Personal development is becoming more and more popular. If that term were used 10 years ago, not many would know the meaning. Anyways, personal development mp3s are becoming the new craze because they are so practical and easy and anyone can listen to them. If you are serious about personal development you need an Ipod. Why? Because it's portable, and organized.

There are other mp3 players out there, but I find Ipod easy to use and setup. I setup play lists for each item I wish to accomplish, for example, a weight loss list, overcoming procrastination, being present, etc. This way I can concentrate on one item at a time.

I listen to these mp3s whenever I get the chance. Right before bed I use listen to a relaxing type like hypnosis, or something else quiet and that doesn't require a lot of thought or concentration. This helps me relax and fall asleep easily. I usually setup a play list that last only 2-3 mp3s. That way it will just turn itself off when it's done and I don't waste the batteries.

When purchasing my Ipod, I decided to get the video one. I think it's worth the difference in price. I've downloaded Oprah's web casts that she recorded with Eckhart Tolle on his book "A New Earth." I usually watch them when I am in a waiting room of some sort, or as a passenger in a vehicle on a long trip.

When I went in labor with my last baby, I had setup other movies on it for my husband. He was so happy to have it. He watched it while patiently waiting for the little bambino to come out and afterwards as well, while we were waiting to be discharged. It was great.

Another great time when it was convenient was when I had car trouble and had to wait hours for rescuing in the middle of no where. I was able to watch Oprah and Eckhart chat it up. It could have been a terrible experience, but turned out to be a nice quiet time for mewhich isn't often.

Driving to and from work proved to be another good time to slow my mind and relax. If you are like me, my drive home from work used to consist of going over what I did, and trying to organize my time for the next morning. When I went to sleep at night, all I could think about was work. I wanted it to end and I wanted to help make myself a better person.

Before my personal development days, it would take me at least an hour, if not two to get to sleep at night. My mind was always racing; usually about work. When I did fall asleep, I would dream about work. First thing in the morning, when I wake upI thought about work. I kept thinking "STOP, STOP, I have more important things to think about."

Now, it only takes me about 10 minutes to fall asleep. That's hit the pillow, relax, and sleep. I love it. I don't dream about work anymore and I have a much better sleep. Listening to mp3s before bed has really changed my life.
