Concise and very practical!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
The brevity and easy outline of the processes on the topic have made me want to put aside my NLP books and others I've looked at by Dr. Erickson and focus on Dr. Burke's method. I found myself getting too caught up in technicalities in other books and not applying the methods. Just today I took 5-10 minutes in the car before a career fair, and don't see it as a surprise that my state during the fair mimicked my mental rehearsal of things going exactly as I wanted! After applying these methods, I'll incorporate bits of other learnings. I also appreciate and am in accord with the holistic model which the author bases his writing on.
Excellent!

This book gives very complete and concise instruction and advice on how to use hypnosis to improve the quality of your life. I've read quite a few books on hypnosis over the past several weeks and this is perhaps the best of the lot. I appreciated the fact that Dr. Burke conveys highly effective techniques without ever getting longwinded (the book is a trim 165 pages long - about a 1/4 inch thick). In a nutshell, this book will help you to make great, positive changes in your life in a realatively short amount of time. This book provides a very organized "how to" on how to get into a trance state and change your subconscious mind.
I wish the author would write more books!

As a practitioner of the Chinese internal arts, meditation, etc. this book really resonated with me. Too many books on this subject are either intellectual psycho-babble, new age "theories" or worse yet don't give enough guidance to deal with the real issues you may encounter. This is not a huge tome. It is small to medium sized book which is filled with practical guidance, written by someone who obviously has a good deal of experience and knowlege with issues of the mind (as applied to self-improvement). The tone of it is smart, but enjoyable to read, and I have been surprised several times to find some little tidbit which addresses an issue I'm experiencing at the time. There is another reviewer who seems upset that this book doesn't cover spirituality. In my opinion, this is rediculous and unfair. Once one has ACTUAL EXPERIENCE with the techniques, you can apply them to whatever you want! But if it's true spirituality you're after, wouldn't you rather seek guidance from an established tradition?
