Deep Sleep

Customer Reviews

I'm missing out on the "hypnotic echoed affirmations" without the headphones, but at least I won't accidentally strangle myself in my sleep.

One thing that might keep you awake initially is the hypnotherapist Glenn Harrold's incredible Cockney accent. Maybe I've watched "My Fair Lady" one too many times, but when I initially started listening to "Deep Sleep Every Night," I kept expecting Henry Higgins to cut in with, "My dear man, the rain in Spain stays mainly on...etc."

An annoying intrusion (not Henry Higgins!) that might wake you up after you've fallen asleep is the beginning of the second track, "Lucid Dreams for Problem Solving." I believe track two was originally a separate tape, and Mr. Harrold reverts back to his normal speaking voice when the track begins. He's jolted me awake a couple of times, but I've always gone back to sleep as he reverts to his sonorous, repetitive murmurings.

The total CD running time is forty-three minutes, and I haven't stayed away through the whole thing, yet. There's nothing too mysterious about it: Mr. Harrold starts out with controlled breathing exercises, then onto suggestions about relaxing various parts of the body from head to toes, then a soothing, repetitious murmur about the conscious mind versus the unconscious mind. This is where I always fall asleep--until the second track begins.

If you have problems falling asleep, you might want to give this CD a try. It seems to be working for me.
