Dr. Oz on Hypnotherapy

"Like guided imagery, hypnosis uses the focused power of the mind and imagination to improve health, change a behavior like smoking or achieve emotional balance. In a relaxed state of concentrated attention, ideas and suggestions seem to have a powerful impact on the mind."

Oprah on Meditation

"We believe in meditating. I believe in meditating in the tub with some very nice bath products. You can sit in the chair, you can sit on the floor, you can sit in the window, you can sit in the tub. I give myself at least ten minutes every day in some form of meditation. I happen to like the tub."
