December marks the beginning of whale season in Hawaii. Around this time majestic humpback whales appear in Hawaiian waters, having traversed 3,000 miles of deep blue sea from offshore Alaska. The whales stay through the winter, mating and bearing their young. To watch them cavort is a spectacle for the senses and the heart. Last Valentine’s Day, Michael Fishbach and Gershon Cohen were fishing off the coast of Baja when they encountered a humpback whale tangled in a myriad of fishing nets. … [Read more...]

Prevent heart attacks with hypnosis: A very odd approach

As the hypnotist slowly waved the toothbrush in front of his subject's eyes, he said in a monotone: "Your eyes are getting heavy, droopy and drowsy. And when you awaken, you will realize you want to brush your teeth. In fact, you will have an incredible desire to brush your teeth two to three times a day, because your teeth will be happy and your heart will be healthier." Yes, it's true: clean teeth have been strongly linked to a healthy heart. A large study in Scotland involving almost … [Read more...]

Hypnosis -- most people react to this word with a sense of fear or caution. But since 1958, the American Medical Association has recognized hypnosis as a successful therapeutic tool.

By 1 Comment

Past life regression is one of the most potent ways to connect to the higher, wiser part of yourself in order to resolve issues or move through stuck periods in your life. We become so focused on the worries and stress of life that we rarely connect with the quiet, still witness behind the worries. We become hypnotized into identifying with the continual swirl of thoughts in our mind, rather than on the deep presence that can observe those thoughts. During a past life regression, you become … [Read more...]

Hypnosis – A Safe Place

By Leave a Comment
hypnosis

Earlier today I got a phone call from a friend who is studying hypnosis. Her first class was Saturday. One of the exercises they did was to create a safe place for themselves. Just this morning as I was lying in bed thinking about the day ahead, I was thinking how much I needed a safe place. As we discussed the need for a safe place, my friend told me how important it was as a child to have a safe place. She said that was a big part of her hypnosis lesson, learning to help clients find their … [Read more...]

I recently read in a Pittsburgh Tribune online article about 8-year-old James Leininger, who has been reliving memories of a past life: that of Lt. James McCready Huston, a World War II fighter pilot from Uniontown who was killed near Iwo Jima more than 50 years before James was born. Maybe many of you have heard this story by now, as his story is documented in the book Soul Survivor: The Reincarnation of a World War II Fighter Pilot (2009, Grand Central Publishing). James experienced … [Read more...]

Kriya Yoga for Trance and Transformation

By Leave a Comment
hypnosis

Hypnosis is a mental state defined by slowed brain waves and focused attention with diminished peripheral awareness. The intense and yet relaxed focus brought about by hypnosis serves the purpose of fading the logical mind and opening the door to the subconscious. Since more than 70 percent of our daily behavior is controlled by the subconscious mind, opening the subconscious portal is key to self-transformation and elimination of otherwise unconscious negative beliefs and behaviors. Many … [Read more...]

Hypnosis and the Effect of Emotions

By Leave a Comment
hypnosis

Emotions play a large role in our lives and often govern our actions and reactions. As a general rule, humans prefer to feel good and do things that help them feel that way. When we become frustrated because we are not feeling good, we turn to activities that distract our minds from those less than optimal feelings. For example, I feel sad that my dog died and look to find something that will make me feel better. Well, I feel good when I go shopping, so I go shopping and spend some money. For … [Read more...]
