This not at all what I thought it was. Very weird...you are just suppose to make ummmmmmmmm noises.

After reading some of the reviews about Wayne Dyer's voice, I checked it out of the library for a test run, expecting to not like it . . although I do like his voice on his other CD's/DVD's. I've listened to it three times yesterday in the car while driving - just to see if I wanted to proceed and use it "properly." I found his voice to be very helpful; I enjoyed doing the meditation WITH him. I liked his explanation of the process and why these sounds in particular are used; I'm very excited to begin to use it in the morning and evening as instructed. He has read some letters on his healing CD (an excellent live presentation at a chiropractors' conference) from a few folks who used this japa meditation; the stories are as amazing as the ones I read in the Amazon reviews. Wayne Dyer acquaints newbies with meditation/healing practices in such a wonderful, simple, straightforward way. I'm sure after a few days of doing the meditations with the CD, I will just do my own thing, but right now I'm finding it very helpful to be led through it step by step.

well I listen to it on the way to work. the Ah for the am and it relaxes me as i drive through traffic. Its only 20 minutes long. Since i have been using it for a while i skip the disk to the point the Ah chanting starts. This Cd requires an open mind. I really enjoy it. my road rage has decreased.

Dr Dyer's meditation technique is easy to achieve. Works well for someone who is impatient but has good intentions.

Basically I agree with the others who gave this a one-star review. Wayne Dyer begins this piece fine by talking about how we can manifest good things by the thoughts in our minds. Then he goes on to demonstrate how to meditate by repeating the chant "A-h-h-h-h" for half the CD, then by chanting "O-m-m-m-m-m" for the second half. This is NOT a tape or CD to listen to on the way to work or while jogging. Being stuck in a car with Dr. Dyer repeating a mantra non-stop for 45 minutes will make anyone go postal. If I hadn't ejected this tape, rolled down the window and tossed it into the high-density lane, I would have become an axe murderer by the end of my commute.

This CD is GREAT!!! I listen to it in my car.... over and over.

This CD set is beneficial to making the personal growth process a little easier. I just finished the set and know for a fact i will listen to it many more times. Dr. Wayne Dyer is so on point with a lot of his statements. I need to listen repeatedly so the valid points sink in and stay there! He is a great speaker and i find myself wanting to share his wisdom with many of my friends. My other favorite was his set "Power of Intention".. It wasnt the book one but a conference like this "Making the Shift" set. I did worry that a lot of the material would be repetitive but it absolutely is NOT! They are both great CD sets. Buy this if you can.. you will be glad you did!

I am a huge Wayne Dyer fan & this CD set does not disappoint! I listen in the car-over & over!!! Quick shipping, exactly as described, brand new - wold definitely buy again

I just got this CD set yesterday and finished it today. I was originally hesitant to purchase it as I have heard a lot of Wayne Dyer CD's over the years and thought it might be too much of the same. As in any of his CD's, there is some repeat material but there is so much new material--it is definitely worth listening to a few times. I felt inspired as well as feeling very centered and grounded as I listened to the CD's. This is a recording of a live workshop that was presented in Maui. Participates apparently paid $500 or more to attend. But listening to these CD's, you feel like you were there--and it is a lot cheaper than actually going. I have already put the CD's on my IPOD and purchased 2 additional sets for friends/family. I highly recommend this CD set. I personally like it much better than the movie of the same title and felt that I got more out of it. I also purchased the book but haven't read it so I don't know how much of the material repeats itself. I do know that the book is fairly short so I imagine there is a lot of material in here that isn't in the book. This CD set speaks to a wide range of audiences and Dr. Dyer does not speak to or adhere to a specific religion. People from all religions and even no religions can relate to this material and benefit greatly from it. A lot of the material deals with the EGO and moving past EGO to a more centered and grounded place. Dr. Dyer teaches paths to happiness that are not based on anything you do or have. Therefore, if you put to work these steps in your life, you can find happiness regardless of your situation because you will be living more in your Divine Purpose. I am very appreciative that Dr. Dyer continues to develop his work and delve into new areas or deeper into areas already taught by him. I would highly recommend this CD set. And, personally, I would recommend this over the movie--although both are good if you can afford both.

Dr. Dyer provides a useful strategy to question whether excuses are valid and shows us how to eliminate those that are not. This work is in alignment with that of Katie Byron's I Need Your Love - Is That True?: How to Stop Seeking Love, Approval, and Appreciation and Start Finding Them Instead and Dr. Rosalene Glickman's Optimal Thinking: How to Be Your Best Self. i recommend all three books, if you want to make the most of your life and career.

This book is amazing. it really start to change my life. A therapy without a therapist. I do recommend it to every one because it touches our life from all aspects. Thank you Amazon for this great book

Excuses Be Gone is a wonderful book I feel everyone needs to read. It shows me the way into higher ways of thinking, brings peace into my life, and reminds me as to who I really am. Wayne Dyer is about the people he is helping. He is selfless. Thank you for being you. Thank you! Vickie Gay, psychic medium

Wayne Dyer has kind of come full circle. From his own admission, when he first started out as a therapist, he had little tolerance for those who are slow, overweight, don't exercise, don't take care of themselves, but as a therapist it would seem those are just the types of people he would try most to help. I saw him in person in Tampa at the I Can Do It expo, and was so appauled that he was in tears admitting past faults - leaving his 1st wife (who was there by the way - so I'm not slamming him for that), not being involved enough with his 1st child, etc... He talked about sitting on airplanes and being repulsed by the number of overweight people who get on the plane. Well I'm not happy about it either, but I'm not in the helping profession. I was just so turned off by his schpeil, and then to read this book, and how he talks about living the tao? Hmmmm... something seems to be missing from the equation. Wouldn't living the tao mean being non-judgemental towards those who aren't as evolved? I don't know... I used to really enjoy reading or listening to Dr Dyer, but these days it seems he's not really in it to really help those who need him most. If I were overweight I'd be very hurt by what he has to say about obesity - I'm not, but I do have fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue, and I don't think he makes any distinction between those people who have issues, and those making excuses. I just don't like the tone, especially considering Dr Dyer's life hasn't exactly been perfection. It felt more judgemental than a work of help. I hope he continues to evolve, and not stop at his current take on things.

I've received this book as a gift from my coach Donna Amos. I must say it's an excellent book and I'm truly impressed. This is the first book by Wayne Dyer I've read and after reading Excuses Begone I'm definitely going to explore other books by this author. I like Mr. Dyer's no-nonsense, straightforward approach combined with spirituality. He defines the main excuses that we use and then offers a step-by-step system that anyone can use to eliminate these excuses from our life. Deep limiting beliefs are often difficult to get rid of but Mr. Dyer makes it easy, clear and understandable. I appreciate the fact that he does not only tell you how to do it but he also explains why you should do it and what the benefit will be once you overcome the obstacles. Before reading this book, I quite often used phrases like: "It's too difficult. It will take a long time. I'm too... for this." And I never realized I was using excuses because they just seemed reasonable and plausible. I've eliminated these excuses from my life thanks to Mr. Dyer's book and I know how to deal with them should they ever appear again. I also appreciate positive affirmations that Mr. Dyer offers throughout the book. As a big fan of positive affirmations, I'm well aware of their power and I find those in Excuses Begone to be very valuable and helpful. If you want to move your life forward, learn how to be completely responsible for your life and stop looking for reasons why you actually can't achieve your goals or make your dreams come true, get Excuses Begone. This book and the advice it contains is truly priceless. Barbora Knobova Author of Delicious Books for Strong, Bold, Fearless Women [...] Tales for Delicious Girls Delicious Girl's Guide to Self-Love
