Beating Your Fears

Have you ever felt afraid - I mean so much so that it prevented you from doing something you really wanted to do? Believe it or not, this is more common problem than you may think and is faced by many people daily.

Fear has such power that it can prevent you from doing the things you want to. Sailing, following your dreams, skydiving, even achieving success, whatever. It can hold you back from the quality of life you desire if you allow it to control you long enough.

Many people don't realize that fear is nothing more than natural reaction to a frightening or unfamiliar situation. While you usually feel this with no conscious effort on your part, there are things you can do to help overcome it.

Expecting negative results from something feeds your fear. Worrying about what could go wrong doesn't help. Concentrate on a positive outcome and what you can do to make it happen.

Make a conscious effort to expect the best by looking for the positive in every situation. And if fear does manage to creep into your consciousness, keep it in perspective and balance it against an underlying sense of confidence.

It's easy for someone else to tell say "don't worry about it" or "it'll be fine", easy for them to say. This may be true, but it sure doesn't feel that way at the time. However if you deal with your fear as it arises, you may be able to keep it under control.

For example, most people have a fear of public speaking. Now your boss wants you to give a presentation at work, what are you going to do? Quit? You might feel like your life is on the line. Or at least your job. You may feel to look inadequate to your co-workers.

Will this happen? Most likely not. So instead of worrying about the "what ifs" focus on ways to help your presentation. Be well prepared, practice your on friends and family members or even in front of the mirror.

If you remember that fear is just a feeling, it loses much of its power. It can't harm you and in fact can keep you safe in potentially dangerous situations. Like not walking down that dark alley at night.

Look at the pros and cons in any situation on a case by case basis. You may see that any negative consequences are not as bad as you think. This may be a time to ignore your fear and go for it! The point isn't to go wild and start doing everything without considering the consequences, but rather realize whether your fear is justified or not.

Hypnosis Makes Weight Loss Easier

It's really peculiar when I hypnotize weight loss clients they have this idea that the hypnosis will make fat jump off their body. At least that's how they seem to respond sometimes. After their hypnosis sessions they will have healthier eating patterns, healthier food choices and become more active but if they don't lose weight right away they get disappointed and think hypnosis wasn't successful.

The problem is even something so clear and helpful like weight loss by hypnosis gets overlooked in the barrage of weight loss information and books available. With all the books that no one ever sees we could maybe heat up the homes in Boston for the next winter. It's sad at how many books are written, and I'm sure some of them are incredible and I would absolutely add them to my study, but we'll never know. Like the one about weight loss by hypnosis

More and more the topic of weight loss hypnosis is becoming known by people who seek a weight loss approach that actually works, and I don't mean for a while and then go back to your old way. Of course there are programs that will assist a person to actually lose weight, hardly ever without a struggle, but it isn't enough to create a lifestyle change. I hear it all the time… "I now weight more after dieting for years than when I first started. I lose weight and then I gain back more." This is why weight loss hypnosis is the key to real change to create a healthy lifestyle so the weight doesn't keep coming back.

The issue with food and over eating coupled with lack of activity, mostly due to electronics as entertainment, weight loss hypnosis for children is real but all they'd have to do is be told to go out and play and for adults to stop over feeding the kids and when they do, feed them healthier food. Weight loss hypnosis for children is yet another sign of a declining society sinking deeper into the hole of bad health.

I sometimes wonder is there a weight loss program available that truly is different? It seems they all teach you what you already know, or at least after the first weight loss program you join you learn what you need to in order to be aware of what you need to do to lose weight. Fact is we all know what to do without any programs; stop eating unhealthy fast food and everything else that causes fat and physical harm and eat what is healthier.

I know there can be discussions and debates about the best way to lose weight, what works fastest, best, safest or cheapest. What matters is what works for you because if something isn't comfortable then it won't be something you'll stick with. Consistency in anything we do is important even with weight loss thru hypnosis. It's repetition that creates habits and what we want to do is have healthy habits and not have to struggle and rollercoaster in our behaviors.

Creating healthy habits and a healthier lifestyle is the way to maintain a healthy weight to look good, feel good and maybe even live longer. Odds are it isn't going to hurt and weight loss thru hypnosis can be a wonderful part of that approach. I have had many clients make the mistake of thinking they'll get hypnotized, change and never have to worry again. The truth is what we use that works needs to be applied, exercise, eating right or hypnosis.

About Being Conscious Of Your Unconscious

Becoming Conscious of Your Unconscious

It was only in the 20th Century that Sigmund Freud asserted that we have an unconscious mind.

Since then, many techniques have been created to figure out this 'storehouse' of our memories, dreams, and emotions. But what is the unconscious mind? And how can we utilise it to become more whole, or healthy?

There are some things in life you feel you have no control over. Whether its the way you feel when you wake up in the morning, that cup of coffee you seem to need to have, or perhaps the way you think about yourself when you look in the mirror-Your unconscious mind runs all of these behaviours and beliefs. Anything that is repeated several times becomes an unconscious habit.

We are still learning and discovering more about the unconscious mind, but what we do know is that it is very subserviant. It acts in your best interests, and is always trying to fulfil a need.

You may be thinking, how is smoking in my best interests?!? Surely my unconscious mind causes me to smoke, as I can't control my cravings! And you'd be right, your unconscious mind does run your habits. But they were created first and foremost for a reason. Unconsciously you may have wanted to relieve stress, boredom, or cope with a social situation of some sort.

Let's think of your unconscious mind as being like SatNav in a car, and your conscious mind as being the driver. Lets go one step further and say that the car is super-sophisticated and when you program in your Sat Nav, the car will drive itself and get you to where you want to be. Sounds like a good car! But then whats the use of the driver? I hear you say. Well, the driver has the autonomy to program the car, to send it directly where he or she wants to be. And the Sat Nav wilfully responds.

So we can say this is a perfect metaphor for how your conscious and unconscious mind works. You are in the driving seat, you have the power to direct your unconscious mind. Unfortunately most people do not know how they can do this, or even that it is possible! However, since the discovery of the unconscious many have attempted to retrain the unconscious mind to get you where you want to be. Indeed, Empowerment gurus such as Anthony Robbins and Joseph Clough have proven how you can change every area of your life by re-training your unconscious mind.

Sounds too easy to be true? Well, the reason it is so powerful is because your unconscious mind does not know the difference between a real or an imagined situation. This is why dreams can affect us so profoundly and we can wake up in a cold sweat or feeling an emotion in our bodies that wasn't actually real.

As we move towards a whole understanding of science and ourselves, the unconscious mind appears to be a gateway towards accessing the incredible power of our unconscious mind. There have been many successful studies in hypnosis showing that trance can suppress pain, facilitate healing, and much more. The mystery of how and why it works is still as yet unknown.

What the discovery of the unconscious mind shows is that we have access to much more power than we previously thought. As we learn more about our own unconscious mind, we can start to work with it and familiarise ourselves with the way it works. Our unconscious mind is our faithful servant; it is the 'program' or software to how we run our lives.

Imagine what would happen if we got back in the driving seat, if we attempted to harness the power of our own unconscious?

Being in control of our minds allows the conscious and the unconscious to work in harmony with each other- the car is driving to the driver's intended destination.

As we strive to become whole, healthy and happy, perhaps we need only to listen to the subtle forces that guide our thinking in order to relinquish control.

Becoming A Real Hypnotist

A large number of people have thought about trying to learn hypnosis,but they hesitate because they are under the false impression that hypnosis is some type of mystical, smoke and mirrors approach to solving personal problems. The truth is hypnosis is simply a method you can use to make massive improvements in your life. In fact, hypnosis is one of the easiest ways to help you overcome problems and achieve success.

In order to change our behavior, we need to reach the subconscious mind. The conscious mind simply reacts to the programming that is stored at a deeper level. We need to get to this deep level storage space (subconscious mind) in order to bring about long-lasting change. Hypnosis and self-hypnosis can be used to alter the "bad" programming which is often the cause of certain negative behaviors that we want to stop.

The good news is that it is easy to learn how to do hypnosis. The latest tools for learning are based upon a new approach called "brainwave entertainment, or brainwave programming". Hopefully, most of you have read how brain wave frequencies vary according to mental state. For example, daydreaming and light meditation take place in the "Alpha" range of frequencies. With brainwave programming, you only need to listen to a CD, and have it transport you easily and quickly to a meditative state? Would not it be great to start getting all the proven benefits of meditation, without the self discipline and work normally required? Once you learn to unlock the hidden mental power that lay dormant most of the time in yourself, the next step to using what you have learned to influence other people will be quick and easy. Remember that brainwave entertainment is a form of self-hypnosis. And, hypnosis can help the unconscious mind to replace feelings of discomfort with pleasant comfortable feelings, which is the first step to positive behavioral changes.

To become a real hypnotist you must began by using self hypnosis techniques on yourself. To just name a few, hypnosis techniques on yourself can help you to quickly and easily overcome addictions, end pain, lose weight, stop smoking, and most importantly, help you to achieve your true potential and improve your life. All you have to do is get a CD based upon brainwave programming and listen to get the changes you want.

Unfortunately, most of us start our in life allowing negative thoughts to influence our everyday lives. We have problems with self-confidence, health and relationships. Thankfully, it is not too late to start living life as a winner. Winners feel good about themselves and live a life filled with friends, feelings of confidence and self esteem. Brainwave programming is about focusing upon replacing negative emotions and fear with positive emotions and confidence in any situation by changing your thoughts and feelings. And, remember that all you have to do is listen. Once you have conquered you own negative thoughts and negative self image, you will be ready to take the next step and use what you have learned to help yourself to help love ones and other people. You can show other how to delve deep inside their own subconscious to address the issues that are holding them back and creating problems in their life. Then, you will truly be a real hypnotist.

Mind Movies Review

It is a pleasure to keep the public aware of new products on the market. Through my on use of various product that I personally buy, today, I will comment on this product, Mind Movies.

Radical Enoch's Reviews will give you an in-depth report on Mind Movies. This is a step-by-step video tutorial package with some great bonuses.

At first, I was pretty excited about buying my Mind Movie software package. After reviewing their website and typing in my email address on there squeeze page to received more information. Once I was redirected to there main website I was happy with what I read and placed an order so that I may experience this product for myself. My excitement remained!

I was please with the fact that to make your on movies was magnificently easy to make! Although, I do have some knowledge and skills required to make movies. I'm happy to tell you that it is true. You do not need any special skills or technical know-how. Now, all the hard stuff has been done which is reflected in the price of the software. You will need to devote some time, around an hour and a half to two hours max, to create your own Mind Movie.

Once I completed my Mind Movie it worked like a charm. I do not know about you but, I enjoy being able to create my on movies. This got me thinking that I could easily create my own movies on spirituality, movies to help me change my subconscious mind positively and movies about mind over matter. I could go on but, I hope you get my drift, with this software you are able to shift your mindset.

Three short steps to be taking in creating your own Mind Movies:

1. Create a short script for your Mind Movies.

2. Now you find your photo with a cool little program or insert your own.

3. Began putting everything together. Rayn will walk you through the step-by-step process of creating your personal Mind Movies.

I must say, that the instruction on creating and putting the creation process all together was explain in a very simple to understand video tutorial. The Mind Movie team did a very good job at making sure that who ever purchase their product would have easy to understand video instruction. You can be sure that you will know how to install your new proprietary software to learning how to edit your movie.

The Mind Movie team also, realize that not everyone will be using the same type of computer. So, it does not matter if you are using a PC or Mac. I feel that the team from mind movie has made this software exciting, easy, and powerful for its customers. I can assure you that you can start today and feel the affects that the movies you create will have on your own mindset. It will probably take you around 45 minutes to create your first mind movie and than you will be watching what you have created.

Please be aware that if you have Microsoft Windows you will need a program called Power Point to create part of your movies. The Mind Movie team do point this out before you buy, so you will not be purchasing this software without knowing this. This is what I like about the mind movie team. The team seem to be up front in not keeping there customers in the dark on any issue that arises. Now, if you do not have Power Point, no problem, because you can download a program call Open Office which has the same features as MS Office and it is free.

I agree with the team, when its mentioned in the literature that the bonus material alone justifies there price. The bonus includes videos on the way our minds work as well as how to create powerful affirmations. You will also receive mp3 audio's featuring Chris Dines and a very interesting interview with the one and only Dr. Joe Vitale.

You will also, receive six free Mind Movies to see for yourself what this is all about. Which I feel is a good deal within itself. The lists of the free mind movies are below:

1. Wealth & Improving Your Finances

About Hypnosis

There are many stories about hypnotherapy being dangerous, turning people into chickens, people not being able to wake up, and unscrupulous hypnotists exploiting their 'vulnerable' patients. However there are many people who are adamant that it has helped change their lives, helping them succeed in their goals. Millions of people swear that it has helped them with many issues such as weight loss, quitting smoking, other addictions, confidence, phobias, stress, success, IBS, and many more issues.

Many people are missing out on this powerful yet safe therapeutic tool because they are too afraid to use it. I hope to dispel these fears by answering these common questions about hypnotherapy.

Can I be hypnotized? Most people can go into a hypnotic trance. The only types of people that cannot be hypnotised are ... 1. Those suffering from psychosis or a thought disorder 2. A person with a low IQ 3. A person does not want to be hypnotised. It is very easy to resist hypnosis if you want to.

What is a hypnotic trance? It is a normal and natural state that most of us experience several times a day. It commonly happens when people are driving. Have you ever driven somewhere and not really remembered the journey? It also often occurs when reading a book or watching TV. Sometimes you can be so absorbed in the book or TV programme that you are not consciously aware that someone is talking to you. Hypnosis is the focussing of the conscious attention in such a narrow corridor of influence. The conscious mind is so intensely focussed that other influences are not being critically analysed by the conscious mind. We still hear them, although we are not always aware. A good example of this is when you are in a place where there are several conversations going on at once. They may all sound like a mass of background noise. However if someone in one of those conversations mentions your name, you then consciously focus on that conversation. How did you know someone said your name? Your subconscious mind (which is far more powerful than your conscious mind) was listening to EVERY conversation AT THE SAME TIME! That is perhaps a reason why you can sometimes "just know" something. Your subconscious mind has absorbed it without you consciously being aware.

What does hypnosis feel like? When in a trance you feel more mentally and physically relaxed. It is a very pleasant experience, and you can tell that you are still in control. You can still hear exactly what is going on around you, unless you choose to drift your attention away. You become aware that you can easily stand up, talk, or move whenever you want. A lot of people (me included) when they first experience a hypnotic trance move their fingers or hands in order to test whether they can move at will. Sometimes a patient can be a little difficult to wake up. This is not a sinister thing as it has been portrayed. No one has ever been stuck in trance. It is more a case that a patient just "can't be bothered" to wake up as it feels so pleasant. However they soon become bored and will wake up pretty soon. One trick the old hypnosis pro's use is to tell the patient that they are charging for the time. It's amazing how quickly they then wake up!

Is hypnosis dangerous? A hypnotic trance is actually a very natural state that almost everyone goes into several times per day. In 1955 the British Medical Association set up an inquiry which favourably reported hypnosis as a therapeutic tool. It even recommended that it should be taught at medical schools. Hypnosis was also approved by the Council of Mental Health of the American Medical Association in September of 1958 as a safe practice with no harmful side effects. Since then there has been acceleration in the establishment of hypnosis societies for doctors, dentists, and psychologists. No one has been seriously hurt with hypnosis.

Can I be made to do things against my will? You could never be made to do anything against your will or contrary to your value system. If this was actually possible, would there not be criminals learning the art of hypnotherapy in order to hypnotise their bank managers to opening the vaults and handing over a large sum of cash?! In a trance, you would not unknowingly reveal your deepest secrets. You can even lie when in a trance, which is one reason why testimony in hypnosis is not permissible evidence in a court of law. It is only used by police to help with the investigation. A person will only act upon suggestions that serve them in some way or reinforce an expected behaviour, anything else their subconscious will just ignore. Most people develop these misperceptions from seeing or hearing about a Stage Hypnosis show. However they largely achieve their results from showmanship, selection of the more extrovert people, and peer pressure.

How long will it take before I notice a change? In one session, you can expect to become more relaxed than you are right now. Most people do not relax enough, and some people never seem to relax! Being more relaxed can help most mental and physical problems that you may have. I have often had patients report back to me that people noticed that they seemed more relaxed after just one session. In the past I have significantly helped problems such as IBS, skin complaints, and addictions, simply by doing relaxation work. Hypnosis can bridge the gap between your head and your heart, making your goals much more emotionally compelling, and therefore increasing your chances of permanent change. Depending upon the intensity of your session and the number of times you have listened to the recording, you will notice suggestions for the desired behavioural changes spontaneously popping into your conscious mind almost immediately.

8 Best Tips For Successful Autosuggestion

AUTOSUGGESTION

What is autosuggestion?

Autosuggestion, Affirmations, Self-hypnosis or I AM statements can be used to influence our subconscious mind into believing positive things about ourselves. The subconscious mind accepts and believes the information which the conscious mind feeds it on a regular basis. Anything we think or say over and over will become an intrinsic part of our character. The notion is, we can condition our subconscious mind to hold only positive self beliefs, and therefore will become the reality we experience. For example one who exclaims ' I am happy' everyday is more than likely going to experience and recognise more happiness on a day to day basis than one who says ' I suffer from depression'. Simple isn't it? I know, but it's unbelievable how this obvious but infinitely valuable tool is disregarded. It's almost too easy to be true, but reason attests to truth of this effective procedure.

Things to remember when practicing autosuggestion

1. Say it aloud. Like prayer, autosuggestion is made more powerful when said vocally

2. Believe and feel the emotions connected to the statements. It is imperative, that when making your declarations, that you really FEEL and BELIEVE them. This is the key. If you have trouble actually believing, if there are any doubts at all, then make it more believable to yourself by stating it in future terms. For example if you say I AM RICH, you may look around and see your present circumstances and feel like you are trying to fool yourself. Instead say I AM IN THE PROCESS OF BECOMING RICH. This way will eliminate doubts and may feel more real to you. Having said this, where ever possible use the present tense. Just use your judgement as to how much you really believe it. If you believe yourself to be good looking go right ahead and utter I AM ATTRACTIVE, if you don't believe that however, try I AM GETTING MORE ATTRACTIVE EVERYDAY. It's more plausible to the doubting mind, and over time the weakness will become strength.

3. Repeat often, at the very least once a day

4. Be careful of the wording. The sub conscious does not acknowledge negatives, DO NOT IMAGINE A PINK ELEPHANT UP A BLUE TREE. I know what you just did; you just thought of a pink elephant up a blue tree didn't you? This is because our sub conscious mind does not register negatives. It skipped the DO NOT in my suggestion to you and went with the more positive command of IMAGINE A PINK ELEPHANT UP A BLUE TREE, which you did. In a recent Derren Brown experiment he illustrated this concept of negative suggestion, by suggesting to his unsuspecting participant, that if she were to press the red button in front of her it would kill a cat in a glass tank next to her. He repeats many times, DO NOT PRESS THE RED BUTTON, whatever you do; do not press the red button. Then he leaves the room. Guess what she does? Yes, she pressed it, even though it is plain to see she likes the cat and really doesn't want to do it, he has actually suggested to her PRESS THE RED BUTTON, whatever you do, press the red button, too many time s for her to resist the urge. By the way, the cat was fine and afterwards he explains to her it was all a set up, and gave her a prize to compensate for enduring the ordeal. Why am I telling you this? Because the same applies in autosuggestion, negative suggestion will also work and give you the reverse effect. So instead of saying IM NOT FAT, say I AM LEAN, MUSCULAR AND TONED, rather than IM NOT STUPID, declare IM SO INTELLIGENT! Catch my drift? Make sure all your statements are worded positively. The sub conscious mind is like fertile land, but it will bring forth weeds just as readily as it will desirable crops. Therefore, take care that you only sow desirable seeds.

5. Make it specific and general. For example I AM BRILLIANT AT FOOTBALL would be very general, to be more distinct you could say I WILL SCORE A HAT TRICK or I WILL KEEP A CLEAN SHEET, depending on whether you're a striker or a goalie, just tailor it your own needs.

6. Where ever it is relevant, use I AM..., there is something very powerful about those words. God describes himself to us in this way. It is wise for us to do so too, so long as you declare something constructive and good.

7. Write them down! Writing them is not only a good way to record them, but also the process of actually writing you're affirmations out is very beneficial and quite therapeutic.

8. Remember the compliments you receive, Forget the insults. Those are words from the song Sunscreen by Baz Luhrmann. They are very important. We must always remember it is not just our own opinions that affect us. Others are also using autosuggestion on you. If someone says YOUR FAT, YOUR A TERRIBLE SINGER or YOUR BROTHER IS THE SMART ONE, unfortunately we readily accept these types of comments as true and they can be hard to shake off. Many build inferiority complexes because a parent, spouse, colleague or friend was too careless to think of the effect such a comment may have. In turn we must always monitor that which we say to others. If it is not uplifting then don't say it. Also when we do receive a compliment, accept it! It's ok! For some reason we as humans find it so tough to show gratitude for a compliment. Someone says WOW I LOVE YOUR DRESS, and the response is "Oh you mean this old thing? No it makes my bum look big". Accept the compliment and perhaps reply with one too. The more you give and accep t compliments the more you will receive. The less you mock others and ignore when they do offend you, you will discover the amount of insults you receive from others will decrease.

Good luck! Stuck for ideas? Here's a list of autosuggestions you may find handy!

Using Hypnosis To Control Panic Attacks

What is a panic attack?

It is normal, natural and common to get panicky from time to time. You may be late for work, think you can hear a burglar downstairs, or be ready to sit an exam. These feelings are normal and pass fairly quickly. They are simply down to our 'flight or fight' responses that our body has been equipped with to prepare for potentially threatening situations. The heart beats quicker and the digestive system closes down in order to allow the body to concentrate on the perceived threat.

A panic attack has similarities with this, but there are notable differences. A panic attack often occurs when there is no obvious physical threat, and the feelings are stronger than 'normal' panic. However panic attacks are not dangerous and therefore nothing bad is actually going to happen to you. It is very important that you accept this. It is simply like a false alarm - like an annoying smoke detector that goes off at the wrong times. The problem is that our 'alarm system' was designed millions of years ago when we had many more potential dangers to deal with. We have a lot less potential threats to deal with now, but our body does not know this. Instead today we also have lots of different stresses that we are not designed to deal with (see article on stress).

A large number of people have experienced panic attacks at some point in their lives. Some people may get them daily, whereas others may get them every few months or even years. They are fairly common and are not a sign of mental illness.

Some of the symptoms include:

Heart pounding, beating fast, or missing a beat Chest pains Breathing fast or feeling short of breath Numbness or tingling in the fingers toes or lips Feeling sick Feeling faint Feelings of terror Feelings of unreality, like you are not really there Feeling anxious in situations where you have had a panic attack before

People often think negative thoughts, which are untrue, such as:

I am having a heart attack I am going to be sick I cannot breath I am going to make an idiot of myself I have to get out of here now

After experiencing a panic attack people sometimes escape the situation and avoid it in the future. This can be detrimental and may re-enforce the fear. The mind will realise that something 'bad' happened the last time you were in a particular situation, and the longer you leave it before facing the situation again, the more the mind is convinced the same will happen again. This can become a self fulfilling prophecy.

It is better to quickly face the situation again, even if you need to 'dilute' it at first. For example if you had a panic attack in the supermarket, you may wish to initially travel to the supermarket but not even go in. For the next step you may wish to go inside, but not buy anything. Next you may wish to do a small shop, or have a friend to go round with you. After returning from these exposures, notice how you have returned and you are OK - you are still alive and well! Some of you may wish to simply return to the scene and carry on as normal. By challenging your fears you can become more in control, and the attacks should become less and less common.
