New Product To Accompany This Weeks Article By Adam
|
|
NOTE BY KEITH WATSON:I am delighted when Adam brings out a hypnosis product that is aimed at helping a niche that is less catered for than other problems. I know this hypnosis session can be used more broadly than overcoming trauma issues - see Adam's write up - but for reason's I am about to explain this one caught my attention.
Many people experience trauma in their lives, such as a serious accident. However some professions such as the military, police, fire brigade, doctors and nurses can experience fairly horrible things on a regular basis. I well remember as a youngster when I was nursing as a junior staff member in an Accident and Emergency department that I witnessed and was involved with a most horrendous situation which could have been straight from a horror movie. I have to say though that it did have a profound and quite long term effect on me - with flashbacks, nightmares etc I nearly gave up that career but luckily I had some wise counseling from a senior member of staff and was able to put it all in perspective and went on to enjoy many years of nursing..
One of the main things that I remember my wise counselor telling me all those years ago was to focus on what I wanted out of life and that would help me move on with less reflection on the bad issues in the past - hmmm interesting. Wish I had know about hypnotherapy then. I do hope that this product will help you by using this elevation (lift) method here to get the lift in life that you are afterThese hypnosis singles are now at an amazingly low (almost given away) price of just £0.97 ($1.55)Check it out at:

Can Be Helpful For Those Suffering From PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) Among Other Things
|
|
Today's self-hypnosis process is one that I was taught for use with particular issues but that I have used in my hypnotherapy consulting rooms for a wide range of other issues with great effect.
In their book Essentials of Clinical Hypnosis: An Evidence Based Approach, Lynn & Kirsch (2006) describe a particular mental imagery technique as a way of helping their therapy clients with PTSD.
In the book, they call it the elevator technique, which is a word that I have never used - here in the UK, we call them lifts! So I have "anglophile'd" the title of this process to make it more agreeable with me.
The elevator technique, as laid out in the afore mentioned book, is explained as a way of generating treatment goals and tasks and priming positive thinking about the benefit of overcoming phobic avoidance of trauma-related situations and coping with flashbacks by way of exposure. (2006: 165)
Today, I have developed and tinkered with this process and made it useable with self-hypnosis. Also to give it more of a generic methodology so it is applicable with a wide range of issues, or to just use as 'ideal future' imagery which is often useful to get inside the mind on a regular basis.
If you have a phobia of going in lifts, this process is not advised until that phobia is no more... Although, there are alternative means of using this type of process, you can get in touch with me for ideas on how to use the principles in a different manner.
However, if you are free of lift phobia's and feel the need to get your life straight, to get your life in order, to feel like you know where you are going and to start taking some progressive action, then this process is one that you are going to love.
Get yourself in a comfortable posture, in a place where you'll be undisturbed for the duration of this exercise, get into a receptive posture with your hands and legs not touching each other, and then we'll get stuck in...

Steps To Use Lift of Life With Self-Hypnosis: |
|
Step Two |
Have a really good think about how you'd like your life to be. Are you hoping to overcome some obstacles in life? DO you wish to achieve a particular outcome with your life? Think about how you wish your life to be and with that in mind, move on to the next step...
|
Step Three |
The aim of this process is to gives you the opportunity to recreate a vision of your life, and construct your life from the foundation upwards.So engage your imagination and find yourself in a basement, the basement level of your life. Enjoy the sights, the sounds and really be there. Connect with yourself and be facing the doors of a lift. Notice what they are made of, what colour they are, how loud they are and then press the button to call the lift. Notice the sounds of movement, any lights that go on, any indicators that tell you it is on it's way.
As you hear the sounds, see the sights, enjoy the feelings of anticipation, all the time let it all take you deeper inside your mind.When the lift arrives, watch the doors open, step inside, familiarise yourself with the interior of the lift, press the button for the first floor watch the doors close and then move on to the next step...
|
Step Four |
Imagine the movement, and imagine travelling upwards.When the lift reaches the first floor, the doors open and you step out onto the first floor of your life.Start to think about and consider how you wish your life to be, as you thought about it in step two.Here, on the first floor, start to get a strong sense of the first thing you need to do that is going to make that happen. What foundations need to be in place for that outcome to occur?
There in front of you, on this first floor, as you think of the first steps towards that outcome, start to let images of those steps be formed here on this level. Perhaps there are images of actions you need to take... Perhaps you have a heightened awareness of decisions that you need to make, conversations you may need to have, or even resources/strengths/skills that you need to muster up, or even information that you need to learn.Perhaps you need to think about your basic behaviours and/or thoughts that you need to have at your foundation in order to make your outcome possible... Let all of those first things, those initial steps be here at this level, played out in front of you on the first floor.
When you have developed a good strong sense of what actions you need to take, take a few moments to play them out in front of you on this floor. See yourself doing those things, acquiring that knowledge, having that conversation, completing that task, making that decision, or whatever it is that you know is the first important step in constructing your life as you wish it to be.Only when you see this played out in front of you and are satisfied with this first step at this first level, then press the button on the lift again and step inside, press the button for the second floor and move on to the next step...
|
Step Five |
Imagine the lift moving you upwards and onwards as you now progress to the second floor.When the doors open, step out on to this level and start to consider and examine the next stage in your life construction. That is, what is the second steps that you need to take, what actions, thoughts, behaviours, connections need to be undertaken now?What people do you need to connect with, what decisions need to be made, what skills or information needs to be learnt?
Consider all of this next stage, imagine it having successfully happened and how that will look and feel and play it all out in front of you on this second floor. Be sure to make it vivid and engage with it as much as possible.Look at what you need to do to continue progressing and improving towards your outcomes. Create the scene in front of you in as much detail as you can, being as thorough and diligent as possible and when it is all set and vivid and created, then press the button on the lift, step in and press the button for the next floor.
|
Step Six |
Continue to repeat step five until you feel that you have really organised all the various levels and set up all the floors of your development and for the future of your ife as you wish it to be.When you have gone through all the stages and steps to your satisfaction, then call the lift again, and press the button for the roof level and move on to the next step.
|
Step Seven |
As you arrive at the top, the roof, step out and enjoy the full landscape of your entire life as you wish it to be. Designed, created and thoroughly constructed from the bottom upwards.Feel how safe and secure you feel up here in the knowledge that all the levels beneath you have been developed and built diligently. Accept and absorb the scene and the sense of enjoyment you get being here.Spend some time relaxing and enjoying being on top of your life and when you feel assured and confident in your plan from here, then move on to the final step.
|
Step Eight |
Take a couple of good deep, energising breaths, wiggle your fingers and toes and open your eyes to bring this session to an end.Once it has come to an end, go and start taking those actions and engaging in your plan and life design.Enjoy that, it is a lovely process.

How To Use Hypnosis Effectively
|
|
Our Australian friend Bob Collier explains his reason for writing this beginners guide to using hypnosis effectively which is available from Amazon for the Kindle:-"I've been fascinated by 'personal development' and 'self-improvement' for more than thirty years and if you knew me thirty years ago and met me now it would be obvious to you that I've had good results from my interest.
I'm not a hypnotist or a hypnotherapist. I don't produce hypnosis MP3s and I don't supply them. I'm a satisfied customer. This gives me a unique perspective. My guide to understanding and maximizing the benefits of hypnosis MP3s is the product of years of interest in hypnosis as an 'end user', including research and trialing downloadable hypnosis recordings and programs from more than forty different hypnotists and hypnotherapists. This book is now available for the Kindle at http://www.amazon.co.uk/How-Use-Hypnosis-Effectively-ebook/dp/B009CDW46O

HELEN JOHNSTONE - HAMPSHIRE "I attended the 10 month course which ran from October 2011- July 2012. The course is interesting, fun, fast paced, encouraging, confidence building, skill packing and very professionally run by Adam and his team. Realistically, it required a lot of committment in time and effort, which in reality was easy to give with the knowledge and new zest for learning that Adam's enthusiasm brings.
Adam and his team were of constant support to me throughout the course and I feel lucky to be able to consider them to be good friends and confidantes now. I have qualified and feel confident that the knowledge,confidence, skills and practical experience I have gained during this course will serve me very well in practice"..

GEORGE WATSON - GLENROTHES, FIFE, SCOTLAND "I booked up to Adam Eason School of Therapeutic Hypnosis in 2010, and I really did not know what to expect, I was very interested in Hypnosis, but what is taught throughout the diploma course is by far the best around. Adam's very unique style is very uplifting and thorough and I leave his school with much more knowledge and well trained in clinical hypnotherapy. If you want trained to the high standard that Therapeutic Hypnotherapy should attain then look no further than Adam's School"
