Hi Brett, You statement about this thread having as many lives as a cat is interesting. That is exactly what has happened every time I have posted a question about smoking. Me thinks smoking IS not as easy or simple as one might presume from all th…

Hi Brett! That tarot bit - slightly bemused as to how that relates to the rest of the post! Anyway, the "one-session" part is a suggestion, and as we all know, there is no power in a suggestion... it is how the client FEELS about the suggestion at…

Hi Susan, Wow this thread has more lives than a cat. Obviously not a smoking cat. Susan said ... how do you guys address the protocol outline: 1) throw away your cigs or leave them here or 2) what form of cutting down do you suggest? I've read wrap…

I agree with Gordon that lots of approaches will work whether they hang on to the notion of addiction or they don't. Also, I appreeciate that we get into habits with our therapeutic methods and the language we use, and if we seem to be doing okay wi…

It was late when I read the post and hurriedly posted a response that piqued my curiosity. I don't care what the perspective on addiction is, if a technique helps a smoker become a non-smoker, God Bless it. Interesting, though, how my inquiry touche…

Hi Susan,

Will enjoy meeting and talking with you, even at a distance.

In addition to the broken rib, I've been snowbound most of the week. Hence the "flurry" of activity on Hypnothoughts!

I've just been reading “the dove" and maybe I'm obtuse but the lines of argument all seem very confused-sprinkled with impressive levels of self righteousness. As far as I can make out people are talking about 'claimed sensitivity as weapon' and whether we choose to be hurt or not. Am I right?

All the very best

Lol I meant your comments in general not just the ones about me...

Hi Susan

I hope you're well and thanks for your kind comments. I'd just like to say (at this risk of sounding like an attendee at a mutual admiration society meet) that I find your comments informed, intelligent and infused with obvious humanity : )

Susan, hi. I'm still new here and wanted to invite you to be a friend, but missed that button and have someone coming in a few moments. Just wanted to add that I saw your discussion about when "it" doesn't work and jumped in halfway -- it got a little out of hand, but I hope my comment was helpful. I also love reading and want to make sure you've seen Havens & Walters, Hypnotherapy Scripts, 2002, an Ericksonian Approach. Not only are their scripts so good I see them often used by others without attribution (of course, I don't know for sure who used them first), but he's got a great chapter on how to write your own.
Cheers,
Stephanie

Stream of thought ... following on from Albert Ellis' idea that we often undervalue the positive ... a metaphor/visualisation based on Homeopathic Carbon (Graphites). I'll try to weave in a theme of self-worth, the essence of Graphites. (This is written on the fly ... just ideas!)

As you know, carbon is the element of life, it is found in all living things, there would be no life without carbon, but the feeling of the carbon atom, and the carbon patient, is that she is small, plain, humble, and insignificant in a vast universe. As you relax, imagine you are a tiny mote of carbon, floating in the vastness of space, remember that you have the power to join with other carbons to form chains of molcules that form the basis of life on earth, there is nothing plain or ordinary about carbon ... it is the staff of life, and its softness is the source of all goodness ... giving meaning and value to life on earth, gently bringing comfort and warmth to the home, dignity to the family ... to all around her ...

Hey Susan;
I really enjoy all of your contributions to the discussions. I tried e-mailing you as you suggested for your "sleep" script, but it came back to me as wrong address. Could you email me at
amindsetforpositivechange@bellnet.ca
Thanks again,
Brenda Kaiser

Thanks for the information, Sheila. I will keep my pricing structure the same. I seem to charge less than others as it is. That and I don't feel that my clients would expect me to lower my fees to make up for the government's tax increases. I think…
