03/10/05 - I have resisted putting customer comments on the site up until now because it seemed sort of flaky to have a page of "testimonials." It always seemed that a money-back guarantee and word of mouth advertising was enough to make such a page unnecessary. However, I am now caving in to pressures from my bosses (my wife and my secretary) who tell me I should have such a page. I have not, however, kept track of all the positive feedback from customers. Though I may find a few (below), I am basically beginning from here, March, 2005. If you are a customer, please feel free to give me comments that I can add here if you have the time and inclination. - Dr. J.

I do like your tapes very much [Anti-Anger Attitude, A Tool to Aid With Panic and Fear, Who and How You Hope To Be, Self to Self Partnering]. You have a great voice for hypnosis. I have listened to your tapes at night before going to be and I have actually had some healing dreams afterward.

I am not very hypnotizable, but the tapes do help me to relax (I like to use them when I am wound up and want to relax so I can go to sleep). Playing the tapes regularly helps me to retain the wisdom which in turn positively influences my behavior over time. Based on my own experience I believe the tapes are profitable to all people, even those who like me do not tend to go into deep or even moderate hypnotic trance. Just hearing the affirmations and insights over and over again can lead to positive changes.

I just wanted to let you know how I am truly enjoying your CDs. I was listening to the CD, "Allowing Oneself to Get Past It," last night - I've listened to it several times, actually - and I find it very soothing. I don't listen to them often enough. I really liked the feel of the first tape [self to self partnering] especially with the sound of the plane in the background

I have begun listening to the tape "from cold to warm feet and fingers" I have started bio feed back to help me with my anxiety attacks and the therapist was amassed at how quickly I was able to warm my hands and raise my core temperature. I am pleased as well, no more freezing and shaking to warm up, I just utilize what I have learned.
thank you... :)

There is much I can say about the tapes I have chosen and how they have worked for me.
The "are we asleep yet, too?" tape has been awesome! I was told I had ADHD and this was a normal thing for people with ADHD. I don't know about you but I really do suffer and everything I do suffers including my sanity if I don't get any sleep. This is a well used tape. I used it regularly for a month and found I no longer needed it at all. I say it is well used because I lent it to my Dad and Mom and any one I know who has issues with sleeping well at nite. I wont give it up though. I may not need it now, but if I ever find my self not getting a good nites sleep I have the best sleeping pill ever.
The "performance 2" tape is by far the most used tape. I know it is intended to be used when relaxing and not doing anything, but I take it to the gym with me and use it there. I am sure it is not what the tape is intended for, but I use it to help me forget that other people are there. This way my self consciousness goes away and I can focus on why I am there. It also helps me get out of the mode of needing to exercise to just loose weight and just enjoy the healthy benefits of regular exercise. I uses this tape so much I woar it out and actually bought a second one. I don't know if I still need it, but when I miss a few days at the gym or just feel self conscious I grab my tape out of my locker and away I go
I like the "self to self partnering" tape and how I have become much more gentle with my self and recognizing my vast wealth of successes in my life. it is nice to recognize how my successes really do matter and I feel much better about my abilities when I allow my self to recognize that I truly am competent. I am beginning nursing school and I am sure I will succeed and fail all along the way, but I am confident that I will finish, now that I have gotten out of my own way.
"Healing tree 2" is always different each time I listen to it. It seems I hear how it fits into more aspects of my life with each listening. I have endured a bit of abuse in my lifetime and I am seeing another way to see these experiences, and feel as if I am growing in a mature and safe way, not changing or looking my self, but growing into my self.

I just wanted to say thank you. I ordered your self-partnering cd [self to self partnering] less than a month ago and the results have been amazing. One by one the negative voices are falling away and I feel better about myself than I ever have before. I can truly say that it has helped turn my life around and has given me confidence and helped me focus on what I truly want out of life. Thank you again (my wife thanks you too!)

I have really enjoyed your tapes/cd. I like the “style”. I find them comforting, and not bullying. I feel that they reinforce my inner strengths and act as an partner to relaxation and positive reinforcement. They make you take time to relax, and for an anxious person, that is what you need to do, so down and breathe. I have shared the CD’s with others who also found them to be helpful.
I think your tapes are positive reinforcements to our own inner strengths. I think they are a safe and comfortable way to heal and help our inner selves. I highly recommend them.

I'm thrilled with the "Diet" recording [to diet down right].... It's just what I was hoping for. Over the years, I've learned and developed a lot of positive coping tools and strategies. Some I use frequently and they're outstanding. The only "catch" is they're conscious techniques. Which is fine, but when in serious reaction it can be tough to stop and think rationally. In some situations anyway. Your approach alleviates this. I think your hypnosis results in "fluid change," because it's seamless and almost effortless. For now, my immediate concern is food choice and "mindless eating." Both of which already seem "fluidly" resolved.
PS- Your recorded enunciation was rich, smooth and clean. Overall, your voice has excellent deep tonal qualities and the mic you were using brought them out well. Kudos to QuiltWall Studios for a very complimentary recording. Between you and me, you have created alot of value, Dr. J. I can see that you put enormous time, energy, and caring into your site and your hypnosis recordings.... I think you're extremely cool.

Just a brief note to let you know what a big difference your head cleaner tape "performance 2" has made for me. It really has done the trick for me in many areas of my life including the one that I originally intended it for. Many thanks for producing something that helps people get more enjoyment out of their lives.

Thanks Doc, [my wife] is doing a world better. I ordered the performance 2 and Healing Tree 2 head-cleaners for her. The eating one [practical, optimal eating, too] is for me! I can't remember if your website had any testimonials, but if you wish one I would be more than happy to accommodate.

I got the tape really fast. Saturday. I have listened
to it and I find it quite impressive. It is a very
well put together hypnosis tape and I have listened to
tapes by many hypnotists who are supposed to be at the
top of the field (Richard Bandler, Paul Scheele, Mark
Cunningham, Glenn Harrold, Paul McKenna, Marshall
Sylver, Martin St. James, as well as some other lesser
known hypnotists/hypnotherapists) This is definitely
a great sounding tape and it put me very deeply into
hypnosis....I fell asleep part way through! I usually
am able to stay conscious throughout the entire
process. Well anyway I am looking forward to using
this tape over the next couple of months.

One thing that I like about your tapes, is that you zero in on some
problems that other tape makers glaze over. Almost everyone who
makes self hypnosis tapes has a 'self esteem tape.' I know, I own
several. And these are supposed to cover all sorts of problems and
I don't feel that they do. My favorite tape is Soothing Angst [now to how to soothe out angst] and I
recently ordered Self to Self Partnering. I feel that Soothing Angst
helps my anxiety and I feel that this tape is a real supportive element
for me.

We are successfully using your Two Voices [two voices to imagine] tape for our 8 year old with encopresis. We are now going on 10 straight days of clean and dry with daily potty success! Since I don't live in New York City and can't shout it from the balcony, I wanted to share our good news with someone! We are still prepared for setbacks, but we are definitely building a firm foundation of success for him to be proud of. He is still acting out on anger issues and I've noticed he has resumed pulling his hair at the crown of his head (a behavior we've seen in the past), but he's still listening to his tape and I see daily improvement in these areas and in his general attitude toward cooperation. Plus, the best news is....he's smiling again. We'd forgotten he has dimples. Thank you so much.

I really do find the tone of your voice and your delivery to be so soothing. I have already forwarded your website address to friends who I think would really enjoy and benefit from your products. I found the articles to be extremely interesting and helpful, as well. I will continue to recommend your site.

Recently I purchased "are we asleep yet, two?" The listening experience is fantastic. Still haven't got quite to the end of the tape during my several sessions with tape. At least I'm not aware if I've gotten to the end. I'm looking forward to spending some "head-cleaner" time with the next three of your tapes.

...Nightmares to Nice Dreams. I love it. It is is very very relaxing. In fact I like all three tapes that I just received from you. They are appropriate for where I am at this year. Your tapes are more like art than hypnosis.

I'm delighted. I listened to Self-To-Self [Partnering]three times the first day I received it in the mail. As the tape began, it was a strange sensation of feeling I was being given the best, intimate and useful information I had been needing for a long time. I used it fairly regularly for a month and the change in attitude was amazing. ... I feel now as if I am finished with drowning internally. Your tape set the ball in motion. I tell everyone who may be interested about your site.

Thanks for your tape. I passed my test. I was more confident and at ease taking the test. This is my third time taking the test. I'm glad your website came up when I desired hypnosis tapes.

Healing Tree 2 CD.... I was a bit agitated at first, like physically unable to relax at first, kind of just moving around
as if I couldn't get comfortable. But as it played on, I grew relaxed, and have found the CD
very relaxing and wonderful. The way you go on about the tree is cool and well, the only word I can think of to say at this time about it, is it "ministers" to me, what you say. In fact all 3 cds [To Be Comfortably Confident, Performance 2, Healing Tree 2]do. I just wanted you to know that. I know I
am strong, and your CDs are helping me to really live in a way that shows that I truly
believe that.

Performance 2 & A Tool To Aid With Panic and Fear -- I have been listening to these 2 CDs for several weeks now...I have found them to be very beneficial...They have enabled me to stay focused and calm during stressful working situations. Good job and thank you!

I've been listening to "self to self partnering" for several days now ... I've been under treatment for anxiety and depression for 8 years now and even with medication and therapy this is the first time the negative audio "tape" running in my head is quiet. Throughout the day I feel slightly "altered", maybe some people call it calm? But when I'm listening to the tape I begin to relax and zone out immediately at the sound of your voice.

I have found the hypnosis CDs to be both very professional and highly useful. They can be used multiple times and do not lose effectiveness over time and, in fact, the experience is different each time the CDs are used. I currently use several, including Healing Tree 2, Now to How to Soothe out Angst , and Are We Asleep Yet, Too?. They are very effective when dealing with anxiety issues and are a powerful adjunct to meditative techniques. The recordings are, in and of themselves, soothing which allows me to easily relax and let the hypnosis happen. The effects are somewhat subtle at first, but, with continued use, changes become apparent and appear to be lasting. Unlike other hypnosis recordings I have tried in the past, these are obviously constructed by someone with a sound knowledge of human psychology and sound knowledge of techniques which work. Thank you Dr. J.

I bought a couple of disks and then a third. They are all fantastic. I enjoy "relax relax" the most. I always feel so much calmer for the next couple of days. It has helped me greatly.
I used your self esteem disc ["self to self partnering"] just before I interviewed for my new job. I won't say your disc got me the job, but it did allow me to perform in the interviews exactly the way I wanted/needed to. I thank you for that.
Your products have helped me so much already, Thank you again,
