Another great episode! Thanks Cal & Erika!
As you know, once you've done this work for awhile, the "miracles" are expected because they happen so often!
And when a client says, "That was so easy it's too good to be true", I remind them that sunshine and fresh air are also easy, good and TRUE! So why not just be grateful!
Thank you Karen, I'm glad you liked the episode. I have to admit this one was even more fun than usual - talking about miracles has a tendency to make me feel energized and uplifted, hence part of the reason why I like being a hypnotist to begin with. And what a great response that is - Sunshine and Fresh air, thank you for sharing - I'm going to use that next time 😉
Hey Karen - It is always great to hear from you. Thanks for the praise. The topic idea was Erika's. She is doing a great job. I'm so happy to have her as a co-host with me. 🙂
I'm glad to hear some additional responses to that "but, it's so easy, how could it be real" response from clients (I'll definitely hang onto Karen's "sunshine and fresh air" one as well!!). It's definitely great to hear some of Cal and Erika's unexpected "miracle" side effects as well. Thanks for a great video!
I really enjoyed the way you moved from the unexpected miracles to the problem of our overuse of sugar...
It was interesting for me because I have recently started to quit sugar from my life, as like you Cal, I was stunned to read some food labels & see the sugar content of so called healthy foods. Amazing & frightening. For me it just makes sense as to why so many people have been following a low fat diet for some time now & yet obesity levels are higher than ever. But, even more than that, it's the illnesses that seem to be becoming epidemic, eating all this low fat "healthy" food.
It's sugar and It's poison. Actually, it's the fructose that's the killer, but sugar on the labels lump ALL sugar together, so it's difficult to know what % is what. Our bodies are not able to cope with it. It's converted directly to fat by our liver. I have discovered that fructose does not actually trigger the hypothalamus (which lets our body know when we're full) so we can just continue eating it and not feel full. We've all had that feeling right? And, studies are suggesting that sugar is as addictive as cocaine!
Anyway...I digress, like you did. But, I just find it fascinating and more than a little bit scary.
I love the fact that clients can achieve unexpected miracles- perhaps that really just proves your theory Cal, that the client doesn't always know what the cause of their problem is or was. How about the presenting issue, weight, smoking etc is really just the SPE?
Hi Susan - Regarding you question about the presenting problem. I think I agree with your question. 🙂 I remember Ed Wonder who is a 5-PATH once said, "They only think they are in to lose weight (or stop smoking, or whatever)". By that we mean that these issues and complaints are not the real "problem", they are a side effect or symptom of the true inner issue, or cause, which is usually some kind of painful emotion or limiting belief in the subconscious mind.
Yes, you mentioned Ed Wonder and that comment I think in this episode and that's what got me thinking about it.
Plus of course, you tell us in our 5-PATH training that while we should always be respectful of and listen to our clients and what they "think" their problem is or the cause of their problem, don't necessarily believe it, because it may not actually be true. That is just what their conscious mind thinks.
