The course holds your hand while learning the system. Either way you need to apply what you learn. With the tapes you have the steps and exercises that help you to break through some of those barriers. Some of us can read and reread a book and still miss an important exercise or idea that we need to apply in order to make it work for us. The tapes are layed out so that we are doing the necessary steps in order and helping us to see what should be happening as we proceed.
