As with any hypnosis product it really depends on your mind, and how open you are to it. Some people can't be hypnotized, and some people don't want to be hypnotized. Personally I have been hypnotized, and I have tried hypnosis cd's. IMHO I don't think anything helps as much as good old fashion time spent at the table! Hypnosis will not be your miracle cure, if it was then we all would be shooting lights out pool!
