Volume 1, Issue 9

 
Welcome!

Yes, I admit it - I'm a Canadian Idol fan! I have always loved watching talent shows, whether on television or going to kids' dance school recitals.

I admire the courage and drive it takes to put yourself out there to be judged. All performers do it, visual artists do it, writers do it, and right now I'm doing it. Opening up and letting you see the unguarded, thoughtful and creative side.

Just think how much richer our world would be if more business people did that. If the people who run countries did that. Have the courage to show who they really are. Wow -- what a concept!

And what about you....? How much of yourself do you allow others to see?

Namaste,
Georgina
Getting Beyond Stuck
by Dr. Georgina Cannon

A man walked down to the train station, whistling a happy tune. He was excited to start his travels, and to see and experience many marvelous things.

He arrived at the station and walked up to the ticket counter. "I'd like a ticket, please," the man said.

"Sure," said the ticket seller. "Where to?"

The man looked confused. "I don't know. I just want a ticket. Can't you sell me one?"

The ticket seller explained that a destination was required in order to issue a ticket. The man left, feeling stuck in his place. He wanted to go!

Are you that man?

It seems obvious that to buy a ticket to ride a train, you need to have destination. But when it comes to life, many of us have trouble seeing that the same rule applies.

The Universe is the ticket seller. It has the ability to send you anywhere you'd like to go -- but you have to tell It exactly where that is!

If you're feeling stuck, chances are very good that it's because you don't know where you want to go. "I want to be happy" or "I want more money" are not destinations you can move towards. They are like the man in our story saying, "I want to get on the train."

To move beyond stuck, you need to be specific about what you want. Start by describing your destination or final outcome in minute detail. I call this a future memory. Make it so real that it seems like it has already happened!

Then work backwards from that point to determine the steps that are required to get you there. For example, let's say your "destination" was to take a 4-day bike trip through Vermont.

In order to ride for four days in a row, you would first need to practice long rides. But before you could practice long rides, you would first need to buy an appropriate bike. But before you could buy an appropriate bike, you would first need to save some money.

Keep working backwards until you've reached your current situation and have accounted for everything that's needed to achieve your future memory. You now have a roadmap to guide you in your journey.

Take each step one by one and celebrate small victories as you go. Stay on course and you will arrive where you want to be!

One More Intake Question
by Susan Jennifer Grace, C.Ht

I just finished a 90-minute intake/ hypnosis session with a new client who suffers from insomnia. As always, my intake was very thorough, especially since I know that insomnia is very often a symptom of something else.
I checked for any medications, medical issues, stress, anxieties, any poor snacking-at-bedtime habits, caffeine intake, alcohol, nicotine, any habitual viewing of action movies or news programs before bed, and so on.

Since my client is a retired gentleman aged about 75, we also discussed age-related sleep patterns and everything else that I was able to find out from www.sleepfoundation.org regarding insomnia.

The intake alone lasted for over an hour. No serious health issues came to light.

During the intake, I noticed that he seemed to have a problem with his hearing. He confirmed that he was a tad hard of hearing but that his left ear was reasonably good. Upon my questioning, he reassured me that he did not need to see my lips in order to hear my words, as long as I spoke loudly enough and slowly enough. We agreed that he would use his index fingers to indicate if I was speaking too quietly or too fast.

Good. I felt totally prepared to facilitate a wonderful hypnosis session for him. I decided to use the PRI for this first session because I wanted him to learn how to use the relaxation process at night.

My client moved from the "intake" chair to the "hypnosis" chair (that always gets the clients in the right mindset!)

I sat on the left-hand side of my client, so that I could speak into his left ear. From this angle, I had a clear view of both of his hands and one side of his face. I began with the PRI script and got to the part at the beginning that says, "You can close your eyes now and relax..."

I glanced sideways at his face and observed that his eyes were still open.

I repeated the suggestion, speaking a tad louder this time, assuming that his deafness is worse than he had told me.

"You can close your eyes now and relax..."

Again, I glanced over at the side of his face and observed that his eyes were still wide open.

Once again, I repeated the suggestion, using his name this time and speaking just a tad LOUDER...

"MARK*, you can CLOSE your eyes and RELAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAX..."

At which point, he turned to me and said apologetically, "Oh dear, I suppose I should have told you. This left eye is a GLASS eye. It never closes unless I manually close it. But really, my right eye WAS closed."

Well, we both broke up laughing at that! One more question to add to my long intake questionnaire: "Any glass eyes that you care to tell me about?"

* Not his real name.
