Hi, here’s another “musing.”\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42\u00a0 I was on the phone today with a potential\u00a0student for my NLP\u00a0and hypnosis trainings, and she\u00a0informed me that my website,\u00a0Mindworks Hypnosis<\/a>\u00a0was\u00a0overly “stimulating.”\u00a0 I laughed out loud.\u00a0 I’m doubtful that she meant something positive by it, but I see that comment as a good thing!\u00a0 Oh, yes!<\/p>\n

Stimulation is good in my book.\u00a0 According to dictionary dot com, stimulation means:\u00a0 arouse, activate, excite.\u00a0 Those words all sound beautiful to me.\u00a0 OVER-stimulation, well, that’s a sliding scale of subjectivity, and everyone is different.\u00a0 Some people would be overstimulated sitting quiety in a dark room, and others might be UNDER-stimulated while riding a roller-coaster at the fair.\u00a0 If there were no stimulation, life would be a flat line affair.<\/p>\n

Arouse!\u00a0 Activate!\u00a0 Excite!\u00a0 Yes, that’s what I want my website to do!\u00a0 Yes, that’s what I want my words and stories to do, whether I’m teaching or working with clients, or just talking, or writing this blog.\u00a0 And yes, that’s what hypnosis itself does.\u00a0\u00a0 Hypnosis = Stimulation.\u00a0 In hypnosis, we stimulate the unconscious mind–to see that things can be different, and better.<\/p>\n

In discussions with hypno-friends we discuss this idea of sleep.\u00a0 Hypnosis as sleep.\u00a0 How erroneous can an idea be??\u00a0\u00a0What hypnosis does is wake a person up!!\u00a0 Wake a person up to new possibilities and creativity and his\/her own strengths and abilities\u00a0to move in that direction.\u00a0 Wake up!!\u00a0\u00a0 A lot of us live self-imposed limited lives, we trudge through a lot of our\u00a0days on autopilot, with blinders on, robotic, zombie-like, and assuming what happened yesterday has to happen today and has to happen tomorrow.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Boxes, walls, trapped!\u00a0 (I know this feeling, because I used to live this way, too.)\u00a0 Trapped!\u00a0 No way, Jose!\u00a0 Wake up!!\u00a0 Hypnosis wakes a person up to choice, and stimulates a recognition of the limitless vistas of possibility.<\/p>\n

Things can be different.\u00a0 Beginning now.<\/p>\n

I’m happy to stimulate people to see beyond, to imagine more.\u00a0 When that girl said my website was too “stimulating,” I think she meant it as a criticism.\u00a0 I take it as a giant compliment!<\/p>\n

Warm Regards,
