1. Information on how Glenn's hypnosis recordings work...
On each of Glenn's recordings you will be guided into a state of complete mental and physical relaxation using the latest hypnotherapy techniques and soothing background sounds. These sounds are recorded in specific musical keys and frequencies which deepen the relaxation effect. There are also a number of 60 beats-per-minute sound effects that help to synchronise the left and right hemispheres of the brain, which in turn creates an extremely receptive learning state.

Once you are in this optimum learning state, you are you are giving a number of post hypnotic suggestions relating to the title of the recording. You are also instructed to repeat carefully worded affirmations. These affirmations are profoundly hypnotic and soothing, allowing you to absorb the phrases on a very deep level which helps to create new patterns of behaviour.

Some of Glenn�s recordings also include �pink noise� which is a natural sound similar to waves. The low frequencies (between 6 & 10hz) emitted by �pink noise� sounds synchronise with brainwaves and guide you into a mentally relaxed and creative state. At the end of the recordings, you will be gently brought back to full waking consciousness with a combination of suggestion and music. There are a number of positive subliminal messages embedded in the fade out music which maximise the benefits. Some of the newer recordings also offer an alternative �go to sleep� endings which are ideal for use at bedtime.

2. Repeating the affirmations
At the point on Glenn�s recordings where you are instructed to repeat affirmations, connect with positive feelings (e.g. happiness, joy, love), as this will help you absorb the affirmations on a very deep level. You don�t have to repeat the affirmations out loud if you prefer not to but do make a strong connection with them. Imagine that you are drawing the phrases deep inside you so that you embrace new patterns of behaviour relating to the title.

Each recording is completely safe and comes with a clear set of instructions. All affirmations and subliminal suggestions are clearly printed on the inside covers.

It is important to remember that you are being guided, so you will always be in full control of the whole process. If at anytime you want to stop, you just open your eyes and you will be wide awake.

Once you have bought your recording please feel free to email or write to us with details of your progress as we are always striving to improve the series where possible and your comments are valued.

3. How to use the recordings...
The recordings work in varying degrees and will be different for each individual. It is impossible to give an estimated time, but after a few listens you should begin to notice some positive changes. Sometimes the positive changes can be instant and dramatic. For other people it can be a gradual, subtle progression into a new pattern of behaviour over time.

You can listen to any title as often as you like and it is said that 21 days is an ideal length of time to change a pattern of behaviour. The key to absorbing hypnotic suggestion is compounding; the more you hear the suggestion the quicker your unconscious mind gets the message. You will then respond to the suggestion automatically in your every day life.

So it is best to listen to the recording on a daily basis initially, and continue until you have reached your goal or overcome the problem. You may even choose to continue listening indefinitely. With the Weight Loss title for example, you can continue to use the recording even after you reach your target weight, as it will re-enforce your determination to remain in control of your weight and keep you focused.

Once you have bought your title please feel free to email or write to us with details of your progress as we are always striving to improve the series where possible and your comments are valued.

4. Listening to more than one hypnosis title at a time...
It is probably best to listen to one title at a time to allow your mind to focus on one goal. However, some titles will work fine with others as the issues are closely related. For example, the Self-Esteem title will work fine in conjunction with the Think Positively, Self-Confidence, or even Weight Loss title. However, it is not be so good to listen to Smoking and Weight together as both are separate goals that need your full attention.

As for time span, it really depends on how you feel yourself. For example, if after listening to the weight title for 2 months you feel you have conquered the problem, then you can move on to another goal, although a top up listen every now and again is a good idea. If after this time you are still struggling with eating habits, then continue working with the title and perhaps seek additional one to one help from a good therapist.

5. Customised hypnosis recordings...
We are always working on new commercial titles covering an ever-expanding range of subjects. There is much time and care spent producing new titles so it is costly and time consuming to produce a personalised recording. However when we have to put a price on producing a one off, our usual quote is approximately �2,000 depending on what is required.

6. If you fall asleep listening to the recordings...
If you fall asleep listening to the recording but you still hear the count up at the end of the track, you have probably been in a deep trance throughout. In this state you will still be absorbing all the suggestions on an unconscious level. If you don't hear the count up at the end you have probably drifted into a deep sleep at some point. In this case you will probably only absorb the suggestions to the point where you went into a deeper sleep. If this is the case we suggest you listen at a time when you are not tired.

7. How the hypnosis DVDs/Videos work
(This only applies to the Glenn Harrold hypnotherapy DVDs/videos)
On each DVD/video, Glenn Harrold guides you into a deeply relaxed state of mental and physical relaxation. In this very receptive relaxed state, you are given a number of post hypnotic and direct suggestions.

The absorbing hypnotic visual imagery combined with the powerful hypnosis audio track amplifies the trance and therefore increases the absorption of the suggestions. There are also a number of background echoed affirmations, which pan from left to right across the stereo range. These deeply relaxing and powerful methods of delivering multiple suggestions simultaneously to the unconscious mind can facilitate positive changes quickly and efficiently.

The subliminal messages that flash up on the screen every now and again are on screen for 1/25th of a second. These phrases bypass your conscious awareness, and are absorbed and accepted unconditionally by your unconscious mind. You do not need to read these phrases.

At the end of the DVD/video you will be guided back to full consciousness.

The subliminal suggestions are printed on the cover of each DVD/video title.

8. How to use the hypnosis DVDs/videos
(This only applies to the Glenn Harrold hypnotherapy DVDs/videos)
You need to create a time and space where you can watch the DVD/video hypnotherapy session from start to finish. Each DVD/video will guide you into a hypnotic trance state and then bring you back to full waking consciousness at the end. It is important to watch and listen to the sessions in their entirety.

It is best to use the DVDs/videos at a quiet time when you will not be disturbed. If possible, listen through headphones so you will not be distrurbed and the suggestions will be integrated on a deep level. However this is not essential and normal TV or PC speakers will work just fine.

When you see the subliminal phrases (printed on back cover) flash on your screen for a split second, you do not need to consciously read them. In your relaxed state your unconscious mind will naturally absorb these affirmations. It is preferable that you do not attempt to read them.

It is recommended that you initially watch the individual DVDs/videos on a daily basis. Take a moment to focus consciously on what you want to achieve before you begin each session.

The DVDs/videos are completely safe and very effective when you follow all the instructions clearly.

Please Note: If you fall asleep before finish watching a DVD/video you will naturally awaken in your own time. If you are interrupted before the end just count up to 10 and affirm that you are awake and you will feel fine.

9. Technical issues with iPhone and iPad Apps...
If you have a techical issue issue with one of Glenn's iPhone or iPad apps, please email our App developers
i-mobilize at for a quick solution.

10. New versions and new titles...
Every so often Glenn will remix some of his existing hypnosis titles. Titles with new covers will have been recently re-recorded or remixed. The clinical hypnosis content of the recordings remains largely unchanged but the audio will typically have a new piece of intro or background music and the spoken word content will be remixed or occasionally re-recorded. This is always done with the aim of creating the best possible recordings with the most highly effective content.

We will be releasing a number of new Glenn Harrold CDs, Books and DVDs/videos this year as well as adding to the wonderful range of Calm For Kids CDs by Christiane Kerr, Sacred Light Angel Meditations by Jan Yoxall and Simple Truth Meditations by Lucinda Drayton.

11. Finding a good therapist/training organisations...
If you are looking for a therapist, The British School of Clinical Hypnosis have many practitioners throughout the UK. The organisation and the training are of the highest standard, although the quality of individuals can vary. We suggest you call a few locally, and look for someone who you feel comfortable with. Good therapy is all about dynamics between the therapist and client. Finding a good therapist who inspires you and who can get to the root of the problems is the key.

Another organisation called the APHP has therapists in the UK. These are well-qualified therapists who have organised their own group and have hand picked other therapists to join them. So on the whole they should be good.

14. What is Hypnosis?
Hypnosis is an altered state of consciousness. There are arguments for and against it being a �special� state but having hypnotized thousands of people in one to one situations I know this �special� state exists. It is true that suggestions can be given and acted upon in normal waking consciousness but suggestions are far more effective when delivered to a person in an altered state brought on by a hypnotic induction.

People sometimes shy away from hypnosis but often this is because they misunderstand what it actually is. Much of the misunderstanding of hypnosis comes from stage shows and the way that it is portrayed in the media. Stories about hypnosis only tend to make the news if there is a problem or if it is misused.
In reality hypnosis works very simply. In a professional one to one situation hypnosis is achieved by using various techniques to guide the client in to deeper levels of relaxation. It is often a gentle progression from waking consciousness into a deep level of mental and physical relaxation, rather than a flashy click of the fingers that you might see on TV or in stage shows.
When you are in a hypnotic state you will still be aware of your surroundings even as you drift into deeper states. It can sometimes feel as though very little is happening and that you can open your eyes at any time and be wide-awake. This is because being under hypnosis doesn�t feel unusual. It doesn�t create a special feeling and so people often don�t realize when they are under hypnosis.

Being in an altered state of consciousness or in a hypnotic trance is actually something you will experience naturally many times in your life. For example, just before you fall asleep each night and before you are fully awake in the morning you are in a trance state that everyone on the planet experiences. These morning and evening trance states are called the hypnogogic and hypnopompic states.

Daydreaming is another naturally occurring trance state that is familiar to all of us and one that is similar to being in a light state of hypnosis.
When you are in a deep level of mental and physical relaxation you become receptive to suggestions and accepting suggestions is the key to using hypnosis as a therapeutic tool. A post hypnotic suggestion is a suggestion given that will be acted upon at a later time. For example if a post-hypnotic suggestion is given that �as soon as your head touches the pillow each night, you will find it easy to go into a deep relaxing sleep.� When a suggestion like this is accepted by your unconscious mind the next time you go to bed and your head touches the pillow you will indeed find it easy to go to sleep.

We spend most of our time in our conscious thoughts and only sporadically tap into our unconscious mind when we daydream or get creative ideas. The only other time we spend in our unconscious thoughts is when we are sleeping, when our conscious mind has switched off. Learning to connect with your deep unconscious mind through hypnosis can help you in so many different ways to achieve goals, find your creativity, or overcome difficulties.

15. Information on Hypnotherapy...
What is hypnotherapy and will I lose control and do crazy things like I have seen on TV?

Hypnotherapy is one of the most groundbreaking therapies for facilitating profound change in people�s lives. Whether someone desires to quit smoking, lose weight, achieve success, improve their sleep, develop their confidence, or deal with childhood issues in an unintrusive way, hypnotherapy is a powerful way to get quick and amazing results.

It is an aid for personal development, problem resolution, and self-healing.

Hypnotherapy utilises the power of the unconscious mind. The unconscious mind is the setting for creativity, imagination, and human potential. It is the part of you that drives a car or walks to the shop even though your mind is wandering to other places. It is also the place where negative, limiting beliefs and old patterns are stored. This is why even when you desperately want to improve yourself; you just keep playing out that old, unfulfilling script.

Fortunately hypnosis can speak the language of this infinitely powerful, yet often draining part of the mind. With the use of language, communication, sound, or imagery, one is guided into a trance where the unconscious mind can be accessed.

In this state of deep relaxation, healing and transformation can easily take place. Because of this connection to the unconscious mind, you can break free from negative ways of thinking and being that have been keeping you hindered from your ultimate capacities. Our possibilities as human being are endless when the unconscious mind is skilfully tapped into and worked with.

The outdated picture of lying on a couch while someone dangles a clock above your face as you drift off to Neverland while the therapist has complete control over you is fortunately beginning to change as more people experience the benefits of this valuable therapy.

And most of us have seen the stage hypnotist make some guy run around mooing like a cow or doing some other ridiculous act. While this can be entertaining, it has nothing to do with hypnotherapy.

During a hypnotherapy session, you are in complete control. If you choose to wake up, you just open your eyes. No one is going to make you do anything against your will. You are fully conscious of your surroundings, and in many cases your senses are heightened.

Anyone can enjoy the results of hypnotherapy. It is really just an �accelerated meditation� to get us into a calm state so we can cope more efficiently and joyfully with life. And now, with modern technology, we don�t need to be reliant on a therapist to help us achieve our dreams. In fact we don�t even need to leave our own home. Just put on your headphones on a regular basis, and watch as the positive changes begin to take place.

16. A brief guide on how to use Self-Hypnosis
The following self hypnosis technique will help you to relax your mind and body in preparation for a good nights restful sleep. When you use self-hypnosis or you meditate you allow your mind to rest and recuperate. This technique is slightly longer than the others in this book and it will help you reach even deeper levels of mental and physical relaxation.
It will also work wonders in calming your mind and alleviating stress. If you are constantly going over problems in your mind, your thinking and judgement becomes clouded. This technique helps free you from these problems. Once you get the hang of it you will be amazed at how good you will feel in the morning.
Stop at this point and read the script through a few times until you know what to do and then practise this technique every day.
You will find that the more you practise self hypnosis, the deeper into trance you will go each time, and the better you will get at de-stressing your mind.

Preparing yourself

When you are lying down in bed and ready for sleep tell yourself silently that you are going to use self-hypnosis to go to sleep.
The basic breathing technique -
Close your eyes and begin to breathe very slowly and deeply in through your nose and out through your mouth. Make each circular breath long and deep, and at the top of your breath hold it for three seconds, and then count to five on every out-breath. As you breathe out imagine you are breathing away any nervous tension left in your body.
You can also say the word relax on every out-breath if you wish. Continue this breathing pattern ten or more times, or as long as it takes for you to feel completely relaxed.

The diaphragmatic breathing technique

Once you get the hang of the basic breathing technique you can add diaphragmatic breathing to the basic technique. So make sure that you breathe from your diaphragm (lower chest and stomach area) and not from the upper chest. Watch what happens to your body as you breathe. If you are breathing properly your stomach will go out as you breathe in, and will go in as you breathe out. This can take a little practice if you are unused to diaphragmatic breathing.

Clearing your mind

Allow your mind to go completely blank. Don�t worry if you still get unwanted thoughts drifting into your mind; tell yourself not to fight them, as they will soon drift away again. Every time you get an unwanted thought, imagine a large red stop sign. As soon as you see the red stop sign imagine the thought disappearing and your mind becoming clear.
Another thought-clearing technique is to imagine a large computer screen full of data that becomes blank by hitting a keypad. Imagine that by pressing a keypad you can clear your mind. Another method is to imagine you are looking up at the sky on a pleasant summer�s day. You notice a few small clouds that drift across the sky and then fade away. Eventually all of the clouds have drifted away and the sky is clear. Imagine your conscious thoughts are like clouds that fade away. Use whatever method works for you.

Relaxing your body

Now you can relax your body. Imagine every muscle from the top of your head to the tips of your toes completely relaxing. You can start at the top and systematically work your way down to your toes. Imagine your eyelids have become heavy and tired and any tension in your forehead is disappearing. All the muscles there are becoming loose and relaxed.
Continue this pattern and imagine all the muscles relaxing in your jaw, neck, shoulders, back, arms and legs. Imagine the relaxation spreading down through your body letting go of any tightness or tension in the muscles. You can visualise the muscles relaxing and spend extra time relaxing any part of your body that holds more tension. Allow the outside world to fade into the background and continue your journey into your inner world.

Utilizing the trance state with affirmations

When you have finished your body relaxation and you are completely relaxed from head to toe, you can affirm the following affirmations. It is important you only repeat these affirmations word for word as they are below. I�ll discuss affirmations in more detail later on.
When you affirm these affirmations imagine every part of you absorbing the phrases with real belief, and use your feelings and emotions to supercharge them so that every cell in your mind and body resonates with each positive affirmation.

I sleep easily at night

I feel deeply relaxed

I feel calm and centred

I love to sleep at night

At this point you can allow yourself to drift off in to a deep natural sleep from which you will awaken feeling refreshed.

Please note

Do not worry if, when you first practice self-hypnosis, you don�t think much happened. The more you practice the easier it becomes to switch off and go into trance. Just the fact that you laid in bed and centred yourself by closing your eyes and relaxing will have benefited you.

You will be surprised at how effective affirmations can be in even the lightest of trances. The power of the unconscious mind works in a very subtle way. The most important thing to remember is to enjoy the process and to have faith, because as with all things, the more you practice the better you become!
