Book Reviews of Lose Weight Now (Diviniti)Book Review: this one works Summary: 5 Stars
I have tried two other similiar CDs and this one is the best. I lost 5 pounds without trying or thinking about it. When I stopped listening for a couple of months, sure enough, I gained it back. It's very relaxing as well.
Book Review: Meditation CD Summary: 5 Stars
I love Glenn Harrold. His voice is so easy to listen too. Highly recommend any of his CDs.
Book Review: Lose Weight Now Summary: 4 Stars
Have been using for about two weeks. You have to be open to relaxation and willing to accept suggestion. I chose to customize a program for me, by loading the cd to an mp3 file, then using an audio program to take segments of the audio out. What I ended up with was a custom audio file that I was then able to run in an endless loop. I did not want it waking me at the end of every 30 minute session. I have two programs from Glenn Harold that I ran end to end, then loaded it to an mp3 player and set it to repeat so that as long as I wanted I could use the program... namely at night while sleeping. Normally as one sleeps there are periods of twilight sleep where we are most suggestable. This is how I use it. You are never in a deep trance, and when awake are totally aware of your suroundings. When the alarm goes off in the a.m. I wake normally. As far as the program itself goes, it is good. You get used to the british accent after a while, but is a little distracting in the beginning. Have been using my adjusted program for two weeks and have lost ten pounds, without exercise or doing anything artificial. I find that I tend to eat a little less and get full faster. Seems I lose patience sitting at the table too long, especialy if there is a lot of food. I wanted to see if the self hypnosis worked on its own merit before adding in an exercise program. My goal is to lose 1 pound a week. I have a lot to lose, but have not been sucessful in the long term with other programs I have tried. Every expert I talked to indicates that the bottom line is that it is all in the head. So, what better way to adjust than to change how I think about food and how I eat. So far so good.
Book Review: Slightly disappointing... Summary: 4 Stars
This cd contains 2 separate 30-minute sessions. At the end of each, the listener is told to wake up, which was a disappointment to me, considering I wanted to use the cd at bedtime. This is my main personal objection. In addition, it seems to me both 30-minute sessions give the same general instruction, just worded differently, so I'm not sure why he's recorded two. Glenn Harrold's British accent is also a little distracting. A few minutes into the cd, it sounds a bit eerie with the deep echoing effect, but I've grown accustomed to it. In addition, due to his accent, I find myself unable to discern certain words right away. He also uses unusual phrases, which often leaves me thinking more about his speech than the actual message & instruction. Even so, the messages he conveys are positive, uplifting & confidence inspiring, which serve to build self-esteem. I've only had the cd one week, and I haven't managed to stem my holiday overindulgence, but I do wake feeling refreshed and very positive afterward.
Book Review: Great Summary: 4 Stars
I, too, am deriving assistance in losing weight from this hypnosis CD. I find things I do automatically changing, even the kind of groceries I buy and the way I prepare food, too. Very worth the money. The reason I give this 4 stars instead of 5 is that his accent is hard to understand at times as he just mangles words, and I found it distracting that I had to kind of wonder what he had just said instead of being able to absorb the message he was trying to deliver. There are some words I just cannot get no matter how many times I listen to this CD. But it's an excellent tool, nevertheless. I would advise him to take elocution lessons, though.
