Self-esteem Affirmations: Motivational Affirmations for Building Confidence and Recognizing Self-worth

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Health- Family and Lifestyle
by: Louise L. Hay

September 29, 2003
This is a great CD. First side is Louise talking the affirmations and the other side is subliminal with music. I enjoyed it all and I play it every night before I go to bed. It has made a significant difference as I am more positive and confident within myself than I have ever been in a long time. I am looking forward to trying out some of Louises other cds. You won't be disappointed with your purchase so enjoy!!

The Secret

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Health- Family and Lifestyle
by: Rhonda Byrne

January 02, 2007
The Secret is an outward introduction and explanation of how we think on the inside becomes what we experience on the outside, because what we think we mirror and attract. With this aim, the book hits the mark.

If you are getting into personal development you will find the contents very easy to read, with superb explanations. The whole thing is gentle, encouraging, informative and uplifting.

People who have advanced and aligned themselves will find it does not give any new depth of knowledge, actual practice, or reference ordinary people who have achieved true creation and expansion; I will offer this advancement to you soon. As far as the book is concerned, it is a mirror, mirror on the wall image and introduction ... Read More:

Complete Relaxation (Divinity)

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Health- Family and Lifestyle
by: Glenn Harrold

2000-01
I'm sure the theory behind this CD is great, its very well put together, and yes, it probably will work for many people.
But I'm afraid Glenn Harrold's accent quite simply drives me mad.
If you're happy being lulled into a trance by a voice that sounds like one of the cast of East Enders, go ahead and invest - but as a Northerner, this just doesn't work for me at all :o(

Guided Mindfulness Meditation (Guided Mindfulness)

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Health- Family and Lifestyle
by: Jon Kabat-Zinn

October 24, 2005
The previous reviewer seems to be referring to another CD by Jon Kabat-Zinn. This CD set has 4 CD's, Bodyscan Meditation, Mindful Yoga, Sitting Meditation and Mindful Yoga 2. This CD forms the basis of the 8 week Mindfulness course developed by Jon Kabat Zinn and adapted by Mark Williams and others to run in the UK. The Bodyscan and the Sitting Meditation are the ones I use the most so far they form the bedrock for Mindfulness as put forward by Jon Kabat Zinn. I use them regularly and learn something about myself and Mindfulness every time I listen to the CD's. Jon Kabat-Zinn is the best teacher of Mindfulness I have found he talks total sense backed up by a scientific background and years of running courses on Mindfulness in hospitals and medical centres across ...

Deep Sleep (Diviniti)

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Health- Family and Lifestyle
by: Glenn Harrold

January 07, 2001
Something about this man's voice really grates; a strong London/Southern accent and none of the soothing qualities I'd expect in a hypnotist. At one point he just keeps saying 'go to sleep, go to sleep' like a slightly irritated parent with a toddler. I keep trying it cos I am desperate to sleep, but usually have to get up and switch it off half way through cos I can't bear it!

Lose Weight Now

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Health- Family and Lifestyle
by: Glenn Harrold

September 01, 2004
I have tried hypnosis CDs previously (Paul McKenna) without results or significant effects so when i stumbled accross Glenn Harrolds CD i thought id have one last go with a different hypnotherapist.
The results have been better than i could have wished, i lost 6 pounds in around 10 days and have kept the weight off too!
My weight is going down slowly and steadily and i think about food in a totally different way now.
I would recommend listening to any of Harrolds CDs once a week so as to keep your mind focused on your goals, it works better this way.

Mindfulness for Beginners

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Health- Family and Lifestyle
by: Jon Kabat-Zinn

August 31, 2006
I wanted to provide a review as a counter-balance to the other, more positive reviews.
I am currently reading 'Full Catastrophe Living' and purchased the CD to help me practice meditation. To be honest, I wish I'd stuck to just the book! Jon seems like a lovely, compassionate man but I find him incredibly annoying!
I tried the 'eating meditation' first and could not stop myself from giggling everytime he said the word 'raisin'! I love the New York accent but, unfortunately, I do not find it relaxing. His constant repetition, particularly of the words 'moment...by moment...by moment...by moment...by moment' (you get the picture!) is irritating beyond belief. A lot of the time I just wsished he'd shut up and leave me to it! I suspect Jon likes the sound of his own ... Read More:

Learn How to Think Positively

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Health- Family and Lifestyle
by: Glenn Harrold

2000-01
Ive never used a hypnotherapy c.d. before so i didn't know what to expect but this was great I've used it basically everyday for 2 weeks and i saw a big improvement in my mood and outlook. the reason i didn't give full marks is because you have to keep listening to it everyday for it to keep working (I missed a day and my mood dropped) but perhaps after a few weeks this is not necessary I'll wait and see.
