Monkey Mind Anxiety Cure Affirmations, Meditation & Hypnosis

Drew McArthur · 2019
47/100
👎 Skip It

Nine hundred affirmations is an impressive count, but quantity doesn't substitute for credibility — the author offers no clinical credentials and the hypnosis-efficacy claims go unsupported by any cited evidence. The audio-first format makes sense for this kind of material, but in print it reads as repetitive and thin. There are better-evidenced anxiety tools on the shelf.
