Memories are Malleable

Richard Bandler, co-creator of NLP, once said, “It’s never too late to have a happy childhood.” At the time he said this back in the 1970s it was quite controversial and caused an uproar. But now that we have learned more about the brain and how it works, this statement can be better understood. You can’t change the past (unless you have a time machine you’re not telling anyone about). It happened. It is a fact. And, now, it is forever in our memory. The thing is, our memories aren’t factual and they aren’t fixed. Have you ever noticed talking…

Can I Be Hypnotized?

You may be thinking, “Hypnosis sounds wonderful, but can I be hypnotized?  I don’t think I can be.  I’m pretty stubborn, I don’t have a good attention span and I hate thought or the feeling of losing control.” You may be surprised to learn that you have experience hypnosis and going into trance on a daily basis.

Depression is a Bad Habit

Depression is a bad habit. That’s right, it’s a habit. It’s a compelling habit, but still a habit. Anything done with repetition, felt with repetition, and even thought with repetition creates a habituated pattern in the brain, in the body, and in the biochemistry regardless of cause. I don’t even need to hear the labels you have been given by others or by yourself. You are not your actions or emotions, so it’s time you quit defining yourself by them. You are not depressed. You feel a state of depression. That feeling is not you. It is an emotion created…

What Does Hypnotic Trance Feel Like?

What does it feel like to go into a hypnotic trance? What does hypnosis feel like? These are common questions I get from folks often. Another question I get from those that use my MP3 Deep-Relaxation audio is, “I catch my mind wandering while listening, is that okay? Is that supposed to happen, or am I doing something wrong? Does concentrating really hard on just following everything said in hypnosis increase its effects?” I help them set aside their fears and concerns by assuring them that ‘zoning out’ is okay and purely natural when going in to trance because your…

Rejection Is A Myth

Rejection is a Myth “A rejection is nothing more than a necessary step in the pursuit of success.” – Bo Bennett How can you say that? There’s no way that it is a myth. I have been rejected, so I know it is real. I’ll try to explain. How many times have you wanted to ask someone for something, but never followed through because you were afraid they would say no? You won’t try to close the sale for fear of the customer telling you no. You don’t ask the pretty girl out because you’re afraid she will say no.…

Hypnosis, What Is It?

What is hypnosis? Surrounded by stigma, mystery, and mythology, hypnosis carries a lot of misunderstandings about what it really is. It’s hard to get even the experts, at times, agree on what it is. Some people see it as a relaxed awareness. It can be, doesn’t have to be. If you look at the rallies of Hitler in WWII, you will see anything but a relaxed awareness. Those people were worked into a wild frenzy through hypnotic techniques. Some see hypnosis as some kind of mind control thing, where the subject is trying to resist and the hypnotist breaks down…

How Hypnosis Works To Bypass Your Critical Faculty To Make Positive Changes In Your Mind and Body

Think about your brain as if it were a crowded social gathering like a popular restaurant, bar, or nightclub. Imagine every person in that gathering represents a thought, belief, or experience in your mind. Now, they all seem to be getting along well with each other for the most part. Just like at any popular hotspot there is a line of people waiting to get in. These are also representative of thoughts, beliefs, and experiences. And, like any popular place, there is a guard or bouncer. This is known as the Critical Faculty that you have in your brain. What…
