The Flashes of Triumph: Hypnotherapy

Being hip with hypnotherapy

Strategic, tactical analysis and constant price fluctuation makes a trader like me in constant stress and chaos. The previous week was a total wreck for me. I was really going berserk when I found out my secretary accidentally put in some investment on the wrong currency.

Fortunately for me, I still had a great and wonderful experience over the weekend. I was introduced to hypnotherapy, and that encounter changed my perspective positively drastic. My cousin went to visit me on a Sunday, saw how I was still agitated and said “hey, come with me!”

We went to a suburb area, parked her car into a posh looking Mediterranean inspired house with a landscaped garden. I was getting more agitated because I still had to device ways and analyze how to lessen the collateral damage to recover my lost investment.
She literally dragged me out of her car! We went in and was greeted by a pleasant man of about forty years, with a round-rimmed glasses and calmly face. He was a hypnotherapist. I was told to lie down in a comfy couch and close my eyes. All I can hear was the sound of my breathing and his soothing voice. He told me to let go of everything and leave my mind blank as he started to count backwards.
I was in a trance.

Adlib of trance

I later researched what trance meant by definition. Trance s a process by which hypnotherapy helps clients attain a particular state of consciousness. In this state, a client is more open to suggestion and can easily change how one thinks, feels or behaves. Trance is a pleasant experience like a relaxed state like moments directly before sleep.

IN Transit (Trance it)

Now back to my journey in trance, funny how my unforgettable adventure just popped in my head when the hypnotherapist said “one”.
I was excited and nervous all at the same time, hiking up the paved walk in the woody terrain. My hands were cold as ice and I was shaking a little. I smiled when I saw the pit stop, our jump off point.

I’m going to fly through a zipline adventure! When I reached the top , I felt dizzy just by glancing down at the small trees that used to be huge when I passed by it. The operator fastened me in place with the safety vests, I was ready to fly. I slowly opened my eyes as I felt the gush of air on my face, the waterfalls cascading magnificently on the spectral rainbow, the monkey jumping from tree to another tree while I was enjoying the moment with no frills, and no worries. At that time, I was exhilarated about what I felt and what my festive eyes can see. Truly the blessing of Mother Nature.
The flashes of triumph, victory and success followed. I had conquered all my fears except that of being on a losing ground. I am instinctively an achiever and it really gets into my nerves when I’m defeated. A voice resounded in my head filling my consciousness with reassuring, emboldening words that stimulates my inner being.
And snap, I was out of my reverie.
After that, I have never been disheartened whenever I experience loss. That hypnotherapy was an experience in a lifetime. Since then, I advocate hypnosis by encouraging people to undergo a hypnotherapy.

The Real Deal
Hypnotherapy is a useful tool for solving physical, emotional and behavioral problems. Hypnotherapy has a proven track record as an effective method for helping people around the world overcome a wide variety of problems.
Hypnosis is a natural process by which a hypnotherapist places a person in trance. Hypnotherapy is not the same as stage hypnosis, because that kind of hypnosis uses the technique for mere entertainment or for profit. The stage hypnotist creates a show in which the power of hypnosis is used to encourage participants to behave in a bizarre and entertaining way.
What’s the use?
Hypnotherapy is a useful technique when you have a personal problem you want to get rid of, some are as follows:
Behavioral realm: these can include overcoming smoking, over eating, being a drunkard and getting rid of other addictive behaviors. It can possibly help with insomnia and disturbed sleep.
Emotional realm: the problem areas may include fear and anxiety like phobias, panic attacks, and nervousness.
Physical realm: areas of muscular tension and chronic pain. It is both relaxing and it alters the brain perceives pain to reduce its intensity.

Dr. Do Little
Yes, I know you also want to seek the help of a hypnotherapist –fast! You also have to be cautious before you book your hypnotherapy appointment.
First, you have to get a little background check on a specific therapist. Currently there is no law that regulates the field of hypnotherapy, this means that anyone can just practice with little or no training at all.
Second, in choosing the therapist, credibility and experience must be criteria. They must be able to show their commitment through Continuous Professional Development in all forms of hypnotherapy.

Use or nuisance
Hypnotherapy is quick and effective; it may work where other field of study may have failed. If you are carrying a big baggage on your shoulder, there is no harm in trying this technique.
Have a good life!

Why Abraham-Hicks Principles Are Considered the Most Effective Way to Create the Life You Desire

The advent of the law of attraction movement has been rapidly and completely embraced by millions around the world because so many people find it to be effective for getting real results with positive transformation. These principles have been around in various forms for thousands of years and are contained in many of the wisdom traditions of the world. For this reason, there is no one person who can claim to be the sole author of this principle.

Positivism or the law of attraction is the core principle of many theories and methods that revolve around self development nowadays. All of the available methods that aim to help people be the best they can be promote affirmative thinking though there are variations and slight differences on how each school of thought choose to view or practice it. There are also many motivational speakers and life coaches who advocate the law of attraction and interestingly many trace their own enlightenment on this subject back to Esther Hicks and Abraham. Some who openly give credit to Abraham-Hicks are Wayne Dyer, Michael Losier, author of the book, Law of Attraction, and Joe Vitale, author of The Attractor Factor.

The Abraham-Hicks Teachings

One principle that strongly deals with positivism was developed by Esther Hicks and her husband Jerry. Born in 1948 in Utah, USA, Esther Hicks is another inspirational speaker and bestselling author. She had written a number of motivational books together with her husband. She is the narrator in the documentary film, The Secret which features the popular book written by Rhonda Byrne.

The principle that this couple preaches came to be known as the Abraham-Hicks teachings because they claim that Esther Hickcs are receiving communication from non-physical entities called Abraham. Apparently, the said non-physical entitles conveyed the message that Esther Hicks are sharing to the world through her books, speeches and workshops.

Esther also said that her books are all a product of her interaction with this group of entities that only she can see or feel. She explained the reason why she can sense them and receive their messages by saying that it is possible when she taps infinite intelligence.

The basic creed of Abraham-Hicks teachings is that humans create their own happiness or misfortune through their thoughts and emotions. She also said that life is not meant for suffering; rather its end goal is happiness.

Esther Hicks and her works have a number of supporters but there are also a good number of critics as well. She had been criticized most specifically in the area that talks about the non-physical entities where she based her teachings.

However, looking past the criticisms, Esther Hicks also presented wonderful concepts that can help improve the quality of life, here are some of them:

Abraham-Hicks principles promote happiness. Contrary to other set of beliefs that say that life is hard and suffering is part of it, Esther Hicks said that a man’s sole purpose in life is to have fun. This is beneficial because in the light of adversity, people can be motivated to quickly rise from it because it creates negative emotions which are not at all designed for humans to feel. Promoting happiness encourages people to always see how he or she can enjoy life. In the end, in creating happiness for oneself, that person spreads happiness and blessings to the people around him, therefore contributes to making this world a better place.

Abraham-Hicks principles make one feel secure and worry-free. According to Esther Hicks, everything that a man needs will be given in time. We are living in a universe that knows what we want and would grant it at the right time. It gives hope to the people that no matter how difficult a certain situation may be, there is a universe that sees what they are going through and would help them to overcome it. She also said that humans can depart from body pains and illnesses. Death is also not a reality because the non-physical extension of ourselves is destined to everlasting life.

Abraham-Hicks principles promote self development and greatness. Esther Hicks teaches people to love and constantly improve themselves. Her teachings empower humans because it focuses on the power of the human mind and emotions. According to her, through the power of positive thinking, humans can have anything he imagines as long as he sets his heart and mind into it.

The most important thing is the results that many people claim to experience by putting these principles into practice. Creating new habits of focusing on the positive in all situations and deliberately imagining in detail the things that are desired has literally transformed the lives of many people. It is a simple shift but extremely powerful. Many people consider the original Abraham-Hicks book, Ask and it is Given to be the most important book of the century on how to get the results that you want in life.

Mind Your Thoughts and Language: Neuro-Linguistic Programming

Ever heard of the slip of the tongue theory? It means that out of the blue words or phrases that a person suddenly blurts out provide a clue as to what really goes on in one’s inner mind.

Do you remember the law of attraction which promotes affirmative thinking and encourages people to write down what they want to happen in their lives and claim it by saying it to themselves repeatedly for a certain period until the goal or dream is realized? This is the technique taught by Napolean Hill in the book, Think and Grow Rich in the 1920’s.

Do you believe that a lie told repeatedly becomes the truth? Consider this piece of fiction: a young woman can’t accept the fact that her husband has died so she went to another town where no one knew her and there she spread the lie that her husband is still alive. She spread the rumor that her husband is not with her because he has to work somewhere far. Would you believe that after some time of spreading these lies and with all the townspeople believing her, signs that her husband is indeed alive starts to manifest. The story may sound impossible but it simply demonstrates the power of the mind and language in shaping peoples thoughts and creating their reality.

All the above examples emphasize the relationship between the mind and language. Language and mind are two entities that cannot be separated because what one thinks comes out in the form of communication and what one say affects one’s mindset or attitude. This basic truth is the principle behind the Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) theory.

What is Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP)

The Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is a method developed during the 70’s by an information scientist, John Grinder and a linguist, Richard Bandler in an attempt to offer a way for people to get rid of unwanted behaviors and achieve success in life. They did this by observing the way successful people communicates verbally and non-verbally.

According to NLP, the nerve cells in the human brain sends information to the brain and language which moves through the nerve cells has a big influence in these pathways. As the name of this principle suggests, we can program our minds to generate desired action by manipulating our words and way of thinking.

The NLP said that the way a person reacts to a certain situation is affected by his or her experiences. That is the reason why different people react to similar situations differently. For example a person may look at the idea of public speaking a scary one because he had suffered embarrassment while speaking in front of a crowd as a child. On the other hand, the other person may look at public speaking a rewarding experience because he received an award on speech before.

How Can NLP Help People Reach Success

Based on their study of successful people’s behavior and communication patterns, Grinder and Bandler were able to identify patterns of thinking that contributes to ones success. They found out that successful people share similarities in the way they think, speak, act and respond to certain events.

Using the neuro-lingustic programming, the developers believe that they can help an individual learn healthy behaviors and thinking that would pave the way to greatness.

They explained that this is possible since the experiences of humans are stored in the brain, it can be manipulated to change thoughts that are stunting one’s growth and development. These can be done by closely looking at the words and feelings that one use and associates with a certain situations, people events, etc. Apparently a person’s subconscious or inner feelings can be revealed by studying ones facial expressions, body movements and the words or phrases he used to describe a situation. A trained neuro-linguist therapist is needed to guide the individual in this goal.

Once the trained therapist saw the problem that needs to be fixed and its underlying cause, the individual would then be guided to understand it. By using various tools such as Milton model, meta model, sensory acuity, submodalities and system representation, the therapist would then try to remodel one’s thoughts and mental associations to gradually erase preconceived notions that are causing the problems in one’s life. These can be then replaced by healthy attitudes and behaviors that would help one overcome fears and reach their dreams.
