FEATURE ARTICLE
What's
Your Question?
At the
beginning of each year I host an “Envisioning
Party.” Friends gather with
magazines and scissors. We then sprawl on the carpet, intuitively cut
out
pictures that appeal to us and glue them on poster-board. Yes, it does
look a
little bit like a kindergarten class but the process is powerful! And each subsequent year people tell me that
their “visions” or deepest desires did come true.
This creative
activity allows the Sub-Conscious
Mind to speak in its language of pictures, symbols and feelings.
It differs
from the usual goal-setting, financial aims or business plan which
would come
from the logical Conscious Mind. What manifests
in the following months is usually the essence of the desires, whether
it is more
balance, fun, creativity, adventure, learning etc… And
occasionally it is very specific,
such as a loving relationship or a more fulfilling career.
I now realize
that this process is so powerful because it involves listening, not
telling.
There are no “Should’s” but rather questions. There
are no accusatory “Why’s?”
(such as “Why aren’t I getting what I want?”), but
rather curious “How’s?” It
is an open-ended and wondering attitude that can explore all
possibilities.
Before we
started tearing through magazines this time, I asked each of us to
share what
question we wanted this year to fulfill. How would this year be different if we
could hold the question in front of us, like a beacon lighting the way?
(Very
different than demanding a result!)
The questions
my friends proposed were very personal, such as: “How
can I have more balance while taking care of my parents?”
“How can
I have more fun while feeling overwhelmed with work and three
children?” “What
is my soul’s true purpose this year?” “How can I be
totally present to each
precious day?” I especially loved this one –“What
is the next loving thing I can do for myself?”
What
I’ve
discovered in Hypnotherapy is that the Sub-Conscious mind is immensely
creative. When we take the time to listen and then give voice or
picture to it,
it has the opportunity to powerfully give us what we need!
Coincidences fall
into place, people show up and we are motivated to exert necessary
discipline.
Life ceases to be such a demanding struggle and more of a curious
adventure.
Just wondering,
what’s your question?
(And if you
are wondering how to be more in control of cravings, negative emotions
or
motivation or how you can get a better night’s sleep, check out
the upcoming
workshops.)

FEATURED SUCCESS
STORIES
“After
4 sessions in your office
last year I still listen to the CD's and do self-hypnosis daily. This
helped me to reduce the intake
of my pain medication for my back pain by 75 %.
I previously had epidurals and acupuncture. Neither worked for me- but
the Hypnotherapy
does. Thank you!”
-- Sigi Oberlaender, Indialantic
“The
self-hypnosis techniques Dr. Doner teaches are extremely beneficial to
our
patients with chronic insomnia and
stress. We also learned to quickly relax in
any situation in our daily lives. In just a couple of seconds I can
take a
mental vacation to the Florida Keys!”
--
Lauren Butler, Sleep Disorder Center, Sebastian River Medical Center,
Sebastian, FL.
“When
I started Hypnotherapy I was such a totally mess that it scared me and
my
family. I couldn’t sleep or eat due to my high anxiety level and
pain. I had lost over 51 pounds over a two month
period and was hospitalized three times. After my first session, I
finally
slept for the first night in over 2 months! Through the sessions, CDs, Emotional
Freedom Technique and other healing therapies I’m finally
happy again. I’ve
gained over 21 pounds and have a remarkable difference in my over-all
well-being.”

FOOD FOR THOUGHT
Your
Sub-Conscious Mind contains great wisdom and boundless creativity. Its
language
is imagination and emotion. And in order to listen to it and speak to
it you
must use its language. (Artists know this and the media uses this!)
So,
in order to leave behind confusion and indecision, you can choose to
give your
Sub-Conscious Mind a direction of possibilities.
- Simply
ask a question, such as “How
would I like to be, feel or experience my life?
What types of people or places make me happy? What really fulfills me?
How can
I take excellent care of myself?”
- Then
put yourself into self-hypnosis, a day-dreaming setting or look through
magazines and notice what comes. (Or have a Hypnotherapist guide you.)
- Trust
that your creative Sub-Conscious Mind contains all you have ever seen,
done or
thought. It cares deeply about you. Just trust that the answers are
there, now
or later, in a book or a dream…
When you keep
this question and the answers in mind, the keys to fulfilling your
desires will
also emerge over time.
Then it’s up to you to act!
