Is Hypnotherapy the Answer? – An Introduction to Hypnotherapy.

You may have been recommended hypnotherapy in the past for many different reasons, yet you wouldn’t be blamed for turning it down due to a lack of knowledge on the subject. So what exactly is hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy is a complementary therapy that takes advantage of an altered state of consciousness, or hypnosis. Hypnosis is promoted as a treatment for many different long-term conditions, as well as for stopping certain habits. While hypnotherapy is readily utilized and praised for its effects, there is still no strong evidence to support its use as a treatment for certain specific conditions.

Run Your Own Race

If I had to pick one rule or principle to live by for the rest of my life, it would be to run my own race. There are constant outside expectations and external distractions in life. We are burdened by expectations and opinions of our friends, family, bosses, co-workers, and society – images we see on tv, in movies, and in ads. With the countless outside voices that infiltrate our minds, it’s hard to differentiate between what we truly want and what we’re chasing to please or keep up with others.

It’s a Matter of Trust

Does anyone recall exactly when we grew up?  I’m guessing not, since it was probably gradual.  We can count our blessings for that.
So not when, but how?  How did we “grow up?”  How did we go from carefree youths, who could make a fun game out of any boring situation, to low-energy adults who need Netflix to escape every night?  What happened?  What’s the matter?
Trust is the matter.  We stopped trusting in life.

The Fence: A story with a great moral.....

There once was a young boy with a very bad temper. 
The boy's father wanted to teach him a lesson, so he gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper he must hammer a nail into their wooden fence.
On the first day of this lesson, the little boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. He was really mad!
Over the course of the next few weeks, the little boy began to control his temper, so the number of nails that were hammered into the fence dramatically decreased.

Just Who Do You Think You Are, Anyway?

“Just Who do you think you are, anyway?” This may be a phrase you have heard hurled at you in anger or one that you have hurled at someone else. Putting the anger aside, it’s a great question. Who are you? Who do you think you are?
We generally identify ourselves according to what we do.

Words of Wisdom from Bill Gates. (A must read)


A quote from ~ Bill Gates ~

Love him or hate him , he sure hits the nail on the head with this!
Bill Gates recently gave a speech at a High School about eleven things they did not and will not learn in school. He talks about how feel-good, politically correct teachings created a generation of kids with no concept of reality and how this concept set them up for failure in the real world.

Lets run through the rain.


A little girl had been shopping with her Mom in Wal-Mart. She must have been 6 years old, this beautiful red haired, freckle faced image of innocence.

It was pouring outside. The kind of rain that gushes over the top of rain gutters, so much in a hurry to hit the earth it has no time to flow down the spout.. We all stood there, under the awning, just inside the door of the Wal-Mart. We waited, some patiently, others irritated because nature messed up their hurried day. I am always mesmerized by rainfall. I got lost in the sound and sight of the heavens washing away the dirt and dust of the world. Memories of running, splashing so carefree as a child came pouring in as a welcome reprieve from the worries of my day.

To Beat Stress – Play and Babble


Sometimes you find something that changes your direction. Today I stumbled on the two articles below. Actually I was cleaning out my e-mail in-box and the title to an article caught my eye. And below it was another equally enticing title. I was definitely smiling by the time I finished reading them and I hope you smile, too.There are two different approaches to stress here and both are different from the main stream approach to stress management. They ask you to

Dangers of smoking

The top 10 worst ingredients in cigarettes were identified by the United States Department of Health and Human Services.

The list includes 599 additives and since cigarette burning alters the chemical compositions, up to 4 thousand are created when cigarette is burned, impacting not only on you, 
but everyone around you. 

Grandmother says... Carrots, Eggs, or Coffee; "Which are you?"


A young woman went to her grandmother and told her about her life and how things were so hard for her. She did not know how she was going to make it and wanted to give up. She was tired of fighting and struggling. It seemed as one problem was solved a new one arose.

A Positive start to the week.


Happy Monday I'm going to start this week off with a positive outlook and a smile on my face. I wish all of my family and friends...

Forget Not His Benefits.

God has given us many benefits today! He’s given us so much to be thankful for. When you meditate on His goodness, faithfulness and blessings in your life, it will change you on the inside. When you focus on the fact that
He saved you and set you free, the challenges and obstacles in your life will begin to fade away.

Courage

Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.— Richard Branson

God is not through with me yet.

I refuse to quit trusting Jehovah .i'm marching to my promise land and though falling down,mistakes,delays and disappointment may show up along my journey,i shall never forget that God is not through with me yet. I shall rise again and become what He says that i shall become and i shall fulfill my destiny.i shall not cry or cultivate self-hate now,because my best days are right ahead.

Who are you?

Take a look at yourself in the mirror; is it the person you wanna be? or there is someone else you were meant to be? the person you were meant to be,but you fell short of? Is someone telling you that you can't or you won't?

Home

In our home we are real. 
We have all made mistakes, and learned. 
We all say sorry, we forgive and give second chances. 

We laugh, we have fun and we give each other a hug when it's needed and
most of all, we love each other unconditionally.

Our home is a place where we will always belong. No matter What!

The Tablecloth.

The brand new pastor and his wife, were newly assigned to their first ministry. They were supposed to reopen a church in suburban Brooklyn. They arrived in early October excited
about their opportunities. 
When they saw their church, it was very run down and needed much work. They set a goal to have everything done in time to have their first service on Christmas Eve. They worked hard, repairing pews, plastering walls, painting, etc., and on December 18 were ahead of schedule and just about finished.

Hypocrites.

Oh yeah, they are everywhere!
We all come across them in life. Often times we misjudge them, more often we sense them, sometimes we recognize them, we try avoiding them but they keep up popping like mushrooms on wet grounds.

Where will you be in ten (10) years time.

Do you have a vision?
Do you have a goal?
I'm watching you shrugging your
shoulders, telling me you just don't know

Do you get emotional?

Some of the little ways we overlook everyday that has a major contribution to living a happy life.

1. Learn to love who you are. 
2. Let go of your emotions when you should. 
3. Make time for yourself, some alone time. 
4. Enjoy what you have, while you have it. 
5. Believe in you and allow yourself to grow. 
6. Never apologizing for just being yourself. 
7. Have kind and positive people around you. 
8. Accept what is, whatever it may be.

The way Wisdom.

My name is wisdom. I carefully monitored your conception, your birth and I am still monitoring your growth. I am focusing on you in particular because I love you. You may not know me but I know you. If you listen to
Me, I will change your life and make you great. Never doubt my ability because I have done it for Joseph, David, Job, Ruth, Samuel and Timothy in the past. Read about them in My book called Bible. Can you recollect now how I protected, delivered, promoted and mightily blessed them? What I did for them and much more will I do for you if your life attracts Me.

But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength.....

I read about the eagles some days ago and i realized how unique they are, linking this to a verse of the bible (Isiah 40:31)  that i've been hearing/reading over and over again.
 something about the second line really baffled me ''they shall mount up with wings as eagles''.

Life

''Life has taught me that you can't control someone's loyalty. No matter how good you are to them, doesn't mean that they will treat you the same. No matter how much they mean to you, doesn't mean that they'll value you the same. Sometimes, the people you love the most turn out to be the people you can trust the least''_Trent Shelton

The good fight.

If you are familiar with weapons, you know that there are special and sophisticated weapons used for specific purposes and/or effects. The success of every war can be rated not only by the number of warriors and their strength,but also by the assortment of weapons at their disposal. 

Friends

Just as we made friends growing up and lost them, a lot of things will come and go, it will hurt but there’s so much love and friendships and relationships out there waiting to be experienced by us.
