Addiction Recovery using Hypnosis
The theme for this month is addiction. The clients who have responded with great success this month have a basic theme presenting of having been influenced in childhood by addiction within the family. Also, remember the radio commercial a child wrote from the heart and made with Dr. Martin last month? If you don’t remember or didn’t get back to hear it after it got placed on-line, the link is being again put into this update. Click this link to Patrick's Story and listen.
Because it came from a teenager’s heart, I believe it reverberated to the past of many who needed to heal the old programming which went into their subconscious minds from having been exposed to the addiction program within their home growing up and many called to make an appointment and have been very successful. Other than the basic premise of addiction, the dynamics of the clients differ:
There was no majority when considering gender. Both males and females came. The levels of financial and educational achievement were varied. The specific symptoms were also different. They were all adults rather than teenagers. They recognized something, however, in the message of the teenager speaking.
All who came for the releasing of symptoms and causes achieved success. Several have already had at least two sessions and felt a change in their circumstance for the better. To show you the broad range:
One man was back home living in an apartment his parents own after having achieved financial success and through his own gambling addiction had lost businesses. He has already stopped the craving for excitement and has done no gambling since starting his sessions. Another man who has an Ivy League education, has stopped panic attacks which were debilitating. His wife called to speak to Dr. Martin and said his relief of symptoms literally moved her to tears of joy. She has booked a session to work on grief for herself. Many clients have booked sessions to work on weight with one client recognizing her tendency towards co-dependency causing not only the weight gain, the holding of weight, but also physical symptoms. Others have come to stop smoking with the desire to reclaim more health and vitality.
The message of a child reverberated to their subconscious program and their own desire to be free of pain whether physical or emotional. The link of all these people was the experience of getting entangled in the web of addiction through encounter with the addiction programming either through family, self-experience, or a traumatic event/events literally keeping the program of fear with fear roles playing itself over and over in their lives.
One of the clients who came for assistance this month had multiple addictions and the sessions have been adjunctive to the much needed twelve step program he is using for social support. The sessions have added stability to his goal of maintaining sobriety . He has had a successful month.
Several months ago his life was very similar to this link that you can experience vicariously. Click this link JohnnyCash's Sunday Moning to view and listen
Several read Pat Rickard’s story in last month’s update and went to the weight loss stories to read about where she started in her 100 lbs of weight lost. Many are now experiencing a healthier relationship with food which is leading them to their ideal weight loss. Several returned for jumpstart sessions with 18, 20, 30 lbs lost before they felt an hour session would get them highly motivated again.
We also had an email from a former student who is now very close to retiring from her job. This brought back memory of some of the obstacles which were placed in her path. She is now reaching her retirement with a high motivation to really experience health and vitality for the rest of her life. She has twenty years of sobriety now (time flies).
At one point, our former student who emailed us recently was worried about being able to continue her supervisory role in law enforcement because of problems with her feet. She overcame those problems by using hypnosis to supplement traditional medicine and breezed through surgery with post-surgery treatment to continue on several more years in her job.
She worked on self love to overcome grief from an ended relationship which was a long term relationship. It was an addictive relationship and she played codependent. Her subconscious helped her release the need for excitement in that relationship and move to a more balanced way of living.
She lost lots of weight before and regained youth and good looks with another hypnotist in Texas. He recommended she prepare herself for a joyful retirement and she came to study with us several years ago. She emailed that she is working on herself with in-home CD’s and ordered some more.
We wish her the best and know that the best future is hers with her retirement on the horizon.
Test your chemistry for Addiction probability
An interesting website about addiction is healthrecovery.com. On the website is a 24 minute video where she explains how to rebuild the central nervous system for alchoholics with natural supplements and then assist with the traditional medical model of treatment. Joan Matthew Larsem, Ph.D. is the innovator who developed that successful treatment program with a success rate of approximately 75 per cent. After losing her teenage son to suicide because of alcohol addiction depression, She was spurred to develop her treatment program which has been successful for close to thirty years.
On this website, under the difference between drinkers link is a self administered test where you can discover your own alcoholic body chemistry. If you are an allergic alchoholic chemistry, then you need to steer clear of alcohol completely. You can take the test to see if you have the body chemistry which has a high probability of becoming alcohol addicted.
Addiction is like playing Russian Roulette and she is an example of the benefits of how taking action with hypnosis to release the program of addiction on the subconscious level can change your life.
Weight Loss with Hypnosis is overcoming addiction
Another friend sent a wonderful email giving some startling statistics on some very popular food. Clients will come and say: “I splurge every now and then.” Many of the foods they name are on this list. The colorful pictures with statistics is worth viewing. It will certainly break denial about the splurge being harmless . Click this link "Truth about your favorite foods" to view the pictures and information. It is quite an eye opener and very worth viewing. Thanks to our friend for taking the time to send this email. The pictures with statistics speak volumes and will probably stop many of the splurges.
One of the obstacles found when people commit to letting go of weight is the sabotage they can encounter from co-workers, family, commercials, etc. Some of the sabotage can be below the consciousness of the saboteur or can be planned sabotage because the person doing the sabotage feels threatened or even jealous of the new lifestyle the person choosing to let go of weight is choosing. We received a funny video showing was was titled The Evil Eye.
It is again a child bringing up good emotion with laughter. It is a powerful metaphor of reminder. When people are trying to let go of weight from a strictly conscious level it is often hard to stand under the influence of sabotage. People come in with stories of others bringing in very wonderful smelling food to sabotage them. Others will do all kinds of things to bring them back to the weight with the sabotage doing just that: sabotaging the effort. During our year of weight loss, Kirstie Alley started the same month with a weight loss program losing 72 lbs in the same time frame as our group. Several in our group lost more than she did during that same time frame. The media is now saying she has “fallen off the wagon” and has put back on all the weight. If she could be interviewed, her reasons might include a saboteur or saboteurs in her world. The subconscious program of motivation, determination, self love, and the ability to set boundaries with others becomes automatic when the subconscious receives this program through hypnosis. The programming can come through private sessions or through in-home CDs for weight loss. Having the program on the subconscious level makes saboteurs really have to work to sabotage a motivated person.
Using Hypnosis to Prepare for Surgery
We also received a copy of a published magazine article one of our students wrote and got published in Explore, The Journal of Science and Healing. It is Vol. 3. No 6 of the magazine and has a wonderful cover with an enumeration of other interesting articles. Ute Carson is an accomplished writer with a wonderful website you need to view. This particular article was about her preparing herself for surgery with positive suggestion hypnosis. She used self-hypnosis for the anesthesia with wonderful success and had prepared for a good prognosis with other alternatives. The reason for the surgery was a dark spot on an ovary. Not only did she go through the surgery with no problems, but she recovered very quickly from the
Process and the best news was: the spot turned out to be benign. Please view her wonderful website at www.utecarson.com. Ute has done much to educate medical students and practicing physicians about the wonders of hypnosis at the Texas Medical Center in Galveston, Texas, where she teaches at grand rounds and assists with pain control. Her husband is pivotal to the medical field with his ethics practice at the medical center. Ute has been awarded for her wonderful writing skills and you can view her talent on her website.
Positive suggestion hypnosis is very powerful in its ability to assist with health, happiness, and well-being. Start your program of private sessions of in-home sessions so that you can:
Have a wonder-filled life!
