"Mind and Body Tone-up"
David Botsford
|
David Botsford, a clinical hypno-therapist, has produced a series of CD
audio-books intended to help an individual via self-hypnosis. This particular
one combines baroque music with various techniques for improving one's
mind and body. David's dulcet tones both relax and keep you paying
attention throughout this three-part workout. The CD is not meant to be
listened to all in one go, at least after the first time, and each work-out can
be used separately at your leisure. While I cannot say whether or not this
is truly effective I can tell you that is a great way to relax and be refreshed
both in mind and body. I certainly felt a difference each time I used this
CD. The last technique (word) Connections, I found most useful for
determining one's state of mind. It is rather interesting, if one lets oneself
go, what words one's mind responds with. I found it most effective when
used with an iPod while lying down on one's bed. The elimination of
background noise makes concentrating on David's instructions much easier. I have to admit to
skepticism about this product but I plan to use this rather often as a valuable tool in maintaining equilibrium in this bizarre
thing called my life. If you have any interest in self-hypnosis then David's
CD is a great place to start.

"Eat Less, Lose Weight for Men"
David Botsford
|
David Botsford, a clinical hypnotherapist, has produced a series of CD
audio-books intended to help an individual via self-hypnosis. This particular
one combines baroque music with various techniques to encourage weight
loss and health. David's dulcet tones both relax and keep you paying
attention throughout this workout. The CD is not meant to be listened to all
in one go, as is it a 2-CD set, at least after the first time, and each work-out can be used separately at your leisure. I am not sure what effect it will
have on my girth, but the logic behind this collection makes far more
sense than most diets. I suspect that while one might lose weight as fast
as one can on a normal diet, David's method will ensure the weight stays
off. It is rather interesting, if one lets oneself go, how one responds to the
various things on this CD. I found it most effective when used with an iPod
while lying down on one's bed. The elimination of background noise makes
concentrating on David's instructions much easier. As with his "Mind and
Body Tone-Up", David makes the process as easy as possible.
