I've used hypnosis before to stop smoking, so I know it works for me. I wanted to use it this time to help me address some bad eating habits. I called Positive Changes to schedule a 'free 30-minute' consultation and went in the next day. After an hour of emotional manipulation, and reviewing everything in my life that was wrong with my weight and my past approaches to dieting, I was ""accepted"" as a participant and asked to commit on the spot to a 9-month, $2100+ program. \r

While the program is probably works well for many people, they way the consultant went about making the sale completely turned me off. I would rather have been convinced of the value by hearing specifics of the program, the training the hypnotists receive, the quality of the recorded materials, etc. A business that uses high-pressure sales tactics to secure clients is a red flag to me. If it's such a good product/service, it will be just as good tomorrow or next week or next month. \r

In the end, hypnosis works as well as you practice it. I'm sure I can find a credentialed hypnotherapist to work with one-on-one equally successfully, and probably for much less money.
