this gave me an excellent excuse to buy it. I bought it for myself for Christmas. I have probably spent hundreds of dollars on meditation tapes, meditation books, classes - you name it, I've tried it. I do an excellent job of falling asleep using any of them. Journey to the Wild has been wonderful for me. I am finally experiencing the powerful benefits of meditation without falling asleep. I am given different experiences to entice me to keep trying, keep going - and stay awake. I am sustaining a feeling of happiness and life satisfaction. The only negative would be coming from my husband. He thinks I'm hogging the computer now. I've started timing myself so that I don't stay on too long. Who would have ever thought that a person who has found no computer games she liked previously would have to time herself so that she doesn't become so wrapped up she does nothing else? If you are looking for an adventure game, you won't like this. If you are looking for a meditation assistant, I think you'll love it.
