Gambling is a form of entertainment for many people, but in some cases gambling can become an addiction
leading to financial problems and relationship stress. It is estimated that 6 percent of North America's
population will have a gambling problem sometime in there life. Gambling addiction is a serious problem which
is more common in men then women. Gambling can create a rush when you lose and win, and sometimes the user is
unable to control their impulses to gamble. This is when it becomes a problem.
Signs of gambling addictions include, but are not limited to: Constantly thinking, talking about and, or,
preparing for gambling sessions, gambling during work or when you are expected at home, getting into debt from
gambling and lying to borrow money. Using illegal means to finance gambling and neglecting family or other
personal responsibilities. Feeling a need to gamble to relieve stress and or 'escape reality'. Of course, there
are also many more signs that could point towards a problem gambler, although gambling addiction is usually
pretty obvious.
This recording is designed to help you deal with the inner conflicts which gambling problems create,

In addition to this recording being written and delivered by Darren Marks one of the UKs leading
hypnotherapists and NLP practitioners, it also utilizes dual delivery hypnotherapy (DDH) and brainwave
entrainment. DDH involves different suggestions or metaphors being delivered separately yet simultaneously
through the right and left headphones. The effect is deeply hypnotic and has the advantage of helping the
unconscious mind to accept beneficial suggestions with less conscious interference.
Brainwave entrainment refers to the brain's electrical response to rhythmic stimulation. When the brain is
stimulated through one of our physical senses it emits electrical charges which are converted by the brain into
what we see, hear and feel.
When the brain is exposed to rhythm, the rhythm is recreated in the brain in the form of these electrical
impulses. If the rhythm is the right speed it can begin to mimic natural brainwave patterns. When this occurs,
the brain reacts by synchronizing to the same rhythm. This phenomenon is called the Frequency Following
Response (or FFR). FFR is used here to assist people to rapidly access deep meditative states which could take
years to master without assistance.
