Transform Any Diet from Impossible to Achievable with the Power of Your Mind-Body Connection

What’s missing from the hundreds of diets on the market to help us achieve healthier bodies? "The most important element," teaches Dr. Steven Gurgevich, "is not in the body—but in your mind." As a key member of Dr. Andrew Weil’s physician’s training program, Dr. Gurgevich has brought hypnosis to the forefront of modern medicine. With The Self-Hypnosis Diet, he shows that anyone can use medical hypnosis to achieve long-term success in shifting our appetites to healthier foods and reaching our desired weight. With 3 CDs of instruction for using hypnosis to reduce your appetite, increase your metabolism, remove emotional barriers, and more—plus an "emergency" session to instantly deal with cravings.

Summary: The ONLY Diet Aid You Will Need
Comment: I absolutely LOVE this set of CDs!!! In approaching my own weight loss, I took the "buckshot" approach and bought every highly recommended book or CD I could find (many of them are rated 5 stars on Amazon). This set is the best - by far. It has helped me to completely turn around my attitudes and ideas about weight loss. It has helped me to EASILY make changes that were previously impossible (no sugar or flour) and make me look forward to exercise. The result is EASY weight loss and much better health. Thank you, Steven Gurgevitch!

Summary: If You Believe, It Will Work
Comment: I have lost 12 pounds in the first 2 weeks. After giving birth at middle age, when my body is resistant to weight loss, this has been a miracle. This product has given me the motivation to eat healthier smaller portions and to exercise. If you commit yourself to taking these CDs seriously, you will see results.

Summary: It's working!
Comment: I find the author's voice actually quite soothing to listen to. I have the Audible audiobook (no CDs, just one big file) and I do wish that each hypnosis session was a separate track. I went through the audiobook via iTunes and wrote down the time when each hypnosis session begins. I printed it out and keep it nearby so I can fast forward to the specific session that I want to listen to. I hope this will help out anyone else with the program as an Audible file. (I tried to post this on the Audible website but I keep getting an error message.)

Summary: Gurgevich
Comment: Gurvevich has a smooth, assuring voice; and he teaches you how you can control your own mind. No one but you can hypnotize you. He doesn't control your mind; but, he teaches you how to be in better control of your 'self.'

Summary: Change comes from within... Self-awareness awaits!
Comment: Dr. Gurgevich knows what he is doing when it comes to hypnosis for weight loss. While I didn't have the problem that a lot of the reviewers had with his voice, I agree that the CD quality and production values could have been improved. I prefer his other book The Self-Hypnosis Diet: Use The Power Of Your Mind to Reach Your Perfect Weight.

If you're a woman looking to lose weight, I'd also recommend looking into Body Esteem: Weight Loss Through Self-Discovery (includes 2 Audio CDs). For the same price you get two CD's and a workbook. Sherri Dawson's audio programs are wonderful, accompanied by sounds of nature and relaxing music.

It's all about what works for you. The bottom line is I needed to look inside of me for the answer to my weight struggle rather than quick fix diets and pills. Find a book/audio program that is relaxing to listen to and helps you develop the inner path to self-awareness and happiness.
