Who Moved The Cheese Book...
I have read this book a long time ago a university wants me to do a presentation about hypnosis around this book title. Any Suggestions I have a few ideas but I thought if I tossed it out there I can see what you guys might say...

Yes. Hypnosis increases choice.
Recognizing that so often when we appear to be making a choice we are simply running/responding to a mental/phyisical pattern laid down long before. Demonstrate how tough it is to change thee patterns by just making a conscious decision to and how you can change these patterns swiftly with hypnosis and tie this into whatever subject matter they are interested in.
You might want to talk about the values we pin on our patterns of behaviour. Demonstrate how such a value however illusory can still be met while changing the pattern of behaviour.
Ultimately the book is about recognizing you have a choice, breaking free of old patterns and enjoying the detour. I enjoyed it.

Are you talking about Spencer Johnson's book "Who Moved My Cheese?" It was quite popular in the go-go 90s corporate culture (Johnson also co-wrote the One-Minute Manager). The point of the book is to flourish by learning to work with inevitable organizational changes. Unfortunately, the metaphor of rats in a maze is not very empowering or ecological for some people (including myself). Of course, if you're just rolling with the title, there are countless ways you can riff on cheese and, uh, movement...okay, maybe not countless, but imagine how surprised you'll be when you come up with your own twist on this subject as a vehicle for presenting on hypnosis.

It all has to do with state of mind, and how focused, or concentrated we are on what we want, hypnosis is a great way to achieve this for things we want...

Daytime dreaming to me is a form of waking hypnosis and also a way for your unconscious mind to realize those things in life that you want to accomplish... ala NLP. I'm not necessarily talking about daydreaming, but actually settiing aside some time…

Thank you, Paul. I agree wholeheartedly with the need to redirect to JOY. It seems most all hypno paths lead to that desired destination. I love your Christmas Grief idea; I had two calls just yesterday involving that issue as this is the season tha…
