Summary: A good self-help book
Review:

Leslie Lecron is no beginner in the field of hynosis. He's written several books on the subject and is an established and highly qualified authority on the subject.

Over the years, I have been interested in this subject. Everyone uses hypnotic suggestion on themselves, whenever they tell themselves (or others) that they are "no good" at something, or that they've "always been able to" do some feat. Those are both examples of negative and positive suggestion (self-hypnosis).

But, with this book you can go much further. You can learn techniques which will enrich your life, heal certain illnesses, and generally inprove your situation. Tried and true methods.

I recommend it.

Summary: Want to go on a diet?
Review: I was trying to lose weight. I came across this book at a used book store. I tried the self hypnotism routine. It helped out a little when I think back. But the rest of the book did make for good reading while I was on the beach.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: All one needs to learn effective self-hypnosis
Review: Leslie Lecron has a warm, conversational writing style that makes this book very easy to read. He also knows this subject very well, which makes this book very worthwhile to read. At one time during her career, he provided help via hypnosis to Marilyn Monroe, which seems impressive evidence of his reputation.

We do natural things like breath, be aware, and rest. Systems come back to us with a varity of techniques of meditation which primarily "teach us" to breath, be aware, and rest. One nice thing about "self-hypnosis" is that, while it also leverages some natural abilities we have, it does so largely without hocus-pocus, without expectations that one join some organization, and without the need to become reliant on some teacher. Nevertheless, hypnosis can be extremely effective, even if we are only being taught a simple technique that we had the capacity for all along.

There are so many books on self-hypnosis. I've owned a few and browsed many. This book is the best I've found and, after searching around looking at others for a while, I realized that this one contains more than enough by itself. Whatever theory may be invoked to explain hypnosis, being pragmatic one can see for oneself how effective it is.

I don't seem to go into especially deep traces but I'm able to enter a very restful trance easily. It didn't take me long to learn how to do that, other than to learn not to expect too much. Self-hypnois can be very effective especially after one learns not to chase after some of the exaggerated claims made for it. Lecron's integrity is helpful in this regard. I'm glad I found it soon after I became interested in self-hypnosis.

I haven't tried to regress my age yet, but self-hypnosis seems to have helped my bruxism and provided a nice space in which to review my day and put my mistakes into a healthy perspective. I have hundreds of books stored away or on remote shelves: this is one of just 3 books that I keep next to my bed.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Classic by a mainstream author
Review: Now don't go comparing this book to others for the number of stars. As this book is five star on its own. Leslie M. Lecron is well known as a mainstream specialist in the technique and understanding of the hypnosis process. What you are looking at is a classic. He may be a little Freud happy; however so was every one else in his environment. Say what you will the concept of triggering events is still with us. There is only one diagram of a Cheurel Pendulum "Magic Eye" and no photographs. Instead of me trying to interpret the good, bad and ugly of this book I will write the chapter titles so you can decide if this is what you are looking for.
