"I'm hooked"
I am not by any means a video-game player and I am the person who has to ask her IT department to help her with pretty much every computer task. That said, a store in my city had The Journey out to try so I thought I'd give it a whirl. I'm totally hooked!

The graphics and music alone are beautiful and I have found the practices that I learned and continue to learn really helpful in my day to day life. It was very easy to load up (trust me, I asked lots of questions at the store just to make sure I'd be able to do it) and I can't get enough.

I'm definitely considering giving this to some family members for the holidays. The benefits really have effected my lifestyle and I would love to share that with others.

"Want MORE stress in your life? Look no further!!"
All the good points this product has to offer can rarely be experienced because of the problems with the sensors. (That is the blue bio-feedback device that attaches to your fingers.) I had this product and used it on and off for months and finally quit due to how stressed I would get every time the sensors stopped sensing my heart beat or just wouldn't take in the signals. It wasn't a once in a while thing either, it happened ALL the time. When the sensors don't work, you have to do alot of adjusting not only on your hand, but on the screen as well and sometimes THAT doesn't even work so they suggest that you put lotion on your fingers (but not too much or problems will get worse), or to rub your hands together to warm them up, or to breath heavily... in other words they have an entire page online devoted to problems with the sensors and have all these 'tricks' to make the thing finally work which means they don't EXPECT you to be getting a working product here. The main issue with this game according to the forum on the boards regarding this product is the sensor issue. It got to the point where even the thought of playing the game became stressful for me because I started to automatically link this game to spending forever fixing a problem. And when it was working fine I was stressed because I knew that at any second the problem could start again and I'd have to stop the game.
If they ever get a chance to fix that it'll be a great addition to your meditation practice as it gives you the chance to see the results of your sessions immediately. Until then this is just a waste of money.

"Infinite Possibilities to Make Money"
If there is one thing which most interferes with my sense of peace, relaxation and serenity, it is the wealthy practitioners of New Age self-help mumbo jumbo who take advantage of the vulnerable sheep who seek relief from their anxieties and feelings of emptiness. Just create a soundtrack with the mandatory cheezy strings and flute-whistles, mount that on a snazzy motif of floating orbs, otherworldly opulence, and flowing robes, throw in some pseudo high-tech wires and clamps which do nothing more than measure one's rate of heart-beat (which is in no way "biofeedback"), place that in an elegant upscale box, charge an upscale price, and you have created a package which will cater to all those non discriminating suckers as represented by the glowing and almost universally positive reviews found here. Another similar product which is even more costly and which I ordered and returned along with this one, says it all in small print on the box: "has no medical efficacy, and is to be considered as entertainment." But if this kind of "entertainment" reinforces your oblivious sense of accomplishment, just send in your big bucks to the New Age dudes in their big houses who sit around and conjure up even more "infinite possibilities" of developing their "full potential" to make even more money. I recommend a good book on meditation, and actually sitting down and doing it.

"Ok, So I am an old "flower child from the 60's"
I used biofeedback to center myself years ago and was trying to explain it to my grandchildren. I bought this "Journey To The Wild Divine" to practice 1 hour a day and work with my grandkids as often as possible. They already know Grandma is not your usual grandma so they have come to expect just about anything. What I have noticed they learn very fast how to center themselves and apply the things they are learning in regular life situations. They are leaning how to focus their energy quickly. I think this will keep us busy for a long time to come. The music and graphics interesting. No violence. Just love and peace! There are guides in game who help you find your way in case you wonder and get lost. I am also going to buy the meditation for children. They are just natural at it if they have someone to guide them. So glad I found this.

"positive-ism as shallow as it gets. "
what i found wrong with this game is what i find wrong with the whole gutless love love, i embrace the god within you on the surface movement that is really a corporate marketing ploy to ensnare all those tripped out and fried into buying something "hip" before the kava kava wears off and they become born again christians. and what is up with the wig on the royal falconer? did deepak kill santa? no problems with install, was even able to play with one arm in a cast.
