“Great
read – worth looking at”
Mary-Lee Russell - Milton Keynes UK

“I
was most impressed with this material; clearly you have given
your book a great deal of thought. I particularly liked the
way you balanced the human-interest elements of this account
with touches of humour (for example, the ‘ginger cat’
incident). The explanation of your own depression helps to 'win
over' those who are cynical towards hypnotists; they are given
the opportunity to identify with you in a unique way, which
is a vital element.”
Trevor Harris - Torquay UK

“I thoroughly enjoyed the book. Looks like you could end
up a successful healer if you wanted to as you seem to understand
whats what more than most folk.”

“I'm
reading your book right now. I think you have really valuable
insights into the issue of hypnosis. But, my God, the numbers
of people who have been hurt and misled.”
Katie Dean - Durham NC USA

“I
absolutely LOVE your book. - As a true expose by such a formerly
renowned hypnotist, this hypnosis book is unique, fraught with
universal appeal. Not only is such a book a novelty, but it
is destined to become one of the more controversial and entertaining
works among seekers of truth in the twenty first century."

Well
the book is totally amazing!! I love it so much and thanks a
million, I think its so well put together. I already burnt the
dinner once cos I was reading it to Michael my partner, in the
back of the car while he was cleaning it. It’s brilliant.
I'm not finished reading it yet but its gripping stuff!! I’d
say I will have to read it again cos there is a lot to take
in. Michael can’t get over it. Your a genius!!

Fantastic
book. I really enjoyed it.
Timely advice for me as I was considering seeing a hypnotherapist,
wasn't really aware of the dangers - thanks.
Had quite a few ah ha moments, the biggest one being with the
way you were sold on the hypnotist course originally. I believe
practically every technique you mention is employed by the more
shady internet marketing seminar gurus around these days as
I have experienced similar sales processes first hand.
It
was interesting to read about your spiritual experiences and
the Rosicrucians and I liked the metaphors for health relative
to the parts of the body.
Recently,
I have begun studying a course by C.C. Zain called the Light
of Egypt and in an amazing piece of synchronicity, a teacher
of that philosophy recommended meditation over hypnotic therapy
to me just in the last week without having much opportunity
to go into why, so I am really glad I found your material.
Was
also interested in the psychic faculties people were experiencing,
people you describe as trance mediums.... the Light of Egypt
course I mention also advises against this kind of mediumship
describing it as feeling ESP whereas they do advocate developing
what they call intellectual ESP. Do you have any more insights
into this or any other book recommendations?
Please
keep me informed of any other hypnosis books you plan to write.
Warm
Regards,
Dean
