Although I have not had an opportunity to listen but once, the CD was very relaxing. I love the voice (always very important when referring to a relaxation or hypnotic CD) of the author. I'm very happy with it and look forward to using it more often.

Excellent product. I shared this CD wth several friends and they were all amazed at the effectiveness of the content..

I love Glenn Harrold. His voice is so easy to listen too. Highly recommend any of his CDs.

These CD's are an easy listen filled with wonderfully phrased, motivational words. Glenn's Australian accent is a pleasure to listen to. Places on the CD have music as well that accompanies the voice. I LOVE these CD's and own most of them. If you live in the states you may hear an occassional terminology that is not common in the U.S. (Example, in the weight series he uses a weight measurement of a 'stone' which is a British term that represents 14 pounds). This happen rarely and certainly does not detract from the message presented in any of Glenn's CD's. You can't really listen to these in the car as they are a little hypnotic so be sure you are in a stress free mind set and location when you listen to any of therse CD's. I felt they were worth every penny.

I look forward to this playing this CD - I have it on my IPOD and use it on my lunch break to focus, motivitate, and balance my energy. It leaves me feeling very good a about myself. PLEASE DONT GET CAUGHT UP WITH HIS ENGLISH ACCENT - THIS IS AN EXCELLENT CD - AND ACCENTS ARE JUST ACCENTS - NOTHING MORE. After listeing to this CD a couple of times you will feel so good that you will not hear the accent anymore.

One week smoke free after 36 yr of smoking, but do recommend good quality headphones to get the best results...

I was a deeply sceptical user but I did what the cd's told me to do and amazingly I gave up my pack a day habit. I listened to cd1 a week before my quit date. The day before my quit date I was still sceptical but woke up the next day and had NO urge to smoke. Didn't even need the nicotine patches. This is a truly remarkable technique to give up smoking.

These are the best CD's for what you are looking for. I tried 3 other products and these CD's caused a very serious change in how I related to smoking. I just....didn't feel like smoking anymore and I couldn't put my finger on why (smiles). Now this does not mean that the CD's do all the work. It just means that I didn't feel the urge like I had before. There were still very painless ideas in my brain to smoke. So the pain was gone, the desire seemed to go away, but the conscious choice to quit was still going to be needed if I was to quit. I also would have needed to keep listening to the CD's instead of stopping. At the time of purchase, the documentation for these CD's was inadequate. This may have changed since then. I found myself not wanting to smoke....true enough. But I couldn't figure out if I was listening to the right CD or not (there were 3). I stopped using the program after the first disc because I didn't know what to do next or when. Let me say that some of this might have been my own problem of wanting a "best practices" leaflet.

The actual hypnosis part was surprisingly effective for me, but the second time I listened, the author's somewhat nasal voice and vocal affectations began to really irritate me. His voice is just too distracting.

Forever Smoke Free! Stop Smoking Hypnosis (3 CD Set) [Box set] Absolute waste of my money. Save your money and try something else. These C.D.'s had no effect on my smoking what so ever. You'll be better off wishing on a star...........................

I was really excited to receive this item as it came so highly recommended. I agree with one of the other reviews that his voice is really wierd and takes a minute to get used to. However, once you're settled in and start relaxing, you will melt away with this cd! I'm not sure how successful it has been in helping me with self confidence, but I am sure am sleeping well! I don't mean this in that the cd is boring, it just is very relaxing and natural to listen to. I would recommend it.

At first, I was a bit spectacle of this product, but with time it has helped me change my personal attitude and outlook on life. Personally I am a lot happier, my disposition manages to remain positive in almost all situations, I manage stress better and my co-workers claim I'm "less evil" then before utilizing the CD. I recommend the CD highly, but you must commit to listening as much as possible in an environment conducive to relaxation.

Thanks a million for the quik service, seems like I just ordered the video and it was here.. Thanks for the great service..

I purchased this Self Confidence CD to deal with my negative mental chatter. New to the writing field, my self doubt beats up on me so strongly I talk myself out of projects before starting them. Trevor Scott has an excellent voice for hypnosis, inspiring trust - I'm not worried he's hidden subliminal message to make me do something against my will. He speaks with so much confidence I am able to internalize his messages. I've bought several hypnosis recordings where foreign accents, unsureness in the voice of the speaker, and background music that sounds like alien landings took the value out of the session, for example: Hypnosis to Enhance Creative Writing by Charles Vald. I was relieved Trever Scott did such a good job with voice, choice of background music, and well worded messages. I would like to see more Hypnosis CD's available from Trever Scott. All this being said, my husband didn't care for his voice but I think that may be because some men would only trust a woman's voice in a hypnosis situation. Excellent Job Trever Scott! Thank you.

This has helped me a great deal. I had to give a talk recently and was nervous about doing so. I listened to this c.d. for a week before I had to give my talk and ended up enjoying it instead of dreading it as I usually do. I personally found his voice very soothing.

My favorite character is Dietrich Bader, the next door neighbor. This is a perfect movie, a classic rewatchable good time along the lines of The Ref and Princess Bride and Goonies. This is the movie that I recommend without qualification to foreign students of English. This is also the best role of Jennifer Aniston's career.

This is is funny movie, but doesn't rise to the classic league of movies...the characters are extreme stereotypes of your typical cubical dwellers so common, esp. when the film was made. The movie's main character has to work with this pathetic cast of fellow office dweebs, and the end is a revenge fantasy... Not sure why the slow-mo parts are in the film at all. Add nothing imho.

I thought this movie was hilarious even before I started working in an office. In a twist of fate, I ended up working for a slightly less competent version of a Lumbergh, and now it's even MORE hilarious! I don't know what's worse, the boss giving you the same instructions 3 times (including 2 written forms) or the copy machine breaking down because it doesn't like yellow paper. Piece of trash. No way you cant relate to at least one thing in this movie! It is pure comedy AWESOMENESS!

I do not for the life of me understand all the hype surrounding this movie. Why does everyone love "Office Space" so much? There were a few times when I chuckled here and there, but overall this movie just is NOT funny. I do not recommend it.

Wow through a Plasma 42 inch and a Ps3 it looked amazing and is still hilarious the best part is I havent seen this movie in years and to see it this way was very pleasing, it just sucks I will have to buy these movies all over again but these blu ray versions are like watching a different movie

Sort of a real world Dilbert. All the things that we have to deal with are exaggerated. This includes the office characters. Getting out reports, overtime and downsizing. Current events mixed with old tales and office lure mix to create one of the best comedies around. This film along with the red Swingline stapler had achieved cult status. As I look around (and stand up) I can see all the personalities depicted in this movie. If anyone wanted to see a movie that mimics real life this one is it and maybe "Joe Versus the Volcano" (1990). This is much more real than "9 to 5" (1980). Just a moment while I expand my cube. (*&*%$#%$&*) There, now where was I? Oh yes, Jennifer Aniston shows her flash. It is interesting that the film was made in Austin and Dallas where I am writing this. It must be a sign on some sort. You will see the old story of skimming percentages of a cent off of transactions with a new twist. I have to go now the copier is calling! Marley and Me (Single-Disc Edition)

If they ever decided to make a live-action "Dilbert" movie, it might resemble "Office Space." There's a lot of the same bitter surreality infused in this hysterically funny office film by Mike Judge (of "Beavis & Butthead" fame), all about three rebellious office employees who have finally had enough. Filled with quirky characters and a hilarious employee rebellion, this is a movie for anyone who ever felt trapped in a soul-destroying job. Which is just about everybody. Peter (Ron Livingston) spends every day in a cubicle, doing pointless work under the thumb of his smarmy boss Bill Lumbergh (Gary Cole). His life is boring, and he doesn't even have the confidence to tell a waitress (Jennifer Aniston) that he likes her. Because layoffs are impending, Peter accompanies his controlling girlfriend to a hypnosis session, and is instructed to relax. Unfortunately, the hypnotist dies of a heart attack... while Peter is still under his hypnotic influence. And nobody snaps him out of it. The next morning, Peter wakes up happy and laid-back -- and determined to get out of his rotten job, and live fat and happy. He conspires with fiery Samir Nagheenanajar (Ajay Naidu) and the ill-named Michael Bolton (David Herman) -- two coworkers who are about to be axed -- to skim money off the company's assets with a secret computer virus. Only problem is, their scene is rapidly spinning out of control when the virus goes glitchy haywire -- and their scheme is threatened with exposure. "Office Space" started off as an early 90s animated skit, featuring the character of Milton. You know, that increasingly deranged employee who complains that "you took my stapler." This time, Milton is a minor character, although a pivotal one. The focus is mainly on the mellowed-out Peter and his wild scheme to profit the downtrodden employees of Initech -- sort of like a crazier version of "The Office." And Judge knows how to wring all the bitter comedy from this scenario. He creates a hysterical tangle of cubicle workers, layoffs and the most annoying boss in the history of film ("Yeeeeeeaaaahhhh... uhhhhhhh..."). There's a less interesting subplot about Peter's unstable relationship with the equally POed-about-her-job waitress, but the real draw here is all the corporate cheating and craziness. This brand of humor is twisted, down to the slow-motion, ghetto-style beating of the copier in the middle of a field, and Peter receiving a raise because he no longer cares if he gets fired. And of course, the dialogue is quietly insane ("Oh, and next Friday... is Hawaiian shirt day...") as the plot grows grows more and more tense... until you know someone has to snap. You can see who it is way in advance, but it's no less hilarious when it happens -- with disastrous consequences. The trio of lead characters are a riot -- there's Peter, whose newfound perspective about what is important in life is immensely entertaining. There's Samir, who can barely restrain his simmering rage at his rotten job, or his deep hatred for the copier. And there's Michael, who has a seething resentment that he has the same name as THAT sappy singer. As for Cole, he's utterly brilliant as a boss who is as endearing and appealing as a rake on a chalkboard. "Office Space" has become something of a deserving cult classic -- funny, strange, and sympathetic to the ants that toil in their cubicles. When you aren't laughing your butt off, you'll be cheering on the disgruntled salami-slicers.

Self-hypnosis has changed my life, and Glenn Harrold's CD's have TURBOCHARGED my hypnosis sessions. They work. I have suffered from anxiety and depression for most of my life. I tried meds, therapy, read tons of self-help books, and nothing helped. Then last spring I discovered hypnosis. I am literally being transformed. I am happy! I love life! My husband uses it also, and it has greatly improved his life as well. Read a book that explains why and how hypnosis works, like The Genie Within, by Harry W. Carpenter. Learn about your subconscious mind, then try the Glenn Harrold CD's. They work. They will change your life.

I am giving this four stars because I just starting using the CD. I have heard it three days and I have felt very positive. I have also asked my wife on my mood lately and she has noticed an improvement.

I absolutely love this audio CD! Glenn's voice is perfect for guiding you through the hypnosis experience. I listen to it at least 4x/week and each time it never fails that I fall into this deep relaxation and feel completely rejuvenated when I awake. Dayal

I have most of Glenn Harrold's CDs and they are an absolute must have for me. This particular one is excellent and I listen to it on the plane all the time as I travel alot. It is not only an excellent self-hypnosis CD, it is also very effective!

I love Glenn Harrold. His voice is so easy to listen too. Highly recommend any of his CDs.

I love this CD, and it has become my current favorite. Yes, Glenn's accent is a bit startling at first, but his voice is friendly and soothing, and I just LOVE the music! I wish he also would put out a CD of just the music (I believe it is his own composition). I love the musical notes sung for each chakra. The pace is just right, not too fast and not too slow. When I don't have much time, or feel very tired, I use the shorter meditation. The only problem is that it's so relaxing, it's easy to fall asleep during it. I find it very easy to visualize the chakras with this CD, although I can't say that I "feel" anything when I go from one chakra to the other. However, I feel very relaxed afterwards and my dreams have improved. This is probably due to meditation in general, but I do really like this meditation CD the best, and it encourages me to keep meditating. I like the fact that his visualizations are simple. Some guided meditation CDs are so full of complicated imagery suggestions, it becomes like mental acrobatics -- a bit too much at times. Even though I am a visual person and good at picturing things, I tend to feel mentally tired by all the imagery. Glenn's visualization suggestions are just right, and I like the affirmations and the fact that they repeat, first in one ear and then the other, which I have heard is useful in reaching both sides of the brain. Don't know how true this is, but it feels effective! Don't let the comments about Glenn's accent deter you from trying this CD. After the first minute or two, he will feel like a comforting friend!

I bought this CD after reading the reviews for it. Although I can meditate on my own, I like good quality guided meditations and music as a tool to create my meditation ambience. This is an exceptional CD that fits both those qualification. In addition, Glenn has a wonderful meditation voice - yes, there is such a voice. I also enjoyed the toning of the musical note representative of each chakra level. Please be careful coming out of the meditations - the voice and technique are a wonderful professional blend, and are hypnotic. I did not realize there was a count-back at first, and was light headed coming out of the meditation. The count-back will effectively return you to present-moment reality. This CD is good for a beginner, intermediate and advance disciple of meditation, and will offer something for each level of student. Big thumbs up. I would also suggest any CDs from the Monroe Institute and would consider Glenn's work on the same level, or at least as palatable as the Monroe audio CDs.

Of all the chakra meditation DVDs, CDs, and books I've purchased over the years, Glenn Harrold's is by far the very best. Absolutely wonderful.

I listen to this CD almost nightly. So far, I've had many visions where I see very clear, video-like scenes play out in front of me while I have my eyes closed. One scene, I saw an old town with one fast moving person and the view narrowing on that individual. Another one I saw three moving viking like ships swaying side to side. I believe my third eye has opened. Another time I had an out of body experience that lasted the duration of the second track. I floated to the top of the ceiling then floated down beyond my body. I opened my eyes and saw a room full of electric guitars and folding chairs. I meandered around the room and ended up in another place with Egyptian hieropglyphics and drawings on two walls and on the ceiling. I heard the CD counting down and I returned to my physical body.

If you're just starting to explore this arena, and you need guided imagery, this is an excellent c.d. Headphones are recommended and I would say they are a "must". Why? Because the full benefit of the c.d. is very diminished without them. This is a finely crafted, well executed and technically balanced production. Why only 4 stars then? I find the opening music and his accent irritating - but - you overcome those factors by focusing on what you purchased the c.d. for, and if you don't, then you are missing the point of buying it.

I'm a clinical psychologist and I had terrible IBS. I tried everything and did not tolerate the drugs well. This program rocks! I used it exactly as indicated and it made me feel a million times better. I can eat just about anything now and it also helped me feel more positive about life. Love it!

After hearing such glowing reviews on the Heather's Help for IBS webpage (where this audio set is often referred to as a "cure") and many stellar reviews on here, I tried this CD set out. My expectations were high, but there wasn't even a placebo effect for me! All these CDs did was give me some relaxation techniques, which can be a little helpful, but didn't solve the problem at all. I found Michael Mahoney's voice could get really irritating at times, and I LIKE british accents. I found that acupuncture and traditional chinese herbal medicine worked really well for me, with zero expectations of them working. If you're really stressed, and think that it might be contributing to your IBS, then give these CDs a try. Otherwise, its a huge (100 hours!) waste of time!!

Positive: I've been using the program for three weeks now, just before I go to bed. I've found the sessions very soothing--so much so that I have been unable to stay awake all the way through (on average, about 30 min). Per author, this is okay as your subconscious mind continues to take in the info. My IBS is very mild, so it is hard to comment on how the program has affected my symptoms. However, I generally feel less tense and am able to fall asleep easily and stay asleep, something that was a challenge for me off and on for quite some time. Negative: As some others have mentioned, although it is a 100-day program, there are only 5 sessions plus the Commentary Intro. Although I do not necessarily mind listening to the same session multiple times, I would have preferred more variety.

I haven't completed this 100 day course yet but I have been enjoying it. I'm more aware of when I tense up which makes it possible for me to calm down sooner and relax the muscles in my stomach.

I was actually pretty optimistic while starting on this program due to all the positive feedback written about it here on Amazon and other places on the web. However, I can not say that I have had any benefit from using it. My IBS is the same as before and my mood is actually even worse than before ... because in these recordings Mike Mahoney always talks about how I am supposed to start feeling better day by day, week by week and how I am gradualy learning to take control over my symptoms. He also talks about being able to live my life the way I want to live it etc ... However, none of that happened to me, and all I ended up with in the end was being very sad and dissapointed. I would happily pay tens of thousands of dollars for a treatment that would actually work, but this ... no further comments. I believe many of those who get anything out of this program benefits from the placebo effects ... which is extremely high among IBS sufferers.
