"This is perhaps the best of Dr. Jeffrey Thompson CDs. I find it better than the Theta Meditation System by the same author. I have the 2 CD set and all four tracks are pretty good for meditation. I do get into a deep state of awareness by listening to just one 30 min track from either CD. I do not listen to it more than once a week.
If you are new to meditation and have never meditated before, I suggest you try the Alpha Relaxation System ot Theta Meditation System or something else first that is lighter as the Gamma Meditation can be overwhelming for inexperienced meditators and could even have a negative effect."
Meditate like Tibetan Monks

"This is like LSD on CD. Listen to this CD, close your eyes and, let your mind/perception open. I have been meditating for a while and I was happy with my results. However, after I started using this system I am now able to identify and lock on to perceiving reality through gamma waves. The more I listen to this CD the more I notice my consciouness beggining to include more gamma waves while awake. I highly reccomend that you buy these CD's. If you want to meditate like a tibetan monk in a fraction of the time then try these out!"
Maybe Too "Advanced" For My Brain

"I purchased this 2-disc set after thoroughly enjoying Awakened Mind System 2.0. If you are interested in these discs you probably already know about the technology and Dr. Thompson's other work, so I won't discuss that here.
I was a bit concerned by some of the reviews describing the music as creepy or sinister, especially since the music on AMS 2.0 seemed anything but. Gladly, though I can agree the must on these CDs seems at times dark and mysterious, I don't have a problem with it, and any reservations I had disappeared quickly.
The first few times I listened to CD1 (the green disc), it gave me a headache. I chalked that up as my mind not being totally ready to "entrain" at the GAMMA or HYPER GAMMA levels. It's also possible that my overall state of mind at the time was getting in the way, as my mood was severely lowered because my father passed away. I had also noticed decreased effect from using the AMS disc. After the first few listenings, the headaches went away and I'm listening to AMS or GAMMA almost daily, sometimes back to back starting with AMS. I find these cds to help greatly with relaxation and stress reductions and plan soon to combine them as background for my own self-recorded guided meditations. I think this set is a very useful tool for meditation and overall wellbeing."
EXCELLENT~

"I used the Monroe Institute Odyssey tapes years ago, cost me hundreds of dollars back then, then I find this Gamma set by Dr. Jeffrey Thompson for a fraction of the cost...and this product is far superior than any of the other systems I have tried. I think Monroe Institute and some others are so overpriced to the point of shameless greed. These tapes, by Dr.Jeffrey Thompson deliver what they promise without ripping you off, the prices are so affordable and reasonable...but I would also say these tapes are for serious and experienced meditators or those who have experienced altered states, expanded states of consciousness before and know how to use these tapes as a tool. These tapes are not for beginners."
