Interesting experience but unsure if it worked. Larry was great and funny. There was a small distraction but I tried my best to focus and follow instructions. I don't think I am a non-smoker at this time but I think I will listen to the CD provided and see what happens. At the very least I will attend another session and maybe become a non-smoker after round two.
Very interesting experience. Not sure if it has worked but I enjoyed my time there. Hoping for the best!
Hi Rachel,
This is Jennifer from Mark Patrick Seminars' customer care team. 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.
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!

I learned a lot. Definitely a great experience and i will definitely recommend. I learned how im supposed eat, what im supposed ro eat, and need to sleep better.
Hi Amanda,
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 programed 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,

Larry was a wonderful genuine guy. He was very interactive with my mom and I. We lucked out and was part of a smaller group. There was no real pressure to buy the supplements. I knew before I went in there I was going to. I'm a 2 pack a dayer. I haven't had one since we left the seminar. The couple of cravings I have had were gone as fast as they came on. A couple knee jerk reaches for smokes that weren't there. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone else.
Hi Jennifer,

Too little hypnosis, too much vitamin salesmanship. It was Bieber truthful and helpful
Information, and every little bit helps. It was less expensive than an appointment with a nutritionist so I don't feel that I wasted my time or money.
Hi Carina,
This is Jennifer from Mark Patrick Seminars' customer care team. Thank you for attending the seminar and sorry about the misunderstanding of believing you have to buy the supplements in order to be successful. I hope that makes sense to you, but keep in mind, we offer one year money back guarantee with this program whether you buy the supplements or not, so it’s the program that we believe in. Have you ever gone to your doctor and they offered you a one year money back guarantee if what they did to you did not work? We really do stand behind this program, we also come back to each area 2 to 3 times per year on average and in addition to the money back guarantee we give you a lifetime guarantee to attend any program again should you ever start smoking again or need reinforcement or it didn’t work the first time. Think about that, it doesn’t get much fairer than that, does it?
On the other hand, do we think that the supplements are important? Absolutely! Why? Because… smoking is both of physiological and psychological challenge. Let me explain, first the psychological, how often do you go even a few hours without having a cigarette and then other times such as: coffee break, stress, get into car, having a drink etc. in turn cause you (trigger) to often have one cigarette after another? All the time, right? So psychologically certain things trigger you to have a cigarette the hypnosis is designed to break or disconnect that connection, that trigger.
Physiologically, there are also physical triggers. Very different than the psychological (mental) but it’s really important to address the physical as well because otherwise the physiological trigger can overwhelm the psychological. Now, many people find that the hypnosis is all that they need but we’ve designed the program to address the many and when you think about it, after the thousands maybe even $10,000 that you spend per year for cigarettes it’s probably best that we design a program that addresses all the issues even if the cost a bit more.
Thanks once again for the feedback.
Kind regards,

Larry is a funny dude. I just left and I'm wondering how this will all work as I've never been hypnotized before so I'm uncertain of its effectiveness. It was a lot less scary than I thought. Didn't buy the supplements, gonna try and find them though. I really hope this gets me on track.

Of course Mark Patrick doesn't actually host the seminars, at least not mine. Mine was hosted by someone named Pat, I believe, and this was on January 27,2019 at 2PM in Beachwood. I have given this review to the company directly. They responded telling me they were trying to reach the many and why they cover "nutrients" the email from them doesn't mention the vitamins they're selling. I was not offered a refund for anything. It was clear they only want compliments. This is a total scam.
The majority of the 2 hours was used as a sales pitch to buy vitamins he only had "a few" left of. The sales pitch lasted 45 minutes. The actual "hypnosis" was not hypnosis. It was a relaxation exercise where he told us smoking is bad for us, pronounced "painful" in an odd way, and put in some brief aversion therapy by telling us to imagine licking an ashtray if we ever smoked again. The "hypnosis" lasted, he claimed 29 minutes, my phone said it was 35 minutes. He asked leading questions to get the attendees to agree they were "hypnotized" for only 10 minutes or so as "proof" they were hypnotized.
We also had a 15 minute break to smoke and to buy vitamins. And the seminar started at 2:15 to give the people that were late a chance to get there (no one got there after 1:50). Also, Pat is a fast talking man from NJ, he barely slowed down during the "hypnosis" and we weren't allowed to ask questions because he's answer them eventually.
It's a scam. I'll report this everywhere I can.

Pat was fun, energetic, and informative. He really put things in easy to understand, direct terms. He also made it sound very doable. I left there excited to begin! I also like that you can go to any other seminar now for free. I will definitely go back!

This was a great seminar with all the helpful parts that was needed. About the neutrons how the affect smoking and what happens when you do smoke. It was explained in layman terms so everyone should have understood it no matter what type of social level. The only thing that I couldn't understand was the music didn't help me, could have done without it. I know it was supposed to help relax but for me it was another distraction to go through with all the coughing going on.
Overall it was a great learning experience. Love it

Unable to be hypnotized so I didn't get the full effect. I came back he told me to keep listening to the cd
Hi Dana,
I am so sorry to hear that the seminar didn't work for you. Let me explain what we do in this case. I have of “whatever it takes” commitment to our attendees.
Providing that you have a sincere desire to stop smoking we have this truly remarkable guarantee. Think about this a moment, have you ever gone to the doctor and they said to you “this treatment is guaranteed or you can get your money back!” … And their treatments are in the hundreds of thousands and tens of thousands of dollars, aren’t they?
My “whatever it takes commitment”: first we have a one-year coaching program that free with the program to help either keep you from smoking cigarettes or should you start again to get you ready to be smoke free for life. Second, we come back to each area 2 to 3 times per year and we offer you a lifetime membership to any one of our seminars should you ever need reinforcement, or should you start again or should not work the first time. Third, if none of those work, you can get your money back up to one year after the program! I think you could see, I stand behind this program and it’s really your best chance, once again providing that sincerely want to stop, to never smoke again.
Kind regards,

I've smoked for 55 years. I registered in this program. Going in with a positive attitude, I felt strongly, it would work. I retained my workbook for future reference. I received a CD for reinforcement. They will even sell you vitamins needed at a reduced rate to help you get started. The Hypnosis was pleasant. I never felt out of control at any time. I walked away knowing I am no longer a smoker. I'm finally free after 55 years!
Thank you for assisting me with this process!

All I can say is it was very informative about how to extinguish any craving and rebuild the fat burning inferno smoking destroyed. And bottom line is I haven't smoked a ciggarette or dipped any snuff... ty guys.
