Hello and welcome to this week's edition of Adam Up,
For anyone that enjoyed this months first three editions about overcoming unwanted bad habits, we have three new hypnosis audio sessions at a very low introductory price if you'd like to have me hypnotise you and run through those processes.
For the remainder of this month though, we are doing something very different... In fact it is quite unusual to apply self-hypnosis in these ways... To become more alert... In line with this, we are also releasing a new hypnosis for alertness audio which has two brilliant (even if I do say so myself) hypnosis sessions for getting alert, up-beat, inspired, invigorated and refreshed, I think you'll love both the tracks in this new single audio programme for alertness...
This week I have been tired. Not just because I am in the throws of training for my next marathons having recently completed running five consecutive marathons, but also because I have had a slight bug and not been sleeping great, and am incredibly busy with work and all kinds of other things... I am clearly demonstrating Virginia Satir's 'Poor Me' personality category today... The point I want to make is that I could do with a waft of smelling salts under my nose every now and then to get my senses tuned on and up.

Self-Hypnosis To The Rescue For Enhancing Alertness
|
So many people associate hypnosis with "you are feeling sleeeeeepy" and think we always need to be zombied out or in a state resembling a coma when hypnotised. There are lots of people that I encounter who still believe that hypnosis is like being unconscious and that they are blissfully unaware of anything going on within them or around them while they sit having a sort of nap, believing that the hypnotist's words are going in regardless and they'll wake up and ... Hallelujah! Changes will be made. If only it were like that.
Just recently, on my self-hypnosis seminar that I was running in London, I had to do my usual job of asking people to pay attention during the group hypnosis sessions and not just wander off... I spend some time educating about hypnosis and the way to get the most from it, which I think is probably better than me just walking around the room kicking people in the shins if they drift off too far! If you spend a day in a new environment, being hypnotised on and off and learning a lot of information, it can be tiring, especially if you travelled far. So I like to think of ways to keep people alert and invigorated. For instance I tell them about some of our afternoon exercises early in the day which keeps them paying attention.... I tell them that they'll get the chance to experience
localised anaesthesia, full body catalepsy and other things and show pictures from previous seminars... And boy do they pay attention then! However, in life, we can easily stop paying attention and find ourselves wandering and drifting off away with the fairies and do not have a loud mouthed ginger haired hypnotherapist to scare us into alertness! So I thought I'd share some other processes that can be used in conjunction with self-hypnosis to get alert and not actually to finish the self-hypnosis session feeling sleepy and like a zombie!

Use Self-Hypnosis To Get Alert, Focused And Paying Attention.
|
Upcoming this week and next then, are a couple of ways to use self-hypnosis to get alert, focused and paying attention. You do not have to go through any deep structured process for these exercises; simply close your eyes and engage your imagination and use autosuggestion where relevant and they will revive, uplift, and get you invigorated and alert. |

Today's First Session To Get Invigorated Involves You Following These Simple Steps...
|
STEP ONE:
Induce hypnosis...
You can do so by any means you desire or know of.
You can use the process in my self-hypnosis book, use the free audio at this website
to practice or have a look at the following articles as and when you need them; they are basic processes to help you simply open the door of your mind:
Using eye fixation for self-hypnosis:
The Betty Erickson Self-Hypnosis Method video clip:
Using Magnetic Hands for Self-Hypnosis:
Once you have induced hypnosis, move on to step two >>
STEP TWO:
Spend some time imagining that you are running gently and comfortably somewhere outside in nature. Notice the sights of the place, the colours, shades of light and details of your surrounds. Hear the sounds, and feel the feelings that go with being in this place with the scenery to admire, the temperature is perfect for you and enjoy the rhythm of breathing comfortably as you jog and feel yourself developing some liveliness.
Each step that you take as you gently run, tell yourself you are going deeper inside your mind and then move on to the next step of this process.
STEP THREE:
Notice your breathing and tune into it as you continue to imagine being out on your revitalising run.
Imagine your breath is going deeper and that each breath is no invigorating you and imagine that the breath is cool, fresh, stimulating mountain air that really gets your senses tingling.
Once you have noticed the effect that the air is having upon you, enlivening you, then move on to the next step.
STEP FOUR:
As you breathe, still running easily, slowly, gently and comfortably, now exhale quite forcefully and deeply and as you exhale imagine that you are letting go of anything stagnant from within you. Breathe it all out, like you are letting go of the lethargy you used to have.
Breathe in and inhale the gentle, refreshing, cool air in a comfortable, easy manner, then exhale forcefully again and imagine letting go of everything unwanted, like having a good clean out of all that was staid and stagnating and the air you breathe in continues to revitalise you as you continue your gentle, easy run in nature.
Do this forceful exhalation a few more times and once you really notice the difference, that you are notably more alert, then move on to the next step.
STEP FIVE:
Continue running along and then imagine that you suddenly fall into a hole in the pathway. Yikes!
Completely unexpectedly, you just step in, drop in and fall...
Notice how you gasp, how you jolt and how your mind delivers a neat shot of adrenaline...
But that you land very comfortably on a padded area and are beamed back to nature, with your heart beating slightly, enjoyably faster, your senses are tuned in and turned up, paying close attention to everything around you and you are ready to go about your day...
Notice how alert your rather surreal fall made you feel, notice how the initial shock has gone, but you are left remaining truly alert. Now move on to the next step.
STEP SIX:
Count loudly from 1 to 5 inside your mind, with a fanfare that is also loud playing in your mind, to bring yourself up and out of hypnosis. Let the count stimulate and invigorate you.
Stretch out your limbs, shake your hands and feet, open your eyes and notice how much more alert you really are.
There you have it, one quick way to get yourself on track, alert and paying attention. Go about your day revived!
I'll be back next week with more...

Joke of the week:
|
Not really jokes, but I found these very funny when sent in to me this week, thought I'd share this week: Some great ways to annoy people at work... - At lunchtime, sit in your parked car and point a hair dryer at passing cars to see if they slow down.
- Page yourself over the intercom. (Don't disguise your voice.)
- Insist that your e-mail address be xena-goddess-of-fire@companyname.com or elvis-the-king@companyname.com.
- Every time someone asks you to do something, ask if they want fries with that.
-
Encourage your colleagues to join you in a little synchronized chair dancing.
- Put your garbage can on your desk and label it 'IN.'
- Develop an unnatural fear of staplers.
- Put decaf in the coffee maker for 3 weeks. Once everyone has gotten over his or her caffeine addictions, switch to espresso.
- In the memo field of all your checks, write "for sexual favours"
- Reply to everything someone says with, "That's what you think."
- Finish all your sentences with "In accordance with the prophecy."
-
Adjust the tint on your monitor so that the brightness level lights up the entire working area. Insist to others that you like it that way.
- Don't use any punctuation
- As often as possible, skip rather than walk.
- Ask people what sex they are.
- Specify that your drive through order is "to go."
- Find out where your boss shops and buy exactly the same outfits. Wear them one day after your boss does. (This is especially effective if your boss is the opposite gender.)
- Send e-mail to the rest of the company to tell them what you're doing. For example: "If anyone needs me, I'll be in the bathroom."
-
Put mosquito netting around your cubicle.
- Five days in advance tell your co-workers you can't attend the social event because you're not in the mood.
- Pretend your phone is a CB when talking with clients.
I really laughed at that, very funny indeed. Thank you to George Watson for that beauty this week and for all the jokes you people send in, keep them coming and lets keep laughing.

Extra 24 Hours Of Doubled Up Offer:
|
So that you have the chance of buying Adam's New Recordings at our Special Double Benefit Offer I am going to leave the coupon available till tomorrow (Friday 22nd June at midnight) Here is a repeat of the message I sent explaining what is happening and why we are withdrawing Bob's EBook.
************************************** [LETTER SENT EARLIER THIS WEEK] For a few months now we have been giving away to all members on our mailing list an EBook written by our Australian friend Bob Collier called "How To Use Hypnosis Effectively".
AND Some of you clued up people have read our e-mails and realised that the BONUS coupon given at the back of the book works in combination with other offers.
SO FOR EXAMPLE - Currently all the products in our store have a 60% Discount but if you ALSO use in the coupon code in the book you can get a further 50% discount off of what remains. We are practically giving things away!!
THE THING THAT AMAZES ME
- I have been pointing this out week in and week out but I still see many sales going through without taking advantage of this EXTRA bonus offer that is available to all our readers. SEE!... I am on your side! But all good things have to end.
FIRST THE BAD NEWS The reason for writing is to tell you that the EBook is going to be on sale to the general public via Kindle either later this week or early next and when that happens the coupon code will no longer be available.
THE GOOD NEWS
You are not too late but time is short - you have till Thursday 21st June (mid summers day here in the northern hemisphere). I will make things easy by giving you here the coupon code that you would find in Bob's EBook. This is the bit I have now changed - the coupon code will now work till MIDNIGHT ON FRIDAY 22nd JUNE
COUPON CODE - KINDLEBOB BOTTOM LINE Using this code during checkout in our store until this Friday will give you a total of 80% Discount on any number of products.
http://hypnosisfordownload.com Keith Watson PS - If you have any feedback for Bob about his EBook then please do drop us a line and we will pass your remarks on to him.
