Martin & Marion’s other titles written with Fiona Graham:
Gastric Mind Band® – Martin and Marion Shirran with Fiona Graham
The idea of using the subconscious, rather than invasive gastric band surgery, to convince people they can eat no more than a fraction of their stomach’s normal capacity – Gastric Mind Band the book caught the public’s imagination.
The unusual therapy underpins CBT (Cognitive Behaviour Therapy) NLP (Neuro–Linguistic Programming) and Hypnotherapy – in the form of self-hypnosis – to ensure readers actually start changing their whole relationship with food permanently, rather than simply opting for a short–term ‘diet’-type solution. Published by Hay House in 2013.
Pause Button Therapy® – Martin and Marion Shirran with Fiona Graham 
How helpful would it be if we could occasionally just pause, freeze time for a few moments and consider the consequences of the actions we are about to take?
Pause Button Therapy the book is a proven, innovative and interactive therapy technique that allows you to do exactly this, empowering you to break free from negative habits and unconscious responses. PBT is based on an incredibly simple idea, but can be used for a whole host of issues. It provides additional thinking time, allowing a person to consider the potential outcomes of their actions and adjust their behaviour accordingly.
PBT has been hugely successful in the treatment of everything from addictions and weight issues to depression, anxiety and relationship problems. The book shows readers the many ways in which they can use the technique to transform their experiences of life. Published by Hay House in 2012.
