Hi, Hypno-Friends!
I love Facebook. And I often see photos from my Seattle friends, hypnosis friends and others, shared on my home page which I “like.” I see beautiful nature pics, cutesy animals, inspirational words, etc. I noticed one picture today I really like. It’s words of wisdom from Glinda:
- Hypnosis is Your Power.
“You had the power all along, my dear.” Glinda tells Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz. YES!
And so do you.
What is hypnosis? It’s the power of your mind to be creative and solve problems. What does a hypnotherapist do? A hypnotherapist does not solve your problems for you. A hypnotherapist leads you into this cache of power inside YOU and helps you activate that power. You become resourceful and solve your own “problems.” Only, you come to realize that they were not problems at all, just choices. And you find the power to make different and more useful choices.
My favorite teacher is named Dr. Richard Bandler. He’s the co-originator of NLP, Neuro-Linguistic Programming, and as far as I’m concerned, the “King” of hypnosis. I’m very fond of Dr. Bandler. After lecture one day in Orlando, I approached him and asked him to autograph one of his books for me. I have many, many of his books, but my prize is a “first edition” of Frogs Into Princes. He was kind enough to sign my book.
Dr. Bandler has a very distinctive handwriting and it took me a second or two to decipher his message for me. “Connie, find your power!”
Right on! Yes. And I do. Everyday. I copied that page of the book, and cut out those words and they are now residing on my desk at my Bellevue hypnotherapy clinic. “Find your power.” I look at them every day, consciously and unconsciously. “Find your power.” Yes! I activate that suggestion.
As Glinda knows, the power is in us. When you’re ready to activate your power, consider hypnosis–it’s absolutely the doorway in. Every day I help Seattle area people do just that!
Warm Regards,
Connie
