Are You Ready for Self-Hypnotism?

A self-help book from the 1970s. Among the problems it promised to cure:

How to use self-hypnosis to cure your slipped disc, backache, headache, low back pain, even the painful torticolis or "wry neck" that has defied medical science
How to conquer a condition we call "loneliness" but which our subconscious mind knows to be a genuine starvation of our love needs
Even if you've been smoking for twenty-five years you can give it up overnight—and actually enjoy the so-called "withdrawal" period
An entirely new and different way of controlling overweight—on a self-hypnotic diet that requires no dieting

There was also an audio version, available on vinyl, which is still for sale on Amazon.
