As the title indicates, this is a great way to get started in self hypnosis. The author writes with great knowledge of the subject and is interested in using hypnosis for the good of his reader. I found it leaving me with a desire to learn more about hypnosis. The only downfall with this book is that it seems to give the reader the routines instead of teaching how to make routines for yourself. Still, I have read it more than once and would highly recommend it to any one who is interested in getting started in self hypnosis. A GREAT book for beginners.

I found this book easy to read, and easier to follow. It was wonderful to be able to put the techniques into practice as I learned them. If you are looking for a hands on guide to hypnosis, this is the book. It not only teaches you what hypnosis is, but exactly how to apply it to help others, and better yourself. For the first time in my life, I was relaxed in the dentist's chair.

Hypnosis for Beginners is an excellent book for anyone wishing to learn more about self-hypnosis and the hypnosis of others. It includes complete scripts on regression, self-regression, self-hypnotism, and a full six session script for weight loss, teaching you routines for induction and deep relaxation that can be used for any purpose you desire. Hewitt breaks every session into routines which can be modified to meet your specific needs. The author thoroughly explains the state of hypnosis, many useful applications of it, and includes a full chapter of suggestions you can use to broaden your mind and improve yourself in many ways, all worded in an easy-to-read fashion. I have read this book several times and have found it extremely useful. Anyone interested in hypnosis, especially those who wish to begin using it to enhance the lives of themselves and others, should consider this book a must.

If you know absolutely nothing about psychic abilities - or you're sceptical about them - this little book could serve as a solid introduction. It deals with the power of positive thinking, self-hypnosis and other topics in Hewitt's trademark no-nonsense, "everyone can do it" manner.
However, the book's level is VERY basic and, regardless of its price, it's not worth the money if you are interested in learning a lot about mind power. Get Psychic Development For Beginners instead: it's way more about the same thing and it even has the same examples that are in this book (My guess is that Truth About Mind Power is a "demo version" of PDFB).

This book is of a low standard with no specific content. It goes of track, constantly losing the plot and not giving you the information you boughtit for in the first place. The only reason i gave it two stars instead of one is because i have read worse.
