Healing Hypnosis

I personally didn't like this app, the hypnosis instructions were a combination of the odd and the mundane (in the first few moments you have to visualise looking down on your body, then inhaling white light to every corner of your body and then relaxing your body, it's confusing especially when no further reference is made to the first two instructions). Then follows a fairly standard going-down-steps/ relaxation routine which didn't relax me at all followed by instructions to draw on the happiness of your first childhood memory, all very well if your first childhood memory was happy, but fairly useless if it wasn't! Also I didn't enjoy the presenter's voice terribly much, she sounds a bit too girlish and young for my taste and I found it hard to have much confidence in what she was saying, someone who sounds about 25 just doesn't cut it giving you life instructions. All in all it may be great for some people such as other young girls, but for more mature audiences possibly not.

I love this app and I love Rachels voice. She is so soothing and the recording quality and sound engineering is great. No mouth sounds, clicking, swallowing sounds etc. All breaths have been edited out, leaving you with Rachel's soothing, easy on the ear voice. Recommendations would be to bring back the dual volume of voice and sound backing track with the backing track mixed so it is continuous with no stops. Also to be able to add Rachel's other hypnotic apps onto your evening playlist, so you could get the benefits of more than one app when you use it. Other than that, fantastic!

I mainly listen at night before bed. It is very relaxing and I love listening to it. Not only do I sleep better, I am also feeling better. This app enables me to clear my mind so that I do not have negatives thoughts before falling asleep.

I'm not sure this is the appropriate app for me. My heartbreak is not from a break-up; I became a widow four months ago. There is blame, but it's quite different. The voice on this program is soothing, but I don't feel like I went "deep," as she suggested. And my earliest memories are not particularly joyous. And I don't know how to imagine the future six months or a year from now; just can't do it. Don't know if I should try it again, or look for something else.

She speaks too fast. Still can't get over my stupid ex and I feel more pain after listening to her voice. Just another regret! :(

Calming and grounding. Full of important things to keep in mind during the rough time following a break up. Helps to sleep, too.

I put this on a loop at bedtime and I'm relaxed fast and able to focus on the suggestions, at least until I fall asleep a few minutes later. There is a certain comfort I get from using this app to cope with a particularly sudden and painful breakup. Am I over it? No, but this is helping me cope.

This is an excellent app that I started listening to about 2 months ago after my boyfriend broke up with me. I have recovered quickly from this loss and really believe this app helped. I love the soft nurturing tone of Rachael's voice and the imagery she uses. The only thing I would change is the background sounds of the beach. The track repeats itself and the sound drops off each time which startles me awake. It makes it difficult to stay relaxed. The transitions between tracks are rough. Overall this app is very, very effective.

I want to preface by saying I just broke up yesterday with my boyfriend so I'm trying very hard to stay optimistic but the feelings of extremely heavy sadness are persistent. I downloaded this app to see if it would help... That being said, the hypnotist does have an incredibly soothing voice. She also makes numerous positive affirmations and is clearly talented at what she does. The reason I only gave 3 stars: I could hear the difference in recordings between her introduction (she probably dubs the same intro over each session you can download) and the material relevant to this hypnosis. For me, though subtle, it was very distracting. She also asks you to remember your very earliest childhood memory and asks you to focus on how happy you felt. Make sure the memory you reflect on is actually a happy one because she will stick with that memory for quite a while. She also asks you to picture yourself 6 months from now and see how strong and accomplished you've become. I think if you're going through a difficult breakup, it might be hard to see yourself happy 6 months from now since all your ideals and future plans with someone were just broken. For me, my mind kept drifting forward to the plans "we" had made. Her intentions are good, but the material I think could be much more relevant to a current breakup. Perhaps if she focused more on rebuilding self esteem and how to cut your losses, the hypnosis would be more effective. Just my $.02.

I downloaded this to get over a breakup and this app helped me fall asleep at night and remind myself not to blame my partner and stew in my misery but instead commit to healing and focusing on my bright future. 6 months later I feel great and have a new man in my life. I still listen to the first half of the recording as it works well for relaxation regardless of the state of your heart!
