American Health Magazine reported the following findings from a recent study.

Psychoanalysis: 38% recovery after 600 sessions

Behavior Therapy: 72% recovery after 22 sessions

Hypnotherapy: 93% recovery after 6 sessions

The majority of people believe hypnosis is a last resort tool for smoke cessation, weight loss or changing habits. Few people know hypnosis is a dynamic and vital healing process embracing all aspects of mental health care. Hypnosis is client-centered with its focus on the discovery of the origin of a person’s issues. Through the process of hypnosis/regression the unconscious mind goes to the original cause, which then gives the person and practitioner the opportunity to process the original feelings surrounding the original experience/cause. These surrounding feelings can be healed, thus empowering the person to live the life they want to live.

This study clearly points outHypnosis is more effective and works more quickly than traditional talk-therapy or psychoanalysis. In a hypnotic state, you are more receptive to new ideas and you can more effectively process the emotions linked to the experiences, which created pain, fear, sadness, anger, guilt, shame, humiliation and low self-esteem.

Hypnosis is a special form of communication to the subconscious mind where habits are established and memory is stored. Because the language of the subconscious mind is visual, the more detailed your image is of your goal, the faster your subconscious mind will create the changes you desire. Once your subconscious accepts a new idea, you automatically accept it at a conscious level.

Hypnosis is a natural state of the mind that is between the aware state and sleep. Driving a route you are familiar with and not being conscious of every turn you make is similar to the hypnotic state. Hypnosis allows you to access your subconscious mind, which makes up 90% of your brain which stores all memory. With hypnosis, you reprogram and release thought patterns and habits to make desirable, lasting changes in your life.

You are in control: Hypnosis is completely relaxing and you are completely aware during the experience. It’s a myth that someone is making you do something. The hypnotherapist helps you connect with your subconscious mind, which puts YOU in control of your subconscious mindthe most powerful and empowering aspect of your brain. Hypnosis restores your freedom of choice, which you haven’t had in many years!

Do you feel awkward or uncomfortable at social/business events? You are not alone. While social/business events can be enjoyable, especially when you are surrounded by people whom you enjoy, there are social/business events that you might wish you were someplace else. Such occasions can sometimes be the cause of anxiousness and self-consciousnessheart palpitating and/or sweaty palms. You may even feel like everyone else is having a good time except for you.

The truth is others have felt awkward and uncomfortable on such occasions. Contrary to what pharmaceutical companies and medical doctors want you to believe, one of the best ways to overcome anxiousness and self-consciousness at social/business events or to get past your feeling of shyness is to focus on the people around you. Remember that other people might also be feeling awkward or shy. Armed with this awareness, you can become the bridge for others and yourself to feel comfortable by using a few easy techniques.

The next time you are obligated to attend a social/business event and you are feeling awkward or uncomfortable use this exercise before going.

Close your eyes and breathe deeply

Visualize yourself surrounded in a warm white light that is protective yet allows you to interact with people.

Visualize people smiling and radiating warmth and friendliness.

Visualize people at the event being drawn to you because of the open and warm feelings that you are radiating.

Visualize yourself arriving at the eventtake a moment to spread this same light of loving acceptance to everyone around you.

Visualize yourself smiling and greeting people warmly.

Visualize yourself moving around the room, smiling and introducing yourself. Ask the person, how they know the host/hostess, where they live, etc. If this is a work related event, ask people what department or location they are in the company. Ask what they do for funhobbies, sports, interests, travel. As you learn about them, you can interject the same information about yourself. The one thing you might not learn is whether they feel awkward and uncomfortable attending social/business events. If they doyou have helped them learn a way to reduce that feeling.

Remember when you radiate acceptance, openness and receptivity, people will respond in kind.

Repeat this exercise two times each day for three days before the event.

When you attend the social/business event it will seem as though you have been there feeling comfortable and confident, because the mind does not distinguish between actual events and visualized events.

Focusing on how you can make other people at a social/business event feel at ease can help you feel at ease too. In the process, you will have fun learning about others, making new friends or connections.

The next time you attend a social/business event, invite people to join you in your zone of comfort that you have so lovingly and intentionally created. Let yourself enjoy being encircled in the warmth of your creation.

The Self-Deprecating person uses self-deprecating statements to avoid standing out or to avoid engendering positive recognition. A person, who has high self-esteem make statements that clearly and concisely state their truth. We are all meant to shine; each in our own unique way.

Some people use self-deprecating statements to shrink, so that other people won’t feel insecure around them. Some people self-deprecate so others won’t blame them for being conceited or arrogant or criticize them. Some people put themselves down in the hopes others will build them up. This can be an opportunity for an act of kindness on your part.

True humility is awareness of ones strengths coupled with the awareness that we all have unique gifts. There is a difference between boasting and sharing ones accomplishments with those who will be happy to hear. Strategic self-effacement can be advisable, but not if it is an expression of inferiority feelings.

Stop people from putting themselves down. Every self inflicted put-down statement adds to a person’s lack of belief in him/herself and his/her abilities. Many people who tend to do this need someone else to give them permission to stop doing it.

The following statements are a few examples how you can avoid joining the Self-Deprecator and helping them to stop the put-downs.

S: “I’m not so smart. But if it were me, I think”

R: “You are entitled to state your opinion. Your opinion is as valid as anyone else’s. If your idea is good, that in itself is testimony to your smarts.”

S: “I didn’t do a very good job. But I worked hard on this project.”

R: “If you did your bestthat is what is important. You have a right to tell me that you worked hard on this project without minimizing your performance.”

S: “I never do anything right.”

R: “Never is an absolutethere aren’t any absolutes. It is worthwhile to be more objective about what you do well and what you don’t.”

S: “My memory is like a sieve.”

R: “Fortunately you remember a vast number of things. Every time you remember something, let it register that your brain has a tremendous storage and retrievable system.”

S: “I’m always putting myself down.”

R: “It’s great that you are doing so now. It gives me an opportunity to help you change this pattern/habit.”
