The Enticement of Distress I was in a hypnotherapy session with a client who was very sincere about accommodating well-being, however, the person finds themself in a tumultuous relationship with their mate. The tit-for-tat, the back and forth, the who’s right and wrong of it all – very exasperating, taxing, and stressful for the client. [...]

U R ENOUGH In client session work, I, when called for, engage a particular therapeutic hypnosis imagery process to align a person’s subconscious self-perception with a true recognition of their enoughness – that you are enough, in spite of the world’s propaganda designed to exploit vulnerability.  In a world that conditions the perception that you [...]

How to empower trust Going to take a most unorthodox approach (don’t all these newsletter posts do that?) to the idea of trust. We all know the familiar troupes, “Trust your intuition,” “Trust your first mind” “Trust but verify,” “Trust is earned,” … and the many subjective variations and themes on this idea of trust. [...]

Would anything be significant in your life if the past wasn’t its reference point? Interesting question. Would joy be relevant if past joy or sorrow was not used as contrast? These questions are not about existential navel-gazing, but rather, a pointed examination of how relevant the past is to the potential of now. We filter [...]

“All the world’s a stage.” This indelible quote from William Shakespeare’s “As You Like It”, sums up the programing of programming. All that we experience and witness on any level – physical, psychological, or circumstantial, is the consequence of absorbed mental programming. Understand this and all problems are solved. Sound to simple? A program is [...]
