Book Reviews of The Self-Hypnosis Kit
Book Review: Simple and clear
Summary: 4 Stars
This book's title accurately describes the content and the book does focus on self-hypnosis only. I bought it because it included the tape, but the tape wasn't as much help as I'd expected which is the reason I gave it 4 stars. The tape uses the muscle by muscle strategy for relaxation which just doesn't work well for me. The book is clear, gives good affirmations, and explains things well.Book Review: It works but...
Summary: 3 Stars
Trying various hypnosis/meditation items, I would say that this product has induced one of the deepest hypnotic state or relaxed sensation I have experienced. However, I personally have a little bit of difficulty with the procedure to bring myself to the state. Having to keep eyes high on a spot for a long time is somewhat more physically enduring than other tactics out there. So, I would say, it works, but a little bit hard physically. I would like to find other methods to induce the deep relaxed state without hardship, and use the suggestive stuff that was mentioned in this book. Book Review: The Self-Hypnosis Kit
Summary: 5 Stars
As a firm disbeleiver in hypnosis,hypnotherapy and NLP which I formly called "junk science". I have truley been converted. If you are interested in how any of these disiplines listed above can help you then I urge you to start with this kit. Read the book then listen to the tape. After only two sessions, I found myself totally amazed with the effects of hypnosis. My first concern was, since I don't smoke, am not overweight, don't drink to access or have any other overt bad habits, I wondered what could this tape possibly do for me. I was stunned, I turned on the tape, started listening and awoke from the session 20 minutes later totaly refreshed, stress free and totally relaxed ( just like the hypnotist had directed ).Undersatand, I didn't even realize I had been hypnotised!I thought I was sitting on a bench in a beautilful garden relaxing ( also as directed by the hypnotist on the tape). The voice ( a woman with an English acent )on the tape has a wonderful calming effect.
As I said, if you are interested in what hypnosis could do for youd-start here as I did. You will be simply amazed!....and she teaches you how to induce yourself into self-hypnosis too!
Book Review: Great for Self Help!
Summary: 4 Stars
The book and tape set really helped me with stress control and migraine headache pain control. I am amazed at how easy it is to self-hypnotize. The book is instructive without being preachy or "text-book-ish". Like some others, I find it hard to stay awake during the tape, though.
If you're curious about self help through self hypnosis, this is definately worth a try!
Book Review: Great Cassette.... if only there were a CD version
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this kit, and have used it from time to time. The author has a pleasant English accent, and if you've ever listened to any guided meditation before, you know that the voice can affect your ability to relax and follow instructions.
After some practice, I was able to try SELF-HYPNOSIS on myself. I set a time limit (60 seconds) for me to go under and think about a specific topic. My friend was in the room with his watch and timed the entire episode. It was truly unbelievable that my mind/body knew precisely when I had been under for the specified time frame, and then woke up automatically.
We tried this with various time frames, and each time, I woke up as scheduled. It was similar to the body rhythm that wakes you up at the same time in the morning for a work day... and yes, annoyingly so on a weekend. It was very interesting to see that I could concentrate (brainstorm, really, in a fast paced but relaxed manner) on a particular topic of interest while under SELF-HYPNOSIS and still wake up at the specified time WITHOUT aid of a timer, clock, or person.
Both sides of the tape, as well as the booklet that accompanies it, are worth the price of admission in my book. Good luck on your journey!
