Introducing Aardvark-Hypnosis

Hypnosis is a process of communication whereby the process of listening and absorbing the message is enhanced. The message can be conveyed by sight sound movement or touch. Most people have at some time or other been entranced by  : the sight of the setting sun, the sound of the waves crashing on the shore, wind rustling through the leaves, rain drumming on the roof. Maybe it has been , soaking in a bath listening to a particular melody caressed by the  aroma of an exotic perfume as we drifted off. Anytime we become preoccupied by an abstraction that obscures external stimuli it is considered to be a trance state. Reading an engrossing book or watching a compelling movie , listening to engaging music all could induce a light trance.

One day at the flea market I picked up a book “ How the Mind Works “ and when I took it home I discovered a letter tucked inside, it was over a hundred years old. I could only read the date on the envelope because the writing was Chinese. I took it to a restaurant in town, hoping that the owner who was Chinese could translate it for me.   Read More

Introduction to Metaphore's

Parables. fables, nursery-rhymes, movies, t.v. shows, can all function as a metaphor. A metaphor is an article of speech that conveys a meaning in addition and different than the literal meaning.
 
The additional meaning can slip pass the conscious filter and embed in the subconscious . Therefore, the same story can have different significance for different people. Equally the same story can have different significance to a single person at different times. For example the cartoon movie  Bambi will have a relevance  today that was not apparent fifty years ago. Although I still tear up when I recall the statement, 
 
Your mother wont be coming home or words to that effect. To all the people who saw the movie and also enjoy deer hunting, obviously took a different meaning than I did. How the story is told will influence the affect on the listener. A story read on a crowed bus will have make a different impression than when read late at night alone during a thunderstorm .
 
What we see hear and do, how and when will have a decisive impact on how we feel. So pick a story, poem, song, movie that resonates with you in a positive way and keep it close to your heart.
