Hi all,
I just had a post meditative thought that came to me, I’d like to share.
Let’s remember that healing is constant. I know other hypnosis teachers have taught that if you do this or that, everything will magically be good to go! And, not just hypnosis teachers but other “gurus” in different fields of self help.
But honestly, how many of you know anyone that magically healed everything in their life and is no longer dealing with any issues?
That’s why Randy and I are up front when we say HEALING IS CONSTANT, so you’d better have some tools.
I’ve met too many “gurus” out there telling you how wonderful their lives are as if they had not a care in the world because they did this “one” technique and life is nothing but roses now. And then behind closed doors, I came to learn that they’re not so care-free and peaceful.
Randy and I have broken a lot of the common (and many times sacred) rules in the hypnosis field about regression, direct suggestions and such.
Trust me, if DS or anything else for that matter truly worked for an all out cure of all my woes, I would be using it.
Maybe one day all our woes will be gone but until then we need a way to deal with the issues that come up as we go. We don’t need someone saying “do this and your problems will all be gone.” That just makes us feel like crap when all our problems aren’t gone. It reinforces old unwanted perceptions and feelings.
As much as I love regression and releasing hypnosis, if direct suggestion hypnosis (DS) were a magical cure I would become the biggest proponent of DS in the world.
Also, if one day this were to be the case, I know that the road I took to get there was regressing and releasing, or any other tools that felt like I was putting my hand over a candle flame.
I would understand that I had to put the “quarter in the video game” before I could experience the fun of the game (for some people their “quarter” may be different). And that this has made me a better healer, as I could see what someone would need when coming to me for my services. whether that be regression hypnosis, direct suggestion hypnosis, EFT, Eastern philosophy, meditation, spiritual lessons, etc…
With that said, I think the “gurus” have some valuable teachings but don’t take their teachings as the be all, cure all.
Even more so, don’t’ fall into the trap of thinking that only ONE way is THE way. BS! Isn’t that what most religions have placed on us?
Rather, take their teachings as a tool to help you move more calmly through life with its ups and downs.
If you do finally reach a climax with an issue that eventually breaks into pieces… From here you’ll get more moments of peace, but also know that you’ll then have to take care of the broken pieces and start all over again with each one!
How many pieces will you have to keep working on?
Love will bring everything unlike itself to the surface for healing. So, every time you reach a new level of love, more crap comes up
So how many pieces need to be healed before we could experience consistent peaceful bliss? It depends on how much crap you put in that stall from this lifetime and previous lifetimes. But remember, YOU put that crap in there through your perceptions, feelings and beliefs and ultimately your behaviors. Not anyone else. They may have influenced you, but you held on to it.
So take Jung’s advice and be willing to look inside: “he who looks outside dreams, he who looks inside awakens.” The answers are inside of you. Not some special technique that claims to be the be all, cure all. Reach inside and insight, clarity and peace will come.
Some have healed quite a bit and don’t need to dig as much and, therefore, are more apt to using “easier” methods like DS hypnosis, meditation, estherham, or “the secret” philsophies, Etc… for their life.
Yet some still have a lot of healing to go, thus need the deeper regress and release type hypnosis.
Don’t compare yourself to others.
Be honest with yourself, which one do you need?
Let me say again. HEALING IS CONSTANT. Be aware of your momentum as you heal.
If you fall into the trap of “oh, that old issue is showing it’s head again… I thought I cleared that, I must not be healed and I’m starting all over again.” Then guess what, you are starting all over again as you’ve just discarded the momentum (as subtle as it may be at times) that you’ve created.
It’s like having a clean horse stall after cleaning out a ton of crap and then all of a sudden a cat walks in and releases some excrement. Then instead of focusing using your tools to keep it clean, you focus on the cat crap. However, because you are so focused and frustrated on the cat crap , more cats walk in behind you that notice the excrement and think this is a big litter box and, so they follow suit. And before you notice it, guess what? You have to start all over again!
When the easiest thing to have done was use your tools to clean out the poop, spray it with a nice natural cleaner and put a litter box outside to let others deal with their own crap as you keep your stall clean.
Why is the self help industry so big?!
Because it’s filled with books and information on how to do the “one and only technique” that will magically take care of all your problems. The same people, over and over again, buy into these schemes searching from one book to the next, one workshop to the next for that magical cure. Let me let you in on something… That one cure doesn’t exist.
Even certain people in history that seemed to have found the peace they were looking for had to hop around from one thing to the other before everything finally came together. And it wasn’t just one thing that did it. It was the momentum of the searching that brought them to peace. Please re-reread that again. It was the momentum of the searching, not one technique, that brought them to a point of consistent peace.
As I’ve said a million times over ALL ROADS LEAD TO ROME. There is no one road that is better then the other. Rather one road is better then the other, RIGHT NOW.
So understand that the road that worked today, may not work tomorrow, but it may work the following month.
Alright, I’m going back into meditation 
.
BTW, if you’ve read this far email me at matt@mattsison.com, if you’re interested in a meditation cd I created for myself that is helping me bring my breaths down to eventually 1 breath a minute for about 20-30 minutes. Right now, I’m down to about 3.5 breaths per minute. I figure I’ll get to 1 breath sometime this year :-p.
