This recording has been praised by a number of authors:

"Alber has written a modern apocalypse set to a shimmering score. A strongly argued religious lyric that boldly takes on world-history, interpreting the past and predicting the future."

John Lardas, Ph.D., Author of The Bop Apocalypse: The Religious Visions of Kerouac, Ginsberg, and Burroughs

"An epic poem of cosmology, the history of the earth, man, and civilization. It is ambitious, intelligent, poetic, and beautiful, on par with such epics as Octavio Paz’s Sunstone and T.S. Eliot’s The Wasteland. A bright light on the poetry horizon."

Ralph Haselmann Jr., Lucid Moon Poetry Magazine

"Dave Alber’s To the Dawn is a tour de force in dramatic, robust poetry. The background music and the power of narrative pour forth, in part imagistic, part stream of consciousness, gathering to create a single effect—a way into timeless conflicts in the human drama; an original blend of history, philosophy, myth and poetry."

Dennis Patrick Slattery, Ph.D., Author of Casting the Shadows: Selected Poems and Just Below the Water Line

Voice Over & Hypnotic Voice Narration for The Rhythm of Health healthcare program

The Rhythm of Health material is nine hours of audio content; three Handbooks; and one State Journal.

(Please do not listen to this hypnotic recording while driving a car or doing anything requiring concentration. Only listen to this recording in a safe and comfortable environment.)

Module 1: Trance Training: Training the Mind to Heal the Body. See on Amazon.

Module 2: Relaxation Training: Training the Body to Optimal Health. See on Amazon.

Module 3: Post-Traumatic Stress Education: Essential Knowledge to Maximize Healing and Speed Recovery See on Amazon.

The voice modulation in this program is based on the work of the hypnotherapist Dr. Milton Erickson.

A key concept is to associate different vocal inflections with different stages of the hypnotic trance process. For example, vocal inflections are in a rapid conversational style for the "state" of normal waking consciousness. The vocal inflection slows down during the trance induction process. And during the "deep trance state" the vocal inflection is extremely slow and somewhat gravelly.

The intent is for the listener to associate "states of awareness" and particularly the "trance state" with vocal inflections. This way, positive relaxed trance states are "triggered" by vocal inflections through basic Pavlovian conditioning.

The listener is, thus, encouraged to go into a profoundly relaxed healing trance state, not only by the spoken words... but by the vocal inflections themselves.

The audio content teaches relaxation exercises, trance training, and healing processes through instruction, exercises, storytelling, and guided visualizations, amongst other techniques.

These recordings have been highly praised:

"In The Rhythm of Health, David Alber has presented an innovative program for treating PTSD. This is extremely well thought through with modules, a workbook, and a journal. It is multi-modal, utilizing self-hypnosis, relaxation training, visualization exercises, archetypal imagery, social support groups, bodywork, and cognitive-behavioral therapy. It includes innovations, such as the retelling of fables and myths, and the reframing of life experiences. I admire its comprehensive nature because each case of PTSD is different and there is no "one size fits all" treatment. However, it is cost effective and many of its approaches are in alignment with those recommended by The Department of Veterans' Affairs. The number of untreated traumatized people is staggering, and poses potential problems for society as a whole. It is my fervent hope that his program will receive the attention and application it deserves."

Stanley Krippner, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology, Saybrook University, Co-author, Haunted by Combat: Understanding PTSD in War Veterans

"A Breath of Relief! Having studied extensively alongside David Alber, the author of The Rhythm of Health, I can certainly attest to the veracity of his education. When attempting to navigate through the murky waters of post-traumatic stress it is imperative that one have a proper "view" to steer the way. And, when we are in a rough patch of water it is essential to have a guide. The "view" that David is endowed with is sure to lend the participant proper direction, including the ability to steer one's own way through the normal ups and downs of life unencumbered by the crippling anxiety of PTSD."
