Roy Hunter is one of the most highly respected professional hypnotherapists of our time. As well as being a prominent author he also teaches professional hypnosis and advanced techniques for professionals and self hypnosis to groups and clients for both personal and professional motivation. His mentor was the late Charles Tebbets whose work still gives him inspiration and a firm foundation upon which to build in his own inimical way.
Master the Power of Self Hypnosis is the best book on self hypnosis out there today. The book is an excellent read as it is written by an expert communicator - clear, concise, informative and immensely readable as the author puts so much of himself into the book.
Many books are dry text books which one reads because one feels one ought to and one comes to the end of the reading with some relief and, very often, with as many questions as you have had answers! This book is written with such clarity and dynamic that it draws you into itself and takes you on an investigation into self-hypnosis that answers ones questions and gives the necessary confidence to use It an unparalleled way.
Whether you are a professional or a layman this book is for you. It can be clearly understood by all who read it as the author leaves no stone unturned. This is an honest work and his own use of personal anecdotes helps reinforce this honesty and immediacy. It is a must for anyone who uses or wishes to use hypnosis.
It was a delight to read a book which was entirely jargon-free. If anything needed to be explained then there were full explanations at every level. Every necessary step was explained fully so that one travelled through the book with confidence. Indeed the book`s clarity of content makes it one of the best practical guides that I have come across in 20 years of working in this field. The book is a truly masterful presentation of the fundamentals of self-hypnosis and of its associated techniques. This is a book that not only tells you what to change in order to change your own life in whatever way you desire, but actually tells you how to do it, step by step, point by point.
Within this book you learn the art and the power of self-hypnosis learning how to teach that most powerful part of you, the subconscious, to cooperate with your desires. The book reminds you that willpower will not work on its own. I have often said this to patients and have added that ones emotion and imagination is of more value than attempting to succeed with willpower alone. The author puts my thoughts into practice and shows you how to do just the same.
The empowerment exercises within this book are powerful, to say the least. They are fun to try out and they are powerful in their action. Throughout the book different empowerment exercises will be outlined for you to deal with such items as teaching relaxation, stress management, overcoming sleep problems. You are taught the vital yet often ignored skill of establishing clear priorities before you actually begin. Indeed, the author helps the reader to ensure that potential failure can be avoided by this clarity of preparation.
Of great interest is the section on creative daydreaming to stop smoking, lose weight, improve performance, etc. Prepare correctly, prioritise wisely, fine tune your use of language and learn the importance and relevance of affirmation, belief, expectancy and conviction and take on board the many suggestions the author makes and you will be in a position to journey on into the world of self-hypnosis and bring about changes such as you have not experienced before.
Here is the way ahead for you. I recommend it wholeheartedly to all who wish to gain the full benefit from self-hypnosis through which you WILL make the positive changes that you seek
Roy Hunter is one of the most gifted guides that I have come across. He writes with first-hand knowledge, deep understanding of the subject, conviction but also with undeniable humanity which helps make this book special!
This book receives my very highest endorsement. It is a book that no person interested in using self-hypnosis can afford to be without. It will not be a book on the shelf but on the desk as it will be a constantly used reference and inspiration.
