The Monthly Trance - Happy 2009!

Newsletter:  Where attention goes, energy flows! 
December 2008 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

December, 2008

Hi, Hypno-Friends!

Happy Holidays from the Mindworks Hypnosis family to you and yours!  Here's to making 2009 a most exciting, fulfilling, successful year of our lives, and incorporating the techniques and skills of hypnosis to help us get there.  We're excited to report some new beginnings for ourselves:   Michael has been elected as President of the NGHWA, National Guild of Hypnotists, Washington State Chapter, for 2009! And I've been elected to the Board of Directors as well, as Treasurer!

Where Attention Goes, Energy Flows
 
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

Connie Brannan

 
New year.  New start.  We always think about newness at this time of year, in the form of "New Year's Resolutions."  Making changes, improvements, thinking about how I want to make my life better, in this way, that way...  My personal new year's resolution is marketing my business more successfully, yours may be to quit smoking, let go of a few pounds, and so on.  How to do that?  What you focus on expands.  Where attention goes, energy flows.
 

Here are the questions I used to ask myself in an attempt to propel myself forward on a project or task or to try something new when I felt hesitant and fearful:
 
 
What am I afraid of?
What's the worst that could possibly happen?
 
These questions focus attention on the fear and negative outcomes.  Ok, what am I afraid of?  Uncertainty, failure, expense, humiliation, ruination?  What's the worst that could possibly happen?  That one opens up an even larger shop of horrors in my mind!!  What you focus on expands.  As you churn up and expand your fear and play out all the ideas of what could go wrong in excruciating detail, does that increase your feelings of "I can do it" or "I will do it," or even "I'm likely to do it?"   I don't think so!  Here's what you need to do to break out of that straightjacket:  Think outside the box, the box being your fear.  What's outside there?  What are you not seeing now?
 
 
I can't do it.  Ask yourself different questions, which will activate a search for positive powers in your mind.  "What if I could?  What would it be like if I could?  If I had all the resources I need in this moment to handle this in the most efficient, effective, powerful, and easy way possible, what might those resources be? Could it be that I can't not do it?  What, separate from me, can't do it?  What else can't not do it?  What am I not noticing now that's beyond the fear such that if I could see it, I can do it.  And do it well!  ...Easily...Efficiently... Successfully."
 

Imagine the most positive outcome, and jump into it.  Experience it in your mind.  The end of the process, event, decision, or whatever you're mulling over.  It's a done deal.  And it turned out PERFECTLY.  Ideally.  Better than you could have imagined.  Only you are imagining it, now.  In all its glorious perfection.  How do you feel, now that it all worked out so perfectly?  What are your emotions, what are your results?  Is there pride, increased self-esteem, satisfaction?  Joy?  Has it increased your financial security?  How has your success affected others in a positive way?  What is the good you've accomplished?  Take this pool of positive emotions and ideas generated, and dive in.  Splash around for awhile.  It's all good.  Prime your unconscious mind to "make it so!"  That's certainly better than focusing on and growing your fear.
 

Where attention goes, energy flows.  Make it a positive energy and propel yourself forward to new heights, new successes, new powers.  New freedom from that which had been holding you back.

January 24th Self Hypnosis Workshop
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
 
Self hypnosis is a very powerful way to prime your mind for success, and learn to plant your own suggestions/seeds for positive growth.  If you'd like to learn to do this, Michael and I are offering a one-day, all day workshop on Saturday, January 24th in Bellevue, Washington.  We'll both be teaching/hypnotizing, and you'll experience hypnosis, and learn the whole self-hypnosis process from soup to nuts, how the mind works, how to create well-formed outcomes, how to craft suggestions, language of influence, the mind-body connection, plus several methods for putting yourself easily into trance.  This is hands-on learning, experiential, fun!  Join us.  The cost of this life-altering seminar is a mere $197.  Call (425) 564-8608 to sign up, or email connie@mindworkshypnosis.net.  Bring a friend bonus!  For each friend you refer who also signs up, save an additional $20 off the seminar fee.

We hope you'll join us and learn more about the life-enriching power of hypnosis!
