Olympic Success!

It's not everyday a UK hypnotherapist gets a request for a customized hypnosis recording, from an Olympic Bob-Sledder in the USA, (who has since achieved success at the Winter Olympics!). So I've created another page to show this testimonial. Click here to open testimonial in a new window.

(You are just the best, that's all there is to it. Of course, I would love to write a testimonial! I'll look into all that you've suggested and I definitely will have patience for everything to fall into place as it should. Thank you again).


"At a time when most in need, I was blessed with the opportunity to work directly with Nathan Marika, and to my surprise, he was just the solution I had been praying for.

I had hoped for somebody who could listen to and be compassionate towards my current feelings, somebody who could with empathy help me bring perspective to my views, feelings and ideals. I couldn't have been more pleased to have found Nathan. Not only is he honest, he is sincere and wise. I have found him out of many, including closest of friends to actually feel what I was saying, feeling and thinking, whereas most, would approach me with more of a patronizing attitude such as, "Oh, you just need to get over it" or "That's so dumb, stop acting like a victim".

Nathan, with wisdom and sincere empathy took the time to hear me, feel what I was feeling and offer honest solutions with which I had full control of. I, in return, felt empowered within myself. Nathan brought to light perspectives which made sense in addition to being realistic.

Nathan, I would like to thank you for being a presence in my life and may you be surrounded in serenity, prosperity and health".

Audio Products!

Hi, Having downloaded my third Magical Wizard program from your site, I feel inclined to write and let you know that Im very pleased with the quality and content of these recordings.

I have downloaded various Hypnosis MP3's from other Hypnosis sites, and have often felt somewhat 'ripped off' in terms of the quality of the MP3, and the annoying 'synthesized-up' voices and repetitive nature of the suggestions. The Magical Wizard MP3's are, in my opinion, the best Ive actually ever listened too, and the price is extremely fair. Will you be creating further titles in the same style?

Great site design too, its sooo nice to come across a site without all those horribly annoying hypnotic spirals and mumbo jumbo! Reply if you have some time re: further titles, and thankyou for the service your site offers.

Kind Regards. Joanna Millington. (UK)

Flying fear!

Dear Nathan, as requested in your follow up letter, I take pleasure now in writing to tell you that my last flight was certainly much more relaxed than many others!

In fact, I had none of the typical thoughts about disaster, and none of the queasy feelings either! I remember vividly, your comparison with the rollercoaster that we talked about, and for some reason I just could not stop thinking about it on the actual flight, I even found myself smiling with the memory of your words. That relaxation trigger thing you created with me, most definitely 'worked' exactly as you explained, even though I didn't actually believe you at the time, (sorry!) I was most impressed!

I know that I came to you with a pessimistic attitude, due to my previous experiences with a 'so called Hypnotherapist', but you have turned my mind around completely. As soon as time allows, I would like to book an appointment for my husband, (remember I told you he suffers with psoriasis), and by the way, he says he'd like to shake the hand of any man who could free him from the 'in flight arm squeezing' that he's patiently suffered for years! So you'll have less of a 'doubting Thomas' than me to work with!

Well, thankyou again Nathan, and yes, you may use this reply as a reference should you choose.

Sincerely, Yolanda Aziz. Kensington. London. (November 21st 2000).

Customized Hypnosis recording.

"Nathan I am very very impressed and grateful for your concern and the very professional service that you offer. Thank you so very much for your advice and for the time you have devoted to my problem".

As requested in your follow up e-mail, I have supplied a reference regarding my experience with hypnosis, and grant full permission to show any prospective clients.

"At a time when I was having sexual difficulties with a new partner, following the death of my wife, I discovered the customized hypnosis recording service, provided by Nathan Marika. I have found him to be a very caring and professional person. He asked me many questions before sending the custom recording to me, which reassured me that he had my situation understood fully.

It requires work from the client, in conjunction with the personal recording, and if the client puts their faith in Nathan and is willing to totally "let go" to obtain a relaxed trance like state, they cannot fail to improve their life. I would heartily recommend that you allow Nathan Marika the chance to improve your life, if you have any psychological problems".

Multiple Sclerosis....Free Advice

E-mail request: Re: Self-hypnosis and MS

Greetings from Sussex! Having viewed your site with great interest I am certain that much of the difficulties experienced due to multiple sclerosis can be minimized, if not overcome, by correct self-hypnosis. My problem, having lived with the progressive deteriorating form of MS since 1976, is that as soon as I try to relax, my legs go into spasticity and start to spasm. Therefore full relaxation, as required for self-hypnosis, is impossible. Can you advise me, please, how best to cope? Regards. John Wood

Answer and advice re: self hypnosis and potential strategies, given by return email....reply as follows!

"Dear Nathan, Very many thanks for the time and thought you gave to my problem (your note of June 07). I found that what you had to say is so original that I continue to study it and am actually beginning to find some success with the method you suggested. The real breakthrough was when I came to understand what you meant by 'focus on controlling the mind, not the body'. This has shone a completely new light on the subject. I will let you know how I make out, results to date being very encouraging. In appreciation, and with best wishes". John Wood

A further follow up letter was sent, even more progress reported....

"I have been persevering with all the good advice and ideas you gave me re: spasticity and other symptom control, and can report continuing progress to the point where the nightly attacks are now reduced to a single period lasting between 30 - 60 minutes as opposed to three/four hours: I think the spasticity is losing heart as a result of my continued retaliation.

What fixed my attention on your advice in the first place, was the clarity with which you put your ideas across, and your choice of illustrative description that makes it so easy for those of us with little knowledge/experience of hypnosis to follow your guidance.

By the way, the techniques you suggested have been successful to the point where normal muscle spasms no longer disturb me. I'm now trying to get the better of occasional severe and very painful bouts that last for half-an-hour and seem to be in a different category. You've given me the confidence to know that I can crack them, too"!

John Wood. Sussex. Oct 2. 2001.

John may soon be offering his personal testimonial regarding self hypnosis & symptom control, for the benefit of other sufferers of MS. Through perseverance with self hypnosis, He has achieved results that speak for themselves, and has managed to overcome, or at the very least, lessen considerably, a very real & painful symptom. His personal testimonial will eventually be found by clicking here.

Examination stress.

Hi Nathan, thankyou for writing. I'd like to able to write and tell you that I passed my exams with flying colours, but I only just managed to get a C grade, and while that's enough to earn me a pass, I was really hoping for an 'A'.

However, this really only shows that my revision was lacking, for as you rightly said, you cannot guarantee that I'd pass, as the learning was simply down to me.

BUT the good news is that the sessions were definitely invaluable for my nervousness. On the morning of the exam, I went in to the hall virtually free of any worries. It must be the first time in my life that I've actually had dry palms in any exam, and that's pretty cool when I think of it, because up until that time, I must admit that I was still feeling very gloomy about the big day. I think I finally understand what you said about some of the hypnotic suggestions becoming active only at the right time.

Finally, you may of course use this note as a referral, but please do not show my e-mail address, thanks for all your patience and assistance, and good luck in your own endeavor's!
