From The Road:

This comes in from one of our readers about the recent article on Auditory Swish:

Dear Wil,

My name is Zelig Pliskin and I've been into NLP since 1982 when I read Frogs into Princes.

I am an expert on creating and accessing states. This is something that I do daily (as does everyone else on our planet even though they don't necessarily have the concept of state as their conscious way of looking at their lives and the world.

I also haven't used the regular visual Swish pattern. But when you know how to access great states at will, you don't need to use a Swish pattern.

As I've written in the March 2001 issue of Anchor Point in an article "On Collecting States" by giving unique names to your states that are stored in your brain, you can easily and instantaneously access the state you want at will.

After practicing access the state you wish, you just need to know the state you want to be in this very moment and then access it. A name for the state is the anchor.

For example, when a performer wants to go into a great state, all he would need to do is go into his "Super Performer Absolutely Great State" state. If someone doesn't yet have this state in his mental state collecting, he just needs to create one. See what he would see (even if hardly anything), hear what he would hear, and feel what he would feel. This can be done with creating an "as if" feeling. This can be done by putting on the head of a Super Master of the skill he wants and feeling the absolute confidence that this person would feel.

I consider the hobby of collecting great states as one of the most valuable hobbies one can have.

I wish you all the best,

Zelig

Theory into Practice:

This is from Georgina Cannon of Canada, this is a subject that is near to my heart, once you read this you will want to make sure you attend her conference call, and get her Past Life book. She will also be teaching her Past Life course at our facility in Florida in the future.

“I talked about how each one of us is here to learn a specific lesson so that our souls can evolve. Many, many people have been assigned the lesson of forgiveness.

It's not hard to see how this is so. Just look at where the opposite of forgiveness does its damage. Hatred and resentment start wars and feuds that continue for generations. Anger creates violence and crime, breaks down marriages and gives rise to physical illnesses.

Whether forgiveness is your primary lesson this lifetime or not, everyone benefits from the forgiveness factor.

What is Forgiveness?

Forgiveness doesn't mean that you agree with what happened. It means that you have an understanding of the situation that caused your hurt or anger, and you can let it go. Forgiveness is about taking back your power.

By and large, people behave in the only ways they know how. Sometimes they have been sent by the universe to teach us a valuable, though painful, lesson through their behaviour. Forgive them for the role they agreed to play.

Forgiveness must be true. It must come from the inside. The forgiveness must be so profound that the situation that caused your hurt truly doesn't matter. Through a carefully choreographed hypnosis session you let go of the hurt. Yes, just like that, it goes. And forgiveness and understanding takes its place.

When it's truly gone, you'll know. You'll feel lighter, more at peace. Carrying anger and resentment with you is like carrying a sack of coal. It's dark and heavy and weighs you down.

Beginning the Process of Forgiving

List three people you have not forgiven and what you have not forgiven them for. For each person and event, perform the following steps:

* Close your eyes and picture the situation that caused the need for forgiveness. Picture yourself rising above it and seeing it from a new angle, from today's point of view.

*Acknowledge your part in the situation. If you were a child at the time, note that, and allow that although you felt the pain, the person giving the pain probably was behaving the only way they knew how. Bring understanding to the situation. Comfort that child in your mind, and recognize that you are not the powerless child any more. You can make choices, adult choices, on how to feel and behave.

*Bring closure to the situation by first forgiving yourself, then the other person. Acknowledge that life has moved forward since the time of that event and you wish to let go of any anger or resentment.

Forgiveness is a powerful force that can liberate your soul. It brings a fresh start. Give yourself a gift. Forgive someone today--yourself or someone else--and let the sunshine in!”

Techniques and Tips:

Moving On

By: Lucy Adams

I like to use this technique when someone needs to move on after a breakup but works very well with weight, smoking and various other issues as well.

First I gain rapport with the client and have them give me a brief history of the relationship they want to change. Through their wording, I find out if they are Visual, Kinesthetic or Auditory. I us a progressive relaxation or other induction and then ask them to visualize the other person as being there. I ask them to describe the connection to the other person as a cord and ask them to notice where they are connected to the other person by this cord. I ask them what color the cord is, what shape is it? What size is it?, What is the texture, What’s the energy running through the cord, is there any message, are there any blockages? Then I have the client change any part of the relationship that needs changing and have them rebuild the cord by identifying the issues that need to be changed, visualizing changing the cords, running healthy energy through the cords, going through the forgiveness process and the acceptance process. After I emerge them, I have them do another visualization imagining themselves 5, 10, 15, 20 years down the road if they had stayed in the bad relationship and how their life would be if they stayed with the person (or the habit) and then have them visualize themselves 5, 10, 15, 20 years down the road letting go of the person (or habit) and how their life has changed (for the positive).

For those of you that remember the Mending a Broken Heart Technique (check the web site) this would be a great way to end it!

Marketing:

Finally this is about another training you may want to look into at the NGH:

“I know that many of you are planning on attending the NGH convention this year, and may be wondering about which courses to attend and which presenters are worth seeing. I completely understand and so I would like to make a recommendation, one of the presenters that I want to single out is Cal Banyan who will be conducting a number of courses at the convention, including a one hour course on the Universal Script, a three hour course on 5-PATH, his universal approach to doing hypnotherapy and most importantly his 3 and 4 day 5-PATH Certification Course. Cal is an award winning NGH presenter who owns a large and successful hypnosis center in Minneapolis, Minnesota. You may have seen his photo on the cover of the most recent NGH Journal of Hypnotism and read his interview. I encourage you to consider his courses and enroll in advance if you want to attend them. If you want more information you can go to his website at,
