I am SO DISAPPOINTED. I had waited eagerly for this to arrive. Chances are, they will pull this off the board before anyone has a chance to respond. How the heck can a language major, or perhaps anyone else, listen to THAT VOICE mispronunciate words, like escalator as escULATOR, or suggestions as sugESTIONS? Pretty hard to take that in stride and "relaxe" and get "hypnotized" and the da*ned guy talks too much - you just get into repeating his "mantra" and his freaking voice intrudes. Oh, by the way, the inner text says it takes7-28 days to take effect. Excuse me, but get someone who speaks American English properly!
Let the ocean and the seagulls talk. Don't intrude on inner meditation with "VERY NICE". SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP. I've listened to the first 2 CDs and my hopes were so set up today when they arrived. THEN he starts with analogies to stairs, ESCULATORS and elevators to get you to deeper levels of hypnosis. Hypnosis my a$$. Go ahead, pull this off the board - but for $98 I am going to try to have my say. Who here hasn't had a bad experience with stairs (they must go on forever like the Eiffel Tower which I never climbed but that kind of climb isn't relaxing, is it?), he wants you to relate to stairs that RELAX you. So I tried three times with my indoor and outdoor (through the garden and planted with creepint thyme ane pinkS - VERY RELAXING - BUT ONLY EIGHT OF THEM) stairs. And then when you reach the bottom you get on a downward escUlator. Very relaxing - NOT when the word aggravates you. The second CD includes references not only to the escUlator but to elevators. Uh, excuse me, but has anyone else from a big city been in a big elevator in a tall building that actually FELL? I have. You probably have, too. Not a good picture. Why could they not choose as analogies a walk around a meadow with flowers, a walk along the seashore, fill in the blank whatever you want - something besides up and down thangs that most of us have had a bad experience with? ANYTHING WITH YOUR FEET SOLIDLY ON THE GROUND - that is why we're here, isn't it? Cuz our feet are NOT solidly planted on the ground?
Well, I had my say and I doubt any of you will ever see it. I will probly get booted off the board forever, which is a darned shame, because there is SO MUCH GOOD HERE.
Best and good bye
