Tranquil Minds

Last week I went to a Hypnotherapist. I’m going again this Wednesday. He’s trying to help me with the things that I want to change in my life. Like my weight for instance. There’s other stuff too which may or may not tie themselves into my weight issue as well. Like anxiety, stress, motivation, self-esteem, happiness et cetera.

It’s actually very relaxing. The first time I went to see him it was just a free consult to see if I wanted to start up which I’d already had set up in my mind that I did, so the free consult was kind of a waste of time. The second time I went was a real session except we had to do a lot of talking in the beginning so that he could get to know what I needed from him. This was actually kind of hard for me. It was hard for me to ask a total stranger for what I needed in my life. I mean if I needed a pencil I wouldn’t have trouble asking for a pencil, but eternal happiness…that’s hard to ask for. At least for me. I have the whole “I don’t deserve to be happy et cetera” mentality. Yup I’m a total martyr. Lol. So I got all shy and I don’t even remember what we were talking about by the time I “woke up” from my “trance”.

While I was “under” I could hear everything he said, but as soon as he went onto the next thing it was pushed back in a file folder in my brain and it kept doing that. So the only thing I really remember is that few minutes at the end where he told me to wake up.

He put this “post-hypnotic suggestion” in at the end. I remember talking about that before it began. So every time I take a sip of water my subconscious will inform kinda clue in to this idea that I can be happy confident motivated and slim.

As soon as I left I felt relaxed and sleepy. Lol. I wanted to get home so fast and have a sip of water to see if I would react differently to the same ole H2O. I think because I knew that he put that post-hypnotic suggestion in my head that I tried to feel better with that first sip, but I’ve been still drinking water ever since and it’s fading I think.

Can’t wait to see what will come of this.
