- Hello and welcome to this week's edition of Adam Up
So much has happened since the last edition of this ezine.... I was away at half term with my family (in Tenby, I love Wales!), then I was teaching in Cardiff and then had the UK Hypnosis Convention where I was teaching, presenting and hosting a panel, so I have got lots to share....
The latest episode of the Hypnosis weekly podcast has gone live
this week. Episode 98 featured Hazel Gale, former kickboxing champion who went on to become a hypnotherapist and who has a Mind Monster project that she talks about, it is fascinating stuff. If you are not a subscriber, you can listen to it here:
Episode 98 of Hypnosis Weekly -
Featuring Hazel Gale.
Also this week, I have a new video of footage taken from my presentation on stage at the UK Hypnosis Convention. Before I get to that, if you'd like to read my report about the event, go and read all about it and see my pictures, including one explaining why Melissa Tiers referred to me and Nick Ebdon as Beavis and Butthead:
The 2018 UK Hypnosis Convention – My Brief Report.
I've also got a new
article all about helping people to recognise that they matter.
I've got a bunch of other stuff too (including notifications about upcoming events), a fresh evidence based hypnosis meme of the week (one that I am particularly proud of), and a joke or two along the way..... And just as a

New Video: Giving a “Natural High” demo from the stage of the UK hypnosis convention.
|
I have a new video over at the Hypnosis Geek YouTube channel.
Last weekend was the UK Hypnosis
convention and I lectured on the subject of Placebo, nocebo and the relationship with hypnosis, the mechanisms which made these things work and so on. After the theory, I gave a small demonstration that someone in the audience filmed and that I thought I'd share here.
The stage was a bit dark and the quality is not the best. This was a simple process based upon a technique explained in
Assen Alladin's book cognitive behavioural hypnotherapy for depression and the technique is entitled first aid for a bad mood. I combined some elements of it with a fun process that I used to use when I was much younger for fun, using old school rave music and hypnosis to create a natural high.
My aim was to create a measurable natural high and we sure managed
that.
My sincere thanks to my volunteer Eugen Popa and his wife Angela from the Romanian Hypnotherapy Institute for being my volunteer and for videoing the session. Enjoy....
=====Interested in learning self-hypnosis? Want to get proof of your own self-hypnosis skills and create hypnotic phenomena by yourself, for yourself? Don’t know where to start?
Here’s your answer….
I get asked so often by so many people about the best way to learn self-hypnosis and to get some kind of evidence that they are doing it correctly. I usually reply to say that the single best way to know you are
doing self-hypnosis correctly is to give yourself real-life evidence – by creating hypnotic phenomena.
What do I mean by “hypnotic Phenomena”?
This is our effect. The effect that we are going to create. With stage hypnotists, they create effects of people believing they are someone else, for example. With hypnotherapists they create effects of being free of habits, for example. With street hypnotists, they create the effect of someone believing their foot is stuck
to the floor, for example. Within this self-hypnosis roadmap, you are going to create an effect that is going to be undeniably convincing to you that you are using self-hypnosis well.
This roadmap teaches you how to adopt the hypnotic mindset, how to induce self-hypnosis, how to absorb yourself profoundly in self-hypnosis, how to create your own incredible hypnotic phenomena, and then how to exit self-hypnosis and develop your skills with it. I think you are going to love this. To get the
roadmap and guide sent through to your inbox straight away, just visit this page on my college website:
A FREE Self-Hypnosis Roadmap – Learn How To Create Your Own Hypnotic
Phenomena. Go download this, you are going to have a lot of fun with it, believe me. Enjoy engaging with self-hypnosis, most importantly, enjoy creating real-life undeniable hypnotic phenomena for yourself – it's going to blow your mind.
Are You Considering Training To Be A Hypnotherapist?
Then I have something very cool indeed for you.
For anyone considering training in the field of hypnotherapy, looking to train to be a hypnotherapist, I have put together a roadmap; a guide to help you do that. Whether you come and train with me here at this
college or go somewhere else, this roadmap and guide will offer you a real direction of how to identify the best way to train as a hypnotherapist.
Even more importantly though, it contains a HUGE amount of free resources for you to use and learn from. To download it, just visit this page and you’ll be
sent through the Roadmap. For free, with my compliments. I have crammed it full of information, advice, guidance and it includes a mass of free resources that I wished I had been given when I first looked at training to be a hypnotherapist:
This Week's Main Article: How to realise that you matter.
|
You matter. I’m writing this inspired by a client of mine who believed she did not matter and it depressed her.
One of my favourite films ever is due to have it’s annual outing on our TV screens as the festive
season draws closer; It’s a wonderful life. Here is the moment where the central character George Bailey says he wishes he had never been born….
He believed he did not matter. He believed that the world would have been better off without him, and so his guardian angel Clarence, shows him what the world would be like had he never been born. You know this I’m sure, it is a lovely film and offers up a
message that we all matter.
We all have challenges in life, however, remember the key to happiness is how we handle these challenges. An APA psychological bulletin paper that I refer to often suggests that happiness makes you successful rather than success makes you happy. There is usually a message that is given and a lesson to learn from the majority of life’s experiences. The joy is what you will do with the lesson you learn when it arrives and how this gives you a sense of meaning and
a sense that you matter.
Your beliefs, your attitude and how you see things are what matter. Never quit and say it’s not possible. Have hope. Believe better days are ahead. Believe in yourself and trust your decisions. You have a choice on how you feel. You can help yourself to feel that you matter. That’s a central point today….
Before we can convince anyone else that we matter, we must first convince ourselves. You are called upon to acknowledge and put to use the person that you
are, your strengths, resources and abilities. Empower yourself and realise the importance of contributing to the world by living. Mattering is a process, not an event. It has no expiration date; it’s a new way of life. Knowing that we matter is essential to our existence. Here are some thoughts to inspire you when you think your own life doesn’t matter.
How To Know That You Matter. This week, my social media output has been filled with memes about hypnosis, photos from my life (including loads from the UK Hypnosis Convention and other teaching events) 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:

- A group of chess enthusiasts were kicked out of
a hotel reception for discussing their winning games. The manager can't stand chess nuts boasting in an open foyer. Hahahaha, love those..... Thanks to all who continue to send them in to me and tag me online with jokes each week.
