Achieving a state of health is more than just a physical or chemical affair;

it requires engaging the mind. The mind directly controls your physiology,

often in surprising ways such as when a single thought causes you to blush or

drool (or both, depending on what you're thinking about). But that's just a

parlor trick. A far more practical application of mind-body medicine is found

in recruiting the mind to control blood pressure, stress hormones, immune

function, healing responses and other measurable markers of health or

performance.

Interestingly, your ability to heal yourself, or perform at a high level, or

achieve your ambitions, is largely determined by your beliefs. And those

beliefs are stored in a kind of neural-net software program running in your

head. The good news is that we can change those beliefs, reshaping them to

better

serve our interests. And one of the most effective ways to do that is

through _hypnosis_ (http://www.naturalnews.com/hypnosis.html) .

Several months ago, Michael Lovitch, the co-founder of _The Hypnosis

Network_ (http://www.hypnosisnetwork.com/) , was kind enough to send me a number

of

recorded hypnosis programs produced by his company. In the months that

followed, I listened to them all, including _Managing Stress and Anxiety_

(http://www.hypnosisnetwork.com/hypnosis/stress_anxiety.php) , _Core Inner

Strength_

(http://www.hypnosisnetwork.com/hypnosis/self_esteem.php) and _Productivity

Engineering_ (http://www.hypnosisnetwork.com/hypnosis/procrastination.php) . I

found each program to be very professionally produced and quite rewarding.

Evaluating audio hypnosis programs is a lot like eating at a salad bar. At

some _restaurants_ (http://www.naturalnews.com/restaurants.html) , the lettuce

is old and wilted, the dressing has been spilled everywhere, and bits of one

topping have scattered their way into the wrong bin. But at nicer

restaurants, the lettuce is crisp and cold, all the salad extras are well

organized and

the entire salad bar is so clean that you could, well, eat off it.

Like salad bars, hypnosis programs come in all varieties, and some are

better than others. I've listened to many programs over the years and have been

less than impressed with quite a few. Some hypnosis programs on the market have

poor audio quality that's so distracting, you can't focus on what's being

said. Others rush the induction, leaving you still buzzing from the day's

thoughts while trying to absorb the suggestions. And the worst programs don't

even

understand the importance of phrasing suggestions in a positive context, so

you'll end up with harmful suggestions like, " You will no longer feel terrible

about yourself. " (In order to process this statement, your subconscious mind

first has to imagine what it's like to feel terrible about yourself, which

is exactly what you don't want.)

But listening to the programs from the Hypnosis Network was like eating from

a gourmet salad bar. The audio quality was outstanding, the inductions were

effective, and the suggestions were extremely well planned and executed. It's

no surprise, really, since the Hypnosis Network hires some of the best

hypnosis experts in the business to script and record these programs. Each

hypnosis title features a different expert with a PhD in their respective field.

Some of the programs even come with accompanying materials that provide

additional information to your conscious mind. I found this to be an excellent

way to

absorb the information offered in each program.

For health, relationships, work performance and more

The Hypnosis Network offers an impressive selection of programs to choose

from. You'll find them all listed at _www.HypnosisNetwork.com_

(http://www.hypnosisnetwork.com/) . They cover the spectrum of _self

improvement_

(http://www.naturalnews.com/self_improvement.html) :

* Health and wellness

* Self-esteem, inner strength and courage

* Career performance, public speaking and test taking

* Eliminating stress and anxiety

* Succeeding with _weight loss_

(http://www.naturalnews.com/weight_loss.html) or quitting smoking

* Eliminating chronic pain and headaches

* Overcoming erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation and sexual

dysfunction

* Sports performance, injury recovery and sports pain management

* Child development programs

In all, it's an impressive collection of titles. Probably enough to keep you

busy for several months while you reprogram your subconscious mind through

the proven power of positive suggestion.

Do audio hypnosis programs really work?

The short answer is yes, they do. They can help reshape beliefs so that your

behavior shifts seem automatic and natural. With issues like weight loss,

for example, this can lead to an accelerating cycle of success, where the first

five pounds of weight loss encourage you to listen to the program even more,

which further supports your beliefs and behaviors that lead to even more

weight loss.

The main drawback to audio hypnosis is that the audio program cannot respond

to you. It can't observe your physiology like an in-person hypnotist would

do, nor can it alter the program according to what the hypnotist sees working

(or not working) with you at that particular moment. The advantage, though,

is that audio hypnosis programs are remarkably inexpensive compared to a live

hypnotist, and you can listen to them as many times as you want without

paying an additional fee.

There's also the convenience that you don't have to go anywhere, or make any

appointments, to experience the benefits of these hypnosis programs. To me,

this is a big deal, because I don't necessarily like going to somebody's

strange office, and sitting in a chair that smells like somebody else's perfume.

My home is my sanctuary, and I much prefer to experience hypnosis on my own

turf. But that's just me. You might prefer to get away from home so you're not

distracted by it, and so visiting hypnotists in person might work better for

you. I encourage you to experiment with what works best and go with that. You

may find completely different reasons for enjoying the many benefits of

hypnosis.

You're constantly being hypnotized without your knowledge

In answering the main question posed above, though, let me assure you that

hypnosis does indeed work quite effectively. In reality (which is a slippery

concept all by itself), we're all being hypnotized all the time, mostly

without our conscious awareness. Television advertising that attempts to

associate

a brand-name drug with positive images and emotions is a powerful form of

hypnosis. And it works, because it gets people to go to their doctor and ask

for

the drug by name.

Our _parents_ (http://www.naturalnews.com/parents.html) hypnotized us with

all sorts of messages (whether they realize it or not) when we were children.

As children, we didn't have the mental filters we carry as adults, and a lot

of what we heard from parents, siblings or authority figures went straight in

and became accepted as " fact " by our naive brains. Today, many of us still

operate on those " facts " even though they are patently false. And if you were

unlucky enough to have parents who hypnotized you with damaging statements

like, " You'll never amount to anything " then you may find extraordinary

benefits from reprogramming your beliefs and overwriting those old falsehoods

that

may have been holding you back before now.

Obesity and weight problems, in particular, often have their origins in self

image distortions formed during childhood without our conscious awareness.

When we lack self esteem, we often turn to food to overcome feelings of

despair, isolation or shame -- all of which might have been programmed into us

by

ignorant parents, teachers or siblings. Over time, the eating behavior

stemming from these self image distortions leads to _obesity_

(http://www.naturalnews.com/obesity.html) and diabetes, and while conventional

medicine says the

treatment for obesity is a patented chemical, the real core of the problem is

our self image. By reprogramming our beliefs about ourselves and reshaping

that self image, we can genuinely heal from the inside out, and our eating

behavior will follow in step.

Heal the mind, and the body will follow. But it requires recognizing the

programs playing in our own heads and reworking them to play positive messages

instead of messages that sabotage us.

You see, we're hypnotized all the time: by the press, our friends and

authority figures. But with these Hypnosis Network programs, you can take

control

over the suggestions being broadcast to your brain. Perhaps for the first time

in your life, you can experience a program of intentional, positive hypnosis

rather than the happenstance hypnosis taking place in society, most of which

is designed by profit-seeking corporations who want you to believe that you

need their products. The whole marketing of ADHD as a " disease, " for example,

is in many ways a massive hypnosis campaign designed to change peoples'

beliefs and behavior in a way that maximizes drug company profits.

But with the Hypnosis Network, you can put the power of belief and your

subconscious mind to work for you in a way that serves your interests. And

that's

a first for many people. Imagine a team of hypnotists working together to

make YOUR life better, who have the pure intention of helping you transform

yourself in the most positive, vibrant way possible! That's what you get when

you tap into these Hypnosis Network programs.

Experiment to see what works best for you

You may find you like some programs more than others, by the way. A lot of

this depends on your personal preference for voices and styles. I found I

didn't like the voice on one particular program, but that was probably because

it

reminded me of a nasty librarian I had the misfortune of meeting in grade

school. (I have a strange talent for remembering and identifying unique

qualities of the human voice.) That was my own negative association, but you'll

likely have a completely different take. In any case, they offer a one-year

satisfaction guarantee, so if you find a particular program isn't to your

liking,

you can return it and either get a refund or try a different program.

Overall, I give the Hypnosis Network five stars for offering outstanding

audio hypnosis programs at a fair price. I recommend them to everyone. And yes,

I really mean everyone. There's not a person alive who couldn't benefit from

more positive suggestions delivered through these audio programs. In thinking

about health, performance, confidence and other issues, we often tend to

forget just how large a role the subconscious mind really plays. And for many

people, exposure to some positive programming (done right) can make all the

difference in weight loss success, career achievement or sports performance. As

any professional athlete will tell you, 99 percent of the game is about

what's in your head anyway. Now, with the Hypnosis Network, you have an

opportunity to reprogram what's in your head, giving yourself positive,

supportive

messages in a format that YOU control. I can't imagine a nicer gift to give

yourself!

By the way, I was not paid anything by the Hypnosis Network to write this

review, nor do I earn anything from the sales of their products. I cover this

company (and its products) for one reason only: Because I believe it to be of

great value to you, the reader. Hypnosis is a powerful tool for self

transformation, and when I see a company that gets it right, I feel obliged to

spread

the word.
