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.

Hey Everyone

A lot has happened over the last couple of weeks for me and one of them was that I showed up at the Hypnoticon event in Atlanta. As many of you know I’m good friends with Taylor (Pokerwithoutcards of YouTube fame, his blog at trancedout.com, and the TrancedOUT forums).

Taylor is an amazing hypnotist and Personal Development Coach. I met Taylor through YouTube a few months back and we have become pretty good friends since then. I recently found out he was coming down to Atlanta for Hypnoticon (an open-ended hypnosis convention, featuring some amazing hypnotists) and thought this would be a good chance to meet up. I found out about the convention too late to schedule time in to attend the official event, but I still wanted to meet with Taylor, catch a bite to eat, hang out, and talk hypnosis. I arrived in Atlanta about 5:30pm and met up with Taylor and his business partner Oscar at the convention hotel. We then decided to get something to eat from this great place called House of Chan. During our dinner I got to interview Taylor and Oscar and learned that these two guys are onto some next level type of stuff when it comes to hypnosis, personal development, language patterns and so much more.

For those of you who don’t know Trancedout.com is a hypnosis and NLP blog that I visit on and off. It’s run by a hypnotist who has some really great video’s on youtube. I actually posted a link to one of his video’s in an earlier post. I actually owe him a lot because it was his video that got me interested in rapid and instant inductions.

I decided to visit his site today to see if any new articles have been written and to my surprise he has created a new hypnosis, NLP and Personal Development forum. I love forums and the honest truth is their just aren’t enough really good hypnosis forums. I’m hoping that this could be the start of a really great forum. I don’t work for trancedout.com and he hasn’t asked me to write about his forum. I just figured if more people knew about the forum then it could end up having a nice community. So if your into hypnosis, NLP or Personal Development then check out the forum. The forum can be found HERE and his blog can be found HERE.

In other news I’m sorry I haven’t posted anything in a couple of weeks, but I have been battling a small cold and some personal issues. So just bare with me and in a couple of days things will begin to pick up.
