Book Review: A note of caution . . .
Summary: 3 Stars
I was looking for a hypnosis CD to help ease my sleepless nights, and I chose this one based solely on its high ratings on Amazon. In general, I feel like I'm pretty susceptible to hypnosis. If someone talks to me in soothing tones about floating blue orbs that emanate magical auras of sedation, I'm out like a light.
That said, I couldn't take more than five minutes of this woman without feeling agitated and unpleasantly alert. Why? I couldn't even focus on what she was actually saying because her voice was so abrasive. I mean, it's not a terrible voice for someone delivering a business presentation, but it's not the kind of voice that has any business hypnotizing a person to sleep.
I can't pinpoint the exact quality of her speech that makes it so unpleasant to me. It's not very gentle, for one thing. For another, she doesn't have that metrical lilt that most professional hypnotists use, the kind that lets you fall effortlessly under the spell of its rhythm. And third, while I'm not usually bothered by this, I suspect my distaste for her voice may have something to do with how distracting I found her slight regional accent.
So I'll caveat my criticism with a personal disclosure, which is that I grew up in the South, and my ears are particularly attuned to the vaguest hint of a Northern accent. It could be entirely possible (and probably is, based on the many high reviews) that most others aren't as sensitive to that accent and wouldn't find this woman's voice as distracting as I did.
But if, like me, you prefer a more neutral and calming voice to bid you adieu as you depart for dreamland, you might want to keep searching for a different hypnotist.
