- Hello and welcome to this week's edition of Adam Up
This week's edition of Adam Up is one I am really excited about....
In this week's edition of this ezine, I'm talking about how to break rules, and I'm also recommending you break the rules. It is one for the rebels, but also visionaries and those
who seriously need to shake off the shackles of the unwritten rules in their life.
I'm also sharing a couple of videos - one is of a demonstration I gave in class last weekend whereby hypnosis was used to create anaesthesia and I placed a pin directly through the hand of one of my students - funnily enough, that was not even the most impressive part of the demo as far as I was concerned. I'm also sharing a video of a webinar I ran a little while ago about an essential guide to becoming a
successful hypnotherapist.
And just as a reminder, you are receiving this email because you signed up for this ezine, downloaded a course prospectus or attended a course at some point in time. If you no longer wish to receive this weekly hypnosis and personal development ezine, you may unsubscribe by clicking the link at the foot of this email. I only want you to receive it each week if you find it of value and you actually read it. Also, we
delete you from our distribution if you have not opened these emails for a while.
Ok, let's get on with it, shall we?
New Video: Hypnotic Anaesthesia
|
I mentioned above that I was sharing a video or a hypnotic anaesthesia demonstration I conducted in my class last week. A colleague of mine recorded it on her phone,
and I wanted to share it and also give some commentary upon it. So it became a blog entry on the college website.
The anaesthesia itself was incredible because Kim's hand (Kim is the student featured) was icy cold to the touch following suggestions for it to happen - I encounter this often and I get others in class to test it and feel it for themselves too. The needle went through her hand, but then Kim responded to the suggestsions for increased healing in phenomenal fashion - something
that was just amazing to behold.
I took photos in addition to the film footage to give you a sense of what it was like, visit this page of the college blog to read about the demonstration, see the video footage of it, and also to see some of the photos:

====== I do this demonstration on both of my one day seminars in differing ways......
I mentioned it in previous editions of this ezine, I am going to be on tour a bit this year. I am coming North to Hull. I am going East to Norwich. I am going west to Cardiff. I am going to the midlands in Birmingham and I'll be in London though the upcoming one day seminars here in Bournemouth in March are now completely full to capacity and sold out. Wherever you are based in the UK though,
I hope you'll be able to access my seminars this year.My rapid inductions and hypnotic phenomena for hypnotherapists seminar is coming to all these venues, and so is my science of self-hypnosis seminar. Many of the dates are at weekends, so there's no excuse. Each is less than £100.00 to attend (plus Vat) and you can read about the course, grab all the dates, details about course content and more by
downloading a free prospectus at these two pages on my website, come and join me in your neck of the woods:
New Video: Essential Guide to Becoming a Successful Hypnotherapist
|
In recent weeks I have been running a very popular webinar for people that are interested in training to be a hypnotherapist.
It includes some in depth information about how and why to adhere to
evidence-based approaches and to get a braod ranging education, then it also goes on to talk in detail about the value of learning how to astonish people and gves instruction on a number of ways to do that, and it also gives some direct business advice about to effectively get up and running by the time you complete your course of study.
I have also enclosed a couple of the most important handouts I have ever put together for all those who watch (they are worth their weight in gold, I
assure you) and offer a couple of free audios.... Importantly, it contains some genuinely useful information for you to be aware of right at the beginning of your journey into the field of hypnotherapy, so go and have a read and a view of the recording that I have made available and public for a limited time. If you are thinking of training to become a hypnotherapist then go and watch this video or if anyone you know is considering it, please forward them on the link:
The Essential Guide to Becoming a Successful Hypnotherapist.
Onto This Week's Main Theme: Why I'm Recommending You Break The Rules!
|
Break the rules! That’s right, go grab the rulebook by which you are leading your
life, tear it in half (as long as it is no thicker than a telephone directory) and cast it out of the window! Today, you have permission to become a rebel in your own life….
“Remember: Life is short, break the rules.” – James Dean.
Much of what I’m writing here today is with a
sense of fun, humour and is light-hearted, yet the underlying message is one I am incredibly serious about, I’ll explain…
Have you ever heard of the term “social construct”? Put simply, it is a set of “rules” that have been set and defined consciously or not that are held by members of a society, culture, subculture, team, organisation, or social group etc. that has shared assumptions about reality
(their reality). Or basically, whether or not we consciously agree, we have agreed to things…. sometimes we even follow these social constructs when we disagree with them at some level! What’s more, even when proven to be false we still sometimes follow these (mostly unwritten) rules. There are many of these so-called “rules” that we live our lives by and that can have a detrimental effect upon our life, our happiness and the satisfaction we derive from
life.
It can be problematic or risky to state openly that your life or career has consisted of breaking rules, especially without context. Law-breaking or acts that are immoral or unethical are not what is being championed here. I’m writing about breaking the unwritten rules by which we lead our lives and many of which are holding us back from leading the life we want. Making important decisions in
life aren’t always easy. Sometimes, you get a limited amount of time to make a decision. All you can do is read and assess the situation then try to reduce whatever risks you can on the fly. Breaking rules can be risky, but the rewards of breaking the rules well can be great and ultimately very rewarding.
“The trading rules I live by are: 1. Cut losses. 2. Ride winners. 3. Keep bets small. 4.
Follow the rules without question. 5. Know when to break the rules.” – Ed Seykota.
In life it’s often the same – you can follow the guidelines that help you play it safe while you tread water in certain areas of your life or you can take a risk, potentially make a mess, but be better off for trying and enriched by the experience. If you choose to take the risk, you do your best
to make it a success that pays off.
Here is the full article that offers up and number of important reasons I recommend you break some of the rules by which you are living your life, and how to go about it:
Why I Recommend You Break the Rules.
Additionally....
When you are being true to yourself, breaking rules imposed upon you is liberating and incredibly healthy. I have often championed the notion of individuality throughout my work, and I recommend you go and read this article I wrote quite recently on the subject:
Why and How To
Express Your Individuality and Uniqueness.
This week, my social media output has been filled with memes about hypnosis, photos from my running schedule (including me running my Wilma - our family cockapoo, who has a new canicross set) and loads of articles
from our vaults (including some really controversial ones from the past few years!!) and some other bits and pieces.
You can follow and keep up to date here:
Additionally, if you are a student, graduate or friend of my college, then come & join our Facebook group for hypnotherapists, it has some wonderful discussion on there:
I'm completely booked up with regards to being able to take on any new clients for hypnotherapy, mentoring or coaching currently, so have removed those links from Adam Up for a few weeks.
For
those of you interested in finding out a bit more about working or studying with me, here are the pages to go and do that:
Would you like a satisfying and meaningful career as a hypnotherapist helping others?
Are you a hypnotherapist looking for stimulating and career enhancing continued professional development and advanced studies?
We have a range of classroom based and home study courses offering the most comprehensive and highest quality education in the hypnotherapy and hypnosis fields:
If you are a hypnotherapist, then I highly recommend the investment of 10 minutes of your time to read these articles, they are ram-packed full of useful
information even if you do not choose to study with me, they’ll benefit you greatly:
I've been in the lab recently conducting experiments as part of my current research, and a colleague passed this on to me, and considering we were talking about breaking the rules today, I thought I'd share this.....
Rules of the lab
1) If an experiment works, something has gone wrong. 2) When you don't know what you're doing, do it neatly. 3) Experiments must be reproduceable, they should fail the same way each time. 4) First draw your curves, then plot your data. 5) Experience is directly proportional to equipment ruined. 6) Always keep a record of your data. It indicates that you have been working. 7) To do a lab really well, have your report
done well in advance. 8) If you can't get the answer in the usual manner, start at the answer and derive the question. 9) In case of doubt, make it sound convincing. 10) Do not believe in miracles--rely on them. 11) Team work is essential, it allows you to blame someone else. 12) All unmarked beakers contain fast-acting, extremely toxic poisons. 13) No experiment is a complete failure. At least it can serve as a negative example. 14) Any delicate and expensive piece of
glassware will break before any use can be made of it.
Hahahahaha, love those. Thanks to all who continue to send them in to me and tag me online with jokes each week.
