Most of us have heard of "the placebo effect," the heal-inducing effect patients in clinical trials experience when they believe they're getting a fancy new drug or surgery but are actually getting fake treatment. The placebo effect is real, it works about 18-80% of the time, and it's not just in your head – it actually dilates bronchi, heals ulcers, makes warts disappear, drops your blood pressure, and even makes bald men who think they're getting Rogaine grow hair!

Unwanted Side Effects

But the placebo effect has a shadow side. The same mind-body power that can heal you can also
harm you. When patients in double-blinded clinical trials are warned about the side effects they may experience if they're given the real drug, approximately 25% experience sometimes severe side effects, even when they're only taking sugar pills.

Those treated with nothing more than placebos often report fatigue, vomiting, muscle weakness, colds, ringing in the ears, taste disturbances, memory disturbances, and other symptoms that shouldn't result from a sugar pill.

Interestingly, these nocebo complaints aren't random; they tend to arise in response to the side effect warnings on the actual drug or treatment. The mere suggestion that a patient may experience negative symptoms in response to a medication (or a sugar pill) may be a self-fulfilling prophecy.

For example, if you tell a patient treated with a placebo he might experience nausea, he's likely to feel nauseous. If you suggest that he might get a headache, he may. Patients given nothing but saline who thought it was chemotherapy actually threw up and lost their hair!

When You Think You're Going To Die…

In another study, patients about to undergo surgery who were "convinced" of their impending death were compared to another group of patients who were merely "unusually apprehensive" about death. While the apprehensive bunch fared pretty well, those who were convinced they were going to die usually did.

Similarly, women who believed they were prone to heart disease were four times more likely to die. It's not because these women had poorer diets, higher blood pressure, higher cholesterol, or stronger family histories than the women who didn't get heart disease. The only difference between the two groups was their beliefs.

The nocebo effect is probably most obvious in "voodoo death," when a person is cursed, told they will die, and then dies. The notion of voodoo death doesn't just apply to witch doctors in tribal cultures. The literature shows that patients believed to be terminal who are mistakenly informed that they have only a few months to live have died within their given time frame, even when autopsy findings reveal no physiological explanation for the early death.

Dr. Steve's Story

In response to what I said in my latest TEDx talk about the placebo effect's evil twin, "the nocebo effect," L. Chas sent me an email, telling me the story of her brother Steve, who was a physician diagnosed with the exact same illness that was his specialty. When he was diagnosed with malignant tumors in both lungs, he was told by his doctors that he had five years to live, and knowing what he knew about the disease, Steve believed this.

Exactly 5 years later, to the day, he was snorkeling in Maui when he was found, unconscious on the shore. Steve was resuscitated, but he had been without oxygen to the brain for over four minutes and wound up in a coma until his family chose to withdraw life support.

L. Chas wrote, "More than anything else, I think my brother believed that, when diagnosed with his disease, a patient has '5 good years left'. Just as you've said in your videos – the nocebo effect. So sad it had to go this way."

Medical Hexing

Every time your doctor tells you you have an "incurable" illness or that you'll be on medication for the rest of your life or that you have a 5% five year survival, they're essentially cursing you with a form of "medical hexing." They don't mean to. They're not trying to harm you. They know not what they do…

Doctors think they're telling it to you straight, that you deserve to know, that you should be realistic and make arrangements, if necessary. But when they say such things, they instill in your conscious and subconscious mind a belief that you won't get well, and as long as the mind holds this negative belief, it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. If you believe you'll never recover, you won't.

The Moral Of This Story

After reading through the 3500+ case studies documented in the medical literature in the Spontaneous Remission Project, which was compiled by the Institute of Noetic Sciences, I now believe there's no such thing as an incurable illness. If you or someone you love is suffering from a "chronic," "incurable," or "terminal" illness and you want to optimize the chance for spontaneous remission, you have to start by cleansing your mind of any negative beliefs that will sabotage your self-healing efforts. My upcoming book Mind Over Medicine: Scientific Proof That You Can Heal Yourself offers tips for how you can change your negative beliefs to positive ones in order to optimize your chances.

I acquired this picture "Daniel in The Lions Den & the 23rd Psalm", in an estate auction many years ago. It's unique in so many ways. The meaning behind it however is very spiritual: He states that Daniel is Every man, and how it applies to each difficulty that you have to overcome. He says Daniel prayed 3 times a day, clearing up his consciousness turning totally in thought to God and raising his thought process as high as he possibly could. This is praying scientifically. He talks about how the real causes of all our problems lie within ourselves and that the only enemies we have are our fears,, doubts, selfishness, negative thinking and so forth. So Daniel got in trouble and he relates this to us by saying anytime you are in trouble you are Daniel in the lion's den. The lion's will seem terribly ferocious; but pray until fear has begun to go; keep knowing the Truth; in face of all appearances; and you will come out of the lion's den safe and sound, without a single scratch. You will come out stronger and better for the ordeal because every problem thus overcome is a definite step upward int he growth of the soul. About the picture he says Daniel is not looking at the lion's, but is turning his back on them. The more we think over our difficulty the more we amplify it, and staring at the lions will make them grow and grow until they are as big as elephants. Daniel is shown looking up toward the light, a graphic representation fo the Practice of the Presence-and the lions, instead of looking ferocious or angry, seem good humored as they stroll around watching him curiously. He always refers to how we must "watch and pray" like the Jesus' said knowing how subtle are the temptations to step aside into our old errors. We must live throught demonstration, as soon as you know thy Truth about anything, you need to check upon your own daily conduct and demonstrate your self in such a manner. When we fail, we can only be failing ourself and setting ourself up for karma debt that will have to be paid at some point in time. He says thoughts are things and all potential or failure lies in their creative and constructive use.
The 23rd PSALM The Lord is My Shepherd- The Lord, my shepher, will take care of me. Realize this Truth and every negative thing in your life will vanish away.
I Shall Not Want- I firmly believe that I shall not want for any good thing.
He Maketh To Lie Down in Green Pastures- Green Pastures symbolize an abundance of all good things that I need, and perfect all around harmony in my life. To lie down in them means they are to be mine permanently and forever and not merely as a temporary demonstration. He Leadeth Me Beside The Still Waters- Water symbolizes the soul, so this means that the power of God in prayer set my soul at rest, giving me perfect peace. He Restoreth My Soul- This is the promise of complete salvation; "I affirm that this is now true. I claim perfect health, happiness and prosperity. I am free. He Leadeth Me On the Paths of Righteousness for His Name's Sake- Righteousness means right thinking; and I know that to think rightly about any condition means healing and safety. All evil is wrong thought, all good is right or true thought. Christ in me, my good shepher, is now guiding me in the path of right thought; so all will be well. Yea, Though I Walk Through the Valley of the Shadow of Death, I Will Fear No Evil, For Thou Art With Me- I am never again to be afraid of anything, because Thou, my Good Shepherd , art with me. I know that because Thou art Life, there is no death, but of the shadow of death, which is our false belief. There is not death, but the seeming loss of thy Presence. Thy Rod and Thy Staff Shall Comfort Me- I know that my word (prayer_ shall go forth and that it shall not return unto me void, because I am Thy child and the heir of Thy Kingdom. Thou Preparest a Table Before Me In The Presence of My Enemies- my enemies are my own thoughts; my doubts, my fears, my thoughts of criticism of others, and self condemnation are the only enemies I can have. Thou Annoitest My Head With Oil- Oil is a symbol of gladness, praise and thanksgiving. This line assures me that I am to be rescued from all my difficulties and that I am going to receive a clear, full and all satisfying solution to my problem. That all unseen causes underlying it will disappear forever out of my life."when the Good Shepherd replenishes my cup, it is not merely filled, it runs over". Surely Goodness and Mercy Shall Follow Me All The Days of My Life- I now give Thee thanks, Infinite Divine Love for the accomplished fact, and I praise Thy glorious, unbounded perfection, for the flawless harmony and peace and triumph that surely be mine. I affirm this triumph. I claim it. I appropriate it. It is mine. I Will Dwell in the House of the Lord Forever- Thy Presence is with me and it gives me rest. Now no doubts nor fears can by any means creep in. I am thy child, the son of Thy House, a house not made with hands, Eternal in the Heaven and in that house I dwell with Thee forever and ever. Amen- and it is done.
Hope you were enlightened by this. I don't know if I'd sell this picture if I were offered $50k but I hope you enjoyed.

Hypnosis: Unlocking the Unlimited Powers of Your Mind

noreply@blogger.com (C.J. Savage) — Sun, 22 Sep 2013 22:54:00 -0500

The power of your Mind is truly awesome. You can use your mental powers to achieve success that, up until now, you have only ever dreamed of. It is a Universal truth that life tends to move you towards the physical equivalent of your predominant thoughts and feelings. A great many people are well aware of this fact but most find it extremely difficult to apply this knowledge and put it to work effectively in their lives. Are you one of those people? If you are, then do not worry because I am about to show you how to overcome this little problem.

It seems to most of us that our thoughts are random, sometimes erratic and beyond our control. Our emotions truly do run us most of the time. When we have an emotional response to a thing we tend to go into automatic thinking as the subconscious programs in our mind (super-consciousness) take over. All too often these programs are just rehashed memories that create negative emotions and negative thoughts that hinder us from moving in the life direction that we really want. Our dominant thoughts and feelings are usually negative in nature due to the conditioning that has taken over on this planet.

The real power you wield is the conscious ability to change your dominant automatic thinking. By doing so you can ensure your feelings and thoughts are more positive in nature, more aligned with your desires and are therefore creating the life experiences that you want. This may sound like a tall order but there are many great techniques and tools to accomplish this. One of the best tools to recondition your mind for success is self-hypnosis.One of the best tools to break the bad habit of negative thinking is a thin rubber band on your wrist you snap every time you have a negative thought and immediately replace it with a positive affirmation like, 'Every day in every way, I am getting better and better'.

Hypnosis has been used by wise men and women for centuries to create relaxed physical and mental states and condition the mind to respond differently to outside stimuli. It is just as relevant and effective today as it ever has been. In fact with technological breakthroughs and advances in mind conditioning it is possible to create profound lasting change with self-hypnosis recordings.

FORGIVENESS: You HAVE To Forgive EVERYONE & Here's WHY

noreply@blogger.com (C.J. Savage) — Sun, 26 May 2013 12:47:00 -0500

You have to forgive everyone and everything that has ever caused you any harm or pain. It’s just a choice but if you don’t, everytime you think about them or what they did, holding a grudge, hating someone, holding anger in your heart is like you drinking the poison and hoping the other person gets sick. They
don’t, you do. Every negative thought and feeling you hold onto long enough will make you sick. For you to heal, really heal you have to truly forgive anyone that has ever caused you pain. You also have to forgive yourself. Why, because this is not treating yourself so goodt. Thoughts are things. Every thought you think is either good or bad. Every thought creates good feelings or bad which is good energy or bad energy. Good thoughts create good energy or bad thoughts create bad energy which gather and stay within you. While you harbor these bad negative feelings and energy within, it is only a matter of time before this negative energy manifests into your physical body causing health problems if not death from disease.

There is more than one way to release that negative energy you are harboring within, (yourself) that is destroying your body, literally. If someone has really upset you to the point that you can’t stop thinking about something they did or said, more than a few days later, it still haunts you, losing sleep, eating patterns have changed, etc., etc., etc.. You know when something bothers you, you can’t let it go. Get out a pad of paper and write a letter to whoever has caused you so much stress. Before we go very far with this, get one thing straight, you do not send this letter to anyone. No one is to see or read this letter but yourself. There is a definite reason, however for writing this letter, which is to release that negative energy that you are harboring within yourself so you can start to heal. Get in a quiet area where you will not be bothered and write them a letter and tell them off. Write to that person or persons and tell them why you are so upset, why you are hurt, how they made you feel. Write whatever comes to mind. As long as any thoughts on this come to mind, write it out. You can abbreviate, use symbols, whatever to write it out and fast, just so you know what it means. Write until nothing else comes to mind. You’ve gotten it all out, released it out on the paper, from the mind out through the pen in written words onto the paper. Write until you can’t think of anything else to say. When you are done expressing your feelings and letting out all the negative thoughts about that person or persons and the situation, you will feel a relief. THEN, you start writing that you forgive them. Write you forgive them and why you forgive them. You might write such things as you forgive them because to err is human but to forgive is Divine. You forgive them because you want to be good to yourself. You forgive them because you want to heal. You forgive them completely and unconditionally because you want to heal and now you are doing exactly that, healing from within to without. You forgive them because you are a good person and when you forgive, God forgives you and that is more important. Get the picture? When you write this all out, you will release that negative energy you are harboring within yourself. When you forgive, you start healing yourself. You will too if you do this exercise and put some real effort and thought into it. Your thoughts are things! When you forgive, by writing it out that you forgive, you will feel a peace come over you. Pay attention to how you feel. The feeling is very strong and cannot help but be noticed. When you feel that peace come over you when you forgive someone, you are healing. You’ll then notice that when you think about or speak of that person or situation, there is no emotion or change in your vitals. The heart doesn’t speed up, blood pressure doesn’t rise, acid in the stomach doesn’t increase or get out of control. When that happens, you are free of that negative energy you created in the first place. Yes, you created. Again, it’s about attitude.

You can take any situation and find many that have had it happen to them as well. However, there are many different reactions to that one and same situation. For example, a spouse finds some very intimate and romantic text messages on their spouse’s phone. One might go crazy, making accusations, file for divorce and leave. Another may ask their spouse what that is about and believe whatever they say because there isn’t a choice. They live happily ever after and it is never mentioned again or thought about it. Another may find it very upsetting, ask their spouse what the text messages are about, what it means, call the other person, drill them, insist on counseling, and stay with their spouse, but thinks about it all the time, losing sleep, thinking about the text messages, nearly every hour, every day, day after day, week after week, month after month. Their thoughts are all negative about the entire situation, no matter how many times their spouse apologizes or explains they made a mistake and didn’t mean anything by it. It was just stupid text messaging and having fun with someone on text messaging. Period. They might even dwell on this situation until their relationship is very bad, their health is in serious jeopardy and nothing matters anymore. When you lose your health, nothing else matters anymore.

Another way to help you release that negative energy that is being harbored inside is to pray about it. Ask God to help you to completely let go and you will. Pray about it everyday until you don’t feel any feelings about the person or situation.

One way or another, you have to release the anger you hold in your heart or suffer the consequences before it is too late and you only wish you had done this. Then when you forgive others for the pain they’ve caused you, you have to forgive yourself. Simply talk to

to yourself like you are a third person. Say to yourself “I love you, (your name) I’m sorry, (your name), Please forgive me, (your name), Thank you (your name)”. Try saying this repeatedly while falling asleep, silently in your mind or loud enough to hear yourself. Powerful. I use this forgiveness in my hypnosis audio, ‘Achieve Perfect and Radiant Health’ to help you to forgive others as well as yourself which is working with your higher power within so if you can’t do this, going through the physical consciousness to get to your higher self, I help you to speed this up. It works like magic! It’s powerful!

HOW TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE BY CHANGING YOUR THINKING

noreply@blogger.com (C.J. Savage) — Mon, 15 Apr 2013 17:43:00 -0500

You can change your life or any part of it by simply changing your thinking. You are asking, ‘How do I change my thinking?’? It is easier than you think. Your thoughts

become

habits which become your beliefs. You are still in control of your thoughts, or are you? Do you want to be? You can be, by simply applying a few new habits in your daily life. Ever know anyone that is always saying, ‘I’m so fat, no matter what I do to try to lose weight, I just stay fat, nothing works’. Those thoughts become their belief and with the Universal Law of Belief and the Universal Law of Attraction, they remain ‘fat’ no matter what weight loss programs they try. The most common remarks I hear today is, “The economy is so bad…I can’t afford it…everything is so high…so many people are out of jobs, etc” If you keep thinking like this, you will believe it and you’ll live it and worry, fear, anxiety and depression will set in. These kind of thoughts are very negative thinking which creates negative energy that goes out in the Universe, permeating and penetrating all space, attracting more negative energy back to you and before you know it, you’ve become a big crap magnet! You’ll soon have problems, if you don’t already. Is that the kind of life you want to live? Certainly not!

The worst beliefs are the self-limiting beliefs. You may think you lack intelligence or abilities to do what it is you want to do, achieve goals or be creative, earn a high income, lose weight, are not as good as someone else or can’t be the person you want to be. These self-limiting beliefs create the worst negative thoughts making you your own worst enemy. Your beliefs then become your realities. Whether you think you can or think you can’t, you’re right”. You can change all that negative energy around to living a life of abundance, happiness, health and harmony.

Some of you think your thoughts just flow in randomly, millions of thoughts a day just flows in your mind, without any control on your part. And they might just do that but if they do, you are living by default. You let life happen to you. You can learn to control your thoughts, with practice and create the life you really want. It takes some effort on your part but it is much easier to get control of your thoughts than you may think.

First you need to understand there are Universal Laws by which we live that are immutable, unwavering, without error working whether you realize it or not, all the time just as the Law of Gravity and 32 other laws that affect your life every second of everyday. One is The Law of Belief, a very powerful law which comes from within which is the reason for “Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve”. This means whatever you believe, with conviction, becomes your reality, even if the odds are against you. This is the basic underlying principle for most psychology, philosophy and metaphysics. The New Testament says, “According to your faith, it is done unto you.” The Old Testament says, “As a man thinketh, in his heart (his beliefs), so is he.”

You can start by removing these limitations believing you have no limitations and start believing you can do anything, be anything and have anything. Start dreaming and writing your life like a script for a play, how you want to see your life play out. You must write it in the present tense as if it is already a reality and feel it with emotion when you visualize it as you write. Get a notebook and write about your life everyday, adding more detail everyday. Get up a few minutes early to write about the life you dream you are living and spend a few minutes writing before you go to sleep. In between time, day dream about the life you are living in your notebook and replace any negative thoughts immediately with positive ones. Fill your idle mind with affirmations, stopping any negative thoughts flowing in. Use affirmations for the area of your life you want to improve the most. For example, if you want to improve your health, repeat over and over in your mind or loud enough you can hear yourself with emotion, “I am whole, perfect, strong, powerful, loving, harmonious and happy” or “Everyday in everyway, I am becoming stronger and stronger, healthier and healthier, better and better, happier and happier” If you want more money fast: “There is an avalanche of money coming to me now…And I receive it with open arms and I am grateful” or “Every minute of everyday, millions (thousands or hundreds) of dollars flow to me now…instantly, effortlessly, naturally now”. If it is something you want to be, say “I can be what I will to be and I will to be..(Ex: the best salesman in the company by such & such date) With practice, you can develop your mind to the point, you not only believe that you can do, have or be anything you put your mind to, the Universal Law of Attraction will make it a reality, somehow, some way. Do not be concerned about how it will happen or where it will come from but just believe it will come to be one way or another. Expect the results you dream and move forward with intentions of it coming to be.

In an effort to be positive, you must get rid of most of the negative thinking and it gets easier with practice. Wear a rubber band on your wrist and snap it hard if you have a negative thought or say anything negative, gossip or even agree with someone about something negative. Be honest with yourself and snap it and you will break this bad habit of being negative. Stay away from negative people for at least 30 – 90 days, until you get your life balanced. Take inventory of the people you talk to or are around and do you usually feel better or worse after you’ve been around them or talked to them? Stay away from all the negative energy you can and that most certainly includes most of television, especially the news. The news in this country is like the big bad wolf in the 1963 Disney Cartoon in ‘Chicken Little’ telling everyone the sky is falling. The chickens run around squawking to each other in fear, listening to the wolf talking through the fence, guiding them to the cave, where he later sits, licking his lips and the bones.

The news media seems to be great at instilling fear into the American people. Stop feeding that fear and be positive and you will certainly see everything improve in your life. Your entire life can change dramatically if you continue practicing this.

It all starts with you in control of your thoughts, focusing upon what it is you desire, hard and long enough, with determination, becomes your beliefs, which becomes your reality. Whatever you so desire, with determination, focusing on it daily, visualizing and feeling it with emotion will come to be. This is how you can change your beliefs, reprogramming your Super Conscious mind.

Preparing For Your Hypnosis: Basic Facts About Hypnosis to Be a Good Subject

noreply@blogger.com (C.J. Savage) — Mon, 15 Apr 2013 01:09:00 -0500

PLEASE READ BEFORE YOUR HYPNOSIS SESSION by C.J. Savage @ 2012

Preparing you to be a good subject: What to expect, what to do, how it works

BASIC FACTS ABOUT HYPNOSIS : All hypnosis is self hypnosis. YOU do ALL the work. I simply guide you. You are in complete control at all times. YOU WILL ALWAYS

HEAR ME, even if you don’t think so. Your physical consciousness may drift off or remain focused on me & you may hear noises around you as well (keep your eyes closed & continue to participate) BUT your super conscious mind (sub-conscious) takes over and that is where all the power lies. It will be re-programmed to reach your goals easily & effortlessly. You will not FEEL anything. You are ALWAYS in control. You CAN OPEN your eyes if you wanted to, but don’t, if you want to continue participating (meaning do what I tell you to do, following my instructions, thinking about what I am talking about) You can move if you need to but if you can get comfortable and in a position where you don’t have to move, you’ll become more relaxed and at ease and enjoy it more. YOU’LL BE A GREAT SUBJECT. ANYONE can be hypnotized IF they want to be. THE ONLY THING THAT CAN KEEP YOU FROM BEING HYPNOTIZED IS YOU – YOURSELF. The ONLY PEOPLE that cannot be hypnotized to a depth that will be helpful are the feeble-minded, the insane and the senile and very young children who have not developed a mind sufficient to focus on a conversation – quite the opposite of what many believe. You can’t do anything wrong. Nothing can go wrong. The only thing I don’t want you to do- is to try too hard. (or you’ll be rigid and stressed) I just want you to sit back and relax, close your eyes and listen to my voice. Focus on my voice, each word. Focusing on each syllable may help you to focus better, thinking ABOUT what I’m saying. Forget about everything else outside the room and focus on my voice and what I am saying. THERE ISN’T ANY FEELING OF BEING HYPNOTIZED. The only thing you feel is relaxed. Some of you may get kind of relaxed, while others become very very deeply relaxed, so relaxed, you may snore but no one will go to sleep. It may feel like sleep sometimes, but it is not. You don’t have to SAY anything. You don’t have to DO anything. But you do have to participate. To participate, means you listen to my voice, thinking about what I’m saying. Like a mind exercise. Sound easy? It is.If your mind wonders and it will, just bring it back to my attention. Try to stay focused on my voice. To Really RELAX, get your tongue off the roof of your mouth, allowing a little space between the teeth to control your tongue, focus on your breathing: feel and listen to yourself, breathing in and out, while focusing on my voice. Then we’ll go into GUIDED IMAGERY. This is very easy. Thinking about what I am saying, Allowing the images to flow into your awareness. For example… if I said, imagine standing inside your house, at the entrance door. Which side of the door is your doorknob on? Right or the left? You didn’t have to actually see a picture or make your mind light up like a movie screen to see it or imagine it. You let that image flow into your awareness when you thought about it. The first guided imagery is simple and easy, yet powerful! Imagine this, when I say, “I want you to imagine a bright white beam of light coming down from the infinite sky, entering your head, filling you up, until it is overflowing, surrounding your body.” It is powerful. It is a cleansing of the soul and it becomes your aura of protection and balance. Just thinking about it, bringing it in, makes it so. You may even feel it, like a warming sensation flowing through you. Then we’ll go to a beautiful place, your place, where you feel secure and safe and enjoy. You can make it up, using your imagination or simply use your memory, thinking about this place of yours. There are no limitations here. It can be anything you want or even your home, using your memory, with all your favorite things around you, how it smells, feels, sounds and people you want near you. You can make it up, using your imagination or simply use your memory, thinking about this place of yours. The more detail you think about adding in here, the more real it feels and becomes.

When you’re hypnotized, you will open your eyes within 10 minutes after I tell you to. However, while listening to your CD at home, you may not open your eyes within 10 minutes if you’re tired & are going to sleep anyway after your hypnosis so you will not be hypnotized. To avoid this, make sure you turn your volume up on your hypnosis audio to easily hear & try not to be so tired when you listen or you’ll sleep.

How To Get Happy: Do 4 Things

Anyone can get happy, be happy and find true happiness within themselves, living

life more abundantly if they want to, by practicing just 4 things...
If you have been taking medication for depression and it is not working, it is because you are trying to mask the symptoms instead of treating the cause. The cause is in your thinking, the thoughts you think. If you stop all your negative thinking, do you think you would feel differently? You would stop the negative feelings. To get control of your emotions, you have to get control of your feelings. Emotions and feelings are not the same but closely related. Your emotions are not good and positive or you wouldn’t be unhappy or suffer depression. Your feelings come from the thoughts you think. Period. This entire process all starts in your mind. To get control of your mind, you have to get control of the thoughts you think. You’re probably thinking that your thoughts just flood in randomly and you can’t help it. If that is the case, you are living by default and have no control over your mind. The mind is very powerful and most know and understand that but they just don’t know how to get it going, kick into gear, have control per se. You can get control and it is much easier than you might think.

If you want to be happy, simply do these four things for 60 days and see if your life hasn’t changed for the better. I’ll make a bet it does.

1^st Decide to be happy. It’s just a choice. Real happiness comes from within, not from other people, things or money. It’s a decision. When you’ve stopped all the negative thoughts and talk, you’ll stop your negative feelings and you can only be truly happy.

2^nd Wear a Rubber Band On Your Wrist to Break the Bad Habit of Negative Thinking. You have to get control of your mind, your physical thoughts you think and you can. It’s much easier than you think. Simply wear a rubber band on your wrist and snap it every time you think a bad, negative or wrong thought. It may sound silly or even ridiculous but it works so don’t knock it until you’ve tried it. It breaks this bad habit of negative thinking which can lead to mild depression then severe depression. You have to be honest with yourself and actually snap it every time you start to have a negative thought and snap it hard enough to hurt. This snap should be on the underside of your wrist where it’s most tender, not on top or on the side. If you are serious about getting control of your mind, you have to do this and be honest about it. Every time you start to think a negative thought, snap the rubber band and replace it with a good, right and positive thought. Explain to others why you’re wearing a rubber band. Let them know if you should not snap your rubber band, if you say anything negative, they are allowed to snap it for you. They will also become your support and become more conscientious of what they say around you when they realize you don’t want to partake in bad, negative or wrong thinking and talk. The fact is, every time you think or say anything negative, you literally create negative energy that goes out in the universe, permeating and penetrating all of space with negative energy which is like a millions of little magnets attracting like energy that comes back to you. If you wonder why bad things happen to you, this is one reason. If you say anything like, ‘we can’t afford it’, ‘we don’t have enough money’, snap the rubber band, replace it immediately with something positive. Think or say something positive such as, ‘we will buy it as soon as we have the money’. ‘We’ll pay that as soon as we have the money’. Pay attention to how you feel when you think or speak. If you have negative feelings, you are creating negative energy and attracting more negative, more lack and limitations. Stop using negative talk, especially phrases such as “I can’t”. These words actually disempower you. If your vibration raises and you feel good when you speak, you are attracting the right thing. Instead of saying ‘the worse it gets, the worse it gets’, you will soon be saying ‘the better it gets, the better it gets’! You will soon decide what you want to think about and choose how you want to feel. You will choose good, right and positive thoughts that make you feel good that leads to good positive emotions and are happy.

3^rd Being Grateful. Make a written or mental list everyday of what you are grateful for. Keeping a daily journal of what you are grateful for is probably one of the single best things you can do to change your life for the better! What are you grateful for? (Your family, friends, good health, home, financial blessings, peace, car, phone, computer, your job, your talents, intelligence, your ability to talk, walk, think, etc.) Start by writing a list and each day your list should grow. Count your blessings while FEELING Grateful, and say 'thank you God'. Feeling grateful, really feeling it as you focus on what you’re grateful for will bring you more of it. Always focus on the positive, never the negative. For example, “I am grateful for my strong healthy body” is good. It is not good to say “I am grateful I am not sick” as this is focusing on the negative. The universe will give you more of what you feel really grateful for and it will lift your spirits, make you feel better and you will raise your vibration. While this is easy and such a small thing to do, it has phenomenal power.

4^th You have to forgive everyone and everything that has ever caused you any harm or pain. It’s just a choice but if you don’t, holding a grudge, hating someone, holding anger in your heart is like you drinking the poison and hoping the other person gets sick. They don’t, you do. Every negative thought and feeling you hold onto long enough will make you sick. For you to heal, really heal you have to truly forgive anyone that has ever caused you pain. You also have to forgive yourself. Why, because this is not being good to yourself.

There is more than one way to release that negative energy you are harboring within, (yourself) that is destroying your body, literally. If someone has ever really upset you to the point that you feel negative feelings any time you think or talk about it, you are creating, building and harboring bad, dark, negative energy within that will eventually affect your health. If you think time heals, you’re wrong, it doesn’t. Some people think that something that happened so long ago, that was very bad or negative at the time is not important and doesn’t matter anymore. The test is to talk about it to someone and tell the story the best as you can remember it and pay attention to how you feel when you talk about it. Do you feel yourself getting upset? Are you starting to feel badly, depressed or just not so good anymore? If so, you are still harboring that negative energy deep down in the soul that will and is manifesting into your physical body and will eventually create health problems. You can release this dark, negative, bad energy with a little effort.

Get out a pad of paper and write a letter to whoever has caused you so much stress. Before we go very far with this, get one thing straight, you do not send this letter to anyone. No one is to see or read this letter but yourself. There is a definite reason, however for writing this letter, which is to release that negative energy that you are harboring within yourself so you can start to heal. Get in a quiet area where you will not be bothered and write them a letter and tell them off. Write to that person or persons and tell them why you are so upset, why you are hurt, how they made you feel. Write whatever comes to mind. As long as any thoughts on this come to mind, write it out. You can abbreviate, use symbols, whatever to write it out and fast, just so you know what it means. Write until nothing else comes to mind. You’ve gotten it all out, released it out on the paper, from the mind out through the pen in written words onto the paper. Write until you can’t think of anything else to say. When you are done expressing your feelings and letting out all the negative thoughts about that person or persons and the situation, you will feel a relief. THEN, you start writing that you forgive them. Write you forgive them and why you forgive them. You might write such things as you forgive them because to err is human but to forgive is Divine. You forgive them because you want to be good to yourself. You forgive them because you want to heal. You forgive them completely and unconditionally because you want to heal and now you are doing exactly that, healing from within to without. You forgive them because you are a good person and when you forgive, God forgives you and that is more important. Get the picture? When you write this all out, you will release that negative energy you are harboring within yourself. When you forgive, you start healing yourself. You will too, if you do this exercise and put some real effort and thought into it. Your thoughts are things! When you forgive, by writing it out that you forgive, you will feel a peace come over you. Pay attention to how you feel. The feeling is very strong and cannot help but be noticed. When you feel that peace come over you when you forgive someone, you are healing. You’ll then notice that when you think about or speak of that person or situation, there is no emotion or change in your vitals. The heart doesn’t speed up, blood pressure doesn’t rise, acid in the stomach doesn’t increase or get out of control. When that happens, you are free of that negative energy you created in the first place. Yes, you created. Again, it’s about attitude.

to yourself like you are a third person. Say to yourself “I love you, (your name) I’m sorry, (your name), Please forgive me, (your name), Thank you (your name)”. Try saying this repeatedly while falling asleep, silently in your mind or loud enough to hear yourself. Powerful. I use this forgiveness in my hypnosis audio, ‘Achieve Perfect and Radiant Health’ to help you to forgive others as well as yourself which is working with your higher power within so if you can’t do this on your own, going through the physical consciousness to get to your higher self, I help you with this. It works like magic! It’s powerful!

If you are not happy, for whatever reason, whether it may seem temporary or is has been long term and you believe the reason is circumstantial, a specific situation or environment, then is it causing you to experience a lot of anger, jealousy, depression, hate frequently? If you can identify the problem, can you eliminate the problem? If you’re in a situation that is continuously causing you to be upset, mad, angry, jealous, hateful, sad, depressed, etc. most of the time, then make a change to your situation. For example, if you’re in a bad or unhealthy relationship then get out of that relationship. If you’re worried about how bad that would be to leave, take a look at how bad it is to stay. What outweighs what? When Sandra Bullock learned Jesse James was cheating on her and so many times, she got out without looking back! Even as one of the most beautiful women in the world and one of the top paid actresses on the screen, I’m sure Sandra Bullock was deeply hurt by James infidelity. We all have feelings and when our feelings are deeply hurt, destroyed or irreparable then it’s time to make a change. The question to ask yourself is how long can your health hold up with all the strong negative feelings and emotions you are experiencing?

Stop Smoking with Hypnosis is Easy, Safe and Natural !
The best and easiest way to stop smoking if you have any desire to quit is with hypnosis. To quit smoking with hypnosis feels like something once did a long time ago, like a past distant memory. It doesn't matter...
how long you've smoke or how much you smoke or even how much you enjoy smoking, as long as you have a desire to quit, it works. Hypnosis is easy, relaxing, safe and natural. When you open your eyes after being hypnotized to stop smoking, you will feel like a non-smoker and smoking will feel like a past distant memory, something you once did a long time ago. Will it work for you? Only if you want it to.

You will NOT have the cravings, urges, desires for tobacco or feel like smoking. You will feel good and
healthy. The smell of smoke will be unappealing and unappetizing. You will not miss the tobacco or nicotine. However, one most common mistake people make after being hypnotized for smoking, after the hypnosis session, they feel fine and they wonder where that urge for a cigarette is in them. They remember that oh so familiar feeling of what it feels like to crave that smoke but it's not there, so they re-enact it, with memory, feelings, imaging themselves smoking. Using their memory, they remember how it feels, that whirly burly feeling inside them, they re-enact it within, using memory, feelings and voila', it's there. They suddenly want a cigarette or smoke and boast this sudden thought, that hypnosis didn't work. But, oh it did work and oh so well. They were hypnotized to stop smoking and were intelligent enough to use it again to hypnotize themselves to become a smoker again! If you try hard enough, even if you don't realize you're doing it, you can bring it back, thinking about that feeling of cravings for a cigarette you're so familiar with. When you do this, you can do it in seconds to a couple of minutes to actually re-hypnotize yourself TO BE A SMOKER again, focusing on bringing those urges and cravings in.

ALL HYPNOSIS IS SELF HYPNOSIS. You can hypnotize yourself anytime you want. I suggest you know what you are going to do when you are done with the hypnosis session and be on your way and do it. Have a plan. Do not focus on the old memories of those urges, trying to feel the craving for the tobacco or nicotine (you think you're just checking to see if that old familiar feeling is still there, trying to feel that craving- BUT YOU'RE REALLY RE-HYPNOTIZING YOURSELF TO BE A SMOKER). If you just go on with your life and you can, you will not ever miss those cigarettes or tobacco. If you get this part, you will have great success in becoming a non-smoker.

A light trance is as trancy as you need to get for this to work. This means you do not have to experience a deep trance. Deeper trances don't really work better, but they are more interesting. A nice light trance is all you need for this to work. This means you simply sit back, try to relax, listen to the voice of your hypnotherapist, thinking about what they're saying, participating and you may hear him or her and everything they say, are aware of other noises around you and that's okay! To help you focus on their voice so you are not distracted, focus on your breathing, feeling and counting slowly to yourself while you inhale through your nose and again while you exhale through your mouth. Keep your tongue off the roof of your mouth so you can relax and relax your eyes by keeping them closed and looking out and up into the universe, way out there, into the darkness. If you do this, you won't have tension in your face or body. Keep your eyes closed until you're told to open them. Simply participating by following these instructions, will make you a great subject and you will be hypnotized even if you "don't feel anything" because you won't, other than relaxed. There isn't any feeling of being hypnotized other than a feeling of being relaxed. Afterwards, you should FEEL better, healthier, happier, stronger and SMOKE FREE.

When you're hypnotized, you are always in control. Always. Your senses become keener. You become more aware, not less. You hear and if you feel the need to know what is said, you'll keep your level of physical consciousness up, tuned in, so you can be aware of what is being said. Your mind may wonder. It can and if it does, just bring your attention back to their voice thinking about what they're am saying. Think about cleaning up your system as a cleansing on your body of toxins while becoming smoke free. This is powerful. A nice light trance is as trancy as you need to get to make this work. This is like a mind exercise. You do not just listen as if you're being told a story but rather, you have to think about it, using your imagination, being creative, actually participating with the mind, at work and feel it with emotion to make it most powerful.

I recommend that you are hypnotized by someone with plenty of experience, someone that has a voice that you like and feel comfortable with and be sure you receive an audio CD with the same hypnosis on it to listen to for reinforcement almost daily for 28 days. This reinforcement will help you stay in control of any stress you may have, but most importantly it will make you a non-smoker permanently. If you should have some very stressful event occur in your life down the road in say a year or 5 years, and you had listened to your hypnosis audio like you were suppose to, you will realize that no matter what happens, nothing can ever make you smoke ever again. Also, most of my clients simply continue listening to their hypnosis audios because it is so relaxing, they enjoy it, while it improves their attitude and makes them feel better, it improves their memory or they listen to it because they can't sleep or they use it to reduce their stress. Even if you have no desire to smoke, I suggest you listen to your reinforcement anyway so you'll never smoke again. Hypnosis has proven to be the best, most effective, easiest, safest and most natural method for people to stop smoking. While drugs may work for awhile, they have adverse effects on your body, finances and mind. So if you want to quit smoking and you do have to have some desire to want to quit, even if you have smoked heavily forever, there is no better way or easier way than with a good hypnotherapist.

C.J. Savage Heals her Shattered Bones in 12 Days with Hypnosis

noreply@blogger.com (C.J. Savage) — Fri, 17 Dec 2010 23:16:00 -0600

Article written by Cheryl J Savage and Pat Rutherford, editor of "Taste of Homes" magazine.
C.J. Savage, certified hypnotherapist, decided to get rid of a tree from her yard so she climbed up the tree while babysitting her grandchildren then suddenly took a dive head first to the ground when her feet slipped on a Saturday afternoon, May 22, 2010. C.J. climbed up on the tree from her porch, bouncing up and down on a limb when her feet slipped,
and she suddenly took a dive to the ground head first, shattering her wrist and arm. Now in excruciating pain, tells her 3 yr old and 7 yr old grandkids what to do to heal her. C.J. said “they did great!” They were so small, their attention span was a little short but they healed her elbow. The grandkids worked on healing with their own minds for 10 to 15 mins., then quit to watch the cartoons playing on TV. Prior to that, the elbow had a sharp bone sticking up out of it and wouldn’t bend, but the elbow was now fine
After hours of experiencing excruciating pain and too weak to do anything, C.J. went to the E.R., where they prepared her for surgery, after one look at her arm but after the x-rays, they said it was ‘completely shattered’ and they couldn’t do anything for her. The E.R. Dr. said, “for all the damage done, the elbow was fine”. They put a cast on her entire arm and told her to see a specialist right away.
     C.J. Savage did her hypnosis almost around the clock for the next 9 days. This was nothing new, because C.J. has healed herself of any illness or injury she’s had for many years but she had never had anything this severe before. C.J. simply listened to two of her own hypnosis audio's, "General Healing of Health Problems with Hypnosis" and "Achieve Perfect and Radiant Health with Hypnosis" which can be downloaded for a small fee if you get it off her website at http://www.thehypnosisqueen.com/
     C.J. got an appointment with Orthopedic Specialist, Dr. Mark Greene, whom she saw 9 days later after being in the E.R.. When Dr. Greene initially saw C.J., he explained how he would “insert a metal plate with pins and screws in her wrist…” but C.J. said, “Dr.Greene, do you believe in miracles?” He responded very kindly and quickly, “yes Cheryl, I do believe in miracles.” C.J. was so relieved to hear that and asked for another x-ray which he kindly obliged. After taking a look at the new x-rays, the surgery would not be necessary as she was healing very fast. Dr. Greene removed her cast from the E.R. and put on a small cast on her wrist to keep the wrist ‘stabilized’. Again, she continued with hypnosis, using the ‘white light’, the Universal source of power to heal and by the next morning, the small cast Greene put on the day before was so loose, she couldn’t stand it so called to have it removed and did so the next day.No cast was put back on. All the swelling had left and the bones were fine. She wore a cast less than 12 days. C.J. now needed to work on stretching and healing her muscles and tendons in the hand that had been overly stretched in the fall. She said her the muscles in her hand was sore, but is using her hand as usual with all the strength back in it.
     C.J. Savage says, “I often tell my clients you have the state of the art pharmacy inside you that can heal anything, no matter what it is, injury or illness. All my clients who have used hypnosis to heal illnesses or injuries for many years with our own minds, have had 100% success.” It can take minutes, hours, days or even months if is cancer. She has witnessed miraculous healings before her very eyes that has even amazed her. She knows how powerful the mind is and most people don’t have a clue just how powerful it really is or even care. Those that do realize the mind is incredibly powerful don't know how to utilize it. That’s why more than 90% of the people use an average of 2 – 8% of their mind on a daily basis. C.J. Savage teaches people how to access another 70-80% of their mental powers on her free live internet radio channel called, “The Power of The Super Conscious Mind”. She says anyone can learn this if they want to and do the same. If more people did learn to use this Universal source of power, health insurance wouldn’t be such a big concern in this country."

Losing Weight Has Never Been Easier When You Use Hypnosis

Harness the power within and reach your desired shape and figure. Hypnosis is incredibly powerful and safe. Through the power of the mind and a good hypnotherapist, you will lose weight even if you don't believe you will. Hypnosis is now a trend, widely accepted and used by most health care organizations, hospitals and clinics but still highly misunderstood by many.
Unlike a diet, you can lose weight without the mental battles of what to eat and maintain your weight and figure permanently. Losing weight with hypnosis is easy with the reinforcement of a cd used daily for about a month and proven to be the most successful permanent weight loss. Hypnosis has been proven to be one of the best, easiest and absolutely the healthiest and safest while the most relaxing and least expensive ways to lose weight permanently while you feel happier and healthier. When you understand hypnosis and know what to expect, you'll be successful in losing all the weight you want and need to lose, even if you don't believe it
will work, it will work anyway. Hypnosis works if you want it to work. Anyone can be hypnotized if they want to be. You will lose weight if you do desire to lose weight. The only thing that can keep you from being hypnotized is you, yourself. I often have people say to me, "I don't think I can be hypnotized." They are usually my best clients. They are usually people that have some big misconceptions about hypnosis and may have tried it but nothing magically happened so they gave up. They really wanted it to work but just didn't really understand, how to make it work. To be a good subject, you must understand some basic facts about hypnosis. When you are hypnotized by someone with expertise, you will simply sit back and relax, close your eyes and listen to the hypnotherapist's voice to guide you. You can't do anything wrong, nothing can go wrong. There are no dangers in this type of hypnosis. All hypnosis is self hypnosis. You are always in control. You will never do or say anything against your will, desires, beliefs or morals, regardless of what some people think. It is like a mind exercise or mind game. You do not lose control of your mind. You are always in control. You do not lose your hearing or any of your senses. Your senses actually become keener and you become more aware, not less. You will always hear me whether you think you do or not. It's up to you and only you to make it work because all the work is in your mind. You don't have to say anything or do anything. The hypnotherapist is using their expertise to guide you in your mind, giving you directions but you don't have to follow them if you're not comfortable with any part of it. There isn't ANY feeling of being hypnotized. You will not feel hypnotized. The only feeling you will have in this kind of hypnosis is slighly relaxed to very, very relaxed but you will not be asleep. Some feel only slightly relaxed and listen to every word and remember it all while others become so very relaxed, they snore but no one will go to sleep unless you're home in bed for the night and you're tired anyway when you turn on your CD. It may feel like sleep sometimes but it is not sleep. All the work is in your mind so you do have to participate and to participate, you think about what the hypnotherapist is saying. It is simply a guided meditation and incredibly powerful. With Hypnosis, you WILL reach your desired weight and figure. You will lose all the weight you want and need to lose, without the stress and mental battles of cravings, urges, over eating, stuffing yourself as you do when dieting. It is not a diet so you will not put the weight back on! You simply don't feel as hungry, while you'll crave the more nutritious, lower calorie, healthier foods. You will not desire the rich, fattening, greasy, high calorie, sweets, junk food and foods that are not good for you. You will not snack or eat between meals or late at night. You will eat what your body needs and when you are satisfied, you are completely satisfied. You will not lose weight so fast it could harm your health. You will focus on your desired shape and size and reach that desired size easily and without stress and maintain that size for as long as you want. You will desire to drink more water and be satisfied from one meal to the next. You'll lose weight without trying! Your eating habits can change drastically, immediately or it may be gradually over time. Some people can be hypnotized one time and their eating habits change forever and others need that reinforcement of being hypnotized by having a cd to listen to daily. I know many people that have lost their unwanted weight using hypnosis when they were unsuccessful in everything else they tried, including diets, pills and surgeries. I too, was one of these people. I struggled with diets for so many years trying to lose weight and keep it off but as soon as I went off the diet, the weight came back on and then some. The mental anguish of my weight going up and down and never knowing what size I'd be wearing next month kept me in somewhat of a state of frustration over my weight. Go figure, when it I'm pigging out on potato chips, Pepsi and M and M's for breakfast most mornings. I was hypnotized about 18 years ago and have not been on any kind of diet since. I have not drank a single soda or care for chocolate at all. I still have a hard time comprehending what a chocoholic I once was. I eat whatever I want now and never worry about my size or weight. I do have a desire for good, healthy, nutritious foods, especially vegetables (which I never cared for before). I'm a 5 ft 4 in, 53 yr old woman, about 120 lbs and I say about 120 lbs because I don't know what I really weigh because I don't own a scale or would want one. I only focus on my desired shape and size and I maintain it. You can reach your desired weight and figure with hypnosis if you want to. You use your sub-conscious mind, now more commonly known as the higher self, higher consciousness or super-consciousness. It never rests anymore than the heart does. This is where all the power lies. You will learn to harness that power within with practice of this guided meditation and that is all it is, a guided meditation and it is incredibly powerful. As a reinforcement to your hypnosis, it is best to listen to your hypnosis on a cd or ipod for at least 28 days. Some experts say you need to listen to the hypnosis cd for 21 days to change your habits for a lifetime while others say it takes 28 days. Nevertheless, 21 or 28, most people continue to listen to their cd for many reasons as there are so many advantages to continue listening to your cd whether it is for weight loss or other. When you are hypnotized, it is a mind exercise and you will soon find your memory improves. Your stress level will go down; you'll sleep better and feel happier and healthier all the time. You will feel a new and vital energy that flows through your body and mind each day you awaken from a good night's rest with a more positive attitude. You will be more motivated than ever to exercise, to take the time to be active each day. Well, in my hypnosis anyway, you will benefit all of these things, while losing weight. Good hypnotherapy will always leave you feeling good, no matter what you’re hypnotized for.http://www.thehypnosisqueen.com/

All Hypnosis is Self Hypnosis:How to Optimize Your Days,Your Life!

noreply@blogger.com (C.J. Savage) — Fri, 17 Dec 2010 00:28:00 -0600

You have the power within you to be, have and do anything you really, really want. Capture that power by
first acknowledging this. Observe your thoughts and what you are thinking. All hypnosis is self hypnosis. What are you hypnotizing yourself for today?

Because those repeated thoughts you think, good or bad become your beliefs. A belief is a chronic pattern of physical thoughts which become embedded deeply in your soul, your super conscious mind (a/k/a subconscious mind). The physical mind you use for everyday living has what we call a critical factor that is always arguing with you, feeding you bad, negative and wrong thoughts, bringing forth the past negative experiences for you to think about and feel again, more negative thoughts and feelings.

Those negative thoughts and feelings lead to negative emotions such as depression which is the worst around holidays.

To optimize your holidays and everyday, you have to first get control of your physical thoughts you think

and you can. It’s much easier than you think. Simply wear a rubber band on your wrist and snap it every time you think a bad, negative or wrong thought. It breaks this bad habit of negative thinking. Every time you start to think a negative thought, replace it with a good, right and positive thought. Tell others why you’re wearing a rubber band and let them know if you should not snap it if you say anything negative, they are allowed to snap it for you. They will also become your support and become more conscientious of what they say around you when they realize you don’t want to partake in bad, negative or wrong thinking and talk. The fact is, every time you think or say anything negative, you literally create negative energy that goes out in the universe, permeating and penetrating all of space with negative energy which is like a magnet attracting like energy that comes back to you. If you wonder why bad things happen to, this is one reason. 2^nd You have to forgive everyone and everything that has ever caused you any harm or pain. It’s just a choice but if you don’t, holding a grudge, hating someone, holding anger in your heart is like you drinking the poison and hoping the other person gets sick. They don’t, you do. Every negative thought and feeling you hold onto long enough will make you sick. For you to heal, really heal you have to truly forgive anyone that has ever caused you pain then forgive yourself. Say to yourself I love you, (your name) I’m sorry, (your name), Please forgive me, (your name), Thank you (your name).(try saying this repeatedly while falling asleep). Powerful.

3^rd Meditate everyday for at least 20 mins., clearing your mind, thinking nothing. With your eyes closed and relaxed, look up and out into the Universe, beyond your eyelids, taking very deep but comfortable breaths. Inhale through your nose while you count on your fingers by slightly tapping with your fingertips, hold your breath as long as you comfortably can while counting again on your fingertips and let it out through your mouth again while counting by tapping your fingertips again. This is listening to God.

4^th Make a written or mental list everyday of what you are grateful for, your family, friends, good health, home, financial blessings, peace, car, phone, computer, etc. Start by writing a list and each day your list should grow. Count your blessings while FEELING Grateful, and say 'thank you God'. Feeling grateful, really feeling it as you focus on what you’re grateful for will bring you more of it. Always focus on the positive, never the negative. For example, I am grateful for my strong healthy body is a good. I am grateful I am not sick is focusing on the negative and is not good. The universe will give you more of what you feel really grateful for and it will lift your spirits, make you feel better and you will raise your vibration. While this is easy and such a small thing to do, it has phenomenal power.

5^th Upon awakening, and several times throughout the day, imagine a bright white beam of light coming down from the infinite sky above, entering your head and filling you up until it is overflowing. This is the Universal light of life’s energy or God’s energy you can use to give yourself a spiritual cleansing and an aura of protection and harmony. It only takes 20 seconds or so to do. It is easy and simple with the subtle thought of doing so, makes it so and is incredible powerful. This is what healers use to heal. This is how I healed my shattered bones in 12 days. When you first start doing this, imagine the bright beam of light coming into your head, flowing into and through every cell of your body, filling you up, out the bottom of your feet into the earth below you, driving it into the center of the earth. This will get rid of all your negative energy and heals.

6^th Decide to be happy. It’s just a choice. Real happiness comes from within, not from other people, things or money. It’s a decision. When you’ve stopped all the negative thoughts and talk, you’ll stop your negative feelings and you can only be happy.

7^th Say some affirmations (they are most powerful in front of the mirror), like "Everyday in every way, I AM getting better and better" "Everyday in every way, I AM FEELING better and better, happier and happier, healthier and healthier!" Say it like you mean it. Repeat it over and over until you FEEL IT. Keep your affirmations positive. It will improve your mood. 8^th Smile and the whole world will smile back. You will radiate with positive energy and attract those with positive energy to you.

Attitude

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude to me, is more important than
talent. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than facts, than appearance, than successes, than failures, than what other people think or say or do. It will make or break....a nation...an individual...a team. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... We cannot change the fact that people will act a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. AND so it is with us.... We are in charge of our attitude. Did you know, the first hour of your day strongly determines how your entire day goes?

Hypnosis and Christianity

noreply@blogger.com (C.J. Savage) — Wed, 15 Dec 2010 21:31:00 -0600

Since Hypnosis is magnified concentration connected to a belief system, then the Bible has some insight as to what is accepted and not accepted. Hypnosis is mentioned more than 1,000 times in the Bible,
but not by the word hypnosis itself, since the word 'hypnosis' wasn't coined until 1847. Those that know and understand hypnosis easily recognize it. Some insight as to what is and isn't accepted in the Bible: Deuteronomy 18: 10 Let no one be found among you who sacrifices his son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, 11 or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritualist or who consults the dead. 12 Anyone who does these things is detestable to the Lord…
Leviticus 19:31 20: 6 says about the same thing. Even Adam fell into a deep sleep when God removed a rib in order to make woman. King David would play a harp until the King's countenance was altered.The anti-religious statements about hypnosis are made through ignorance...", I've heard..." "They say…" "The
Bible Says...." Once again, the knowledge that people have about hypnosis comes from the movies and eighty percent of what ninety per cent of people know about the Bible is what they have been told. If Adam was actually asleep, do you think he would notice his rib being removed. It would wake me up. However, God placed Adam 'into a deep sleep' (appeared to be asleep) to remove his rib to make woman is clearly using his mind to not feel pain and close up his hole in his side is power of the mind, with no pain. I've had surgery without any anesthesia, using only self hypnosis and felt no pain or discomfort when I was cut open with a 7" opening on my stomach to repair a hianal (sp) hernia. The mind is very powerful.

Hypnotists have no mind-controlling powers, we can't see into the future; we can’t cast spells or talk to the dead. One does not lose control of their mind but when one does participate in hypnosis, the mind uses more of its powers and the senses become keener and you become MORE AWARE, not less. The average person uses less than 10% of their mind power on a daily basis. The reason for this is because they are functioning most of the time with their physical consciousness, getting through the day, with random thoughts racing through their mind until they go to bed and drop off to sleep. By meditating, simply quieting that physical consciousness and relaxing, the mind automatically enters into an altered state, allowing the sub-consciousness to take over, which is where all the power lies. This is a time when you can re-program the mind, change habits but at least put it to good use, focusing on something positive.

Also there is an irrefutable safeguard of hypnosis that would keep anyone from abusing the power: Any suggestions that would go against a person’s morals, wishes, principles, or desires would quickly and automatically be rejected. No one can make anyone do anything they do not wish to do through hypnosis. If the hypnotists gives a suggestion and the person absolutely does not want to accept that suggestion, then they will not do it nor act upon it. That is a fact and well proven to be so CONTRARY TO WHAT SOME BELIEVE.

Every morning millions of Americans get up and go to work. Some use adding machines or computers or jackhammers to make a living. Some of us use hypnosis. That’s all. The truth is that everyone experiences some form of hypnosis everyday of the week. Hypnosis can be through the TV, advertisements, political campaigns, news and much more but are mostly negative type of hypnosis which doesn't benefit or help you at all and may only cause you frustration, anger or worry. Doctors are great hypnotists. If they tell you, you are sick or going to die, even if they're wrong and you believe it, you will play out the part. Hypnosis can be as simple as someone telling you something and you believe it, good or bad, right or wrong.

Hypnosis is a Greek word meaning “sleep”, once thought to be sleep, was a term coined in 1847 by Dr.James Braid.When he realized it was not sleep, he tried to change the term to mono-idealism, but it never caught on. Hypnosis is a meditation. All hypnosis is self-hypnosis. It is not sleep and it is not any kind of mind control. It is a guided meditation.

A "born again" Christian and ordained as a minister in the full gospel of Jesus Christ since 1997. If hypnosis was wrong, sinful or bad in any way, I wouldn't be doing it. It is not in any way, any kind of mind control, which is a big misconception that has stemmed from the old black and which movies as being such.

If it was mind control, then we would have 100% tithers and 100% attendance in our home church. There would never be any arguments or disagreements among anyone. If hypnosis was mind control or had supernatural powers to control peoples minds, then I would be making millions off the D.A.'s office pulling the truth out of everyone charged with a crime who does not want to confess to their crime. Since it does not work that way, then it stands to reason why hypnotists are not commonly used in the court rooms every day. Now if someone wanted to tell the truth, to remember things in detail and if they were willing to release that info to the public, then yes, hypnosis might be used and even able to help under those circumstances.

Face the facts. People are just people and no one has any human power over them other than themselves. People are easily influenced. The only power I claim to have is the fact that the Holy Spirit of God dwells within, and through His influence, His guidance and His unction's I am able to do what is called good. Without Him, life would not only be meaningless but I would be so helpless in my efforts to do good. I depend upon His love, His Word, His guidance and His instructions for all my life. Proverbs 3:5-6.

So if you have doubts talk to me. Have your pastor call me. Many claim to have victory in Christ, yet they live in fear. Fear of the things they do not understand. We have victory through Christ over all things. By the way, I’ve hypnotized many ministers over the years and I don’t recall a single one of them ever questioning the morals of my hypnotherapy or having any doubts to what I do.

Only those who have been grossly misinformed, ignorant of this subject have erred in saying that Hypnosis opens the doors to evil spirits. Then, they do not know the WORD of God. We know that light and darkness can not dwell together. Christ is the light so if you’re saved that means Christ lives with in you. If Christ lives in you then no demon or evil spirit can take up residence. The light of Christ drives out the darkness.

While I do not associate my hypnotherapy with any religion, I do use in all my hypnosis the guidance of bringing the white light to come in and fill you up until it is overflowing to become your aura of protection which is spiritual if you believe it to be or not if you don’t associate it with anything. Either way, light over powers darkness and it is a cleansing and healing for some and others, it may not mean anything. I work with people from all walks of life and I use this light to drive out dark energy which can be another whole subject but it is for one’s good, in their best interest. I personally imagine this bright white beam of light coming down from the infinite sky as a beam of light coming from God, connecting me with God as it fills me up, cleansing my soul, giving me peace and love. I imagine this white light surrounding me so any and all negative energy bounces off and away. It keeps me positive and happy, feeling good. I have learned over the past 17 years, just how much this simple guided imagination has helped people in so many ways and the feedback is always very positive.

(1 Cor 9:22) To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.

Romans 12: 1,2) Believers are to dedicate themselves to God. (v. 3-8) To be humble, and faithfully to use their spiritual gifts, in their respective stations. (v. 9-16) Exhortations to various duties. (v. 17-21) And to peaceable conduct towards all men, with forbearance and benevolence. Believers are to dedicate themselves to God.

(Rom 12:1) I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. (2) And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

We are to meditate on God's Word. In other words, we are to become so focused on Him that we are able to tune everything else out and not be distracted by the outside world. This is self-hypnosis.

(Gen 24:63) And Isaac went out to meditate in the field at the eventide: and he lifted up his eyes, and saw, and, behold, the camels were coming.

(Josh 1:8 KJV) This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

(Psa 1:2) But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

(Psa 77:12) I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.

(Psa 119:15) I will meditate in thy precepts, and have respect unto thy ways.

(Psa 119:23) Princes also did sit and speak against me: but thy servant did meditate in thy statutes.

(Psa 119:78 ) Let the proud be ashamed; for they dealt perversely with me without a cause: but I will meditate in thy precepts.

(Psa 119:148 ) Mine eyes Prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in thy word.

I’ve included an article from the Chaplain Paul G. Durbin, which I thought was very good and well written Excert From Hypnosis and Religious FaithKissing Frogs:Practical Uses of Hypnotherapy

Chapter 13: Hypnosis and Religious Faith by Chaplain Paul G. DurbinDiretor of Pastoral Care. Pendleton Memorial Methodist Hospital. New Orleans, La. Boom Days For Devil Hypnosis A few years ago, I read an article titled "Boom Days For Devil Hypnosis." by Kathleen Dohney in Family Weekly: August 19, 1984. Hearing that title: what ideas, images, thoughts come to your mind? Think about that for a moment and read portions from that article. The day before she underwent surgery for removal of a facial tumor, Iris Crall made what she thought was an unusual request. "I told my anesthesiologist I needed to be in the right frame of mind and asked if my psychologist could come for a hypnosis session," recalls the 40 year old woman. To Crall's surprise, her anesthesiologist not only agreed but offered to help. The night before the operation Crall was relaxed under hypnosis by her psychologist. The next day, the anesthesiologist used hypnosis to supplement mild general anesthesia.

Crall believes her relaxed positive state of mind, achieved through hypnosis speeded up her recovery. Increasing number of health-care professionals agree that hypnosis can be a great help. Hypnosis is a relaxed state in which the subconscious is more susceptible to suggestion. "Hypnosis can be a great help. Hypnosis is a relaxed state in which the subconscious is more susceptible to suggestion. Hypnosis is a name we give a perfectly normal process," explains Dr. Bernauer Newton. The AMA recognizes a place for hypnosis in medical treatment but the technique has its opponents. "Some conservative religious groups," says Hoffman, "consider hypnosis the work of the devil." When properly administered hypnosis is used in a supporting role in medical treatment, the vote of the health-care community is clear. Hypnosis can help. Though the article has what I consider a very negative title, it was a very positive article on Hypnosis. The only reference to the devil was in the last paragraph, "Some conservative religious groups consider hypnosis the work of the devil." Hypnosis is mistakenly viewed as mind control and demonic by many misinformed people. Recently, I received a physician consult to work with a woman for pain management. As I explained the process of relaxation, imagery, and hypnosis, I could see that she was very responsive. She said, "I am really looking forward to the experience, but I need to tell you that my daughter is a self-proclaimed born again Christian and she may say something negative to you about his. If so, do not pay any attention to her, for I am the one who is hurting and I want to do this." As I completed the induction, the phone rang. I told the patient, "Just allow the ringing of the phone and my answering it to add to your relaxation." I answered the phone, "This is Mrs. Doe's room. As she is in therapy, please call back in 30 minutes," and hung up the phone. When the procedure was completed, I walked out of the room and there was her daughter standing in front of the door with arms folded over her chest. She said, "What have you been doing to my mother?" I explained that I had thought her relaxation and self-hypnosis and pain reduction. She responded, "I am a born-again Christian." Before she could continue, I raised my hands and said, "Praise the Lord, so am I." She was speechless, so I continued, "I will bring you some information on hypnosis, but regardless of how you feel about hypnosis, your mother has found it very helpful in the reduction of pain." Though the title of this chapter is "Hypnosis and Religious Faith:", I will be dealing primarily with hypnosis and Judeo-Christian Faith. Whether you are a Christian or not, whether you are religious or not, many of your clients are religiously oriented people. The better you understand the client's religious history, the better you can relate to that person. History of Relationships Between Hypnosis and Religion

It could be said that the first written record of the use of hypnosis is found in the Old Testament Book of Genesis 2:21-22, "So the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon man, and while he slept took one of the ribs and closed up its place with flesh, and the rib which God took from man, He made woman and brought her to man." In this incident, God used hypnosis so that Adam felt no pain during the removal of his rib.

Chaplain W. Leo Peacock makes a point with his interpretation of Matthew's account of Joseph's dream concerning taking Mary as his wife. (Matthew 1:20-25) When Joseph discovered that Mary was expecting a child, he decided to break his engagement for he knew the child was not his. The story told of an "angel" or a "messenger" coming to Joseph in a dream. In this dream, the angel told Joseph to take Mary for his wife. Upon waking, Joseph did as the angel suggested. Peacock writes that this a clear description of an individual being given a post-hypnotic suggestion on which he immediately acts on as soon as he comes out of the hypnotic trance.

Paul speaks of being in trance while he was praying in the temple (Acts 22:17). Peter "fell into a trance" and from that experience came to see that God loves all people who come to him (Acts 10:1-48). Though the book of Acts, there are a number of references to the apostles looking into the eyes or gazing into the eyes of a person which resulted in the person being healed (Acts 14:9-10).

The practice of "laying on of hands" mentioned in the Bible, used some of the techniques of hypnosis. Over the centuries, hypnosis has had its ups and downs, but in recent years has become more acceptable.

In spite of the successes of hypnosis, we still have those who question its usefulness and others who see it a tool of the devil. One of our missions is to convince those who doubt and enlighten those who oppose, so that people may live better lives. Religious Organizations Position on Hypnosis Hypnosis is neither anti-religious nor pro-religious. It can be used for good or bad depending on the hypnotist and the subject.

Today most religious groups accept the proper use of hypnosis. Exceptions among Christian groups are Christian Science, Seventh-Day Adventist and some individuals of various churches. In recent years, the Seventh-Day Adventist have lessened their resistance by using relaxation and suggestion therapy. Though many in various churches opposed to hypnosis use the principles of hypnosis (including Christian Science and Seven-Day Adventists) in their healing service, they denounce hypnosis.

The Roman Catholic Church has issued statements approving the use of hypnosis. In 1847, a decree from the Sacred Congregation of the Holy office states, "Having removed all misconception, foretelling of the future, explicit or implicit invocation of the devil, the use of animal magnetism (Hypnosis) is indeed merely an act of making use of physical media that are otherwise licit and hence it is not morally forbidden provided it does not tend toward an illicit end or toward anything depraved."

The late Pope Pius gave his approval of hypnosis. He stated that the use of hypnosis by health care professionals for diagnosis and treatment is permitted. In 1956, in an address from the Vatican on hypnosis in child birth the Pope gives these guidelines: (1) Hypnotism is a serious matter, and not something to be dabbled in. (2) In its scientific use the precautions dictated by both science and morality are to be need. (3) Under the aspect of anaesthesia, it is governed by the same principles as other forms of anaesthesia. This is saying that the rules of good medicine apply to the use of hypnosis. Except for exceptions noted, no other Protestant Churches have any laws against the use of hypnotherapy. To the best of my knowledge, there has been no opposition to the use of hypnosis in the Jewish Faith when it is used for the benefit of mankind.

Many of the Far Eastern Faiths: Buddhism, Yoga, Shintoism, and others approve the use of hypnosis and they often use hypnosis techniques in their worship. The Christian Church also uses many hypnotic techniques in their worship. The use of eye fixation on the candles, cross, and pulpit; the bowing of the head in prayer; and the closing of eyes in prayer. The Moslem religion has no opposition to hypnosis that I have been able to discover.

For those who oppose hypnosis on religious ground, I remind them of the words of Jon Baptist Van Helmont, "Hypnosis is a universal agent...and is a paradox only to those who are disposed to ridicule everything, who ascribe to the influence of Satan all phemanema which they cannot explain."

Some say that hypnosis places the soul in a passively receptive state and opens the door to morbid spiritual influences. If this is correct, then prayer, meditation, the process of going to sleep, and chemical anesthesia place the individual in a similar state to hypnosis.

Jesus indicated by his teachings that we should help peoples live life to its fullest and relieve pain whenever possible. Hypnosis should not be condemned as anti-religious just because a few people misuse it. Some oppose hypnosis because it is used by the occult, but do we condemn prayer because prayer is used by the occult?

Hypnosis is a very helpful tool of counseling. Without apology and when appropriate, hypnosis should be used for growth, health, overcoming unwanted habits and the benefit of people. In the years ahead, may those who discount hypnosis, come to see its value. May those who oppose hypnosis on religious grounds come to view it as a gift of God to help us attain the more abundant life.

Jesus said, "The spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He hath anointed me to teach the gospel to the poor. He hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised." (Luke 4:18)

Following this guidance and with the proper use of hypnosis; we can heal the brokenhearted, bring deliverance to those in captivity to pain, fear, and phobias; gave sight to the emotionally and spiritually blind, and set at liberty those who are bound by unwanted habits. As members of different denominations and religions, let us join hands in brotherhood to share the blessings of hypnosis with others. Taken from http://www.neurosemantics.com/

A Little History of Hypnosis by Cheryl J. Savage

noreply@blogger.com (C.J. Savage) — Tue, 14 Dec 2010 14:04:00 -0600

Hypnosis isn’t anything new. The first known written record of the use of hypnosis is found in the Old Testament Book of Genesis 2:21- 22, “so the Lord God caused a Deep Sleep to fall upon man, and while he slept, took one of the ribs and closed up its place of flesh…” God used hypnosis so that Adam felt no pain
during the removal of his rib. The Bible speaks of hypnosis more than a 1000 times, several times in Acts: Peter fell into a trance & from that experience came to see that God loves all people who come to him Acts10: 1- 48. Now, it doesn’t use the word hypnosis but those who understand it, recognize and use hypnosis realize God and many others in Biblical times used hypnosis. We are still in Biblical times. And the word Hypnosis wasn’t coined until 1847 by a Scottish Physician, Dr James Braid, a Greek word meaning “sleep” but realizing later it was not sleep, Braid tried to introduce a new word for it: mono-ideism but it never caught on. People loved the term hypnosis too much. Stone Carvings of sleep temples have been found dating back as far as 1000 B.C. and in these temples, high priests put worshippers to what appeared to be “asleep” and the worshippers were given suggestions and while they were asleep, some god or entity would come to them and they would be healed and they usually were. Sleep temples were very popular with the Greeks & Romans from 400 to 100 B.C. Old Books, Old References refer to it as mind control. It was once thought that it was some kind of mind control but newer scientific evidence proves the person is in complete control all the time and actually more aware. The senses become keener and you become MORE alert. You will never do anything against your will, beliefs, desires or morals. That is a fact regardless of what some think. Is it powerful? Extremely powerful. It’s also extremely easy which makes most people think they can’t do it. Too easy. They think it has to be more difficult than it is. Hypnotic techniques have continued to be used throughout the centuries. One of the most famous practitioners of hypnosis was an Austrian physician, Dr Franz Anton Mesmer in the late 1700’s. Modern hypnosis was once believed to have begun with him. Many went to him to be “mesmerized”. They were usually healed. Mesmer was a true master of suggestion. The first physician to study Mesmer’s work seriously was Dr. James Braid who introduced the word “hypnosis” In the mid 1800’s, Braid & 2 other Physician’s, Dr James Esdaile and Dr. John Elliotson, used hypnosis in their practice in England & performed surgeries using only hypnosis as an anesthesia and with suggestions of healing. The mortality rate for major surgery at that time was about 50%. But in 800 some operations, using hypnotic techniques & suggestions, the mortality dropped to 5 % with none of the fatalities being an immediate outcome of surgery. Dr. Braid considered hypnosis’ a natural God-given method of healing. At that time, in 1847 The Roman Catholic Church issued a decree supporting proper use of hypnosis. In 1956, The late Pope Pius stated the approval of the proper use of hypnosis and has since been accepted by nearly every religion in the world except by some Christian Scientists and those individuals in various churches that don’t know enough about hypnosis other than what relate it to the old late night black & white horror movies, being forced to do things against their will. During WWII and the Korean War, hypnosis was used in the treatment of battle fatigue and for pain control. Many declare they wouldn’t have made it if it wasn’t for the hypnosis. Now, hypnosis is widely accepted and growing rapidly in popularity in the 21 st century, now used by most health care organizations, including doctors, hospitals, psychiatrists, psychologists, law enforcement, clergy, and many more.
