Working for me
I have never used this type of product before, only had it for 4 days and used each night. I had previously been unable to stay asleep, last night I went through and was awoken by the alarm. I was also having to attend a training course, which I was dreading, but again felt much more positive after a couple of sessions with the audio. I think this is being more effective than reading a book, but guess they are both re-enforcing the same messages. As a self-help option feels like a safe option, and feels personal. I also like the introductory explanations.

guided relaxation and mindfulness mediation and I have to say I feel as though I have made my first step into becoming a happier
Hi, just wanting to say that I have nearly done my first week of listening to Mark's cds. I have 4 cds, overcome anxiety, overcome depression, guided relaxation and mindfulness mediation and I have to say I feel as though I have made my first step into becoming a happier person with myself. I have suffered with depression and anxiety what feels like all my life, I take medicine and I do visualization mediation (lapsed) can't seem to grasp the controlled breathing mediation, anyway I spend a lot of time at home, personal reasons, and I just felt I wasn't getting anywhere with controlling my depression and I was in this deep well of negativity and couldn't find a way out. Right, the point of this review is how good Mark's cds are, I listen to overcome depression during the day then mindfulness mediation at night, then the next day I listen to overcome anxiety during the day and relaxation at night. I did wonder if 4 different cds is too much but it seems to be working for me and I don't even get worked up when I can't do the day cd for some reason, major step for me. I am going to this system for a few weeks, then chose my favourite cds for daily use and the others every now and again, well that is my plan. The main thing I enjoy about these cds is, it sounds as though he is in the room with you, you are not alone in this, there is someone helping you. Also I know Mark is selling his cds but he also sends you attachments to read to get the best out the cds and asks you if you have any problems to let him know, which I will be doing soon for some advice. For me Mark's cds is money well spent.

Fantastic hypnosis CD
I ordered this a few years ago, and couldn't find it when I was suffering from anxiety and panic attacks, so have re-ordered it. Mark's self-hypnosis CDs are absolutely fantastic - and I particularly like the fact that there are two versions on each CD, one for the daytime, and one for the evening/nighttime so you can choose how you feel when you have finished the sessions (i.e. alert for the daytime or relaxed for the evening). I have used a few of his CDs over the years and have recommended them to friends at times as well as my daughter when she was struggling. Not only are his CDs fantastic, Mark was incredibly helpful himself when I asked whether it was possible to get the MP3 / App while I was waiting for delivery. Cannot recommend these enough if you want to help yourself.

OVERCOME ANXIETY AND PANIC ATTACKS CD
I think this cd is very relaxing - in this cd there are 3 tracks: the first one last about 17 minutes and here you find out: what causes anxiety and panic attacks, why you get them, how different parts of the brain react when you become anxious and how they are responsible for the symptoms you get -like being sweaty etc. The first track is explained very clearly and anyone would find it easy to understand. I think you would have to listen to the first track before you listen to the hypnotherapy sessions ,because you would need to understand about what anxiety is before you go ahead and resolve the problem with hypnosis. The next two tracks are the hypnotherapy sessions which last 30 minutes each: the first one is for daytime use and the last one is to use just before bedtime as it eases you into sleep after- which is great. I have used this cd for a couple of weeks now and I haven't been able to stay awake from start to finish -ever, but I 've noticed that when I'm at work I respond to stressful situations with more calm now- I work in a very busy office /reception desk - and my breathing is more relaxed. Mark Bowden has a very calm soothing voice which eases you into relaxation. I recommend this cd to anyone with anxiety related problems or people who need more calm in their lives- but you do need to use the cd regularly- not just once

Very disappointed
Quite disappointed with this CD.I found the voice on the CD very monotonous instead of relaxing, I ended up not using this CD more than 3 times as the tone became quite irritating and was doing the opposite to its intended purpose. I bought a few of these CDs and they were all virtually the same narrative in the same irritating voice, This is not to say that other people may benefit but personally I found all the CDs unhelpful.

Try it! You have nothing to lose and so much to gain
I listened to this hypnosis cd for the first time two days ago and must say that It did help relax me and took me off to a brighter happier world, if only for half an hour or so. Day two was yesterday and day three is today. I am going to take time out every day for some "me" time and allow Mark Bowden to work his magic on me and hope I can finally start to see some light at the end of the tunnel. It's been a very long road indeed and it seems from the other reviews/comments on here, I am not alone.Having suffered from terrible panic attacks and anxiety for the last 6 years or so, I will try anything! I really think that this can help and once I am used to the daytime sessions, I will add the nightime session, to help me drift off to sleep. From a scale of 1 (lowest mood) to 10 (highest/happiest mood) I would say I am on number 1 (rock bottom). I am now working towards number 2 and with Marks help I hope that my panic attacks will be a thing of the past!YoursMiss hopeful!

I bought this for a friend & it's really helped her!
I bought this CD for a friend who is suffering from severe anxiety and she's informed me that it's really helping her to both cope and sleep. That's all anyone can ask for so what more can I say, except the CD is a great price and arrived even earlier than expected. Really pleased especially on behalf of my friend.
