Welcome |
I've just
returned from a terrific trip to see my sister in
Israel. She and her family -- more of a tribe actually!
-- live on a kibbutz just outside of Jerusalem. The
family was fun, the weather good, the scenery beautiful
and of course, as always, the country is magical. Truly
a miracle country. |
 |
If you're a history,
architecture, art, geology, comparative religion or sociology
buff, don't be put off by the media stories -- Israel is safe
and fabulous to visit.
While I was there, my sister
asked me to talk about hypnosis to her English-speaking class
at the main Israel TV station (like our CBC). It was an honour
and delight. This photo shows you the on-air personalities,
producers and news directors, plus my sister (back row, white
blouse) the English teacher.
More excitement -- we can now publicize VIBE,
the extraordinary vitamin drink that most of us in the clinic
take. Now you know why we all have so much energy. Even the
water is specially treated so that the nutrients go straight
into your cells and nothing is wasted. Powerful and wonderful
stuff!
But don't take my word for it, visit
their web site and check out the research. You can either
order a trial bottle or go for automatic shipping. If you want
more information contact me or Tariq in the office.
Ready for the holidays? Remember your de-stress
program! We've been talking to the media about how the
holidays are no fun if you're too stressed to enjoy them.
Relax -- it's meant to be an enjoyable season.
Namaste,
Georgina

| The Art of Silence |
| by Rohit
Bhalunkar | |
|
|
Last week I visited an isolated hill
station in western India, with no vehicle access roads
and zero mobile phone range. While enjoying nature, I
also spent some time practicing Vipasyana (solitude).
Do you sometimes feel that you have too little
time and too much to do? Do you sometimes feel
overwhelmed with all the demands of work, pressures of
home, and the complexities of modern life? Most people
are busy being busy. It's a "production" mindset. I'd
like to introduce you to a "productivity" mindset. The
way in is by practicing Vipasyana.
Solitude is
the art of silence that is practised by reducing
communication with your surroundings for a specific
duration. Your feelings, your emotions, are the access
point to your inner powers of mind. The most important
part in the process of getting in touch with your
feelings is to begin to practice solitude on a regular
basis. The greatest men and women of all ages have
practiced solitude regularly. They learned how to use
silence to still their minds and tap into their
superconscious powers for answers to their questions.
Solitude requires that you sit quietly and
perfectly still, with you back and head erect and your
eyes open, without any interruptions for at least an
hour. Become completely relaxed and breathe deeply. Just
let your mind flow. Don't deliberately try to think
about anything. The harder you "don't try," the more
powerfully it works. After 20 or 25 minutes, you'll
begin to feel deeply relaxed. You'll begin to experience
a flow of energy coming into your mind and body.
The incredible thing about solitude is that if
it is done correctly, a stream, a river, of ideas will
flow through your mind. You'll think about countless
subjects in an uncontrolled stream of consciousness.
Your job is just to relax and listen to your inner
voice.
Try and take small periods of silence and
solitude during the day, especially when you feel
overwhelmed with problems or responsibilities. One good
idea can save you months and years of hard work.

| Echoes of Howling |
| by Julie
Griffin | |
|
|
 |
Today's steady howling
wind is shaking loose the leaves that attempt to
hang to the trees. It is the leaves' pathetic
attempt to cling to the memory of Summer that held
them up and warmed them, like a proud new mother.
My squash vines and flowering mums have folded
over, crumpled up, gone to sleep.
|
The sound of yesterday's
driving rain was pleasant, but this howling wind is not
so sweet, not so soothing. Like an eerie echoing chamber
of darkened gusts, the howling moves through to my core,
making me shiver, even though my home is warm. It is not
a pretty sound, so devoid it seems of warmth and
comfort.
The time changed last night. We lost an
hour. What does that mean? Where did it go? I want it
back. I wonder if we demanded a few hours back, if we
could have Summer again? Maybe we should all revolt
against time and demand Summer's return. Where is she? I
miss her. I miss the flowers in her hair. I miss the way
she smells.
Lucky was I to ever have experienced
such supreme splendor. Lucky, now, to be housed in a
warm home full of love, as the wind howls and the nights
grow longer. Lucky to have faith in so many people and
so many things, especially now, the faith that Winter
will not reign forever!
I am embarrassed to
admit how much I miss the Maiden Summer, with her many
noble companions: the flowers and grass, the waves of
heat she emitted, her fragrance, the lightning bugs, her
frothy ocean waves, and the biggest and littlest of
butterflies -- all her jewelry, her finery, her
everflowing garb. I remember the salt she put on my lips
when I kayaked in the harbor. I could drift in the sea
of Summer with no other breaks in the seasons. Summer is
my soulmate, the most beautiful note in my scale, the
most fetching princess.
If you hear from Summer,
please tell her I still love her.

medical clinical hypnotherapist, author and teacher. You
