As Natural as Breathing

"Hypnosis is as natural as breathing. You naturally make contact with your subconscious mind all the time. ~Victoria Wizell
Victoria Wizell is a Certified Master Hypnotherapist with a beautiful voice and a positive attitude to life. She has studied personal growth concepts and has incorporated her knowledge into a variety of meditations.
She helps you develop a skill that will allow you to relax. I listened to this CD at night, although I was surprised to read it should be listened to at the same time very morning for 30 days. It seems Track 2 could be used for the morning if you enjoy going back to sleep after the alarm goes off. Track 3 and 4 could be used when you want to fall asleep and stay asleep for a longer time.
Track 1: Introduction - An explanation of how to use this CD.
Track 2: Restorative Sleep - Music plays in the background as Victoria provides thoughts to lead you into a calm state so you can rest peacefully. Use this track when you want to wake up after the session.
Track 3: Go To Sleep - As I'm trying to type here, I'm feeling very, very sleepy. It is almost impossible to listen to this without wanting to climb into bed. This is the track that helped me sink into my warm bed and drift into a happy sleep. Victoria encourages you to breathe deeply and relax completely. Slowly you sink into a wonderful "trance" which just seems to mean sinking into relaxation.
Track 4: Deep Sleep - Deep breathing exercises. I was asleep before this track began, but if you need more time to relax, this track focuses on your heart beating calmly and your cells healing as energy flows through your body in this new restful state.
The first few times I tried to review this CD, I fell into a blissful sleep. Apparently the results can be seen in as little as one day if you listen to this at night. I'd highly recommend this CD for the evening, especially if you have been having trouble sleeping or find you are not sleeping as deeply as you could be and feel tired during the day.
I'm also listening to The Stress Management Workshop. Victoria Wizell also has a Self-Hypnosis Step-by-Step CD ROM with a 30-minute Hypnosis Session and testimonials.

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR....

"and buy this cd! I have been using this disc for three nights in a row with much success. I typically have trouble going to sleep and then staying asleep. The first track I tried was Deep Sleep (4) and I was out before the program finished. Track 3 Go to Sleep was effective but seems more of an exercise program you would commit to. Finally track 2 Restorative Sleep provide just that. So far I have slept sound and awakened refreshed and renewed. You can go to www.hyptalk.com if you can't get them through Amazon. It is a purchase worth making."
Not so happy with the results....

"I've been using the CD for about two weeks now and so far no success. It does tell you to give it time to work by using it morning and night for several weeks. My chief complaint is that there's no instruction in the case about which tracks to use, how long each track is, etc... I also find the warning about copy right protection at the beginning of the CD annoying. If you set the CD to repeat (and since I'm never asleep by the end I do) it takes you out of the rhythm of trying to relax. The first track is supposed to put you to sleep and wake you up. That wasn't really my goal. I want to sleep. That's why I bought this. If you skip to what you think is the second track it turns out it's really the part of track 1 that wakes you back up. I haven't given up yet and I wasn't expecting a quick solution, but I'm starting to wonder if it will work."
