I have noticed that people react completely differently to relaxation recordings, and even the same person may respond very differently to the same CD at different times. So I'd recommend trying a CD at least three times before dismissing it. Having said that, everybody has individual criteria for what relaxes them, and I'd thought I'd write a more factual review to help shoppers make the right decision first time.
Firstly, Glenn Harrold sounds like a honey-voiced Eastenders character - if Cockney irritates you, don't buy it. Other than that, it's hard to fault his deep and smooth voice, I love it. He sounds quite forceful not namby-pamby.
There are left-right stereo effects, mainly with his voice (affirmations echoing and fading in volume, you know the kinda thing). The music is very simple, subtle, and subsides altogether for long periods I think, so for me perfect - not distracting. The left-right effects are supposed to have all sorts of beneficial effects on the brain, and I personally like them, but if you are very easily distracted by noises, maybe this could be a problem, like for one other reviewer? Dunno.
The sound quality is high. The CD is very hypnotic I think, the first time in my life I've actually felt in a bit of a trance (I am not very suggestible). As for the script, overall it works well for me, and I slightly prefer the second track with a visualised visit to a garden etc to the more affirmation / hypnosis-based first track, simply because I didn't like some of the affirmations much. 'You continue to remain more and more relaxed' is a bit of a grammatical puzzle I find, and this had me distracted trying to work out whether this actually makes sense or not. Other affirmations are better than that though, and I have found the hypnotic first track nonetheless very effective.
Because of the small issues mentioned, only a high 4 out of 5. I have yet to find a better author of relation CDs. The memory one is good too, the chakra one great, and I am awaiting delivery of Unleash Your Potential, which seems to be very highly rated.
In comparison, Lorraine Ireland has a great script but the music is just insane, there is so much going on, and it is as loud as her voice, so sometimes you miss what she says! Her voice and unusual accent took more getting used to than Glenn's but because of the music I had to give up on her CD altogether.

When I first listened to this cd I thought 'oh no! what have I bought' because of this guys voice
I did find it a little irritating, the fact that he can't say 'now' or 'down' without it sounding like 'nah' or 'dahn', and also the fact that there is a slight speech impediment there. I just think he sounded dodgy!
I was ready to give up but after a few listens I got used to it and it does work
Every time I listen to it I find myself falling asleep but waking just at the end of the CD, so it must be doing something
Definitely worth a try
Fantastic - just give it time June 27, 2007

When I first bought this I thought 'Urgh - it's horrid' It seemed really irritating so listened once and shelved it. A couple of months later I listened again and couldn't beleive it - it was fantastic and really calming. I don't know what changed things but WoW! Just ordered a load of other CD's by this guy. Highly recommended.

I was having a real hard time, tried all the usual channels, talking, doctors etc and I decided there had to be another way to feel like I had some control. I found Glen's cd was a little sceptical but thought 'what the heck, no harm in trying'. I sat down in a quiet room, comfortable and listened to the cd that afternoon. I heard the first few minutes then woke up! I found his voice fine, the music was in keeping nothing weird. When I woke up, I felt refreshed and lighter. For the first time in months I had a full nights sleep. The next day I felt happier but couldnt say why. Ive been listening for the past few weeks each evening and I can only say its done far more for me that just help my sleep. Im calmer and find things are not getting on top of me. I feel in control again.
Cant reccommend it enough.
