Product Description
Hypnosis is a proven technique that allows people to reprogram their subconscious to change unwanted behaviors. Most books on self-hypnosis require the reader to memorize or record scripts, then put the book aside while they do their hypnosis work. But Instant Self-Hypnosis is the only self-hypnosis book that allows you to hypnotize yourself as you read, with your eyes wide open, without putting down the book.
The author's fail-proof method allows you to put yourself into a hypnotic state and then use that state to improve your life in myriad ways. And because the hypnotic state is induced while you read, you remain aware of your surroundings and can bring yourself back to normal consciousness slowly and gently, using the instructions provided.

 Powerful Approach to Hypnosis July 23, 2008
Admittedly, I bought this book at a discount store. As the book is written well, I finished reading it in less than two days and started using the hypnotic scripts at once. I was a little timid going in because I wasn't sure what to expect. My first experience was positive. I actually felt lightly hypnotized. After three days, I already sense a subtle change in my own sense of confidence and personal power. Most of all, I'm completely convinced that I can be hypnotized with my eyes open, even while reading. This book includeds a section describing hypnosis, a section explaining how to use the book and then a compilation of 35 hypnotic scritps (everything from weight loss to improving your memory to building your confidence, and more). With practice and repitition, I believe almost anyone can use this book to induce a trance and make positive changes in their life over time.
 An interesting take on hypnosis July 23, 2008
A very interesting book. I can't say that it worked particularly well for me, but when doing the first part you do fall into a bit of a trance, which is pretty neat. Some of the claims of the book seem far-fetched, but I was convinced that hypnosis was real after reading the first part of the book. It's true...you do fall into a trance when reading a book, watching a film, or even listening to music. Interesting ideas, and it may work for you if you do in frequently enough. If you like messing around with your mind, by all means pick it up.
 interesante July 8, 2008
bueno no lo eh puesto en practica, pero es bastante bueno, me quito muchas ieas falsas de lo que era el verdadero hipnotismo y bueno ya hice la primera parte yme gusto, hay que abrir un poco la mente para nosotros al hacer los ejercicios pongamos nuestro cerebro con mas voluntad de abrirse, ya lo lei todo, y ya voy a empezar los ejercicios,
pero queria opinar porque hasta ahora excelente, y asi no resulten los ejercicios aprendi una realidad del hipnotismo que no sabia.
It works for getting rid of bad habits July 3, 2008

This is an excellent self-help book. I have now over 2 months without biting and destroying my nails. I had been biting my nails since I was a child, but I do not remember when it started. It probably was when I was 4-5 years old. The thing is that I do not remember me having healthy nails, and I do not remember me without biting my nails. When I became an adult, biting my nails in public was embarrasing, so I started quietly destroying the flesh around my nails,and the nails while I was doing anything, like watching TV, driving, talking, etc. My nails were so destroyed that I always was embarrased of showing them, and always was trying to hide them from others. I had tried many thins to get rid of this habit, psycology books which give a method to follow, other meditation methods using affirmations, but nothing worked. Never ever, had been able to leave my naisl alone for even a day. With these other methods, perhaps I was able to leave, at least partially, alone my nails for one day, but the urge to bite/destroy them was so powerful that I could not resist touching them for a longer period of time. When I was really nervous for something, my nails were bleeding, and several times I lost some of them. ( because of infection). This is for you to have an idea of how stubborn was this habit. I always wanted and desired with all my heart not to have this habit, but simply could not get rid of it. I followed the instructions on this book, and did the script for "End fingernail biting" on page 90, for 15 days in a row, and to my surprise I was able not to touch/bite my nails during this time, even though the urge to do it was strong at sometimes. But was able to resist the temptation. Then I did another script, that I created following the instructions in the book for another thing I needed, but as soon I finished with this other goal, I repeated the script for fingernail biting for another 15 days in a row. I am so happy and surprised that I almost cannot believe that this is happening, that I have over 2 months now without touching my nails. For the first time in my life I have been able to cut and trim my nails. But some of them have suffered too much damage that still do not look good, and are slowly healing and recovering. For you to have an idea of the lenght of time I have been biting/destroying my nails, I am in the 40's. So I have been biting/destroying my nails for over 30 years. The method of this book really works, and it has many useful scripts to follow for other goals to achieve. In addition it gives a method to write your own scripts to achieve anything you want or need. (help with your subconscions mind). Highly recommended.
A necessary Tool for Self-Development May 27, 2008

I `coincidently' found Instant Self-Hypnosis - How to Hypnotize Yourself With Your Eyes Open(2004) by Forbes Robbins Blair while reading about states of awareness experienced during creative writing. My initial interest in his book was his story of how he discovered his own induced state of trance by accident. Many therapists have told me since, that it is common to enter a heightened sense of awareness while working with clients, but Forbes was entering trance by just writing inductions. He stumbled across this realization by preparing for an upcoming client. This was different than anything else I had heard about. Further, Forbes' `symptoms' of his hypnotic state were almost identical to what I experience when writing and I am `in the flow'. His book provides inductions, scripts and templates as well as an overview for how to reach your unconscious mind through simply reading aloud or writing that which you want to achieve. I recommend this book to all of my students and I refer those whom I coach to use it as a tool for their bag of tricks in personal development.
