Major medical journals are fi nally beginning to recognize hypnosis as a legitimate clinical tool, citing proof positive that it can help ease chronic pain, lessen the side effects of chemotherapy, counteract anxiety and sleep disorders, and more. On Heal Yourself with Medical Hypnosis, Dr. Andrew Weil joins Dr. Steven Gurgevich, a leading expert in mind-body medicine, to offer listeners a 2-CD session on how to use this amazing tool for personal healing. On Part One, Dr. Weil discusses the physiological mechanisms behind the mind-body connection, while Dr. Gurgevich demystifies the practice of hypnosis through a concise account of its history and important case studies. On Part Two, Dr. Gurgevich introduces listeners to four trance induction methods, including trance deepening and a full session of self-healing with hypnosis.

A Great Intro To Medical Hypnosis Leave it to Dr. Weil as a trusted source to open your mind and provide a great introduction to the concept of medical hypnosis. I was in a lot of pain last year and willing to try just about anything, so being a long-time fan of Dr. Weil’s work on other aspects of healthy eating and living, I figured, why not give it a try? Boy am I ever glad I did, because from the reassuring and valid points that Dr. Weil’s friend and colleague Dr. Steven Gurgevich made, it got me to actually try the sessions included in the audio. I surprised myself with how much I enjoyed them, and since then, searched out more of Dr. Gurgevich’s work and now have 5 of his own audios which have helped me improve to 90% better in the last few months I have been using them. Check out my favorites , , and…
Love It! I was skeptical of the whole hypnosis scene. I tried it a few times at nightclubs and there was no way I could be hypnotized. Last year I was treated for breast cancer, and although everything appears to be fine,I am still dealing with the anxiety of the whole ordeal. I have followed Dr. Weil’s advise for years and find him to be solid in his recommendations regarding alternative medicine. I am in the medical profession myself, so I have done some research in this area. I wouldn’t have even given this cd a second glance, but because of Dr. Weil’s endorsement, I gave it a whirl. Well, one month later, I am thrilled with the progress I have made. I can easily slip into the “trance” state without any real effort and let my subconscious do all the work. The side effects that I have been experiencing from the aromatase inhibitor drugs have all but vanished. It almost seems like cheating! Hypnosis seems like its on the fringe of medicine, but the proof is in the pudding. It certainly…
I listen to it every night! This is a great CD. I listen to it every night. I have owned it since February 2006. I recorded it to my Ipod and fall asleep to it. It’s the only way I can calm my mind after a hard day and get to sleep. When I wake in the middle of the night, I play it again and fall right to sleep. The segment called Progressive Body Relaxation is the best. It takes you step by step, in a progressive way to relax. I can get up when I want to and stop the process. When I travel, I take it with me. Normally I can’t sleep on planes but this takes me to a relaxed state and at times I get some nice rest. Dr. Gurgevich has a voice that is relaxing and calming. Each segment gets right to it and starts the session. After the introduction in the beginning of the CD you don’t hear alot of talk again about the benefits of hypnotism. I like that part because when I am ready to relax, I don’t want wasted minutes with someone trying to sell me on how great hynotism is or what it can do everytime I…
