I've had excellent short and intermediate-term results with self-hypnosis, especially when I've made my own tapes to address specific issues. The basic fractionalization and relaxation techniques are the same, then guided imagery seems useful beyond that. I don't know how, but INTENTION is somehow encoded in the sound of the voice, so be sure to mean what you say if you develop your own. I've used the same script, once clearly intending healing hypnosis, the second time trying for a more professional vocal style. The healing-intent side was great; the FM-voice side didn't work at all. Go figure.
