Book Reviews of Instant Self-Hypnosis: How to Hypnotize Yourself with Your Eyes Open
Book Review: interesante
Summary: 4 Stars
bueno no lo eh puesto en practica, pero es bastante bueno, me quito muchas ieas falsas de lo que era el verdadero hipnotismo y bueno ya hice la primera parte yme gusto, hay que abrir un poco la mente para nosotros al hacer los ejercicios pongamos nuestro cerebro con mas voluntad de abrirse, ya lo lei todo, y ya voy a empezar los ejercicios,
pero queria opinar porque hasta ahora excelente, y asi no resulten los ejercicios aprendi una realidad del hipnotismo que no sabia.
Book Review: It works for getting rid of bad habits
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an excellent self-help book. I have now over 2 months without biting and destroying my nails. I had been biting my nails since I was a child, but I do not remember when it started. It probably was when I was 4-5 years old. The thing is that I do not remember me having healthy nails, and I do not remember me without biting my nails. When I became an adult, biting my nails in public was embarrasing, so I started quietly destroying the flesh around my nails,and the nails while I was doing anything, like watching TV, driving, talking, etc. My nails were so destroyed that I always was embarrased of showing them, and always was trying to hide them from others. I had tried many thins to get rid of this habit, psycology books which give a method to follow, other meditation methods using affirmations, but nothing worked. Never ever, had been able to leave my naisl alone for even a day. With these other methods, perhaps I was able to leave, at least partially, alone my nails for one day, but the urge to bite/destroy them was so powerful that I could not resist touching them for a longer period of time. When I was really nervous for something, my nails were bleeding, and several times I lost some of them. ( because of infection). This is for you to have an idea of how stubborn was this habit. I always wanted and desired with all my heart not to have this habit, but simply could not get rid of it. I followed the instructions on this book, and did the script for "End fingernail biting" on page 90, for 15 days in a row, and to my surprise I was able not to touch/bite my nails during this time, even though the urge to do it was strong at sometimes. But was able to resist the temptation. Then I did another script, that I created following the instructions in the book for another thing I needed, but as soon I finished with this other goal, I repeated the script for fingernail biting for another 15 days in a row. I am so happy and surprised that I almost cannot believe that this is happening, that I have over 2 months now without touching my nails. For the first time in my life I have been able to cut and trim my nails. But some of them have suffered too much damage that still do not look good, and are slowly healing and recovering. For you to have an idea of the lenght of time I have been biting/destroying my nails, I am in the 40's. So I have been biting/destroying my nails for over 30 years. The method of this book really works, and it has many useful scripts to follow for other goals to achieve. In addition it gives a method to write your own scripts to achieve anything you want or need. (help with your subconscions mind). Highly recommended. Book Review: A necessary Tool for Self-Development
Summary: 5 Stars
I `coincidently' found Instant Self-Hypnosis - How to Hypnotize Yourself With Your Eyes Open(2004) by Forbes Robbins Blair while reading about states of awareness experienced during creative writing. My initial interest in his book was his story of how he discovered his own induced state of trance by accident. Many therapists have told me since, that it is common to enter a heightened sense of awareness while working with clients, but Forbes was entering trance by just writing inductions. He stumbled across this realization by preparing for an upcoming client. This was different than anything else I had heard about. Further, Forbes' `symptoms' of his hypnotic state were almost identical to what I experience when writing and I am `in the flow'. His book provides inductions, scripts and templates as well as an overview for how to reach your unconscious mind through simply reading aloud or writing that which you want to achieve. I recommend this book to all of my students and I refer those whom I coach to use it as a tool for their bag of tricks in personal development. Book Review: Instant Self Hynosis
Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent book. I've been biting my nails for 30 years and noticed a difference after the first session. I am now aware every time that my nails approach my mouth. I just take two deep breaths and the urge to bite my nails goes away. I cannot wait to try some of the other sessions to help me improve in other aspects of my life.
The book arrived super fast and have loved it since.
Book Review: There are better books out there
Summary: 1 Stars
I was very dissapointed with this book. I found many of the scripts were written in a negative tone. For example, the script for clear and healthy skin has a sentance that says "As I am free of blemishes and irritated skin...". My mind focused on blemishes and irritated. It would have been more helpful if it were written in positive tone. Maybe he could have said - As I have clear, smooth and healthy skin with a rosy glow - or something like that, never making any references to any negative outcomes. There are a few times in this book when the author goes to the negative instead of the positive.
The idea that you can hynotize yourself while reading is a great idea, however, it's better for me to either write my own scripts or find a different book.
