Summary: The bear sleeps better without this CD
Review: Save your money. I've used better self-hypnosis tapes that offered more than this. I used this CD several times. The only time it was most effective was after I took an over-the-counter sleeping pill.

Summary: What a disappointment!
Review: The technical quality of the CD makes it virtually unusable. What it sounds like is that Janet Decker is sitting there with a script and a microphone and clicks the microphone on and off before and after every utterance. Probably I'm actually hearing bad editing, but the constant click, click, click is irritating and distracting - just the opposite of what I need to help me sleep. I feel as though I've wasted my money on this one.

Summary: Hypnosis to Help You Deeply
Review: This CD has been very helpful to me. The voice is nice, the rhythm is good, and the suggestions are very good! I was uncertain about buying it due to a "Spotlight Review" by: Karen, however, I needed help to sleep and have tried other things with no result. Unlike Karen I did not find the "disclaimer" to be annoying. It's less than a minute long and having worked in the legal field for many years, I can understand why it has to be the first thing you hear before the actual hypnosis begins. Too many people don't read disclaimers, so I don't consider this to be poor editing, but rather a smart move on the part of Ms. Decker. The other thing I thought was very good about this CD is the length of each track. Some CD's I've tried for various things are up to 45 minutes long. This is far too time consuming for me. My schedule is full and I need something effective which is no more than 30 minutes in duration, therefore I find the tracks on Decker's CD's to be of perfect length. Decker's speaking pace is quite perfect for facilitating relaxation. I do seem to find my own breathing rhythm, which is what most everyone does and is supposed to do, according to the instructions which I received by emailing the company. Most importantly of all, I am sleeping better. I am also using Decker's "Hypnosis for Stress Reduction" along with her "Sleep Deeply" CD and honestly I am much calmer everyday. This may be why I'm sleeping better as well. I find them to be a dynamite combination and well worth trying if you have sleeping difficulties.

Summary: Sleep Soundly
Review: This CD is definitely a keeper. It is an easy, inexpensive way to attend a hypnosis session in the privacy of your own home. Ms. Decker's smooth, gentle, reassuring voice places you in a state of deep relaxation.Her suggestions are easy to understand and follow. I found this CD a great way to slow down after a busy, hectic day. My body and mind experiences a wonderful peaceful, calm. With Ms.Deckers's suggestions, I began to learn to focus on my breathing and as a result my mind and body seem to mesh while I am using the CD.I have learned to focus my thoughts inwardly and still my body in the process. The reward is a deep calm which I take with me long after I have finished listening to the CD.

Summary: Well Worth Trying
Review: This CD is well worth it for anyone that suffers from insomnia.
It has worked well for me. Ms. Decker's technique is direct and non-gimmicky. There is no new age music or temple chimes in the background - just well practiced hypnotic technique. In order to alleviate my insomnia I had several in-person sessions with a hypnotherapist. This CD is more effective than the personal sessions. If you are going through the misery of insomnia, this is certainly worth trying. It can be a 100% drug free cure.

Summary: It works!
Review: This is the first time I've tried a hypnosis CD and I am very pleased with this CD. Janet's voice is very soothing. Her suggestions on the CD put me in a state of relaxation. I fall into restful asleep very quickly with this CD playing in the background. I hope it will help you too.
