The hypnosis seminar to quit smoking was an intense experience. The hypnotist, Larry, didn't just make me want to quit; he made the very idea of smoking a horrible, disgusting thought. I walked out feeling highly encouraged that I could quit smoking through the power of suggestion. Definitely recommend this to anyone who wishes to be smoke-free!
I was considering paying for both the weight loss and smoking seminars. After reading hundreds of reviews, most of which were negative! I just want to tell everyone that you can listen to several different hypnosis and meditation videos on YouTube for free, they have ones covering everything from weight loss, smoking, procrastination, anxiety and more. I personally listen to sleep hypnosis videos every night to help me fall asleep quickly. I believe this product is a scam from everything I've read so far, I would rather listen to free videos every night to slowly change my mentally over time then lose $50-$500.

This was a seminar discussing how to lose weight using hypnosis and good eating habits. The speaker took the time to explain the physiology of weight loss, without getting too technical. He explained how hypnosis and the use of the "vitamins" he was selling would help people lose weight. He made it a point to say that the hypnosis and good eating habits would work WITHOUT the vitamins, but that the vitamins would accelerate the fat loss process. I decided to give his products a chance, so I purchased a 7 month supply. I'm hoping to be a success story.

SEMINAR for weight loss was good! They gave alot of good basic information on how to lose weight, eating, not eating, and taking supplements. Yes they had plenty for sale, but overall I got alot of good info/tips on how to eat and drink better and lose weight. Worth the entry fee and booklet. I feel the hypnosis did work and gave me a different take on eating habits. Would recommend this seminar but have an open mind. They totally offer a refund if you are not 100% happy with the seminar.
I'm a licensed mental health counselor and a professional presenter myself, and I attended the weight loss seminar. I was very impressed with the knowledge of the presenter, Jill, and how professional and responsible she was and what she provided to us. I never doubted her sincerity in trying to genuinely help us. I also work in a Whole Person Health Center dealing with both mental and physical issues and I could see that her understanding about the metabolism was accurate. The whole way the seminar was done—explaining to us in advance what was going to take place, clarifying the information behind the suggestion she was going to give us, making some space for asking individual questions during the break—was top notch. Anyone making the claim that this is all about pushing some supplements is mistaken. They make it very clear that the high quality supplements they're recommending will greatly accelerate weight loss but is not necessary, because the hypnotherapy itself will work reliably. I was terribly impressed by the whole program, which went faster than I expected and done very efficiently.

Don't waste your money, 100% scam? Weight loss or smoking cessation! Snake oil practice, been around for centuries!
This did nothing. Immediately wanted a cookie after. Jill was great, loved her energy but hypnosis didn't work at all!
The seminar and Jill And Jeff are absolutely amazing! She really knows her stuff and was trained by Jeff who is one of the leading people in his field. I feel so confident that I will stay a lifelong non-smoker due to the Hypnosis and tools from today's seminar. I'm so grateful for this program. This program is well worth it, it seems. Very impressive.
Tip for consumers:
The seminar seems great and the pills if they work like they say they do, that would be wonderful. However, again if people are buying the four month supply, you should give them a month to see how they work, and then even give them a partial refund if, after a month, they don’t work and they could send them back even just for a portion of what they spent because it’s a lot of money
Products used:
All four of them but the reason I rated the return policy as not good is because you should give people more than three days or whatever small amount you give people especially when we’re buying four months worth
Larry was awesome! Nothing has changed for me. Took both weight loss and smoking. Nothing tastes like dog piss, and the color red is still the color red, not a brighter red. This company needs to be more transparent that this is not hypnosis, it's a plot to sell supplements. Which now I'm kinda scared to take cause every bottle has the same clear capsule full of the same colored powder. Yall got an awesome salesman. He'll have you eating out of the palm of his hand. But I was really discouraged coming in for hypnosis and asked to spend $400 on pills
Tip for consumers:
Be prepared for this experience to cost a small fortune. And larry has a point, we spend way more than this on cigarettes every year. But it's not about hypnosis it's to get you to buy their supplements.

Day 1, but all so far
Watch your bank account and get receipts for everything. Do not buy supplements without checking to make sure you're not on SSRI's first or any others that may create havoc. I also suggest typing a search on complaints with getting money back with the BBB, lots of complaints! I was overcharged for the supplements myself and now fighting for money back. Too crowded and no space between you and others just so you know.
Tip for consumers:
Warning!!!!! Good luck getting that 100% money back guarantee!!!! Watch your charges and get receipts for everything!!!!!
Very informative and entertaining. Experience had value as a mindfulness exercise, unfortunately not much else. Best of luck to everyone who tries. Hope it works for you.
Overall the experience was pretty positive. Larry gave a lot of good advice in the beginning regarding eating habits. The only thing is when he got really hyped up he would talk fast and it was hard to understand every thing. I wasn't sure what to expect going into hypnosis but it was the real deal! It's too soon to tell if it truly made an impact on my lifestyle but I am hopeful to see where this goes!
I not only was not hypnotized but had checked my watch seconds before closing my eyes. When the supposed hypnosis was finished and we were told to open our eyes he asked people he asked all of us how long we thought we would eyes were closed and everyone replied 6-8 minutes. He then explained that you have no concept of time when under hypnosis, of course getting a shocked reaction from everyone when telling us it had been 20+ minutes. My watch confirmed it had actually been 9 minutes! Time it!
Very skeptic at first, but what an amazing seminar! Was very relaxed and really want to quit smoking. So far so good. Our speaker Larry rocked it! Would highly recommend
Do not do it I don't even know if Mark Patrick exists he doesn't even show up there's some guy that can't talk and some lady that well she's just a riot let me tell you don't do it this is a scam and they say there's money back guarantee that's a lie too you don't get your money back after you get in there they want you to spend two three four hundred more dollars blah blah blah then they tell you no watches no cell phones because they want you to think you being hypnotized for 30 minutes instead she's just doing a relaxation thing for about 8 minutes anyway this is a scam it's like one of those late night infomercials and do not do it the only reason I gave a star is to give this review I can't believe I got scammed I'm smarter than that and I was so excited I really thought it was going to work this is a bunch of crap do not waste your money do not go do not do it and I don't even think Mark Patrick exists scam scam scam and they lie and you don't get your money back
Pat was our presenter for the weight loss seminar i attended in Jacksonville NC. I didnt realize how the foods I have been consuming have been hurting and not helping.
Hi Emily,
This is Jennifer from Mark Patrick Seminars' customer care team. Thank you for complimenting the program the way you did. We take great pride in what we do and though we are confident that we are “doing it right” it’s always nice to get reinforcement.
At this point, it’s not just great to hear how happy you are with the program and the success you’re having, what’s really much more important to us is your “long-term success” though likely with other programs you haven’t had long-term success with hypnosis it really should be significantly different, because for the first time we address all the psychological programming that’s been making you behave in a way that’s averse to losing weight.
The programs such as: “clean your plate starving children in Africa” or “clean your plate and then you get a treat” and so many others programmed often as little children have now been replaced with hypnosis. It’s because of this that you can expect probably for the first-time long-term success.
Please over the next 10 years give us some additional feedback as to how you're keeping the weight off once you reach your goal. Thanks once again for the feedback.
Kind regards,
Mark Patrick Customer Care Team
I have always been skeptical on hypnosis. Now not sure what to think. I went in with a positive mind. Smoke my last cigarette on the ride there. Did not by another pack. Did the seminar and got in my car without hurrying to light a cigarette. I could see some leave lighting up. Can't explain why I didn't have that dying need to stop at a gas station. Believe me it felt weird... I catch myself saying "I'm a non-smoker" when a craving occurs... it quickly passes too. 2 days now
Tip for consumers:
Positive vibes is needed. Worth giving it a try!

None, it was a seminar.
This class was very informative and I felt good about putting the things I learned into practice when I left. I attended a birthday party/cookout the same day a few hours after class and I had no desire to have any sweets or overeat just because there was a ton of food! I had zero temptation which for someone who is used to eating snacks on the daily, I was super excited to know I could have whatever I chose, but I didn't want anything sweet! One day at a time!
I purchased TWO tickets to weight loss seminars. Their policy is to refund is not satisfied. I was not satisfied and neither was my friend who I also purchased a ticket for. We both (separately) wrote to the company and asked for a refund. They wanted to see receipts for payments (which I sent) They wrote to me and said, "rest assured you will receive a refund" and "thank you for sending the necessary documents." That was over a month ago. Still no rerfund. -- UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE: They Finally did refund my money. Took a very long time and a lot of headache, but they finally did refund!
Will see if the hypnosis was successful. Just went to seminar last night. Was given valuable information to help me lose weight.
The speaker was warm, friendly, and informative. I enjoyed learning about how to improve my life through hypnosis, wise food choices, and exercise. I hope this will lead me toward not only losing weight but maintaining it.
I went to the seminar with great hope bought the supplement and it has been 2 1/2 weeks and haven't lost a pound. Very disappointed
Hi Sherry,
This is Jennifer from Mark Patrick Seminars' customer care team. Thank you so very much for your feedback and taking your precious time to do the review. I am sorry that you have not lost weight yet however keep in mind it’s really not that long since you attended the seminar and we will be working with you for the next 12 months with our free coaching program.
Just as a reminder, a couple times a week you’ll be receiving emails from Michael Hunter covering the physiological challenges/issues to address to make sure that physically you are on track to losing the weight and most important keeping it off.
… And you will be receiving psychological coaching from Alex Goen that addresses the mental challenges such as programming you’ve probably received your whole entire life such as “clean your plate” because starving children in Africa” or then you get a treat” imagine rewarded for gorging yourself.
So, we will be with you for the next 12 months and I would very kindly request that you give us a review at that point once again to see whether or not we fulfill each and every promise.
Thanks once again for the feedback.
Kind regards,
Mark Patrick Customer Care Team
I loved it! I can already tell a huge difference! I'm NOT a water drinker, after the session, I've had 4,16.9 oz bottles! It's all I want! I'm surrounded by juice and soda, but I've grabbed water every time! That's huge for me! I feel relaxed, happy and super excited about the new me! Thank you for everything!
Hi Jenna,
Thank you for your feedback about the seminar, we take this program and what we do as an incredible honor to save people’s lives.
Smoking, as you know is a challenging thing to overcome, however with the “magic of hypnosis” it really makes it so much simpler. As you discovered, because, hypnosis addresses all the different activities that “trigger” you to have a cigarette, once, eliminated using hypnosis, quitting is made much simpler.
It’s difficult to distinguish between meditation and hypnosis, meditation induction, in fact, is often very similar to hypnosis induction because after all at the beginning of either session the objective is the same “relaxation” where they vary is meditation focuses on relaxation throughout the whole session even after induction but hypnosis after the induction incorporates what’s called “the language of the subconscious mind” also known as suggestions.
We would like to also suggest that you don’t get too confident and participate in our free one year coaching program just simply read the emails that you get weekly with tips on stopping smoking and staying a non-smoker. The free coaching is there for insurance purposes and only takes about five minutes per week, not a bad investment, is it? Five minutes a week, just to make sure you remain a happy healthy very attractive lifelong non-smoker!
Kind regards,
Mark Patrick Customer Care Team
