From Amazon.com:
The two programs on this DVD feature psychotherapist and bestselling author Dr. Wayne Dyer, who offers pointers on getting what you "really, really, really, really" want (each "really" turns out to be significant) as well as a lecture entitled "Improve Your Life Using the Wisdom of the Ages." Dyer's books have been very successful over the past two decades, and those who feel they've benefited from his approachable blend of pop psychology and inspirational speaking will no doubt find much value in what he says in these lectures. Despite an overblown introduction that describes him as "America's foremost teacher of transformational wisdom," Dyer comes across as a knowledgeable yet self-effacing fellow in a comfortable sweater. With a plain-spoken style sprinkled with references to his wife and their eight children, as well as copious mentions of literary figures, teachers, and healers from a broad range of cultures, he devotes more than an hour to describing how you can determine what you really want and how you can go about getting it by returning to "your sacred, higher self." In the second lecture on this disc, Dyer, by utilizing examples from what he calls "ancient wisdom," talks at some length about "finding within yourself what you are here for."

General Content: I’ve listened to numerous Wayne Dyer audio books and live lectures. However, I had never seen any of his videos so I was excited to rent this title. It consists of two live lectures (each a little under 90 minutes). The first was entitled “How to Get What You Really, Really, Really, Really Want” (Reviewer’s note: Did they really need that many reallys?). This lecture focused on Dyer’s theory of intention and observation that people tend to get what they focus on. The second was entitled “Improve Your Life Using the Wisdom of the Ages”. In this lecture, Dyer references his book “Wisdom of the Ages” and the lessons that can be learned from spiritual masters such as Buddha, Jesus, Emily Dickinson and others.
Both lectures were well done and contained great content. I’ve told many people that if you’re simply reading Dyer, you’re probably missing out. He has such a wonderful soothing speaking voice which makes listening to his live lectures and audio books a real treat. Having said that, the video doesn’t add a whole lot to this content. I felt that I could have listened to these lectures on audio and not really missed anything. That’s not necessarily a criticism of the product, just an observation.
If you’ve never been to a Wayne Dyer lecture and would like to see what you’re missing, I would encourage you to check this title out. Dyer has some wonderful wisdom to pass along to those who are open and willing to receive it.
Video-Specific Content: I watched this title on DVD (1 disc, approx. 3 hours, rented from Netflix). The video was clear and both the picture quality and sound quality were well done. There were some video montage interludes to break up the live presentation but I’m not really sure that these added anything to the production. Overall, this was a high-quality presentation.
