We have been taught that imagination is not
real, but, your deep internal mind cannot
differentiate imagination from actual experience... Work with me. . and use your imagination... during this presentation... Imagination is real and powerful...
For
example Robert Frost's "The Road Not Taken".
Two
roads diverged in a yellow wood,
and sorry
I could not travel both
and be
one traveler, long I stood
and
looked down one as far as I could
to where
it bent in the undergrowth;
Today imagine... you are standing at a fork in
the road... You have come to a decision point... Should
you continue to do what you have been doing with regard to pain's torture?... You
think about all the problems and concerns that the inability to help others, brings
into your life...
You all are here to develop your self confidence... in what you can do... or feel
in an pain free way... for the benefit of all...
The road on the left is a slow downward road.
It is easy to take the Low Road... You could just coast down it. It is the path
of doing what you have been doing for so long. But, it is a path of misery...
The road on the right goes upward. It will
take some effort to take the High Road... It is the way of freedom... It is the High Road To
Success!!! It is the road of being more comfortable.
Look at the road on the left... It means
carrying all of the problems associated with continuing your discomfort and anxiety even
longer than you already have... Think of how bad your weakness makes you feel...
Really allow yourself to feel... the
weight of the burden... of this
discomfort...
Feel
your desire to be free... from all of
the ill effects of hurting yourself this way...
Imagine going down that low road, of being disappointed, one more year... There you are, after one more year... of being misunderstood... because you
have continued to hide your abilities because you hurt... Feel the weight of the disappointment... in yourself... You notice the
things that litter this painful way of living in anxious misery... How many
others are hurt... by your inability to interact with them?... There is a mirror there, you see yourself and you ask yourself, "Am I
pleased with myself?... Am I happy to have another year of self-doubt?... Do I
feel better having made this decision?... Do I look and feel better about
myself, or not?... Do I feel better?... Feel
the disappointment... you have in yourself... for continuing to be afraid... for
another year!..." Really feel the consequences... of remaining on this low but easy road...
Come all the way back to now... to the
beginning of the fork in the road... And,
feel better... because none of that has to happen yet and it doesn't have to...
You have decided... not to let that happen to you... You have decided to take the
High Road of Success on the right!... You know that it will take a little more
effort, but now you know in your heart...
that it is worth it... You have decided to start respecting yourself! In fact
you have already left the old way... by coming here today!... You are already taking
your first steps... toward freedom from hurt... and success on the road on the right...
Let's see this new decision to help others by
having an active life. You think about all the good positive changes that becoming
free from the pain!... Being free... from all those problems,
you have the feeling... of really being in control and confidant... Free! Free!...
You are now on the path on the right. It means success and a feeling of energy
and optimism...
Once everything that can be done, and should be done, has been done, distracting pain has no value. Tell your conscious and unconscious minds this firmly, now. Once everything that can be done, and should be done, has been done, distracting discomfort has no value. Say it out loud. Once everything that can be done, and should be done, has been done, you have comfort...
Imagine going down that road.. of having made
this change... There you are... after one year... of being
in control... You feel good, great!!! You have done it... you are a success... and
you never felt better.. and you feel even
better yet!... There is a mirror there... and you see yourself and you ask
yourself, "Am I pleased with myself?... Am I happy... to have accomplished my
goals... for a whole year?... For a moment just reflect... on all of the positive
aspects of yourself:... your creativity, your
intelligence, your talents... People see you as a good friend...,
a good worthwhile person... Just imagine
yourself feeling comfortable... See yourself,
confident... certain of your abilities, very certain,
your correctness, certain of your talents, and certain of your comfort... Ask
yourself, "Do I feel better having made this decision?... Do I feel
smarter?..." Feel the pride...
that is inside of you. Was it worth it?... Yes, you want to continue... and stay on the
High Road of enjoying life?...
Anxious hiding is now simply something that
you used to do. It was a mistake to have ever done it...
but now you are free,... and will remain free for the rest
of your life!... You look into that mirror one more time and ask yourself,
"Am I pleased with myself... to be comfortable
for a year?... Would I ever go back to that old bad habit of hurting myself by being
afraid of the discomfort ?... Am I
glad that I have made this permanent change?... A change made for good?..." Of course you are!...
You now have a new found level of certainty...
you are ready... really ready... to feel OK!...
You are now ready stay on the road on the right, the High Road of Success...
Frost
finishes with:
I
shall be telling this with a sigh.
Somewhere
ages and ages hence:
Two
roads diverged in a wood, and I ..
I
took the one less traveled by,
and that
has made all the difference.
You have heard about people with very painful experiences
being able to ignore their pain and so can you. Examples are child birth, fire
walking, major surgery and battle field injuries. Pain is an important warning
for something physically wrong and for this reason, I will require a medical
doctor to understand your pain and give you written permission to pursue
hypnosis as a method to minimize your discomfort and maximize your ability to
cope. Hypnotism is always complementary to the best medical and psychological
services.
For your doctor, block and copy this letter, then print it:
