Indigo Ocean Dreams Audio CD Endorsements

  • I bought Indigo Ocean Dreams for my 10 year old daughter who has terrible trouble getting to sleep at night. She would still be awake at midnight some nights and be very ratty in the morning due to lack of sleep. The first night I used this CD, she went to bed at 8pm and was asleep by 8.35pm; An absolute miracle for her. She woke up the next day brighter and happier than I can remember. Have been using for nearly a week now and the change in her sleeping habits is fantastic. I have also been using it for my 7 year old son as he also wanted to have his CD player on at night, he does not have sleep problems but is a very active and excitable child and it seems to have calmed him down a bit. Overall a great product and I will definitely be trying the other CDs in the series.

  • My son absolutely loves Ms Lite’s Indigo Dreams CD. Many children with Autism Spectrum Disorders have a hard time adjusting to changes, so it took a LONG time for me to convince my son to try Indigo Ocean Dreams CD. He loves that one now, too. The sounds and stories are so relaxing, it is much easier for him to relax and fall asleep with them. I would definitely recommend both of these CDs and books to any parent whose child has a hard time relaxing and falling asleep.

  • I have an eight year old daughter with serious anxiety problems. I bought this CD because my daughter’s therapist recommended getting a relaxation CD to listen to. I searched for a children’s version and found this one. My daughter loves it! It helps her to go to sleep. It helps her feel better when she is having a bad day. It helps calm her when she is mad or scared. She is using the techniques on her own when she is unable to listen to the CD or when she needs a quick calming down. It is very kid friendly, and teaches them, in an indirect way, how to calm themselves on their own. At the end of the stories, there is a quieting audio track that is just music and sounds that she really enjoys. I would highly recommend this product for anyone who is looking to teach their child self calming techniques. It is awesome!

  • Indigo Ocean Dreams is a miracle. I have a four year old and a six year old who have a very difficult time falling asleep and allowing themselves to relax. It is a struggle every night. If I didn’t see this for myself, I would have never believed it. Within ten minutes, both of my children were fast asleep.

  • My son is 10 and has ADD. Needless to say going to sleep at night has always been a battle. Up and down, I need water, etc…. His therapist recommended buying him a meditation CD. I came to this website and took a chance on this CD, it has been amazing. He can’t go a night without it now, he needs Indigo Ocean Dreams to help fall asleep. He does all the exercises and is usually asleep by track 3. Wonderful product, even for a 10 year old boy!

  • I rely on these reviews to buy so I know how important they are. I bought the CD because my 8 year daughter old has been suffering from “tummy aches” and panic attacks at night. She really enjoyed the stories. The guided meditations helped calm her down. My 5 year old son just enjoyed listening to the bedtime type stories as he drifted off to sleep. He requests to listen to it several nights a week and doesn’t seem to get sick of it.

  • I bought Indigo Ocean Dreams for my son a couple of years ago. My son, who is now almost 7, suffers from ADHD and Anxiety, and the anger and frustration that go with it. He STILL listens to this CD at bedtime at least 3 times a week. He LOVES IT! In his words, “It is soothing. I really like Bubble Riding because it is fun and I can imagine floating along in colorful bubbles.” I personally like Angry Octopus, as this one has really helped him control his anger and realize that he is not the only one who gets quickly angered. This CD gave him a fun and easy method to calm down and relax. Thank you so much!

  • I am an Early Childhood professional and bought Indigo Ocean Dreams for the teachers I train to use at nap time. I first tried it out on my 10 year old son who had been having a lot of trouble sleeping since his father died. Two nights in a row he fell asleep within 10 minutes. Even my teenage daughter found the CD relaxing. I can not wait to introduce it to the teachers and parents I work with! Please make more!

  • My 7 year old daughter was having an extremely hard time dealing with the stress in her life and having significant behavior problems. Indigo Ocean Dreams has taught her ways to tune into her body and relieve some stress through deep breathing, relaxation techniques, and affirmations. There is not a night since we got it that she doesn’t sleep with it playing. Most of the behavior issues have now resolved. Now she chooses what story she wants to hear and quickly drifts off to sleep. She used to have frequent nightmares and they are gone! This is an absolute MUST TRY!!!

  • I would highly recommend this Indigo Ocean Dreams for mental health workers who have children on their caseload. Finding resources for children are very difficult so I was very happy to locate this product. I have been working with several children experiencing anger management and anxiety problems and they really enjoy Indigo Ocean Dreams. Also, their parents benefit from the techniques and the time spent with their children practicing the techniques.

  • My neighbor’s 10 yr old daughter is very anxious. I suggested Indigo Ocean Dreams CD a while ago but her mother didn’t buy it. Finally, after they had yet another sleepless night due to some bad night terrors, I walked down and physically handed one of our CDs to them so they would try it. She said her daughter loves them and zonks right out. I never did hear if they have “cured” her of the night terrors and anxiety but I do know they bought their own copies the next day!

  • I have been using Indigo Ocean Dreams to help soothe my active grandchildren to sleep. They both love the ocean theme and take turns pretending to be the sea child, angry octopus, sea otter, turtle or even the hermit crab. I listen with them and the relaxation techniques work for me as well. All three of us have a deeper more relaxed sleep the nights we listen. I just ordered Bubble Riding and Angry Octopus. I can not wait for them to see the characters we have imagined come to life on paper in a book.

  • Indigo Ocean Dreams is a great CD for all kids. The man’s voice is so wonderful and the background music is beautiful. The stories are great because most kids love animals. I highly recommend it for those with more spirited children as well. Use the Angry Octopus when the feelings are strong and it really helps. We use it at night before bed.

  • I got Indigo Ocean Dreams for my 9 yr old to help him get to sleep on school nights when he claimed he wasn’t tired. It worked like a charm. Every night he would try to stay awake to hear it to the end. Two months later he is still trying to hear the end. I also have Indigo Dreams for my 5yr old. When he went to his first sleep-over I sent it with him just in case he started feeling scared at bed time. The friend’s mother said he didn’t need it but listened to it herself and loved it and asked where I got it. She had a 10 yr old who was having trouble the night before she had a test. I offered her Indigo Ocean Dreams for a few days. When she returned it, she informed me that she had purchased both CDs for her kids. Keep up the great work. Highly recommended.

  • Indigo Ocean Dreams has been an important tool in teaching my eight year old affirmations. If you believe that your thoughts become your reality, you know that it’s never too early to tell yourself how special you are! I am a Montessori teacher and I use the techniques and stories with the children. The CD has brought the children an interesting self-awareness. I am very happy with both Indigo Ocean Dreams and Indigo Dreams.

  • Our four children; age range of 5 to 12 years, love the Indigo Ocean Dreams CD. The stories and the relaxing music at the end are fantastic. We have everything from a stressed out “tween” to a hyper 5 year old, and they feel that the music combined with the relaxing voice of the stories really help them. We give this information a 5* rating, we love it as a family of 6.

  • Both CD’s are a wonderful experience for a child as well as an adult. My six year old loves listening to them at bedtime with her father. They are a great way to teach your child self awareness, assist them in focusing and visualization as well as relaxation. A must for anyone with children!
    – V. Lagoudis
  • My 8 year old son & I really enjoyed Indigo Ocean Dreams & its visualization exercises. We will definitely be using this in addition to his Occupational Therapy that he receives. I have been able to share it with other as well!! Great audio quality & value!

  • I love this CD! I purchased both the Indigo Dreams as well as the Indigo Ocean Dreams together and we absolutely love both of them! My children (3 boys in the same room) ask for the CD every night. We even will listen to them together just before bedtime on the couch for some down time. They love to lay still with their blankets and I watch their tummies go up and down as they automatically follow the breathing pattern within the stories. The music and voice of the reader are very soothing and within 2 stories my kids are asleep! I love the messages that are being told within the stories – they teach how to relax, have confidence and help relieve the stress of the day. I am so, so happy I have found these CDs! I would recommend them to EVERYONE!

  • I’ve ordered and listened to both your Indigo Dreams CDs with my 6 1/2 year old daughter and they’re fantastic. I am also recommending them to my clients. I am considering purchasing the curriculum and using it to educate children in the area on stress management and relaxation very exciting and much needed. I would promote Lori Lite’s resources through the group to the parents.

  • I have received Indigo Ocean Dreams and my kids love it! It is really helping my son Daniel (nearly 8) deal with expressing emotions and my daughter Emily (just 6) loves anything to do with dolphins and water so she is in meditation heaven.

  • The Indigo Dreams Series is exceptional: The writing is delightful, the narration gentle and soothing, the music is dreamy and non-intrusive, and the relaxation techniques effective (even on a kid in her 5th decade of life!) Because I create guided meditation CDs for adults, I am extremely familiar with what is in the marketplace. More often than not I’m disappointed, but I’m happy to say that Indigo Ocean Dreams delighted me. Not only does this CD help the listener to relax, it gently addresses some of the issues that can cause stress; anger, anxiety, poor self esteem, etc., helping kids to find constructive ways to have more calm in their waking life as well.

  • Lori Lite hit another home run with her second CD, Indigo Ocean Dreams. My 11 year old had experienced an increase in anger towards the end of his school year. My 9 year old is dealing with fear and anxiety due to a recent challenging family event. The first night of listening was a great experience for my daughter. She learned new self-calming techniques and was walking around the house the next day practicing her sea otter breathing (belly breathing). My son learned how to release his anger and loved the Angry Octopus story. I listened to the CD after both kids were asleep and I was amazed at how relaxed I, as an adult felt. I felt calm, peaceful and happy. I actually can not remember when I fell asleep. I just know that I had the best sleep I’ve had in months. The techniques of breathing, affirmations, muscle relaxation and visualizations presented in these stories are working for my kids.

  • I have in the past tried to show my kids some of these same techniques (deep breathing and meditation) but it was hard for me to put it in a way that would be meaningful to them at their age. These CDs were the answer. They are written and produced with children in mind. Lori Lite’s idea of using stories is a brilliant way of making these techniques appealing to children! If you are already familiar with Lori Lite’s work you certainly won’t be disappointed with Indigo Ocean Dreams. If you are presently unfamiliar with her work but are looking for a wonderful way to introduce your children to deep breathing, affirmations and relaxation techniques, this CD and the first Indigo Dreams CD is sure to be a welcome guest in your home!

  • Lori Lite has created a series of great work that has made an important difference in the attitude and behavior of my 14 year old son who has been suffering from OCD for the last 2 years. The change in him has been more dramatic than all the different medications he has been on! I wish I had the Indigo Dreams Series 2 years ago! A must for any child and parent!
    – R. Bower
  • Indigo Ocean Dreams CD has been a wonderful boon for my children, especially my 8 year old daughter who has suffered from nightmares and had trouble going to sleep. The tracks are very calming and age appropriate, the imagery is fun and supports positive self esteem and connection with others. I would recommend this to any parent as a wonderful reinforcer of positive feelings when your child is relaxing or preparing for bed. Beautifully done!

  • I hope to put into words how transformational Indigo Ocean Dreams is. My 8 year old son has a lot of anxiety due in part to his reading disability. So whenever I introduce a new concept to him (home charter school), he immediately thinks he can’t do it, he gets extremely frustrated, and gives up before even trying. I set up his CD player with headphones, and explained to my son that during school, I will set aside time whenever needed for relaxation station. He was excited to try it out. So on the first day of school, he got overwhelmed with his phonics lesson. So shortly after, off he went to relaxation station. He was sitting up on the cushion, against the pillows. Literally, ten minutes later, he was nestled in, and sound asleep. He LOVES “The Angry Octopus”. That is his favorite. He says that he uses his imagination to see the story. When the octopus is angry, he feels angry too. And when the octopus breathes to calm himself, he does it too. He sees colors and the characters and the environment. He loves the sounds of the ocean. He says that it relaxes him and makes him feel good. Since using relaxation station on an as needed basis, my son no longer has the outbursts as I described earlier. He still gets frustrated from time to time, but now he is becoming an eager learner! He is progressing in school like never before! There are still challenges, but this CD helped remove one of the barriers, which was anger/frustration. Awesome! I have recommended this to elementary teachers, special education teachers, and physical and occupational therapists. I have recommended it to moms of kids who are perfectionists or have anxiety or anger issues or are highly sensitive. I am so glad I found this product. Even my skeptical husband admitted to its success. :) My 6 year old daughter also enjoys this CD. She especially likes the breathing exercises. Although she does not share the same challenges as her brother, she still does benefit from the stories. I would highly recommend this to parents, teachers, therapists, and specialists who work with children.
