Good tips to come back into your body!

We see what we wanna see. We become what we repeatedly think and do. Be mindful of your own filters and how you 'think' about yourself...

In 1973, eight perfectly healthy people walked into psychiatric hospitals across the United States.
None of them were ill.
No one inside realized it. 🧠
This was not an accident.
It was an experiment designed by psychologist David Rosenhan to answer a disturbing question.
Can professionals reliably tell the difference between mental health and mental illness?
To find out, Rosenhan recruited eight ordinary people. A painter. A housewife. A pediatrician. A graduate student.
They lied about only one thing. They said they heard voices. Just three words. “Empty.” “Hollow.” “Thud.”
That was enough.
All eight were admitted.
The moment they entered the hospitals, they stopped pretending. They behaved normally. They cooperated. They asked to be discharged. 🚪
It never worked.
Every normal action was reinterpreted as a symptom.
Writing notes became obsessive behavior.
Waiting quietly became pathological attention seeking.
Politeness became controlled behavior consistent with illness.
Seven were diagnosed with schizophrenia.
One with manic depression.
Not a single staff member identified them as healthy.
But the patients did.
Real patients approached them and whispered, “You’re not like the others. You don’t belong here.”
Those considered ill saw what trained professionals could not.
The average stay was 19 days.
One person remained hospitalized for 52 days. ⏳
Each day reinforced the same truth. Once labeled, reality stopped mattering.
When Rosenhan published On Being Sane in Insane Places, the psychiatric world erupted. One hospital challenged him to send new pseudopatients, confident they would catch them.
Rosenhan agreed.
Over the next months, that hospital identified 41 supposed impostors.
Rosenhan had sent no one. Not a single person.
The conclusion was unavoidable.
Diagnosis was not always based on facts. It was shaped by context and expectation.
This experiment shattered blind trust in clinical labels and forced major changes in how mental illness is diagnosed and treated. But its deeper lesson still unsettles today.
Perception can distort reality more than madness itself.
And sometimes, the most dangerous illusion belongs to those who believe they cannot be wrong.

"Recently I was going through a very stressful time and noticed a sign on Victoria Ave for Inspired Hypnosis. I decided to see if it might help. I rang and made an appointment with Azian Zulkifli.

Azian was wonderful—so insightful, calm, understanding, and such a good listener. She really helped me make sense of what I was struggling with.

I've already recommended her to a friend, who also found Azian's support incredibly helpful. I have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone going through a tough time." 💛

✨ Be proud of how far you’ve come. ✨

Every step you’ve taken, every challenge you’ve faced, and every little victory along the way has shaped the person you are today.
Growth isn’t about being perfect—it’s about progress, learning, and becoming more of who you’re meant to be.

Maybe you’re celebrating big milestones, or maybe you’re just proud of getting through a tough day. Either way, it all counts. 💛

Life is a journey, not a checklist. Mistakes happen, detours come up, and sometimes the path forward isn’t clear—but none of that erases how far you’ve already come.
So take a deep breath, acknowledge your progress, and keep going at your own pace. You’re doing better than you think. 💫

And if you feel like you need a bit of help with your journey, feel free to reach out to us, anytime 🥰

The mind is fascinating! Pm me if you want to learn how to use your subconscious mind to your advantage!!

What is the conscious mind?

The conscious mind can generate great wishes and desires. However, our life’s actions are derived from the programmed subconscious mind that controls behavior 95% of the day. To put an intention into practice first requires the rewriting of limiting subconscious programs. The most important life influencing programs are the beliefs that we acquired first. This generates a problem in creating resolutions because we are generally unaware of the programs that control our behavior.

The reason is that the most influential life-shaping programs were downloaded before we were conscious. We are not conscious of programs downloaded before birth and almost all of us have no awareness of the programs we acquired between 0 and age 2. The good news is that the subconscious programs provide for 95% of our lives, consequently, our lives are printouts of our subconscious programs.

The things that we like that come into our lives are there because we have programs to support them. However, the wishes and desires that we seek and find ourselves working hard to achieve and are putting a lot of effort into or sweating over to manifest, represent disempowering, limiting or self-sabotaging subconscious programs.

Before we can manifest our intentions to create a better life, we must first rewrite limiting programs. There are 3 ways to change dysfunctional subconscious behaviors:

1) Self-hypnosis;
2) Create a new habit though practice and repetition; and,
3) Engage energy psychology (over 25 energy psychology modalities are provided in my website, under Resources).
