Rating: Summary: This book continues to sell! Review: Relax Take a few deep breaths Imagine yorself on a tropical island you are getting sleepy...sleepy...sleepy you will now buy this book
Rating: Summary: Positive thinkung, not hypnosis Review: The book is well written if a guide for positive thinking, and basics of self hypnotism. It is weak in the areas of induction, depth of trance, and hypnotic phenomena. The positive thinking approach suggested is valid, but barely touches on hypnotism in many chapters.
Rating: Summary: After reading this book you will understand hypnotism. Review: This book is great for the definition and history of hypnotism. It briefly covers many famous people who made contributions to hypnotism. This book is also the !BEST! that I have seen when it comes to helping you write scripts. It is very limited though when it comes to hypnotising others. It seems that this book is very much in favor of the reader going to a certified hypnotist rather than learn the art for yourself. This book will give you some direction on how to hypnotise others but I would recommend "Professional Stage Hypnotism" or "Fun with Hypnosis" for that. This book will be useful once you have already hypnotised someone and is different that your average beginner/intro to hypnosis.

Rating: Summary: OK for self-hypno..... Review: This book is so-so. I've seen many more "Idiot's Guides" that were far more useful for their intended purpose. This book will give the reader a sufficient explanation of what hypnosis is all about, enough so to allay any fears one might have. The most in-depth portion of the book is self-hypnosis...but even for that, there are plenty more books and CDs available that do a better job. This book is sorely lacking in anything close to telling how to perform hypno. It's a rather long-winded book and is lacking in actual useful scripting or techniques.

Rating: Summary: Excellent book for the lay reader! Review: This book is superb for the average reader, because it tells so much about hypnosis. It does not seem to be intended to teach a lay person HOW to be a hypnotherapist, because for that one has to first be a qualified health professional, such as a psychologist or a physician. So, if one wants to learn a lot ABOUT hypnosis, read this book.
Rating: Summary: Great self help book Review: This book is well written, very understandable, and an easy read. Once I started reading I couldn't put it down. If your are looking for something to help you understand what hynosis is and what it can help you with then start with this book. It has plenty of real life examples chances are what ever you are trying to improve is discussed. You will learn how to find a good hypnotherapist and also how to do self hynosis. I found this book to be of great help and I am sure you will as well.
Rating: Summary: The Complete Idiots Guide To Hypnosis Review: This book should have been titled everything you wanted to know about hypnosis and more.Both professionals and non professionals will find this book helpful. The material that was presented fully explains each step of the hypnosis process in an orderly and detailed manner. Several chapters build on the information which was provided in previous chapters. If you have a fear of hypnosis this book will relieve your fears. It offers the reader detailed information on the process, how it works and what to expect. Dr. Temes provides the reader with a wealth of information on the subject of hypnosis. She shares her years of private practice to educate the readers in the hypnosis process and how through hypnosis she was able to help her clients. Chapters discuss reasons people choose or should choose to use hypnosis to assist them with health problems, to break habits such as smoking or drinking and to improve their lifestyle. Information is given to enable the readers to hypnotize themselves. I found this book to be easy to read informative, and in parts funny.
Rating: Summary: A must not buy Review: This book was not helpful in learning hypnosis at all. If you want ideas about hypnosis then buy it. Otherwise do not buy.
