So upon more reflection I'm pretty sure the hypnotherapist allowed me to see things in a new light. And it's given me some thought to how I've approached any self-help change methods over the years.
I've stated before I was a skeptic. I like to see something work, how it works, if it works, etc. But I realized I look through a filter. An incredibly biased filter I might have picked up from negativity from scientists.
I've pretty much moved on from that. I want to get better so from now on I just use anything. Recently I've went back to using EFT, whether or not it's a placebo effect I really don't care. Even placebo is using the power of the mind and in the end if that causes change that's great. For too long I've been too concerned with proving something instead of focusing on using it to get better. I realized I'd rather be wrong and happy in the eyes of skeptics, than right and miserable.
My new motto is use whatever works. I like subliminals for installing new beliefs. But sometimes I need a little extra help with clearing out negative emotions, so I'll use whatever I've got. Who knows, maybe my subconscious couldn't do it directly and it's led me to this realization.
