Welcome to the review page

Thank you

Hi Paul,

I just want to thank you for doing this. I have major problems with stress and anxiety and I discovered this site 2 days ago. It is already helping me and making it easy for me to keep a relaxation regimen, which is the only way I know of to really improve my health, but I didn't have the resources before. I could not afford to pay for anything like this. You are doing a wonderful thing here. Thank you so much.

Liz

Response: Thank you Liz! There is a lot of benefit in regular deep relaxation. This is one of the reasons why I like hypnotherapy so much, as it involves relaxation as part of the process. I hope as time passes and your relaxation regimen, that things get better your you :) Take care, Paul.

Permanent results

Hi, Paul,
I wrote a few months ago about how much the weight loss/insomnia session was helping. I honestly had a different relationship to food. I just wanted to get back to you to let you know that I have lost over 21 lbs. I am back to my high school weight! And I don't need to listen very often any more. The way I feel about food now is simply ingrained in me. So thank you again so much for what you do here, and for anyone reading this, all I can say is that this has changed my life.

Response: Hi Marcy, thank you so much for sharing that :) I am so happy for you, and well done on the 21 lbs weight loss! It sounds like you have a more comfortable and healthier relationship with food which has many benefits beyond the physical weight loss.... but it must be nice to be back at your high school weight! Take care, Paul

Medication Withdrawal

Hello Paul,I had probably the worst period of my life last week, with absolutely horrendous withdrawal symptoms from swine flu medication. I am 59, a company director, and NOT prone to overstatement, but really thought I was losing my mind. My sleep has been destroyed, and through exhaustion and rolling irrational anxiety attacks I have been a real mess. In the wee small hours of pacing the downstairs of my house, using what little concentration I possessed, I stumbled across you on You Tube. Your tapes have helped me greatly to stabilize and having used motivational hypnotherapy in the past I would wholeheartedly recommend the quality of your work unreservedly. I am 7 days now post medication, and it affected me so badly I still have some irrational fight or flight reactions to day to day scenarios that previously went unnoticed. Which of your tapes addresses claustrophobia?

Very best regards and thanks
Rob

Response: Hi Rob,
Sorry to hear about everything you have been through. Thank you for sharing that here :) I\'m glad things are improving and I\'m also glad the hypnotherapy sessions have helped. In regards to claustrophobia, there is a session here called \'safe and motivation\' (click on \'safe\' on the top menu bar of this website). It perhaps a little bit of an unusual title, but the aim of it is to feel safe and connected to a safe place inside you, while at the same time being motivated to be in situations which were previously stressful. I hope it helps. Also I hope you make a complete recovery. Take care, Paul

EXTREMELY THANKFUL

Hi Paul
I am a mother of five, medium frame. After having my first 4 kids it was easy to lose the weight and go back to my normal 145 lbs. When pregnant with my baby boy i gained about 50 lbs and felt very anxious. I lost about 25 in the first five months but after that I couldn't stop eatting and even though I really wanted to get my self to excercise my body would not follow. The more I didn't do what I needed to do the hungrier I was. I came across your videos on you tube about three months ago and I started with the three weightloss, continued with the confidence one and then the safe and motivation. The second day after listening to the first hypnothrapy I noticed a change in the amount of food i was eating. I still listen to them about twice a week.
You have given me the motivation I was looking for. I now exercise everyday. I am only 8 lbs from reaching my goal. I feel so grateful I found you and I am sure my loved ones too. If mommy is happy, everyone is happy. Thank you again, much LOVE!!! I recomend this to everyone I know.

Response: Well done!! And thank you so much for sharing that :) I am so happy for you, and I\'m glad the sessions have helped you to get to only 8lbs from your goal. I\'m sure you\'ll get there. I hope you feel good about yourself too... and it sounds like you do :) Good luck and take care, Paul

Worth the time

So firstly sorry for the long rambling I get easily carried away but just for a quick review - Amazing, Love it. Try it.

Sleep, I had no idea what it was half the time, studying Psychology (Alevel) I was aware of WHAT it was but I was having little experiance with it. Sleepless nights and early morning were stripping away any life I once had enjoyed. I felt hopeless I'd tried everything even spending the little money I had as a child on 'natural remedies' pills and positons and old wives tales.

So I really cannot thank you Paul more. I got my life back and to this day I still use the recordings on nights I'm struggling or times I am stressed, It is worth the time take a listen and you wont look back.

I'm 18 years old now and recommened these sessions to everyone I meet at university who give any indication of strugglin with sleep. Taking a Computing course there is quite a few of them lol.

Thank you.

Response: Thank you. And good luck with your studies :)

briliant

i have been using the sleep one really helps its the only thing that makes me sleep, have you any videos for weight gain? i eat constantly and cant seem to put on weight

Response: Thanks Megan. I am afraid I do not have any sessions for weight gain, just weight loss. However I would get it checked with your doctor just to make sure there is not an underlying cause. Thanks for your comment.

Hamster on a wheel -sleep

I had learned self hypnosis decades ago from Dr. Wallace LaBaw, who taught the boys at my hemophilia camp. However, over the years I had not continued to hone my skill.
Now, my son facing serious inhibitors, my stress is miles high and sleep is more of a problem than ever before.

When I tried to use my old standby, I could not quieten my mind, the intrusive thoughts were like hamsters running on a wheel in my brain.

I tried different guided sleep meditations on youtube, but none gave me that gentle, easy induction I needed and so longed for and remembered.

Then I found yours. Your voice, your words, your tempo simply relaxed me so that it took over a week to even hear the end of the session.

But the unexpected value for me is that now, knowing i have your induction to turn to, is that it has so reduced the anxiety I faced even getting into bed. My fear of not being able to sleep was that great.

Words can not express my gratitude for this.

Response: Thank you.

I've found the sessions on this site really helpful, especially the insomnia one. As a student I am pretty much limited to free resources and most of those available online don't work for me - the ones here do, so thank you.

Response: Thank you.

Sleepy

Frist off I have to LMAO, due to the box I had to check off to conferm that I am a HUMAN.. lol.
Any how, I\'ve been listening to the weight loss/sleep session for about a week for about a week. I have noticed some difference in my eating habits, I fill full faster and I stop eating when I am full.
I am still having some issuse with sleep. I seem to be falling a sleep at night, do not fill rested the next day. I don\'t know why this is happening. I am wondering if you have any suggrestions that might help me with this problem. :-/

Thank you, Rachel

Response: Hi Rachel,

Thanks for the feedback. I am glad you like the checkbox! I am also happy for you in that you have noticed some positive changes in your eating habits. I hope that continues:)

With regards to the issue of falling to sleep ok, and not feeling rested the next day, I don\'t have a simple answer. It can depend on many things. For example certain medication, alcohol, respiratory problems like sleep apnoea, anaemia, etc can make you feel tired the next day. It would be good to discuss it with your doctor, just in case there is an underlying condition which can be treated.

I hope that helps in some way.

Take care, Paul

Worth every minute

I\'m a pretty suggestible person so I\'ve never had trouble with hypnosis. From my own experience before coming here it\'s wonderful and it works really well for a lot of things. The key to fixing many of our problems is through the mind.

I came across the videos on this site and used them, and I was thoroughly impressed at the diversity and effectiveness of them. I highly recommend this site and its hypnotherapy sessions. If only it was more popular and had more advertising! Keep the videos and the content coming. It works.

Response: Thank you.

Paul,

I stumbled across your videos on youtube and I am so ever grateful for doing so. Your voice is so soothing and so healing in itself. Thank you for your encouraging words and kindness. I look forward to listening to all your guided meditations/hypnosis videos.

Response: Thank you.

Thank you!

Hey Paul.... I\'ve recently come across your hypnotherapy videos on Youtube and I am so incredibly thankful for having done so. I\'m 18 years old, and have struggled with social anxiety and esteem issues for my entire life. I don\'t personally condone the use of prescription/conventional forms of medication for myself (mainly because I feel like in my situation I am more than capable of over-coming this myself without it.) I was constantly looking for different methods to try and over-come my condition but nothing was working... *UNTIL* the idea of hypnotherapy struck me one day. Needless to say, your videos are greatly benefitting me in so many ways, and I listen to them every night before I go to bed, and every following morning before I head off to school. I\'ve noticed an improvement in my confidence, and positivity. I\'m finally feeling like myself again, and I don\'t know how to thank you enough to be honest... but you have my utmost gratitude! Thank you, thank you, thank you! X

Ps. I did have one thing I wasn\'t quite clear on though.... There are 12 videos/sessions, but I am unsure about whether I should be listening to each individual session for one consecutive week at a time? An email or some sort of response would be greatly appreciated, as I want to get the most out of these sessions :-)

Thanks again man!

cheers!

Response: Hi Grace,
Thank you for your kind words, and thank you to everyone else who has posted here:)
In regards to the 12 sessions for social anxiety, ideally aim to listen to one session for one week, so your mind has time to focus on the theme/suggestions in that session during the week. However, after the 12 weeks, it would be fine to listen to whichever session you prefer to, and mix the order up, and listen to several different ones in the same week. Sometimes you when you listen to the same session but at a different time in your life, you get a different benefit - it seems your mind picks up on different things depending on where you are at the moment. I hope that helps in some way, and I wish you well on your journey:)
Paul

This is amazing

I have had trouble going to sleep for many years most nights ill only get 3 to 4 hours of sleep if I\'m lucky. Yesterday I went on YouTube and found the video of the insomnia hypnosis session so I tried it last night and I fell asleep before it ended. I woke up feeling amazing like I can accomplish anything today. I told my mom and some friends all ready about this and they want to try it. Thank you so much for making these video session you have no idea how good it feels to have a goodnight sleep after so many years of getting barely any. Thank you so much.

Response: Thank you.

Integrity and skill....

Having done hundreds of hours of hypnosis over the course of my life, I have never came across anyone with more integrity and skill than Dr Paul Ogilvie.

The fact that hundreds of thousands of people around the World use Dr Paul to help them live the life they desire is no accident...

Thanks to Dr Paul\'s help, I am living the life of my dreams and I wholeheartedly recommend his support and service, whilst at the same time commending you for having the courage to begin creating the change which helps you live your life to the full and as a result, support those around you to do the same.

Warm wishes and good luck,
Robert

Response: Thank you.

Excellent

I'm listening to the Confidence CD, I am starting a new job soon. In my previous job I was bullied by 2 women who picked up on every little things I did, I felt like I was under a microscope. This has knocked my confidence in my ability to do my job properly.
I've just started listening to this CD and find this so soothing that I visualise myself in my new workplace carrying out old and new tasks with new found confidence, I feel very calm and happy about it. I will continue listening during the weekdays. I am so thankful to you for making this, this may have just saved my career! Thank you.

Response: Thank you.

My happy place

I've been listening to the weight loss/sleep session for about a week, and I love it! I so much love the images. I look forward to going to bed and going to the happy places you describe. But even more, I like the fact that, by golly, I really am feeling a much different relation to food. I also now have no trouble falling asleep. As a matter of fact, last night as I was listening, I didn't realize I had fallen asleep. I suddenly realized that my favorite image was almost over! I had slept through it! I am American, so I also find your accent charming and your voice soothing. Thank you so very much!

Response: Thank you.

Wow! I sleep really good now

Hi! I started listening to the weight-loss & sleep session, goingto add the confidence & motivation sets for nigt time in with those next week, afer my 7 days is up to see what happens. U say u can listen whenever u eed reinforcement, well, my whole family thinks I'm a failure, so I will use it a lot for reinforcement. I noticed my appetite is a lot more diminished & I don't constantly feel hungry or sleepy during the day, I slept so good the last few nights, I love the imagery in them when I'm semi-concious when I hear them, it's really kinda cool! I love ur voice, u could make a great story-reader for Books on tape. I will write another review about the other versions. Oh, what is the "Safe" videos about? I'm a victim of something not real cool & I thk it has effected me some, been told I am damaged goods. I also will listen to the Social Anxiety ones, I've just been downloading all the MP3's so I have them when I need them. Sorry to ramble, ur videos so far are the best!

Response: Thanks, and thanks to everyone who has posted a review here. I\'m very glad the sessions are helping:) The safe and motivation session is about feeling safe while you do something that used to cause you anxiety/fear in the past, or doing something that you fear may cause you anxiety/stress in the future. It fits in well with the social anxiety sessions, and it also helps in other areas too.

AMAZING

I weighed 168lbs. and I was miserable. I've lost 11lbs in 9 weeks and sleep like a baby every night. Dr. Ogilvie's voice is the last one I hear every night and I love it. I've never done so well with a diet without pills in my life. You've made a true believer out of me.

Response: Thank you.

THANK YOU!!

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! I am new to the whole hypnotherapy thing but I am truly my own worst enemy so actually going to the BASE of my fears & insecurities (my subconcious mind) seems like the only way out of this "prison" I lock myself in!! I have fallen asleep to part 1 of your social anxiety video for the past two nights now & I must say.... U have an AMAZING voice for this!! && The BEST part of it all is that, there's NO catch! When I first saw your site I just knew it was gonna get me interested (which it DID) and then hit me with some outrageous fee... The feeling I got while reading your options for payment were unexplainable! You have PROVEN to me that there are people out there that GENUINELY care!! So even if my anxiety issues are unaffected, you have been a blessing in my life!! Unfortunately as a single working mother, my finances are not the best right at this moment. But I promise you, I will not fail to "Pay It Foward"!! Again THANK YOU for all you do!! Sending much Love and Light your direction today Dr. Paul!! May your days be truly blessed!! :-)

Response: Thank you.

I heavily rely on your INSOMNIA videos every night but now they are freezing HELP!

Response: Sorry to hear that about the videos. It is because the video file size on youtube is so large that the internet connection sometimes makes it freeze. I would really recommend becoming a member on the website - option 2 is free. Then when you log in, you can either play the audio (much smaller file size) on the website, or better still, download the mp3, and then play it whenever you need it, without the need for an internet connection.
I hope that helps.
Take care,
Paul

I SLEPT!

Amazing! I've had trouble getting to sleep and staying asleep for many years & tried many things including prescription pills. I found your website last night & listened to your insomnia hypnosis video. I was asleep long before it had finished and stayed asleep all night. Thank you SO MUCH for this invaluable resource & for your incredible generosity.

Response: Thank you.

'Impressive'

I found this site about a week ago, As a converted skeptic I am very pleased with the progress I am noticing after a few sessions.
My mother, a nurse,has even noted how I seem better able to handle a very stressful family situation ...and therapy is only starting.
I am so very thankful!

Response: Thank you.

insomnia

thank you for sharing your knowledge you do a lot of good for a lot of people!!
i am beginning to get the hang of sleeping i've never been very good at it =)ZZZzzz...

Response: Thank you.

I just discovered this the other day, I found one of Dr. Paul's videos on YouTube and decided to give it a try. I can honestly say I've never had such a good nap :) I have decided to continue using your video's and shall write another review in a few months... though I must admit being rather optimistic about it. I thoroughly reccomend anyone interested to give it a go. My only criticism so far is that you could go through the breathing slowly and relaxing the muscles part a little longer.

Response: Thank you.

I find Dr.Dr Paul Ogilvie extremely insightful and helpful.My thought are much calmer as I listen to him. I am incorporating it into my daily life and living. I hope to be less stress as the days pass by.
Thanks
Karina

Response: Thank you.

I am so glad that I came upon this website. Before I found the confidence hypnotherapy videos my self esteem and confidence levels were beyond low. After listening to the sessions a few times a week I have noticed drastic improvements in my life and for that I thank you very much Paul and I hope that you continue to make more videos such as this because this has been a big inspiration to me to possibly get into hypnotherapy myself. Thank you.

Response: Thank you.

Great Benefits

Having experienced severe anxiety recently, hypnotherapy was very helpful in reducing it. Paul has an engaging quality that transmits warmth, aswell as being therapeutic.
Night time can be a difficult time for people with stress etc. The sessions are relaxing and induce better sleep patterns. Subsequently it helps energise your day and creates more productivity.
Hopefully some day they'll put less emphasis on prescribed medication and more on healing techniques like this.
Thanks again Paul for your kind help. It's much valued.

Response: Thank you.

Ms.T

Wow I'm amazed at how well hypnosis works,Dr Oigilve has worked wonders for me.I suffered from night terrors had sleep tests done that showed I had sleeping problems but offered little if no help!My Doc gave me sleeping pills which just made me drossy the next day n still only getting 3-4hours of unbroken sleep,since iv been using Dr Oigilves insomnia hypnosis my hours of sleep have been peaceful and longer hours also having 3 beautiful children iv been alot calmer due to being more relaxed using the relaxation session.Im so very thankful that these and many other sessions are avalible for FREE!!Everyday since i discovered Dr Oigilves sessions I'm excited to be in that relaxed carefree mode i get from the sessions he has provided again I can't thank you enough....

Response: Thank you.

Thank You

I want to thank you, Dr. Ogilvie, for posting these hypnosis videos. The hypnosis video for confidence has had a demonstratively positive effect on my life. It has helped me in job interviews and in my interpersonal relationships. It has helped my overall poise. I couldn't thank you enough for that.

For anyone else who may be reading this, Dr. Ogilvie is great at answering questions and going above and beyond for people he has never met. I literally live an ocean away from him. Yet, when I had questions about hypnosis, and inquired about how to leverage relaxation to help with my stage work, Dr. Ogilvie was happy to write me an email with long, detailed advice.


In closing I am glad to have found liberationinmind.com. The videos on this site are effective and I would recommend them to anyone. The relaxation techniques Dr. Ogilvie provides are great, and he is an exceptional hypnotherapist. If you need help with confidence, social anxiety, or just simply need to relax, I would recommend checking out liberationinmind.com.


Thanks again,


Aaron

Response: Thank you.

I am a long time user of hypnosis for stress and anxiety, and I found Dr. Ogilvie's recordings on Youtube. I find his scripts well worded, and his recordings are smooth and nicely delivered.
I highly recommend going through the resources he is offering here and finding the ones that speak to you, and using them regularly.
Thanks Dr Ogilvie,
Elle
