Gratitude

This past year has been financially challenging for many. Not only was I affected, I let it get to me. I started believing in lack and forgot to be grateful for what I did have. So, as much as I resist, I reached out for help. First, I had to set aside my worry about spending the money. That went rather well, probably because I was now a tiny bit desparate.

I spent the first 1/2 hour of my session answering questions and watching (via Skype) my "coach/mentor" ponder my answers. Of course, being me, I wanted the answers to sound as if I was really doing much better than I was. But he called me on it. He was right. I was doing my best not to complain but I wasn't being honest as a result.

One of the exercises that we did was to turn my "What if that horrible thing happens" into "What if that wonderful thing happens." But I'm getting ahead of myself.

We did a simple grounding process first. Now, I've been using grounding for many years but not in quite this way. His method of grounding has really brought me back into my body -- after all, he pointed out, I'll have plenty of time to be out of my body -- and slowed me down. It's interesting to actually live inside my physical body. The first thing I noticed was that I couldn't power walk. I still completed my morning mile -- more slowly-- and with full awareness that my feet were firmly planted on the earth.

Next, I was able to sit down and create a realistic spreadsheet about some financial matters which calmed me down considerably.

My homefun assignment was to keep a gratitude list. Here's how he explained it. If you give someone a gift and they're not very happy to receive it you're much less likely to gift them again. But if your gift is fully appreciated, you want to give again. With that in mind, I am keeping a list of all the things for which I am grateful. Especially the very small things that I have been overlooking.

Every day I ground myself again and add to my gratitude list. And what a surprise. Besides feeling calmer, business is improving. This has been a great reminder for me. Perhaps it will help you as well.

Hypnotherapy Training

My next Level 1 starts July 16, 2011

This is a becoming a new job market. Jobs that people were trained for and performed for years are being replaced by technology and/or sent overseas. Here's some good news in this rather bleak outlook: Hypnotherapy will never be replaced by a machine or sent overseas. It takes heart and compassion. It involves listening one-on-one to another person's story. And with all the changes that are taking place, our services are needed more than ever.

It is a profession that you can continue with regardless of your age. Whether you are interested in adding skills to your current career or would like a new full time or part time career, hypnotherapy is an excellent option.

Through lecture, live demonstrations and supervised in-class practice, you will learn skills that will change your life and the lives of those you help. If you have a sincere desire to help others, this course is for you!
