Blossoming Mind-Shari Gordon

I remember when I was inquiring about hypnotherapy and how afraid I was of hypnosis. I feared it as mind control. My teacher said to me "all hypnosis is self-hypnosis". When you think about your thoughts, think about that. If it's true, would you want those things to come true? Do you have a story you are attached to that you keep repeating? What if you let go of that old story, who are you really?

One of the areas I help my clients with is grief. I've worked with people who have lost a person or pet. I just finished a client session with someone who lost her beloved dog, one of the hardest things a person can go through. It was hard, but at the end of the session she felt lighter, a little relief. There are many forms of grief. It could be grieving the loss of a relationship, a lifestyle, a tragedy. I know it well after having lost both of my cats of 17 years. There is no right or wrong way to do this, honor your process.

We just have this one moment. The past is gone, the future isn't here. Just right now. Life is created by now moments. Be here now. The breath can help get you get centered. It feels so good to come back to center.

Before I studied hypnotherapy, I feared hypnosis as mind control. I talked to my teacher and she said "all hypnosis is self hypnosis". I knew how powerful the mind is, but yet I still thought negative things. I believe we are all in training learning how to use the power of our minds. But it's not just about the mind. It's about integrating the mind and heart. Energy follows thought, what you focus on expands. Sometimes my thinkin is a stinkin. I believe things to be true, but that doesn't mean they are. Let's call them limiting beliefs. It's a good practice to question your thoughts, your beliefs. Byron Katie has a great practice in helping to question our thoughts, The Work. When we change our perception everything changes. I've actually found hypnotherapy (counseling with hypnosis) to be very empowering and actually a way of helping me to get to my inner knowing.

I was listening to Tony Robbins the other day and this statement struck me. "You Get What You Tolerate In Yourself". I've been pondering on it. What am I tolerating in myself? If I want changes in my life, what am I tolerating in myself that is not moving me forward or toward my goals? Are my actions in alignment with my values? It's a good exercise to get really clear. And you? What are you tolerating in yourself? Ponder...

Relationships are like bank accounts, the more deposits you make the better your relationships. Make sure you have more deposits than withdrawals. Compliments vs. criticisms. Focus on what you appreciate and make sure to do this with yourself too.

Words matter. If you find yourself saying or thinking that you can't do something. Try switching it around. Every time you think you can't, say I choose not to. You just may start thinking different about things. I can't eat that, I choose not to eat that. "Choose" is empowering "can't" implies you have no choice.

Worked with a client today who reminded me we have been working together for twelve years, on and off. He first came to quit smoking and then on again off again to work through stuff. This past October he reached out to help him quit drinking since he had so much success in quitting smoking. I'm so grateful when I get the opportunity to help someone break through. He said how his life is so much better without alcohol. He is such a self aware person, I told him it was like his future self is sitting right in front of me, such an amazing transformation. He's truly remarkable!
