I love having this kit on my desk!

There is a Stress Squeeze Ball in the box.
I squeeze it when I feel typing strain and when I feel frustrated with clients.

The deck of cards is cool!
Before and after our business meetings start. Someone picks a card and we all do the stretch or relaxation exercise.

My coworkers like to drop by my desk and pick a card.
Passes the time!

Great gift for your stressed out spouse and friends.

Customer Reviews:

Revenge therapy kit is more effective than psychotherapy.......2003-03-31

Hilarious too. The humor is worth a month of psychotherapy sessions. A great stress reliever. Save money on psychotherapy bills, try this instead.

A Must For The Terminally Curious!.......2000-04-12

I got this little kit a few months ago. What interested me was a visit to New Orleans. And to that famous VooDoo queen Marie LeVeau. I learned that it is for fun and entertainment and the little doll who comes with pins is cute but I don't believe I'll be trying to put a spell on anyone. Relieve stress any way you can. If this helps, great!

Absolutely outrageously funny - and a great stress reliever!.......1999-06-24

I bought this book for some fellow "inmates" at work. It is one of the funniest books I have read in a long time. What a wonderful way to relieve stress. This book sure does the trick. I probably could buy dozens and give them out to a lot of people here - I've already got four people asking me where I got it because they want to buy one for a friend or relative. What a clever idea. Thanks for making work fun.

Sallysands.......2006-02-16

I bought this for a gift and it was a huge hit! The cards are really beautifully illustrated and the meditation CD is very very relaxing. The oils smelled very nice and all for the price of the CD. I thought it was a lovely gift and the reciver raved about it! For $17.00 you can't go wrong, worst case, you might just get a good night sleep.

Redundant.......2006-01-04

This is the 2nd "kit" I've purchased whereby everything but the book and CD are superflous. The information placed on the flash cards could've been included in the book. I'm assuming this is a maketing trick to lower cognitive dissonance when purchasing shlock like this. The oil...no where does the kit tell you what's in the bottle. And forget about the "dream diary"...wasted pages with not enough room for notes, and the same "inspirations" on every page of the journal.

It is insulting to produce material that is clearly...CLEARLY...designed to create barriers for consumers to return goods. You see, once you remove the packaging...there's an open CD...oil...you're stuck with the kit regardless of the contents. You've been warned.

Change can be a blessing or a curse, depending on your perspective. The message of Who Moved My Cheese? is that all can come to see it as a blessing, if they understand the nature of cheese and the role it plays in their lives. Who Moved My Cheese? is a parable that takes place in a maze. Four beings live in that maze: Sniff and Scurry are mice--nonanalytical and nonjudgmental, they just want cheese and are willing to do whatever it takes to get it. Hem and Haw are "littlepeople," mouse-size humans who have an entirely different relationship with cheese. It's not just sustenance to them; it's their self-image. Their lives and belief systems are built around the cheese they've found. Most of us reading the story will see the cheese as something related to our livelihoods--our jobs, our career paths, the industries we work in--although it can stand for anything, from health to relationships. The point of the story is that we have to be alert to changes in the cheese, and be prepared to go running off in search of new sources of cheese when the cheese we have runs out.

Dr. Johnson, coauthor of The One Minute Manager and many other books, presents this parable to business, church groups, schools, military organizations--anyplace where you find people who may fear or resist change. And although more analytical and skeptical readers may find the tale a little too simplistic, its beauty is that it sums up all natural history in just 94 pages: Things change. They always have changed and always will change. And while there's no single way to deal with change, the consequence of pretending change won't happen is always the same: The cheese runs out. --Lou Schuler

The Change Survival Kit is an A-Mazing Way to Deal with Changes in Your Work and in Your Life. It reminds you to use what you discovered in the "Cheese" story - and enjoy it!

Simplified change.......2007-10-15

Got an hour to fill? That's how long it'll take to read. As many have stated, company heads and consultant groups hand this book out to employees when there are about to be changes in the company. Basically, this is a very simplified parable on four different takes on how to deal with change. Of course at the end you are supposed to decide which of the characters you currently are. Sniff - you actively move about seeking change. Scurry - you move about and quickly adapt to the change to make things happen. And then there's Hem and Haw. Both resist change and stick to the old expecting it to return to the promised treasures. Eventually Haw decides that staying in one place with no rewards is not progressing so opts to go seek change on his struggling legs. The Hem remains obstinant and refuses to change and his fate fades away. Of course no one wants to claim they are Hem but most people are. One of my favorite bits in the book is the statement along the lines of "If you can't change, you may become extinct."

Overall this is a very simple take on how people can adapt to change in their personal and professional lives. Seems quite similar on how to change your personal attitude and outlook that is presented in Benjamin Hoff's "Tao of Pooh". If you're in a company that is about to use outside consulting, expect to get 'homework' to read this book.

Great book.......2007-10-15

This is a fantastic book about reassessing your life and career. I've given it to friends after reading it myself.

It's an OK book.......2007-10-04

Just like most of the people, I got this book from my employer (I hope it's not a sign of restructuring :)).
I'm afraid that I do a too good job of reviewing the book one would no longer need to buy it anymore. In essence, the whole book can be summarized in about 10 statements. In all fairness though, these are insightful and worth meditating on statements.
So, like I said... An OK book.

Thought Provoking.......2007-10-03

The book is an easy and quick read but the story will put thoughts in your head that you will think about for years if not a lifetime. Life brings us all challenges so this book is for all of us... That is, unless your life is perfect.

Genuinely Insulting..........2007-09-29

Genuinely insulting to the independent thinker. Yeah I know, it's been said countless times but I felt the need to reinforce that notion. If you're someone that's more comfortable being a follower and having your life and work environment structured for you then you're more likely to enjoy this book and find something meaningful in it. If you're someone that uses logic and reason to guide your decisions then don't waste your time or money on this rehashed brainwashing manual. This is a book written for unquestioning, mindless followers, not a book for leaders. But a tool that leaders would use to try and control their subordinates.

Mind Magic Kit.......2001-06-15

I'd like to share my experience with the Mind Magic Kit with other readers. I've used the cassettes for relaxation purposes ever since the kit first came out in 1998. I never tire of their clear and uncluttered text and Dr. Mumford's voice. Of course, I have to admit that all of Dr. Mumford's books are a source of joy to me. I work in the healthcare field teaching Hatha Yoga and love his books because he combines his vast knowledge of ancient traditions with the very latest findings in neuroscience. It was his very first book, Psychosomatic Yoga, published in the early sixties which turned me into an avid Mumford reader. The Mind Magic Kit, too, is brief and energizing - not one extraneous word. I was shocked to read in one review that the Mind Magic Kit should be banned and wondered whether we had read the same book. Clearly the reviewer had a problem which needed medical attention, and I hope that he is well. I also hope that he might wish to retract his negative review. We are talking here of a concise little book packed with loads of useful information not only for persons wishing to `destress' but also for anyone working in the health care field. Ingrid Wong, M.A. (Psychology).

experienced and safe.......2001-06-14

Mr Mumford's material is always safe and interesting. I have met with him numerous times and attended a comprehensive workshop outlining the books techniques. As with all his works the emphasis is on very practical methods backed by his decades of practical experience and extremely well researched and implemented knowledge. My own experience as a practitioner of breathing and prana vidya (energy transformation) techniques for over 25 years shows me it is only possible to have a crisis if you don't follow the instructions in a graduated and patient way...if all else fails READ the instructions!!! I recommend John's work to anyone, be it practitioner or teacher, beginner or advanced...

simple, effective and powerful.......2001-06-14

Dr. Mumford's Mind Magic Kit is a very valuable tool for inner exploration, personal growth and relaxation. It enables virtually anyone to experience the benefits of biofeedback at minimal cost and on their own time. It provides readers with simple, effective and powerful techniques that have withstood the test of time. Dr. Mumford is trained in the Hindu Tantric tradition and Western medicine; the material is presented in terms that are easily understood by Westerners unfamiliar with Eastern traditions or Western, New Age ideas. Though I am an experienced meditator, with a variety of different practices at my disposal, I use the Mind Magic kit on a regular basis; thus it is suitable for all. I highly recommend it.

Mark Michaels, JD., MA.

Balanced Reviews.......2001-06-14

I have not only used Dr. Mumford's techniques as presented in the Mind Magic Kit but have passed them on to literally thousands of students and friends with my unreserved recommendation.

I was amused rather than disappointed to read the negative reviews which described: 1. a crisis of body temperature reaching boiling point and 2. Dr. Mumford as a successful con man.

The first reviewer not only describes a physiological impossibility, but ascribes a poorly defined crisis directly to the techniques contained in the Kit. That reviewer may fall into that .000001% of humanity who are in fact allergic to themselves, as it is deeper contact with your self which is provided by the methods.

The second reviewer describes Dr. Mumford as a con man. This assessment is contradicted by the body of the man's work which is highly respected in academic and professional circles, by the subsequent reviews from those whom he has helped, and by his life itself. While not a simple man by any stretch of the imagination, his life IS simple (read unostentatious, frugal and sincere) and he is a brilliant and committed human being.

There is an inevitable similarity between the techniques he elucidates in the Kit and those presented in my own book: Mastery of Stress (Llewellyn USA 1999), not because they are both from the same publisher, but because they are drawn from impeccable sources.

The value of the kit lies not only in its practicality and simplicity of use, but also in its ready applicability to the contemporary condition

A treasure for teachers and students alike........2001-06-12

I have read a couple of the reviews about Mind Magic Kit and I am `amused' and 'surprised' at the 'ignorance' displayed. The claims that the book should be 'banned' is so ridiculous that these people deserve no comment and the reviewers should consider seeking psychiatric assistance for deep seated anxieties. Perhaps this is an occasion to say that a minority of people when attempting relaxation experience anxiety at first, but that's well far away, from some ridiculous statements I have read in one of the reviews! Let me explain and point out what are some of the main consideration about Dr. Jonn Mumford's work: -There is no risk if raising blood temperature to " boiling", as someone has stated in his review, because this is just impossible! -The book is a guide to Autogenic practices and it is to be said the those practices have been established for over a 100 years. -Being a teacher in the same area and field, I would like to underline that the information given in Mind Magic Kit, is so clearly laid out that the book is a treasure for teachers and students alike. -Anyone that has developed a tiny little bit of scientific competence on the subject is able to understand that the information on Melatonin is the very latest. -I suggest to anyone that wishes to engage in learning relaxation and Autogenic practices to try with Mind Magic Kit. I am sure it will take very little to understand that the book is a secure, clear, simpler and efficient guide. The book is completely coherent and in line with current Psychological Behavioral relaxation practices and could not be a better introduction.
