"Wordy and intellectual. Commands are in the future tense, "You're going to make changes.""

I just find the hypnosis to lack impact, and it often pulls me out of trance whenever he says something jarring like "when you decide to start continuing to allow your body to choose to relax." What?? Notice all of the stacked passive verbs. If you've already got us in a trance, just say, "Relax." It would be a much smoother ride down to trancesylvania. Or every time he tries to say, "You're mine." instead of "..your mind." I feel manipulated when he says that and it instantly puts me on guard and resistant.

The unconscious mind understands simple language, like a child, understands symbols and imagery. If you want to make an impression on the unconscious mind, you don't use 20 abstract words to convey your message when you can convey it in 2 or 3 words.

"...open your mind up… to the changes that you are now…...ready for them!"

The above is in the hypnosis track. He's trying to mix Ross Jeffries covert hypnosis idea, where you embed commands into your everyday language, with overt hypnosis where you induce a trance, then issue commands or suggestions. I believe this is a fail on both accounts. If you were to say that in conversation, of course it fails in the overt conversation. The idea is to make the sentence/statement make sense BOTH overtly and covertly. In the above example, the above sentence makes no sense overtly, and it could have more impact if he smoothly stated, "You are ready for the changes in your life." We're already hypnotized, so why make the command so unclear? At best, the subject will have to work out what Hypnotica was trying to suggest, and then go, "Oh, that was clever."

"Perhaps you may be more aware of some things than you were before. Perhaps you can feel certain sensations, and thoughts, and you can allow yourself to become more aware of certain things in a variety of different ways. You can relax more quickly than you may have seen before."

I would describe the above as unnecessarily verbose and vague. Also the last bit, "you can relax more quickly than you may have seen before," is worded poorly. Instead, I would have liked the hypnotist to be more specific in his suggestions, such as, for example, "You can feel the weight of your hands," instead of not directing my mind to any 'sensation' specifically.

"And it’s nice to know that you don’t have to give just too much effort to bother making the time to experience a letting go in your own way within your own time now."

I can hear the influence of Ross Jeffries in the above, and it's wording is just weird and hard to follow.

Also, I think a couple of the affirmations, for example, in track 4 of the 2nd CD, should be worded differently.
They are:
"You are a positive individual who sees the problems ONLY as opportunities." "You use negative emotions ONLY as building blocks for a more positive future." I think the above affirmations would be much more effective and positive if you remove the word "ONLY."

For example, I think they would appeal more to the subconscious mind if worded like this:
"When you encounter a problem, you see an opportunity."
"You have the power to make changes."
"You can release your fear."
"You live in a safe world."
"You are rising above thoughts that make your heart angry or afraid."

Does not work. I did all the exercises over and over and all the meditations and I am still not confident around attractive women. In fact it has made me worse around women. You should not use this system. It could cause more mental damage than you have already.
