Creative Self-Hypnosis : New wide-awake, nontrance techniques to empower your life, work, and relationships

Rating:
Summary: Excellent low-hype instruction in self-hypnosis!
Review: Straus' book is one of the few reasonable, low-hype self-help books out there. It is a thorough, clear and exciting book, with exercises that are illuminating and easy to do. There is a lot of excellent material on what hypnosis is and how to best use it to accomplish one's goals. This book, and its companion book, Creative Self-Hypnosis, bear little similarity to the lurid, sensationalistic, and shoddy popular books out there on self-hypnosis and mental training...this is the real deal, by a practicing clinical sociologist and hypnotherapist. A very very good and useful book.
