Dear Bruce
I am writing this to express my more than grateful thanks to Rick.
My story begins with when I had a fall and busted my wrist up good and proper,then months of physio and the anxiety that I may not be able to use it again–then one thing hit me after another my health suffered and suddenly I was in deep depression, acute anxiety and panic
attacks.I tried to battle it out myself not wanting to take medication–but it was no good it just got worse I had to resort to taking medication
and counselling.That did help me a lot—but I was still wanting to do better.
Now I want to state that I am a very cynical person about meditation and such and I had noticed Ricks CDs in my Chemist before but I had got to the stage I would try anything to get me back on track– I wasn’t at all convinced it would help me –but–couldn’t hurt could it?
I bought the ‘Fear and Panic Free’CD–I got my doctors ok (important).Lets say I am no longer a cynic,within a week I was feeling so much
better and continued to listen as directed for the 6 weeks and I was so impressed that I followed on with ‘Happiness and Self Esteem’
and now listen on maintence,I am just about back to my old self now.I wanted to write this testimonial in the hope it might help
somebody else get out of that ‘dark place’ I found myself in—-Thankyou Rick! It is good to have you on side.

Dear Rick,
I very recently purchased your cd “Flying Beyond Fear” after a friend had purchased another cd from your range. I have had a terrible fear of flying/tunnels and bridges for many years now and the fear was seemingly getting worse with time. I have missed a couple of family holidays overseas due to the fact that I just did not want to get on the plane. I have had many arguments with my husband due to the fact that I would rather take the long way (sometimes a very long way) to avoid a tunnel or a bridge! As we have a very big family reunion coming up in America I began to get very anxious and went and got anxiety tablets to get me through the trip - I have used them before and all they seem to do is dull the fear and make me very tired (not great when traveling with small kids). Anyway - to the point - I have listened to the cd for the last three days and today was able to travel through the new tunnel on the East link freeway (and it did not collapse, no crashes, fires, floods or drama’s). I was able to get through the entire length with my eyes open (husband driving!!) and actually feel really good about the whole process! That is the part that amazed me the most - that it actually felt really good, very safe and enjoyable! I believe whole heartedly that the cd had done this for me. I am now looking forward to seeing how my flight will be and feel 100% confident in myself. I am so very grateful for the freedom that I feel I have already obtained from you. Thank you over and over for releasing me from the grip of dread and fear that I have had to deal with for so long. I will be excited to let you know how my trip goes (many flights within the US as well). Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!
Dear Mr. Collingwood,
I wrote to you several weeks ago after purchasing you cd “flying beyond fear” to thank you for the fact that I was able to drive through tunnels for the first time without not totally falling apart with fear. That was the first sign to me that the cd really worked - but I have just returned from a family reunion in America (a long flight in itself) where I took 7 flights within the States!! One of those flights was into Las Vegas which is known to be a very turbulent landing. All of the flights I was able to do with ease and even if I did begin to let my mind get the better of me I would soon hear messages from the cd entering and calming my fears! I can not believe I was able to do all that I did, nor can my husband. I know that there is no way I could pretend to be ok with flying for the amount of time I spent in the air, so I know that it was all the result of the cd. I am sure that you get many letters of thanks but I want to thank you again for the freedom you have given me from the terrible fear I used to have at the very thought of getting onto a plane. I look forward to traveling again and that excites me!
Thank you so much.
Kind regards

Hi Rick,
I have just been reading all the testimonials from customers on your website and I am impressed, but not surprised, at the comments.
I have been espousing the benefits of your tapes to anyone who will listen, lately, and I am sure people think that I am a bit ‘out there’!
It is difficult to explain the positive effect these CDs have had on me, or to understand how they can work so quickly, but they really do work!
I purchased the Self Worth and Optimism Cd at mu Naturopath Clinic, thinking I had nothing to lose. I had never heard anything about Rick Collingwood before, so I had no pre-conceived notions or expectations. I was simply drawn by the title, a curiousity about hypnosis and the fact that I have been plagued with self-doubt, anxiety and negative thought patterns my whole life.
The worst time for me has always been when I wake up during the night. My mind would immediately conjure up negative thoughts and my inner voice was impossible to quiet. Othen I would lay awake for hours into the early morning, worrying about work, health or the future, only to fall into an exhausted sleep shortly before I had to rise.
The first night I used this CD, I awoke around the same time as usual but I was absolutely astonished and overwhelmed at the feeling of calm I felt. My mind felt like a blank canvs and, for the first time, I felt as though I could choose what to think about, rather than being bombarded with unwanted thoughts. I was so impressed that I persevered with the CD, listening to it on my IPOD every night as I fell asleep. I have to say, try hard as I might to stay awake, I fall asleep every single time!
Aften listening to the first CD for the prescribed time, I purchased and listened to the Happiness and Self-Esteem CD, again for the prescribed time. I recently purchased Super Memory and am now looking forward to improvements on this front, as well.
I feel quite emotional, trying to explain how these CDs have changed my life. Quite simply, I feel like I have been re-programmed..for the better! I no longer feel stressed about situations which are outside of my control, particularly at work. I have never been one to laugh very easily, being too altogether too serious, but lately I have been LAUGHING more than I ever have in my whole life! I have more confidence. I feel light-hearted and positive…and the negative self talk is gone!
My next purchase will be Self Motivation. Now that I have tackled my major demons, I want to reconnect with my sense of purpose and find the discipline within myself to finally see things through to completion, instead of being scared off by fear of failure or disappointment.
I am so convinced of the benefits of these CDs that I purchased the Quit Smoking CD for my best friend, even though I don’t smoke. she hasn’t listened to it, yet, but I will point her in the direction of your website…maybe when she reasd the testimonials she will be encouraged to do so without delay!
Thank you so much for creating these wonderful CDs. They are truly amazing.
Kind regards,
Fiona

Dear Rick,
Hi Rick tonight I spoke with Jim at a race meeting, he used the sports CD seven times and can’t remember hearing much of it at all. I also got some commentary from Michael Madison, the top US cycling sports psychologist. Let me preface it by saying he absolutely loves the CD and thinks that your technique is the best he has ever heard. I will send you some moresuggestions for the new US sports range.

I have been using 2 of your cd’s and have found the happiness and self-esteem one fantastic. I’ve lent it to my Mum and she really likes it [and really needs it] but at the end she wakes up instead of staying asleep. Is there anything you can suggest to stop this. Thanks for your time and the great cd’s
Kind regards

Dear Dr Collingwood,
I really enjoy the ‘Develop Your Psychic Abilities‘. It has worked really well with remembering all past events, which is great because now all I need is the ‘Super Memory‘ CD to keep the memories until I’m able to use them.
I would like to ask if there is any time in the future were you would extend your range and develope a CD for ‘Effective Speaking’. I seem to be constantly plagued by the inability to express exactly what it is I have in my mind and I can’t seem to get it out. It causes me a lot of frustration and embarrassment, so much so that I actually avoid social events,etc.
Yours Sincerely
Deborah

Dear Rick,
Recently I bought one of your CDs and just after 2 days listening already can see a lot of positive changes. Those fast results impressed me so much that I’m thinking to become a hypnotherapist. Are you planning to do your course training in Melbourne in near future and if not could you please direct me or recommend a good hypnotherapy course in Melbourne.
Thanks a lot,
Stan

Dear Dr. Collingwood,
One of your former hypnosis students who is currently studying a Masters degree at USQ has informed me that you have produced a disk (distinct from the very effective disk for dealing with insomnia) containing just theta rhythm. I was wondering if this is commercially available. I use hypnosis a lot in my pain management practice (I find it an effective analgesic, and a great accelerant for standard CBT), and I am always on the lookout for useful tools.
Sincerely

To whom it may concern.
I have recently bought a few of the titles in the Life Improvement - Hypnosis CD series and I have been greatly satisfied with my purchase.
However the retailer that I bought the titles from does not hold all of the titles that are available. I do not have a computer and I am interested in ordering more titles. Can I order directly through you via money order? If so can you please send details and pamphlets or brochures promoting your titles.
Looking forward to hearing from you
Thank you

Quick update
I have already noticed a difference in Kathryns attitude and actions this week, more focused, calmer, making plans for medical appts etc, talking to her sister and me about her past, anger and depression etc and how best to work on herself. Went out last night and only had a few drinks, she said she just did not feel like any more, which is terrific and I am sure a result of the cds.
We will keep playing the cd and keep you posted! I will send a deposit cheque for the course next payday.
Kind Regards

Dear Dr Collingwood,
First of all let me apologise for the time taken to get back to you re; the fibromyalgia CD you were kind enough to send to me. Unfortunately family concerns have not allowed me to respond as soon as I would have liked to do so.
Dr Collingwood, your CD has truly been a heaven sent gift, as only sufferers of this chronic pain disease could understand after using it. I would recommend this CD to anyone with chronic pain and/or stress. It is such a comfort to know I have help right here in my own home. God bless you for this medication free help.
Light, peace and love,
Mrs Marie Browning
HI
I purchased a couple of CD’s, Super Memory and Relationship Confidence about 10 days ago.
I am very impressed with the quality and would like to buy a number of other titles.
I have been married 11 years and was under the impression that the Relationship Confidence tape would do focus on improving the relationships I have with spouse, family and friends.
However, the Relationship Confidence CD is has a particular focus aimed at people who wish to attract a long term romantic relationship which is not what I was thinking of.
Please could you tell me if I could change this CD for another. Whether I do this through you or take it back to the shop where I got it.
Thanks

Hi Rick !
My name is Deane and I along with my business partner Roxanne, run a small New Age Store on the Gold Coast.
We stock your Life Improvement Series and would like to congratulate you on your achievement with this range of products.
Have been receiving a lot of positive feedback.You are helping many people help themselves with a huge variety of problems, so keep up the fantastic work.
Also just wanted to make a quick mention about Ken and what a great job he does. Easy to deal with and very professional!
I am primarily contacting you because I have been doing a bit of research into Universal Laws over the past couple of years. I would like to get to a stage ( particularly with abundance ) where I can help people lift a few of those invisible chains !
I have personally found that unattaching from the result and staying in the present moment to be the greatest obstacles. I dont know if you can recommend anything to remedy this…even one of your CD’s ?
What I was wondering was that in your recent CD” Develop Your Psychic Power” you make reference to the UNIVERSAL MIND. Are you able, or have you ever placed people into a hypnotic state which directly accesses
the UNIVERSAL MIND ? I would be really interested to find out how.
Also, just on a personal note I have found that the Psychic Power CD has had the strongest effect on me even though I have only been using it for a few days…GREAT STUFF !
Regards,
Deane

Good Morning
I have purchased 5 of your CD’s and I am currently working my way through them. Personal Life Motivation is very good and very quick. I was wondering why you hadn’t produced a cd on alcoholism.Or perhaps it is in the pipeline? As far as social need goes, I should think this problem would be up there, or ahead of smoking and stress.

Mr Collingwood,
It has been about six months since I first started to feel not quite right. I did not know what was wrong just thought my body was mucking up. As a result of the anxiety I was suffering, my digestive system started to shut down. Then I started to worry about that also. I also suffered depression for a short while. As a result I had considerable weight loss, and started several treatment options. I underwent treatment from my Naturopath also started acupuncture. These treatments helped but the problem still remained. In November I was having a really hard time. My wife I went to see our local doctor who we trust. He is excellent and tells it how it is. Sometimes it is a bit hard to accept what he is saying, but it is better to be told the truth. He told me that stress was at fault and wanted me to start anti-depressants. At first I could not accept it was stress doing this to me, but after a while it made sense and I accepted it. I am not fond of drugs and wanted to avoid them, so we made a trip to our naturopath for some alternatives.
The supplements suggested by our Naturopath worked well, however the root of the problem was still there. My acupuncturist suggested that I should get myself a meditation CD, to help me to relax. This is when I discovered the hypnosis CD’s in the shop. They came highly recommended and I was told they were better than meditation alone. So I thought what do I have to lose and bought the self-esteem happiness CD. After the first day (I listened to the CD three times that day) I knew positive changes were taking place. It has been about 5 weeks of listening to the CD now I can feel myself becoming more relaxed everyday living life with a clear mind. I am no longer weighed down by negative thoughts worrying about things unnecessarily. I now understand that I control my thoughts they only have the power that I give them. I still have treatment from our Naturopath Acupuncturist, they work well with your CD. I am now putting on weight again, and am feeling a lot better. I have had a few challenging situations arise, and have noticed the changes in those situations within myself, and can see other people in a different light.
I have also had the pleasure of speaking to you on a couple of occasions, and found you to be very understanding of my situation. I didn’t expect that I would be able to talk to you, but was very pleasantly surprised when you took the time to speak to me. It is good to see in this day and age that there are still genuine caring people out there.

Hi There,
I have recently begun using your CD for insomnia, with great results! It is amazing how a good nights sleep can improve the quality of your life. I am interested in speaking with someone on selecting other CD’s in the series that might further benefit me. The retail outlet where I purchased the CD, while friendly were unable to help with any inquiries. Their only assistance in the process selection was these are popular. Can you advise where in metro Perth I might get some further assistance with product selection.
Many thanks,

Hi There,
I have the STOP SMOKING NOW CD and would like some advice please.
Having read some of the comments on the web, I am now less worried as it would appear that it is “normal”to still smoke at the start of the program. I find it nearly impossible to smoke a whole cigarette and have cut down from 20 per day to less than 3 so it is working but had “difficult” day yesterday and for the first time since I started on Tuesday smoked a “whole” cigarette. I would like to know a couple of things, one is this ok and should I stop “worrying” about it ie can this be a normal part of the process and is the idea actually to quit completely by the end of the 6 weeks not after the first day (bit impatient me).
Also I have set myself the goal of losing 5kilos and getting to 13% body fat (for me). I am mostly a happy person, with a positive outlook, but can get brought down at times and I am aware that there are “issues” from my past that contribute to my self esteem “problems”. I wanted to know if it is possible to use more than one CD at a time, or if I will achieve better results by completing one before moving onto the next. Then my next question would be would you advise the “happiness self esteem“, or the “weight loss” cd.
Thank you in advance for you assistance in this matter.
Kind regards

Dear Dr Collingwood,
I have recently purchased your CD “Quit Smoking Now” (Vol2). I am 56 years old and have been smoking for over 35 years, lately approx 40 per day. Due to a hysterectomy at 33 years of age, I went into a depression which for many years was controlled by Tofranil, though one year ago I had to change medication. After many trials Effexor XR seems to be the one that works, though one of the side effects is Insomnia. Therefore I was taking medication - Temazepam - to help me sleep.
Your CD, most nights, puts me to sleep without medication - some nights I fall into a deep sleep very early into the program and my main question is:
Do I still benefit when I am sound asleep? I do not remember anything but wake up and roll over to my normal sleeping position all of a sudden when the CD is finished. Other nights I hear the whole CD and get ‘restless legs’ and feel I should take something to help me sleep but persevere and eventually get to sleep. I have not completed the 10 straight nights, as I have been interrupted and had to travel away for a few days but have now started again and will follow through with the complete program.
I do feel a little better and more relaxed and hope that I stop smoking.
Thank you,
Regina

Attention: Dr Rick Collingwood
It was nice talking to you this morning. I got a surprise to hear you were in Perth, I thought you were in Brisbane. I work at a Psychiatric Clinic (Osborne Park) and had asked one of our psychologists a few weeks ago if she could recommend someone who did hypnotherapy. I was desperate to find someone to help me with my insomnia. I went to a private psychologist for a couple of sessions and she taped a session for me (which was nothing like your CD’s I can tell you!). I stopped going due to the expense, and then I found my old CD of yours on weight, I think I got that one through mail order a few years ago. I then thought I would try and find out if you had done one on insomnia. I rang Directory Assistance to see if I could get your number and they gave me the Hypnotist Society in Brisbane. (They didn’t know a thing about you, so they said). I was at a complete loss as to what I would do next, and then I rang Crystal Reflections at Hillarys here in Perth, and asked them if they had heard of you. Low and behold they not only did know you, but they had a CD on insomnia. You can imagine how I felt when they gave me a brochure and we could contact you right here in Perth!! I felt like it was Christmas. As I told you this morning we now have seven CD’s in total. Thank you so much for sending me the updated CD on weight control, I look forward to receiving it in the mail.
Kind regards

I have had multi faceted benefits from your Insomnia CD and now I am feeling great. I have been taking painkillers for Arthritis and Sleeping Tablets before bed for many years, this has now stopped. Since I started listening to your CD I have a much deeper and longer sleep and wake up feeling happy and refreshed, I also have a more pleasant and better dream quality.
