This came highly recommended during hypnotherapy training. There is a lot of content and ideas that can be developed for years to come. I continue to integrate ideas into scripts almost a year after purchasing the book.

This is a wonderful book. It's worth it for the scripts. It's worth it for the introductory material.

The scripts can be used verbatim if you like. Some are quite wonderful. I usually rework them or even just find myself using elements from what I've read spontaneously during session. So this book will help you whether you use it only for specific reference or leaf through the parts of interest to you without a specific upcoming session in mind.

I have both the bound book and the kindle edition. The bound book is quite large and heavy, so the Kindle edition is a lot more portable!

This book provides helpful metaphors and scripts, but I feel there are not enough to choose from. I think more selections are needed for clinicians. After a few sessions, on let's say anxiety, there are relatively few or none to select, particulary those that may fit one's patient.

Scripts for everything, but not many induction scripts. It is actually an anthology with scripts from many authors. An excellent resource for clinicians that should also be appreciated by anyone practing any form of hypnosis, such as self-hypnosis, which is my application.

This book is a staple. Get past the price if you're ready to have a constant resource at your fingertips. I make these scripts my own by tailoring and altering them for each client. They give you a great framework to help many people heal.

5.0 out of 5 stars While I am not into using scripts
Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2012

You have to start somewhere to get ideas. This book puts down a good foundation covering many uses for hypnosis. It is a big book and both beginners and those more advanced get a nice selection of scripts to mix and match. You can start with one script and and cross over to another for the middle and then another to bring a client out of hypnosis.
I haven't used the book in years, but it give it 5 stars because the authors thoughtfulness and effort to cover so much territory is definitive
