    -Barbara Brennan, author of Hands of Light and Light Emerging I would advise that this book be read with a willingness to take time to digest what is being said. This is not light reading, though it is Light reading, I assure you. -Pat Rodegast, author of Emmanuel's Books One way to discern the value of a person's connection with the inner worlds is to observe the positive effects, if any that result from that communication. The Pathwork has been a most positive result of such a contact, helping many people find a deeper truth and clarity in their lives; therefore the energy and spirit embodied in these transmissions that gave birth to the Pathwork deserve our consideration, for they have demonstrated their value in the blessings they have already made possible. -David Spangler, author of The Call and A Pilgrim in Aquarius

    The light and entertaining style sustained throughout the book belies the density of the presentation. Bandler describes belief and hypnosis as closely related allies in healing and transformation. Through hypnosis we can create powerful beliefs, and beliefs are "the express train to deep hypnosis". His NLP attitude installation, in the first chapter, works impressively well. Readers progress systematically to develop the skills necessary to build our own mind machine. You can automatically change destructive beliefs to doubts, and replace them with valuable beliefs, as fast as you can find them. Later chapters polish off hypnosis with Bandler's "favourite hypnotic phenomenon," time distortion. He gives us surprising ways to elicit and apply them. He leads us beyond hypnosis to hyperesthesia. Have you ever been lusciously aware of every detail of an overwhelming sunset or symphony or massage? Would you like that to happen more? Finally, and too soon, the book closes with suggestions. By following the last instructions we can design whole new kinds of good feelings to enjoy and new states of consciousness to explore ... if you have time.
