Hey Everyone,
I was up late last night and ran across an interesting show on TLC. A very well known hypnotist by the name of Paul Mckenna has a show called I Can Make You Thin, which is a show where he teaches people how to lose weight without using diets. His show seems to revolve around different techniques for learning to control what you eat and how you eat. The truth is that many of the techniques he uses are hypnosis techniques or at least techniques that some hypnotists use within their practices.
I notice that when his show comes on they never mention his background as a hypnotist. They refer to him as some type of self-improvement guru in Britain. Paul made a name for himself as a stage hypnotist many years ago and then went on to write a number successful books and self improvement products. I understand why they don’t mention his hypnosis background as I’m sure the show wants to appeal to the widest audience they can. I have a feeling some people may object to the use of hypnosis for whatever reason. It amazes me though because hypnosis is all around us. Everyone uses it at one point in time, but they just never realize they are using hypnosis. I find this to be quite funny sometimes.

When I first got started in hypnosis I went around to everyone I knew asking to hypnotize them. Most of the people said no, but a few of them agreed to “try” hypnosis. These people knew nothing about hypnosis, but being a confidence newcomer I didn’t feel I had to educate them on hypnosis. I figured all I had to do was copy some youtube video’s I’ve seen.
I knew I could hypnotize someone and emerge them from hypnosis if I just followed the videos I had watched. Looking back on this situation I think I may have been to confidence in myself, which can blow up in your face sometimes. I walked up to the guy, told him to press on my hand, close his eyes and the moment he started to apply pressure to my hand I yelled “sleep” in a deep voice. As I yelled sleep I knew I was going to be successful. I glanced up to see what a person in hypnosis looks like in real life and got a surprise. His eyes were wide open; he looked at me and said did it work? My hurt ego took a moment and answered “no, it didn’t work and I’m
not sure why”.

Hello Everyone
While I was out the other day I ran into an old friend who to my surprise is now a doctor. I haven’t seen this friend in a long time so we decided to get together for lunch in a few days and play catch up.
We finally met up for lunch the other day and I began to tell him how I’m slowly moving out of Real Estate and have since become a Certified Hypnotist over the course of the last few years. This caught him off guard a little and was curious on how I made the transition from the Real Estate world to the Hypnosis world. I told him my story and he was pretty surprised that I made such an interesting life change. Overall I thought he took it quite well. After a moment or two of silent he asked me a question. He asked me when I was moving from Columbus? I told him I wasn’t planning to move at all and was curious as to why he assumed I was moving.
