The Synergy of Abundance

I've read from discussions on Hypnothoughts that hypnotists tend to be a territorial lot when things get to a local level. I've seen some evidence to bear some of this out, particularly when it comes to stage hypnotists. From my own perspective, though, I just don't see things that way. Yes, the most succesful among us are entrepenurial, doing their level best to be "first to market" on search engines, local trade networks, and such. This eagerness to be out there, shouldn't be interpreted as p… Continue

Aspiring Minds Want to Know

According to Hypnothoughts, I'm now an Aspiring Mind, having broken the 500-point threshold. Given that the bulk of my points have come from posting to my blog and discussions, I'm cool with that. Yesterday I did a modified Satir Parts Party with a client. It's been a while since I visited this particular approach to parts work, and things went well. At first I experienced a little uncertainty about "doing it by the book," then I remembered that Satir was less interested in technical details an… Continue

Playing the Game for 60 Minutes

Yes, it's sports metaphor time. Here in Austin, most everybody I know was watching the Fiesta Bowl last night, where the Texas Longhorns met the Ohio State Buckeyes on the field of play. Both teams showed both rust and brilliance, which was unsurprising, given the 30+ days since each team had played an actual game, and the overall level of talent on each team, respectively. What was surprising--thrilling and nerve-wracking, really--was the last 2:05 of the game. With Texas behind at that point… Continue

World Hypnotism Day Wrap-Up

Given the last-minute nature of my WHD event, I'd say it was succesful. I used Lucila Dance, a small-but-comfortable studio in South Austin as the staging ground for this event. I worked with a couple before the actual event start at the studio, with positive results. The day outside was cold and dreary (well, cold for Austin) which may have dampened attendance slightly, but eight were in attendance and left the event very much in good spirits. Other than a general overview of hypnotism, the ty… Continue

More Buzz and RSVPs for my World Hypnotism Day Sessions

I'm stoking the fire as this train heads to the station for Sunday's World Hypnotism Day class. I've gone experimental and put a post on Craigslist, as well as sending this info out to my contact list and a handful of other email lists on which I participate. Here's the announcement I'm using: On Sunday, January 4th, 2009 Celebrate World Hypnotism Day The fourth annual World Hypnotism Day, Sunday, January 4, 2009, gives hypnotists an opportunity to increase awareness and understanding about h… Continue

2009 - Hitting the Ground Running

What happens when you keep your eyes on the prize and follow your bliss? Things start falling in place, and new possibilities start showing up. Cases in point, the following things happened to me yesterday at New Year's Eve gatherings: Party One: The co-hostess of the party is the web designer for my upcoming site relaunch. I've sort of dropped the ball on this project, but through some friendly discussions over a glass of wine and some delegation o… Continue

From his Notes from the Resistance blog at Sinfest Should old school homeys be forgot, And never brought to mind? Should old school homeys be forgot, And days of auld lang syne? We have carved our names on walls And tagged up freeway signs; We've hit up all the mini-malls Since days of auld lang syne. We rocked out to pop radio, Thinking we was fly; We did not know the dilly-o Since days of auld lang syne. So here's a hand, my trusty fr… Continue

Recording Session, Sniffles, and GanMaoLing

Keith Fail and I got together yesterday to work on a project we've had simmering for several months. It's a dual-induction audio on commitment to change, intended to dovetail nicely with a variety of our self-change products and projects. I'm always impressed by the forethought and methodical thinking Keith has placed into making sure his recordings sound professional while recording from home with readily-available Audacity and a quality microphone. Both Keith and I got the sniffles during the… Continue

My Hypnosis Year In Review, Part 3 - Resources

In looking back at the last two blog entries (or the first two, depending on your perspective), there's a noteable absence of many of the books and resources I've read and returned to over the past year as I've continued my growth and education as a coach, hypnotist, and ally in healing. Here, in no particular conscious order is a list of some of these resources I've found helpful, along with some brief comments about them. 1. Changing For Good: A Revolutionary Six-Stage Program for Overcoming… Continue

My Hypnosis Year In Review, Part 2

We left off with June, which brings us to July The second installment of the "Communicating Hypnosis" series involves language patterns and marking out direct communication with the unconscious… Continue

My Hypnosis Year In Review, Part 1

I've got a bit of spare time today, so in the spirit of sharing, reflection, gratitude, and the promise of a new year, I want to jot down the milestones of my year (or, for this post, this first half of the year) in hypnosis and related areas (or at least as many of these as I can consciously recall). For any who care to read this, some items might be a bit cryptic to you, so feel free ask any questions you might have. January I did a group smoking cessation session in tandem with acupu… Continue

That's the problem. When I open my files after you have opened it in OO the formating is removed. Common problem with OO! This is a PDF of my version. This is how it looks in my MS Word 2008

I'm using open office. It should work fine, as every document I've opened with Open Office works fine. Is it something that you made/converted? If so, it opens as read only on my end. I've just tried to fix mine up and I am uploading it and I'm up...

Sorry buddy, I wish I could say it was. It may have changed the formatting when you saved it. Check the document again.

There's a book "Instant Self-Hypnosis" by Forbes Blair. It's not expensive. All about reading to do trance work.
