HYPNOSIS - HYPNOTHERAPY

Good News - - Good News - - Good News
A child I recently worked with made me a “Good News” banner with a butterfly on it to announce he felt his Mother would make it, even though grief had been a scary thing for this family. See the handiwork of this child and the butterfly picture.

The butterfly brought back a memory which our nephew still brings up occasionally. We had taken visiting family to the Butterfly pyramid in Galveston, Texas. Our nephew was only nine, but already interested in butterflies and science. When we went to the hatching hut for butterflies, one butterfly, just out of the chrysalis, flew to a noticeable spot on Dr. Martin’s pants and stayed there fanning its wings. Dr. Martin had been mentored by Dr. Ormond McGill on butterflies with their having many excursions together with butterfly nets. He knew the butterfly had to continue the fanning of its wings in order to survive. For that reason, he did not touch the butterfly which looked just like this butterfly the child found to make an announcement to me. From that butterfly being on his pants, we met many people during the hour it took for the butterfly to fan. Dr. Martin was a good sport and our nephew still remembers that day with good memories.
When I saw the words GOOD NEWS on the child’s banner, I thought of all the words we have all been hearing lately. I also thought of those who try to teach us to guard our words and our thoughts. It doesn’t matter if it is a very traditional teacher of religion like Gloria Copeland of Copeland Ministries (who has produced success from her teachings of positive thoughts and words) or if on the other end of the spectrum of life, Dr. Deepak Chopra (also successful in his teachings of positive words and thoughts), we must watch what we send out to the world as our words.
One of the people who has positively impacted the world with her TV program about angels, felt it necessary to make a video about this. Please take the time to watch her very positive spin on what is happening now in the world.

Hypnosis Weight Loss helps Keep it Off
Now that we are in a better frame of mind from watching that uplifting video, we will share some good news with you . We received a picture of one of our former students from our franchisee in Houston. She and Mike Shuman had joined together to market hypnosis in a local mall in a Houston suburb. She sent pictures of that day. Mike may have not known about her making or sending the pictures. We were very happy to see his picture because it shows he is successfully maintaining his weight loss. When Mike came to our classes in Houston several years ago, he was definitely experiencing stress. He was considering retiring from a thirty year job. He had been successful on this job, but part of him had felt it was time to move on to the next stage of his life. In the stress of his job and making decisions, he had added lots of weight. This weight was very dangerous weight which would have perhaps led to heart problems or stroke by medical statistics.
He himself described himself as looking like a “ beached whale”. Well, in this un-posed picture sent to us, his day-to-day way of life now is of a man who is healthier, happier, and maintaining a healthier weight as a Houston hypnotist.
View his new picture .
During our year weight loss program with the group who volunteered, we worked on weight and mental causes of weight. Our subconscious suggestions through hypnosis were for desires for healthy ways of eating. From that year came all kinds of ways of eating and lots of weight loss.
The history of the participants was that unrefined carbohydrates appeared to assist where refined carbohydrates did not assist. People also went to extreme in their denial, at first, trying to find the “perfect” way to eat. During the year, lots of weight was lost beating out one celebrity who started her weight loss the same month for Jenny Craig. Also, national media has shown that she was unable to maintain her weight loss. One probability was that she did not release her causes . Also, we don’t know it, but feel some were rooting for her not to make it and saboteurs probably were in her world. Anyway, one of the diets the group incorporated partially was the Atkins Diet.
As it turns out, mainstream medicine felt they had to test that diet again with a desire to disprove Dr. Atkins claims that the diet actually lowered bad cholesterol. In the national news the end-result of these national studies by very conservative medical groups was recently released again.
The results are found in the Associated Press article by Mike Stobbe. We saw it in the July 17, 2008, write up in the Birmingham News and while reading it, a light went off bigtime. See article in the write-ups of our weight loss year group if you want to read it in its entirety.
This very traditional medicine story showed Dr. Atkins was right. Diets low in refined carbohydrates, produce the most weight loss and also lower bad cholesterol.
The light that went off in our reading it was: one can use the main structure of the Atkins Diet leaving off any catalyst foods which one doesn’t want to eat.
There are proteins which are plant related and protein drinks to provide catalytic results. There is no need to do red meat (if you are repulsed by red meat), no need to do whipped cream (if whipped cream seems too flamboyant), and no need to get into extremes. A couple in the one year group developed a good eating plan from raw and they turn out wonderful meals with good protein and no meat.
In later Monthly Updates, we will come up with some varied ideas of eating in a low-carbohydrate manner. It will be fun to incorporate what different people have done as ways to maintain their weight.
One of the weight loss participants contacted us with a light going off for her also: she suddenly discovered what we already knew, but she didn’t. She had saboteurs who did not want her changing. We feel the inner programming gave her enough foundation to be able to let the denial break and , hopefully, enough self love to nurture self. What we would like to say to her is: once people see that the sabotage is falling on deaf ears and will not be a temptation point, they usually stop after trying to sabotage the effort.
Anyway, Dr. Atkins, as a cardiologist, held his belief, which he had proven and the medical studies have proven him right. He died before the final vindication, however.
Another Serendepity of Hypnosis is Creativity
We have spoken to you in other month’s about a client coming to work on his addiction. This man has been successful in letting go of his gambling addiction. However, other things have happened to his life from the positive suggestion hypnosis. He felt it was connected to his working on self love, success, and health along with the gambling addiction, which brought some of this new behavior into his life. This is what has happened to him:
Part of his reason for gambling was fear related to finances even though he is a CPA. These fear thoughts had gone into his subconscious from past experiences, negative talk and comments he had accepted subconsciously. As he released these, he got a new job with a very successful company.
He also got an idea which came to him in this job. His company does demolition work and carried the rubble to landfills. The client’s job was to keep track of the projects and the monetary end of all of this. He observed the buildings being demolished and saw that all the building materials were being taken to the landfill and not recycled. He envisioned a plan to recycle those materials. And even make money doing it.
From this he developed a recycling plan to reclaim the materials and it saved over $6,000.00 worth of material in the first 5 days using the same labor crew. Then he had the idea of learning all about recycling and green america. His employer is now assisting in paying for his education, and he is becoming a Certified LEEDs Specialist. There are only a few of these reclamation specialists in the United States and it will prove to be very lucrative savings for his company rather than carrying everything to the landfill. A Certified LEEDs Consultant is a new job which has been created to assist the world through the return to the "Green concept". By changing his mind, this man will be one of the few Certified LEEDs Specialists in the country.
This is what the media is now saying about “Green” and “Assisting with the Trash” Problem
.
This client knows that through his subconscious work the idea for specializing in a new field came to his mind. We are very happy for him.
Tree drawings assist Hypnotherapy
I was pleasantly surprised to get a wonderful email from one of our former students, Brenda Kindel. She is an Instructor, Doula, and Hypnotist with a private practice in Houston. Her wonderful website address will be on the email she sent to us which you can read and view. She sent a drawing produced by a child adding to our drawing site on our website. This child may produce other drawings which we will incorporate. Viewing the drawing and interpretation shows how the subconscious can reproduce what has happened and personality through drawing symbols which can be interpreted. Thanks for this, Brenda. Click here to see her email and the tree.
Also, next month, we will add Mandala Drawings with interpretations to that drawing part of our website. We had someone contribute to the artistic side of our website saying they wanted to see more because they feel it is a positive for the mind to view. We are producing more for viewing and developing our creative parts of our website.
We thank the mandala contributors and they can view their interpretations in next month’s Monthly Update along with four who contributed earlier.
Carl Jung used mandalas without interpretation for healing. He was a phenomenal healer. He felt, and proved that, just creating the mandala and viewing others mandalas powerfully assisted healing. Interpretation assists us in understanding the blueprint of our mind and where we are at a particular time with it also showing what is coming up for us. For those reasons, interpretation is also valuable even though the mind does not have to have the interpretation in order to stimulate healing.
We are thrilled that prayers were answered for friends, family, and students regarding the recent weather in Houston. Last night the weather channel had a story on the Galveston Flood of September 1900. In that weather channel documentary were actual footage filmed by an assistant of Thomas Edison. It was said in the documentary that 15,000 were lost rather than the 9,000 often quoted. We are so glad that Hurricane Ike did not produce the same level of destruction this time.
Hypnosis is a wonderful tool. If you need private sessions or in-home healing hypnosis sessions on CD, these are available and we have shared some of the beneficial results. It doesn’t matter if your topic is weight loss, stop smoking, super learning, or assistance with healing (hypnosis can enhance whatever treatment you are using), cellular releasing™ and Cell Command® are powerful adjunctive tools of good. They also produce powerful results on their own if not used adjunctively.
Please Read - - Addendum to Update
We just received the following email from one of the students studying in Houston. We offer deepest condolences to Melodie Steele and her family. We thank Bobbie Benedict for putting the information in a beautiful, Heavenly format honoring Melodie's Mother. We hope Melodie's friends get the information to assist with her honoring of her Mother. Click here to read the email.
Hope you all are living a Wonder-filled Life,
Cheryl Martin
