I don't know of that course, but I know of HMI. They have a free hypnotism course, which I took after I'd been at hypnosis for ten years. It's older -- it was recorded in the 70s -- but it has some good material, and I picked up some new tricks and…

How are you, and how do you like being overseas, what a great adventure for a young person to experience. I hope all is well, and you stay well.

No problem. We are fine. Water under the bridge.

I have been following your discussions on working with the kids in Viet Nam / Cambodia. I am sure the country has changed quite a bit since I was there in the early '70's. The United States was attempting to teach them something different back then, using bombs, napalm, and soldiers - something I strongly supported back then because I was in my teens, and not very worldly. I think one of our best educations is time, and what time teaches us.

Back then Cambodia was not a pretty time. The sad thing is our country has done the same exact things in Panama (yeah Mr. Bush,we went there to get Noriega, right, sure thing - that is why we totally destroyed that country's military) and now in Iraq we did the same thing. At some point, I think we need to keep our nose closer to our problems at home. Okay, enough of my ramblings. If you have never seen the documentary The Panama Deception, it is well worth the watch ... it is an eye opener. Most of what is contained in there is factual. I personally met one of the people who was a general in the Panama Army and had captured Noriega for the United States. When the United States failed to go get Noriega, his (Noriega's) henchmen found where they were hiding him. Noriega's men assinated everyone but Nieko. They imprisoned and tortured him, and the only reason he survived is because the U.S. invaded 6 months later on the pre-text of protecting U.S. citizens and capturing Noriega.

free documentary.com has some excellent stuff

Yes, I am over it. I had sent a reply to you via the comment wall, but never heard back from you, so after several days, I just removed it. I had talked to Scott about the incident, and he explained that he had talked with you. In any event, it is water under the bridge.

This is a post concerning the article that I recently submitted. I think the article is interesting, and worth the read. And no, I did not write it, nor do I believe any of it except for the comments positive of hypnosis.
............................

Another bit of reading I found interesting can be found on the internet ...

sharon tabarn + stage hypnosis ... should bring it up.

It is an article written I believe for some type of research paper, and deals with a young woman who died (allegedly) because of a suggestion given as a voluntary participant in a hypnosis stage show.

I attempted to post it once before, but the file is too large for this site, and after chopping it up to make it fit, someone assumed it was my writing or something ... anyway, let's just say I pulled it because I did not care for the comments directed at me .

Most of article is rather far fetched (my opinion), and may not directly deal with the regulating of hypnosis; but it does demonstrate the extremes that attorneys, scientists, religious groups, and people will go to prove their point ... scientific or othewise.

Maybe when scientists are over educated, they lose site of reality or common sense. Who knows.

Hey Conrad - hope you made it to Phnom Penh in one piece. Cambodia is an amazing country, and I hope you find adventure there ;-)

Cheers,

Hi Conrad,
Thanks for your kind words on my page.
Life is good this end, with lots to be happy about.
Hope you're well and happy.

It seems that the majority of people believe what they are TOLD.
I have believed what makes me feel comfortable.
You seem to believe, only what makes sense based on your experience. How can that be wrong?
If you are continualy questioning, which you seem to be doing, You have an open mind and surely that is the best thing.

Conrad,
I didn't mean to "go on..." when I posted.
I think you have the BEST view.
There is something very special about you. There have been child geniuses at 3 yrs old. It has nothing to do about age, or how much you have learned. There is something that you bring, I don't know where you bring it from... perhaps another life, I don't know, but there is something about you.
I would certainly advise you to follow whatever you believe...
You are right

Hey Conrad - Doing well. Lots of H clients both individual and groups. Seems that more people are getting the feeling... and loving every minute of it. Have you begun your practice? Do you have an office or a good situation at your home to work with clients? I know you're talented and the world needs your skills.

I do encourage you to attend the NGH Convention this August, even if it's only for the Friday. I'd love to see you there.

I'll be presenting my system for test-taking / study-skills and how it can get your foot in the door at schools for all sorts of issues.

Great to hear from you. I certainly enjoyed meeting you in NYC so long ago.

Be well. G
