The issue is that someone won't make as much money. If it takes years to "talk therapy" someone, there's potentially hundreds of thousands of dollars to be made. But three sessions (or maybe less) with a master hypnotherapist or NLP specialist, isn't going to make as much money. In the United States these days, and maybe it's spreading... money is all that matters. There is nothing else that matters anymore. Not men, not women, not children, not families, not the environment, not patriotism, not common sense, not integrity, not honor, not character, not education, not patience, not honesty. It's all about the bottom line.
And sooner or later, it's going to have consequences. But the thing is, nobody cares about tomorrow, when they can be rich today by playing dirty. The height of immaturity.
Find yourself a master hypnotherapist. Find someone who has advanced Eriksonian training, and maybe NLP training. I know more about the hypnosis aspect right now, and I have to say that I have seen Eriksonian stuff do insane things with me, and I was very difficult to hypnotize before that. A skilled hypnotherapist employing advanced methods like those can do in a small number of sessions what a less skilled practitioner or someone using less effective techniques would take much longer to do.
Thanks Shannon. I've read up on hypnosis a lot. I might be going to see one soon, depending on the credentials she has. Unfortunately I know there are a lot of unskilled hypnotists floating around. I believe some individuals are more difficult to hypnotize than others, but like you said that's the job of a skilled hypnotist. Lately I've just been sick of big pharma and it's constant assertion that there is a "chemical imbalance" in the brain. That lie was manufactured to make money, I have no doubt. And while there are individuals that are aided greatly by the meds, they would probably do even better if time was taken to actually help them fix their root issue.
Lately I've been fed up with the greed for money as well. More and more as I grow as an individual I feel so isolated. I know there are others out there that feel the same. This country needs a change, and I've been feeling the mental strain on me from living in an environment that's so toxic. I need to rise above it all and live life to the fullest, but for whatever reason I have these overwhelming obstacles I seem to face. It got me thinking that if I'm not as confident in myself as I want to be, it makes it that much harder to actually live in this country. I can see how ruthless living here can be and I guess that scares me. I need to get to a place where I can see the negativity and be strong enough to not let it get to me.
