"Thank you, that is precisely the question I should have been asking myself, what is he defending (avoiding)? I just get so caught up in how many and how overwhelming his issues are that sometimes I forget to just keep it simple.  "

About Me:
I was a professional golfer on the ladies mini-tours for many heartbreaking years. My coach believed a great deal in hypnosis and used it extensively with my golf training. I'm positive it was the reason I was able to achieve numerous personal and professional changes. I was so intrigued with the affects hypnosis had on my behavior that when my attempt at a golf career was over, I just had to study hypnosis for myself. Not only to understand how such wonderful things could happen in my life so easily but also to one day be able to pass on to others the same type of miracles.
Hobbies:
Golf, gardening, creative writing, yoga
