Author Mark Stephens was a sickly child, with daily lifethreatening asthma attacks. Then, at age eight, he participated in meditation and yoga courses that changed the course of his illness. His new regime proved to be life-changing again years later.

In 1990 Mark was given just six months to live when he was diagnosed with second-stage lymphoma, a diagnosis that broke the sturdy ground from under his feet. He knew he needed help. Mark combined the best western medical treatments with the very best eastern healing methods to change his prognosis and survive. It was a transformation that not only healed him and gave him his life back, it ignited a passion that set him on a path to helping others.

In his new ground-breaking book, Mind Free, and his famous MindFree app, Stephens shares his unique combination of mindfulness, meditation and hypnotherapy – mindful self-hypnosis – a method developed over decades that greatly helps to improve quality of life.

The Mind Free method teaches you how to heal your mind and emotions in order to put yourself in control of negative thoughts, break bad habits, sleep eight hours a night, and overcome years of stress and anxiety. You will learn to smash procrastination, live pain-free, overcome weight issues, and fix your phobias – using the power of your mind.

“The combination of mindfulness and hypnotherapy enables anyone to enter a deeper state of relaxation than typical hypnotherapy practices. Mindful hypnosis enables practitioners to focus on an obstacle they want to overcome or a specific goal they would like to achieve,” Stephens says.

Mind Free includes empowering selfhypnosis scripts and meditations, key lessons, and inspiring case studies of real people who have used these techniques to achieve amazing results. This lifechanging guide will help you become the hypnotist and use the power of your mind to transform your life from the inside out.

Ben Fordham, who Mark helped shed 15 kg, said, “Mark Stephens has lived an extraordinary life and he’s helped thousands of people break bad habits and turn their lives around. He is one of the most fascinating people I know and his story is out of this world.”

But is it really possible to ditch your negative thoughts, stress less, break bad habits, sleep well, and ease anxiety by simply reading a book?

According to Stephens, and to the very many who have purchased Mind Free, it is certainly possible to release emotional baggage and be happier by using the new mindfulness self-hypnosis techniques explained in the book.
