Smooth & Relaxing Audio, October 19, 2004
This review is from: Relieve Stress and Anxiety: Subliminal Persuasion/Self-Hypnosis (Audio Cassette)
Barnie's voice along with the background gently relaxes me & I have listened to it so much that I am ordering a new one. The background is the perfect blance of ocean waves, soft piano, & flowing wind insturments. Barnie's voice is smooth, gentle, yet keeps my attention. I use it in the car, home, & at bedtime. I know different people have different likes, but time & again friends & family have agreed "this is an excellent recording".

A classic for those stressed or having trouble sleeping!, October 27, 2005
This review is from: Relieve Stress and Anxiety: Subliminal Persuasion/Self-Hypnosis (Audio Cassette)
I bought my first copy of this tape when I was living in the suburbs of Chicago working in downtown, communting and working in a high-stress job. Turns out I also have horrible chronic insomnia. Barrie's Voice can usually do what three full doses of ANY sleeping drug on the market can't do ----- from Chloral Hydrate then to Lunesta now. It could put me to sleep!! I helped with the daytime stress and anxiety that ran rampant in my life when I really had little time for therapy or even eating a proper dinner! :) I am SO glad that I found this tape. This tape has moved with me from leaving my fiance and prosecuting him as a felony stalker, helped me find a new job, move cross country, move again to another state, find a good mate, find out I have a permanent and disabling illness and help get me through labor and delivery of a 8 lb preemie child, who is now, 7+ years later the light of my life, but brings his own set of stresses. My tape is quite worn out and after having bought what I thought was an identical tape for a friend, I listened to theirs, and it had different music on the daytime side. I liked the original, problably just because it was familiar, but I held on to my ancient tape for dear life. Now, 15 years later, I am looking for a way to get it on CD or mp3 or something that will be more durable and transportable than a cassette player!!! My tape has been carefully preserved but on it's second case, and I fear that it will break in the new future rendering the tape destroyed. Additionally, it's getting harder to find a casette player which was once ubiquitous, a la iPod nowdays. I guess we need to get Barrie into the 21st century!!
One side note, this is not the only Barrie Konicov tape I bought -- I also tried the weight reduction one and that one was not as helpful. The daughter of a dietician and now diabetic, I realized that the idea of not eating at all once a week was not an option for me. However, the music and many of the general suggestions in that tape for raising one's self esteem are quite good -= enough for me to replace the tape if I can't find my other one.
