want to know ‘How’d you get the pictures to look so real?’.”
B.R., activities consultant AZ, “…I shared it (Divine Inspiration) with my
activity students. They were very impressed. Thank you for making material like this
available. Wish I would have had something like this when I worked in a facility.”
P.T., university gerontology professor, KY, “I wanted to spend a little more time
thanking and congratulating you folks. The comments I received on your videos were
favorable, - one person noting they were paced better than other like products she had
experienced. All agreed they are reasonably priced as well. I do appreciate your being
willing to allow me to use them…being able to present interesting and high-quality
products makes ME look good…”
E.H., activity worker, “Have just played the first tape “Country Pond”
everyone enjoyed it. Reminded them of home down on the farm. I’m sure the others will
be a big hit with our residents too!”
K.H., MSW, LCSW, assisted living in Hyannis, MA, “I was pleased to discover your
company and a selection of videos. I am a social worker… I would be interested in
having a relaxation session with videos. I have utilized the CD’s in the past,
however, having the scenery to follow along with music would be terrific and would hold
their attention for the designated time.”
S.G., home caregiver for Alzheimer’s relative, “Divine Inspiration …No
words, captivating images of churches of the Midwest - Beautifully filmed and put together
with soaring hymns. It has literally been a Godsend for me in times of extreme agitation
and upset. She (mother-in-law) was religious before this and somewhere in her this video
reaches a chord that no words ever would. This is a wonderful video for
Alzheimer’s.”
D.D., Ph.D., Extension agent in Gerontology, “ I personally will make use of your
videos for a close relative of mine who, due to her age and medical condition, is confined
to her home. Now she will be able to enjoy the beauty and serenity of garden flowers,

accompany such scenes.”

Rehab nurse, Rice Lake, WI., patient with closed head injury from car crash. “We
played the videos even though she (the patient) was semi comatose. She opened her
