5.0 out of 5 stars An informative but entertaining intro to hypnotism, 16 Nov 2000
This review is from: How to Hypnotize Yourself... without Losing Your Mind: A Self-hypnosis Training Program for Students and Educators (Paperback)
finally a book that unveils the mystique of hypnotism and reveals to the reader the amazing world of hypnotism. It works at a basic level for the beginner without compromising itself by over simplifying a complex matter. This makes the book suitable both for the curious amateur and the knowledgable reader.

when you read this publication you will make discoveries you never imagined possible, using the human mind, with control and instruction. After you have read it you will learn to deal with anxiety, stress, pain and addictions as well as improving your capacity to learn and develop, this book is a must, a gem.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Useful, 9 April 2005

Chris (sw england) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)   
This review is from: How to Hypnotize Yourself... without Losing Your Mind: A Self-hypnosis Training Program for Students and Educators (Paperback)
Wayne F. Perkins is a man who likes to big himself up in typical American style. Likewise this book is written in the kind of annoyingly tacky, hard-sell common to American consumerism. However, do not let this put you off, because once you get past the facade, and ego-trip, this is actually an extremely useful book. I bought it about five months ago, and have been working my way through the lessons and projects at a leisurely pace - And you know what - it has really begun to transform my life!

One of the early lessons invites you to set and record a good number of goals to work on. The author then shows you how to record self-hypnotic inductions, and then to formulate your own suggestions to apply to yourself in order to change your thinking and behaviour in order to accomplish your goals. It's not magic, but it works, and it works well. For the first time in my life, I feel that my mind and my energies are properly focused on acheiving what I want in life, in a natural and effective way. This includes building my confidence, and self-esteem, as well as passing a masters degree, improving my martial arts skills, and strengthening my relationship with my wife (to name but a few).

One thing that you will need, is a method of recording your voice. This is in order to record your inductions and play them back your to hypnotise yourself. I would thouroughly recommend one of the MP3 players such as a Zen Micro, or if your budget and computer skills stretches to it the Iriver H320. But anything that allows you to do this will do.

The book is easy to read, and understand, and most of the lessons are fairly straightforward. There is also the authors website you can use as a resource and encouragement - although I have since found other ones that suit me better. Furthermore, there are a few books by other authors available through Amazon that give further perspectives and inspiration for writing your own hypnotic scripts.

All in all, this book is a little tacky, but if you seriously want to use self-hypnosis to improve your life - buy it!

2.0 out of 5 stars Practical, Easy read but what is it's real purpose??, 17 Oct 2001
By M. Patterson "jasmines1" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: How to Hypnotize Yourself without Losing Your Mind: A Self-hypnosis Training Program for Students and Educators (Spiral-bound)
I was very excited to receive this book and had been looking forward to it's arrival. Many of the reviews were very positive, and I considered the "advertisement" adage as just a fluke (sorry now that I didn't head the warning). As I began reading this I was pleasantly surprised to find it an easy read even though it seemed to be published in a textbook/teachers guide format (spiral bound publication). The information was accurate and practical.

With that said let me explain what did NOT appeal to me. I found that any real substance in this book could have very easily fit in a small pocket book of less than 30 pages. The information was practical and easy to understand but nothing unique and would not be remarkably enlightening to anyone who has read even "beginners" books on the subject.

The exercises were logical and truly the only real information, I felt, useful. The "scripts" were very average and similar ones that can be obtained on many free web sources. But what really troubled me about this book was this:

As I began reading, the author repeatedly gives his web address, mentioning what a great information source it was (no exaggeration when I say about every third page, for the first section of the book). Even stating; "if you do not have Internet access, I would strongly recommend that you get access." My initial thought was `how nice I can read the book and refer to the site for updates and additional information'. Later, when I ventured to the site I was greatly disappointed. Realizing it was nothing more than a very unprofessional web-site only being utilized for Advertisement to promote his E-books and training's. No Real information at all. There was nothing of substance, only a few descriptions and hints "sample chapters" about his books. The entire concept left me with a negative perception of this author. Feeling his real objective
had little to nothing to do with educating and most or ALL to do with MAKING MORE MONEY!!!

Now if truly intend to purchase this book for the sparse information it carries, I feel we can all learn from several sources. It is practical, and easy to understand, but be prepared to be repeatedly reminded of his true intent with the all to obvious advertising throughout the book.

My personal recommendation would be that you not waste your time or money and find a better self-hypnosis source. There are several better ones out there, along with some great information on the web if your willing to do a little searching.
Good luck on your ventures.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not the best of choices, 4 Feb 2003
By William Oterson - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: How to Hypnotize Yourself... without Losing Your Mind: A Self-hypnosis Training Program for Students and Educators (Paperback)
Compares unfavorably to other books in this genre. There is the inevitable commercial, in every chapter, to visit the author's web site. There is considerable repetition. Almost leads the reader to believe there was a maximum amount of difficulty finding text to fill the (required?) pages. I don't believe the book was proof read, there are so many errors in spelling, sentence structure etc. I purchased the book relying on past reviews and, frankly, I will not make that mistake again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Readers can access hypnosis and help themselves. TC. England, 4 Aug 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: How to Hypnotize Yourself without Losing Your Mind: A Self-hypnosis Training Program for Students and Educators (Spiral-bound)
Wayne Perkins sets out to enable two things with his book; to show the student how to access hypnosis and the best strategies for utilizing its benefits. The book is reasonably light on theory (did I hear a sigh of relief?) but complete with practical tuition and personal examples. The author shares his experience with the reader but it doesn't end there because technologies are employed to ensure the student has an interactive and up to the minute involvement in the learning process. Through a special site on the Internet the reader can get updates to the text, share comments with other enthusiasts and ask questions of the author himself. This is a very practical workbook which actively encourages a commitment from the reader and so is far less likely to end up languishing on the shelf!
