“Get seated in a comfortable chair or position. Now close your eyes. Let the concerns and worries of the coming day dissipate from your mind. This is God’s time and you want to focus all you attention on him,” begins the opening dialogue found in each session of 8 biblically-based meditations of CD entitled, “Christian Meditation and Relaxation.
Jones discovered the benefits of meditation eight years ago, after a severe bout with depression. The devout Christian and petite divorced mother of three said that she was filled with so much pain that it negatively impacted every area of her life. Like many other Christians, Jones struggled with making the promises of God a reality in her life. After many years of suffering, counseling, and pleading with God for deliverance, Jones found her answer in Christian meditation and relaxation techniques.
Jones believes she is not the only person who has been crippled by these kinds of toxic emotions and uncontrollable thoughts. She likes to use the analogy of a song you hear but just can’t stop playing in your mind. “You might even hate the song and you tell yourself, “okay that’s enough,” but within minutes the song is back,” she said.
So, in an effort to help others release negative thoughts, while simultaneously internalizing the truths of God’s word, “Christian Meditation and Relaxation” was created. The three set of 80 minute CD’s are a mixture of Jones’ soothing voice over angelic and almost tranquilizing music. The CDs give you step-by-step relaxation instructions while at the same time immersing you in scripture and biblical affirmations.

Jones also debunks the myth that meditation is contrary to God’s Word by creating an overview that provides relevant scriptures and an accurate definition of meditating, as well as its benefits.

I believe that is was during times of meditation that the disciples and prophets of old received many of their visions and revelations from God. Our greatest inspirations and truths come during times of quietness, stillness, openness, and reflection- all components of meditation.”
The upcoming release is her first volume that includes: An Overview to Christian Meditation, three meditations titled: Taking Control of your Thought Life; Morning Devotion; and Faith in God for Success and Prosperity; and lastly, An Invitation to Salvation. Volumes Two and Three in the series will be release soon and include additional meditations titled Overcoming Restlessness; Interceding for Loved Ones; Eliminating Stress and Toxic Emotions; and Time Out that encourages believers to turn to Christ to fight their battles.
She further admonishes listeners not to substitute meditation for other more traditional methods of communicating with God. “The meditation series is not meant to replace prayer and study,” said Jones. “It’s meant to enhance it by making it more fruitful-- because the more we can clear out minds from all the clutter of the world-- the more we can embrace real truth.”
The cost for each CD is $14.95 and can be purchased by visiting www.thechristianmeditator.com.
