4.0 out of 5 stars
works on many levels, July 19, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Brainwave Journey (Audio CD)
After just one listen to these tapes, I can feel something shifting on deeper levels. I definitely feel more calm, and a sense of overall peace. The music and the sounds that accompany it are very relaxing, though not in a typical new-agey kind of way. The guided visualizations are a bit unusual, but I found them to match the style of the music. A man's voice is used, and I found that it gave the directions a forceful feel. Somewhat like 2001's Hal at times. Trippy and spacey. They actually use sounds recorded from space.

Don't Miss the Boat!, January 19, 2004
This review is from: Brainwave Journey (Audio CD)
I believe some of the previous reviewers have missed the boat in understanding these CD's. They are for the purpose of self-hypnosis. That "irritating patter" of voice is designed to implant positive concepts deep in the core of your subconscious to assist you in life. But you have to be able to "let go" in order for it to work. If all you hear is the patter, you're not allowing it to work. If you want relaxation and rejuvenation, Thompson's Brainwave Suite is excellent. But if you want to make changes in your life, Brainwave Journey can really help. Since I've been listening to Dr. Thompson's works, I am no longer stressed out and angry in traffic; I'm more effective at work and calmer at home.

Strange, but effective insomnia aid., August 20, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Brainwave Journey (Audio CD)
I bought this boxed set on a somewhat desperate whim during the last trimester of a pregnancy that featured intense insomnia. I'd had this problem before with a previous gestation, but had effective relief with some childbirth hypnosis tapes that I can't find on the net anymore. So, I tried this boxed set hoping it would be relaxing, soothing, and encourage sleep. Well, it's very effective for that purpose. It's very difficult to stay awake during the first (spoken) section. However, the voice on the CD is very strange and changes enough that you "unrelax" and think..."boy, that's really weird." Of the four CD's the "Body" CD seems to be the least corny and effective. There does seem to be a lasting relaxation effect, but I can't really say that I've noticed any substantial changes. OK to try, but you may want to start with something cheaper.
