'Forget sleep training and scary nanny 911 tactics, there's the most fantastic new relaxation and meditation CD available for kids, guaranteed to send them to the land of nod. Relax Kids, who has a range of CDs, books and affirmation cards to help children to cope with stress, develop confidence, self-esteem and concentration, have just released Enchanting Nature Meditation. These are guided visualiseations which start with breathing and take children to serene places in nature. We tested them on a nine year old girl and her exhausted mother, both of whom were asleep within ten minutes.'
Wave Magazine
'We've found the magic touch to help get your little ones straight off to the land of nod with no fuss or tears. The meditation CDs from the Relax Kids series will have them calm and sleepy in minutes as they imagine themselves swimming in the ocean like the Little Mermaid or climbing Jack's beanstalk. Mum Caroline road-tested Magical Meditations for Superheroes and says it has transformed bedtimes at her house, with her 3 year olds son, Sam getting to sleep faster and waking up far more refreshed (which can only mean more shut-eye for her, too!).'
Women's own magazine
'When it comes to bedtime stories, choose with care - nothing too exciting or scary. To help them stay in bed once you've got them there, I cannot recommend too highly the Relax Kids CDs by meditation teacher Marneta Viegas. There is one for Princesses and one for Superheroes. They work like a dream (so to speak) with my children.'
The Daily Telegraph
'Bedtime can be a nightmare when your kids are tired but won't do the decent thing and hit the pillow. Time, then, for Relax Kids - a series of meditation and visualisation CDs guaranteed to ease even the most un co-operative child into a more restful state. Meditation is often presented as a deadly serious, adult activity: the Relax Kids series offers its calming benefits to any child aged three.'
Time Out
'How much time do children devote to sitting still, without the aid of a television? 'It's crucial for everyone. You should do whatever you can to encourage an individual to wind down, return to normal heart rate and normal brain wave.'' says pediatric psychologist Nick Barlow. But getting a child to quieten down without the lure of a computer game or video can be tricky - which is why Marneta Viegas dreamt up Relax Kids, a series of books and CDs featuring fairy-tale meditations... Relax Kids is an effective way to lull overactive little minds to sleep.'
Scotland on Sunday
'Can't get your child to chill at the end of the day?
Then try a few drops of lavender essential oil on a tissue tucked into their pillowcase and put on a Relax Kids fairytale meditation CD at bedtime. Using favourite fairy stories for inspiration, the CDs take children on a journey of creative visualisation, designed to evoke feelings of comfort and inner quiet. They might imagine themselves swimming through the sea like a mermaid or flying through the air like Peter Pan.
An enchanting alternative to vegging in front of the TV. But don't just take our word for it - try them out yourselves.'
Healthy magazine - Holland and Barratt
'An essential addition to all children's bookshelves, this wonderful book (Aladdin's Magic Carpet), will take your child on many magical journeys to faraway lands where they become mermaids, princes, puppets, swans and more.
It'll take them to the Mad Hatter's tea party or to a treasure island, wherever they choose to be. Each of these stories is designed to encourage children's imagination and creativity.
Marneta has also produced a series of CDs to accompany the book. Each short story is read in her calm soothing voice, which gently carries you into fairytale dreamlands. This is the perfect Christmas present for girls who dream of being princesses, boys who wish they were pirates and any child (or adult) who sometimes needs a little chill-out time!'
The Green Parent

'Close your eyes, be very still and imagine you are... well it could be Mary Poppins, Goldlilocks or a dozen other fictional heroines. Marneta Viegas has devised these Fantasy fairytale meditations for princesses as part of the Relax Kids programme, which seeks to bring the benefits of relaxation, and freedom from anxiety to children coping with an increasingly stressful world. The synthesised music gently swirls and each four minute track on the CD invites listeners to explore the oceans with the Little Mermaid and embark on other calming adventures'
Times Educational Supplement
'While stress is well-documented among adults, there is increasing evidence to suggest that our children are also falling victim to the curse of modern society. Now a range of relaxation books and CDs has just been launched, aimed at helping children as young as three to relax. 'In a world dominated by technology and noise we aim to help children discover the beauty that lies within quietness' says founder Marneta Viegas.'
Liverpool Echo
'When asked to review this Relax Kids CD with the help of Zoe, my 11 year old, my initial reaction was that she wouldn't be interested and that it would be too young for her. Wow! How wrong could I be! It is a MUST buy- perfect for any parent who has trouble getting their children to go to bed at the right time. The first time we listened was a magical experience for us both. The voice of the creator of Relax Kids, Marneta Viegas has a beautiful quality, soft and nurturing. The songs sung by Bliss are sensational. The meditations, songs and stories leave you feeling deeply relaxed and in the most wonderful space imaginable. For my daughter to WANT to go to bed early every night to listen to this enchanting CD says it all!'
Paradigm Shift
'Every parent needs some quiet time to rest and recharge. Children are no different. Relax Kids helps children of all ages to sleep better, cope with stress and anxieties and become more confident and creative. Relax Kids is such a simple approach but it really can help create a happier home.
The CD leads children through magical exercises, learning to relax their body and mind. Ideal for bedtime listening, brining a feeling of calm, your child will step in his mind and some on a magical adventure.
