Wow, Michael. Thank you for taking the time to write all that out. Really great insights, resources and ideas.
A fervent admirer and appreciator,
Susan
Hi Donna,
The folks at UncommonKnowledge.com have a course on the Rewind Technique for PTSD and phobia that's really interesting. They also go into the brain science involved.

Also Henxy. She works at the NHS in the UK doing nothing but IBS.
Totally, completely and 1000% agreed.

John,
I like the way you talk to the parts directly. It seems much simpler.
I really like the idea of parts therapy but I've never found a "format" that has felt comfortable to me. It has too often felt "fake" or "artificial" or "forced." This m...
Michael,
What a great way to introduce the somewhat metaphysical/spiritual idea of "where the attention goes, so goes the energy" which I've always had a little trouble explaining to people. Thanks.
Also, I love your introduction-induction. Gent...
Hmmm Henxy. Typed communication certainly lacks vocal intonation but do I correctly sense your comment to be dripping with sarcasm....lol???
Miss you girl. Let's talk (on an actual telephone) soon...maybe over our Thanksgiving weekend...this week...
Yes, Conrad, I believe you become what you hate as well as what you love. But it sounds like you're clinging to the idea that I spew hatred when I fact I simply spit and froth sometimes...and as Michael suggested, allowing myself to come back to n...

Ten Ways to Quit Smoking: some wonderful motivating ideas for your clients from Theresa Borchard's Beyond Blue Blog
Smoking may be one of the most common bad habits, but it's also one of the hardest addictions to crack. You probably want to quit smoking, but there are a ton of obstacles in your way.

Five Ways to Manage Panic Attacks and Quote of the Day
Quote of the Day
"If the human brain were so simple that we could understand it, we would
be so simple that we couldn't." --Lyall Watson
PANIC ATTACKS
Panic attacks are generally brief, lasting less than ten minutes. Symptoms may persist for a longer time. A panic attack is a sudden episode of intense fear that develops for no apparent reason and that triggers severe physical reactions.
Symptoms of panic attacks include: sweating, shaking, rapid heartbeat, rapid pulse, sweaty palms, hyperven… Continue

Mark Tyrrell said… - I've just been reading “the dove" and maybe I'm obtuse but the lines of argument all seem very confused-sprinkled with impressive levels of self righteousness. As far as I can make out people are talking about 'claimed sensitivity as weapon' and whether we choose to be hurt or not. Am I right?
All the very best

- Hi Susan
I hope you're well and thanks for your kind comments. I'd just like to say (at this risk of sounding like an attendee at a mutual admiration society meet) that I find your comments informed, intelligent and infused with obvious humanity : )

Stephanie Voss said… - Susan, hi. I'm still new here and wanted to invite you to be a friend, but missed that button and have someone coming in a few moments. Just wanted to add that I saw your discussion about when "it" doesn't work and jumped in halfway -- it got a little out of hand, but I hope my comment was helpful. I also love reading and want to make sure you've seen Havens & Walters, Hypnotherapy Scripts, 2002, an Ericksonian Approach. Not only are their scripts so good I see them often used by others without attribution (of course, I don't know for sure who used them first), but he's got a great chapter on how to write your own.
Cheers,
Stephanie

Conrad Cook said… - Susan,
While I appreciate compliments from time to time, and indeed I'm a pretty cool guy, I'm not really my own favorite topic of conversation. Let's all just appreciate my transcendent coolness quietly, ok?
Conrad.

Steph said… - Stream of thought ... following on from Albert Ellis' idea that we often undervalue the positive ... a metaphor/visualisation based on Homeopathic Carbon (Graphites). I'll try to weave in a theme of self-worth, the essence of Graphites. (This is written on the fly ... just ideas!)
As you know, carbon is the element of life, it is found in all living things, there would be no life without carbon, but the feeling of the carbon atom, and the carbon patient, is that she is small, plain, humble, and insignificant in a vast universe. As you relax, imagine you are a tiny mote of carbon, floating in the vastness of space, remember that you have the power to join with other carbons to form chains of molcules that form the basis of life on earth, there is nothing plain or ordinary about carbon ... it is the staff of life, and its softness is the source of all goodness ... giving meaning and value to life on earth, gently bringing comfort and warmth to the home, dignity to the family ... to all around her ...

I really enjoy all of your contributions to the discussions. I tried e-mailing you as you suggested for your "sleep" script, but it came back to me as wrong address. Could you email me at

Thanks Roy,
That is a very useful distinction.
I think I take more of a role of facilitator,
which is again slightly different than either an arbitator, or a mediator
