Customer Reviews of The Journey to Wild Divine Biofeedback Software & Hardware for PC & Mac: The Passage
Customer Review: Loving it!
Summary: 5 Stars
I found this game at Whole Foods, of all places. I'd heard about these sorts of games but didn't know they were available mainstream. Found it just in time for Christmas!
I'd read the other reviews so I did have some concerns. I'm running Windows Vista, but the install process went as smooth as could be, and quick.
I've had absolutely no problem with signal transmission through the rings. Minor repositioning here and there, and I like to check the "system" option on the menu to make sure it's optimal.
I've only been playing 3 days now, but I'm noticing how much easier some of the exercises are getting; however some are easier or harder depending on the day, which makes sense.
This game is great for me. I know the benefits of meditation, but I tend not to do them without someone leading me through; my impatience and busyness take over. This gives me motivation through the game aspect to keep me going on my own, as well as the visual feedback that helps me know I really am affecting myself. I am loving the Chakra visualizations!
At this point the only thing more I could wish for is a few more options on the start menu, such as a volume adjustment. Navigating around through the start area can be a little confusing at first, the map isn't ideal, but there are links to home-made ones in the forum as well.
Enough gush, I'm going back to my game!
Customer Review: Best meditation assistant I've ever owned
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this product because I had a dr. accuse me of being anxious and depressed. While I would agree I suffer from white coat anxiety, I didn't agree with the dr. otherwise. I figured, though, that if the dr was right, a biofeedback game would be the perfect help. I had wanted to try Journey, anyway, and this gave me an excellent excuse to buy it. I bought it for myself for Christmas. I have probably spent hundreds of dollars on meditation tapes, meditation books, classes - you name it, I've tried it. I do an excellent job of falling asleep using any of them. Journey to the Wild has been wonderful for me. I am finally experiencing the powerful benefits of meditation without falling asleep. I am given different experiences to entice me to keep trying, keep going - and stay awake. I am sustaining a feeling of happiness and life satisfaction. The only negative would be coming from my husband. He thinks I'm hogging the computer now. I've started timing myself so that I don't stay on too long. Who would have ever thought that a person who has found no computer games she liked previously would have to time herself so that she doesn't become so wrapped up she does nothing else? If you are looking for an adventure game, you won't like this. If you are looking for a meditation assistant, I think you'll love it.Customer Review: incredible experience
Summary: 5 Stars
The Journey's price tag might raise an eyebrow. Why would you want to spend down so much money on a game? Because The Journey will most likely be one of the most innovative games you've ever played which will have remarkable and perceptible repercussions on your everyday life. The exercises and techniques that you will learn in The Journey will help you to reduce stress and anxiety in your life, and teach you to use your meditative mind to regulate your body's physiology for improved creativity and performance. Even after completing The Journey, I often find myself revisiting certain parts of the game to relax and calm down at the end of the day, and it's really effective. Think of this game as an investment. The next installment of the Wild Divine series won't require you to buy the hardware again, and there are already several enterprising fans of the game have already begun producing free applications to perform basic biofeedback graphing using the biofeedback equipment. I highly recommend this game to anyone - you owe it to yourself to give it a try, especially with the 30-day unconditional money back guarantee offered by the developers. If you do try it, you will find The Journey to be a fantastic voyage of self-discovery that offers an incredible sense of immersion and a learning experience you will never forget.Customer Review: Finally -- Turn Your Computer Into a Wellness Tool
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a very unique product that uses biofeedback on your computer to teach relaxation and breathing skills. The graphics are spectacular, and provide the basis for visualization training while you learn how to calm yourself, meditate and manage your physiology in order to reduce stress, make your heart healthier and improve your quality of life.
The game moves at a measured, calming pace. Users that are used to the frenetic, hyper pace of videogames will at first be frustrated by the pace. The first time I sat down to try it, I could do very little; after some practice, I can now experience much of the product, and I feel better in the process.
The navigation can be challenging at times, but there are a lot of resources (and free tech support) to help you find your way. Just go to the Wild Divine's web site and look around.
This product is not for everybody, particularly anyone who buys it expecting it to help them "hurry up and relax." But then again--who's ever heard of "hurrying up and relaxing"? If you really want to learn how to manage your heart, mind and body to help you live better/longer (or if you're into yoga or meditation), The Journey is a tool unlike any other that's out there right now.
Customer Review: AMAZING.... BEAUTIFUL....
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my first experience with Biofeedback, however, I am extremely interested in meditation and the mind/body connection and truly believe that our minds possess much more ability than we realize.
I just received "My Journey" and have been using it the past several days. I have to say this is truly an amazing experience. I really don't want to call it a game because it is so much more. The graphics are breathtaking and each scene brought tears to my eyes (granted... I am an extremely emotional person)! As I viewed each scene, I realized that they embraced what are my visions of "the other side." The scenes seem to actually come to life. Then, there is the music... so beautiful and soothing. A great accompaniment to a great and useful life tool.
I find myself looking forward to experiencing my journey every night. Then, when you participate in the meditation, breathing, or other exercises and realize what your mind and body are actually capable of doing, it is exhilerating. I highly recommend this program to anyone who is looking for answers... not sure if I will find all of them, but so far, I am optimistic!
