Customer Reviews

Skeptic at first, but this really works!

I saw this in the book store and I simply thought I would make people do funny things, but the quality of life improvement is huge. From the very first session, I focused on stop stressing out and felt so good after I hypnotized my wife with it. I am glad to share with you I have 99% effectively conquered several "sin"'s in my life that I have been struggling with for years. Everything from swearing to over eating and anything beyond. I am tempted to have myself get sick after eating chocolate, but I am too convinced that it would stop me from eating it! This is more than worth the money.

Book that Changes Your Life! No Kidding!

I didn't title this review lightly to suggest: "This book changes your life". It truly does. Please recall a great movie you saw in the theater, and remember how you felt good, uplifted and excited afterwards. The movie produced that ecstatic feeling. What if you could feel the sameway all the time, and get two birds with a one stone by simultaneously fulfilling your dreams, improving your own life and becoming the person that you always wanted to be? Well, ultimately you will walk the talk. When a friend suggested I purhcase this book; I felt sceptical. Thought there is nothing new under the sun - after all, I considered myself somewhat all-done dynamo when it concerns self-help literature. When the book arrived, I thought this is speaking of and refering to same things I am doing with creative visualization - so would it bring any benefits? It proves out I was so mistaken. The book is more than I expected....and keeps bringing greater benefits into my life. The author's contemporary writing style feels like a friend who is visiting you, and talking to you in person. It does not matter whether you are a professional or a beginner, this book is for everyone. And yes, you can hypnotize yourself for success, happiness and all good things with its guidance. And with eyes open there are several advantages. First of all, it is easy to stay focused. You are reading and imagining at the same time, so your mind does not wander around as much as with traditional creative visualization. Also, the author is a pro hypnotist and has carefully designed the techniques, for maximum effectiveness. Let me tell you of my first experience with the method. After I had finished reading the introduction part, I followed the instructions for the first session. I started following instructions, and felt myself going into deep state of relaxation... My mind didn't wander around at all, and then something unbelievable happened. I felt tingles all over my body, not once, but twice. That has never happened with conventional creative visualization or meditation. Also, during the first session, at one point, I had doubts whether I was really in deep state of hypnosis....but quickly continued with the method.. It was only after I had finished, 20 minutes later (it felt like 5 minutes)...that I realized it ACTUALLY worked. It truly felt rather like 5 minutes than all those 20 minutes it took. I felt the same way as after the good movie I had seen, and that good feeling lasted for several hours. After the initial work is done, the book provides many ready sessions -- you can choose which ones to use, or create your own. Also, I empowered this method by including some stuff from Neville Goddard's book "The Law And The Promise". It is a highly recommended companion to this book. In short, the author Mr. Blair, has written a phenomenal book... I wonder why other professionals from this field have not recognized that you can self-hypnotize yourself eyes wide open -- and som

35 Useful Scripts for Self-Hypnosis

This book is essentially a script book for self-hypnosis. At the beginning of the book is a general induction you can use to induce yourself into a trance state, followed by a selection of 35 scripts for dealing with common issues and helping you to improve your life. You'll find scipts for weight-loss, confidence, motivation, public speaking, lucid dreaming, better sex life and many others. The book is marketed as using hypnosis while you're awake. This may seem to make it different from other hypnosis books, unless you understand that you are using hypnosis every time you use your imagination and get absorbed by your inner experience - and for that matter any time you read any book that transports you into another world, the world described in that book and you become oblivious to your environment to a certain degree, you are in hypnosis - much like you are in hypnosis when you are absorbed in the action of the movie you are watching on TV. The only difference is that with TV you get to watch the images, and while reading the book, you create them in your mind, according to your interpretation of the words. You can use the scripts in this book either by reading them, but you can also record them on a tape and just relax and listen to them. You should use whatever method helps you to engage your imagination better and create a more vivid subjective experience. This book was created for non-hypnotists - however even a professional hypnotist, particularly those who are new to hypnosis, may use this book as an additional resource - just as they would use any other script (patter) book. Near the end of the book is a section on hypnotizing yourself while you write. This has brought to my mind another book "The Einstein Factor" and the method called "image streaming" which you may also experiment with; as well as mind-mapping, which is particularly useful for drawing the information out of your subconscious mind. The next section, Suggestion Template, guides you through a process which will help you to create successful suggestions that will be customized to your personality, preferences and your specific outcome. The book contains few additional sections with useful information on supercharging your affirmation and getting the best results out of your self-hypnosis session.

I WAS a skeptic.

I highly recommend the book for those who want to know how and why people choose hypnosis to change their lives or an undersirable behavior. Simply put, it worked for me after a little practice and a little rereading - had I initially followed the directions to a "T," it probably would have helped me to become more efficient sooner. In otherwords, when it says to find a "quiet place where you can be completely alone..." you really have to do so. That meant I had to put my cat out of the room and close the door in order to eliminate all distractions and keep my mind from wondering.In my opinion, the best thing about the book was the various templates. They help you organize your thoughts on paper and systmatically achieve your goal. I was impressed. Highly reccommend the book.
