Welcome back to the podcast. My name is Joseph
0:18
Clough and this is episode 933. In today's episode
0:24
we're doing a bit of a Q&A. So
0:27
I've got questions already and
0:29
also if you did not know I
0:31
go live on YouTube so we've got
0:33
some questions on YouTube as well. If
0:35
you ever want to join me on
0:37
YouTube we go live Mondays
0:39
and Fridays and that is
0:42
at youtube.com/Joseph
0:44
Clough. So
0:47
let's dive in to your questions.
0:49
I think they'll
0:52
be pretty helpful because people
0:55
will have questions that you did
0:57
not know you had until someone
1:00
else asked the question. So
1:03
stay with me you might find some
1:05
of these really really helpful. The
1:08
first question is actually about the app
1:10
itself. So if you haven't got the
1:12
hypnosis app you can go to freehypnosis.app
1:15
and the question is how to best
1:17
use the app. That's
1:19
a pretty good question because it's a little bit tricky
1:21
at times. What kind of things do we use? What
1:24
kind of subjects? How many times I
1:26
should listen to? There's too many times
1:28
I can listen to it. So
1:31
the best way to use
1:33
the app in my opinion is
1:36
to consider what your
1:38
issue is and then begin
1:40
to find the kind of themes within the
1:43
app which is going to be best suited
1:45
on the caveat that sometimes
1:48
our symptoms are very
1:50
very big that can cloud over what
1:52
the real issue is like the core
1:54
issue which I'll be getting into on
1:56
another question soon. But notice
1:58
what kind of That resonate
2:00
with you because owes me
2:03
in the hypnosis as we've
2:05
got. Lots
2:07
of different sections we got like the
2:09
free a section with got the main
2:11
hypnosis lab which has day and night
2:14
tracks are going to custom hypnosis section.
2:16
we got the for our sleep sessions
2:18
the morning meditations on the face of
2:20
it back to be a little bit
2:22
overwhelming by if we break it down
2:25
you want to figure out what is
2:27
the most suited hypnosis session for your
2:29
name sir. You find yourself anxious.
2:31
Then you want to be typing
2:33
in anxious in the hypnosis library
2:35
or the Custom or the I'm
2:37
To Sleep session, for example. Now
2:40
I would suggest. As.
2:43
A strategy of.
2:46
Listening. To a morning meditation of
2:48
ten minutes so sorry ten minutes Bill
2:51
set up your day for success and
2:53
then the eva use a date hi,
2:55
I'm hypnosis or asleep on Tv. Got
2:57
time for a day and might mess
3:00
finance. One of the questions was a
3:02
is it's who Many times you can
3:04
listen sir and the answer to that
3:06
question is. If
3:08
it gets tedious and it feels like
3:11
had short then you're listening too much
3:13
of the hypnosis you want to be
3:15
as a dirt so you enjoy you're
3:17
looking for to have but azam morning
3:20
meditation just ten minutes at a may
3:22
be asleep one that sees us upon
3:24
a time. Just listen
3:27
to as you go to sleep. Enough awards
3:29
and a may be a day session if
3:31
you do that. Frequently.
3:34
Like every day for thirty days you're
3:36
gonna get the best out of the
3:38
app. Now one of a slight questions
3:40
was what if you have multiple. Issues:
3:45
You're walking on so maybe want
3:47
to lose weight by yourself on
3:49
com From how do we do
3:51
this? So in that question. Is
3:54
you slammed? The. Suits.
3:57
Topics that you have in mind
3:59
off in shop for example anxiety
4:01
and confidence a very semblance. I
4:03
would probably alternate those hypnosis sessions
4:06
last while probably there. so one
4:08
day or one my out listen
4:10
to and anxiety in the the
4:12
next day or night or may
4:15
use the confidence once is it
4:17
was like confidence and weight loss
4:19
so that. They. Could be very
4:21
much connected. The less to say
4:23
it's them, more disconnected. Was
4:26
either like Jim motivation and consonants. Whatever
4:28
it is This if you could imagine
4:31
that that six on a separated than
4:33
I would probably use the session which
4:35
would have the biggest impact on the
4:38
other one. South you go well as
4:40
last out ready. confident myself I would
4:42
cause me to. Lose
4:46
weight because I'm not using it
4:48
as like food as a Sunday. Service
4:50
games them from my anxiety and confidence
4:52
in our choose the conference one us
4:55
and them. Once you've done that you
4:57
may notice the weight issue start to
4:59
disappear or the very least you've been
5:02
Just focus on that's a very similar
5:04
nature. You can also mates or even
5:06
it has like one day confidence, second
5:09
day confidence in the next they
5:11
anxiety and then to confidence and then
5:13
anxieties. That's fine as a very saturated
5:15
choose. The one which is gonna make
5:17
the biggest difference on the other one.
5:20
And yeah thing back when
5:23
our answers that question. Another
5:25
questions by had recently was
5:27
what's the difference between hypnosis
5:29
and meditation? In my opinion
5:32
they are very very different
5:34
but they are classified as
5:36
this as a similar, a
5:38
similar, a similiar or similar.
5:40
That's the was looking for
5:43
vehicle. So meditation.
5:46
Is a form of alarming
5:48
States Hypnosis is also a
5:50
lining states of mass what
5:52
they have in common but
5:55
they're an altered state of
5:57
awareness or lining state or
5:59
ads. There are
6:01
many different trounces. You've got the T
6:03
V. Trump's out there when your tune
6:05
into a T V and Sounds Hawkins
6:08
youth and you don't even lessons he
6:10
got the drive in France. When you
6:12
get from where you are to way
6:14
you want to be me of forget
6:16
how you ever got that's soon as
6:19
you different levels of Trump but if
6:21
we be very specific on meditation and
6:23
hypnosis meditation is more of. A
6:26
mindfulness an acquired and lessees
6:28
typically austerity if it makes.
6:30
It has lots of different
6:32
forms of meditations waltz, but
6:35
it's more of your own
6:37
conscious ability to absolve your
6:39
own thoughts to guess stillness.
6:41
so it's very much of
6:43
a sumptuous saying way you
6:45
are the pass and absolving
6:48
your thoughts hypnosis. On the
6:50
other hand, if you do
6:52
it ready powerfully is the
6:54
ability to bypass. Your conscious
6:56
mind and get to the unconscious
6:58
mind and that is where the
7:00
hypnotist comes into play. Where it
7:02
be through an audio like mine
7:05
within the app of you're seeing
7:07
someone in pass On where you're
7:09
going through some kind of crazy
7:11
cool module like my programs you.
7:13
Are. Almost like. A
7:17
bit of a passenger to the
7:19
expense your that but with directly
7:21
walk in with the unconscious mind
7:23
and that's where it's okay to
7:25
dressed and dream of your Mandel
7:27
meditation I sat is more of
7:29
like the the not thinking the
7:31
observation of thought to let a
7:33
guy while hypnosis is the opposite
7:36
way you can trust and dream
7:38
and still get the results. So
7:41
those are the real differences. They
7:43
are lining states both together they
7:45
alarming France's would.or level of trump's
7:47
that a different way of doing
7:49
it one is very conscious my
7:52
some do is very stereotypically with
7:54
enemies go too deep into s
7:56
I'm. was variations of
7:58
meditation and hitler I do
8:01
mine very different from many other
8:03
other hypnotists and hypnotherapists, but
8:05
if we take it as a generalization meditation
8:08
is more conscious observation of thoughts or
8:10
trying to do lack of it. So
8:13
you're consciously in control. Hypnosis is about
8:16
bypassing the conscious mind and meeting
8:18
an issue where it lives. In
8:20
my opinion you use
8:23
the meditation for mindfulness living,
8:28
Hypnosis more so to let go of
8:30
issues and get the life you want. If
8:32
I had a choice and I do, I
8:35
do the hypnosis, get my mind and body
8:37
clean and clear so I'm super self-certain
8:39
and then I can incorporate the
8:42
mindfulness from meditation because I still meditate,
8:44
I still do those things, but
8:47
I find it would be a lot harder if
8:49
I'm anxious. It's very hard to be able to
8:51
get into a state of meditation. If I'm always
8:53
self-conscious or irritable or stressed and
8:56
things it makes it very very
8:58
hard to do. So
9:01
that's why I like the hypnosis
9:03
on those things we don't need
9:05
and then it allows us to go and
9:08
be more mindful ultimately. So
9:11
hopefully that answers that question. Now
9:13
the question is how do you find the root cause
9:15
because that is something I talk about a lot. Most
9:18
of the time we focus on what we feel
9:22
the most or what we experience the
9:24
most and that
9:27
can be a bit of an issue. One of
9:29
the analogies me and my dad have is like
9:31
the person who walks in through the door of
9:34
like the therapy room or the hypnosis
9:36
session room is not
9:39
what you really treat. The
9:41
person who comes into that room is saying I've
9:43
got this this this and this and this and
9:45
this and this and this and this but
9:48
it's never really the real issue. Very
9:50
much like if you go to a
9:52
doctor you list out the symptoms, but
9:54
the doctor's probably not going to focus
9:56
on dealing with the
9:59
symptoms. they're gonna focus
10:01
that the symptoms will lead to
10:03
the root cause. That
10:05
way, you let go of
10:08
the root cause and therefore the symptoms
10:10
will disappear. My greatest analogy would be
10:12
you've got like headaches or throat, stomachaches,
10:15
pains, fever, shiver. Every time you eat
10:17
you feel bad. You can have a
10:19
pill for every single one of them
10:21
to hopefully just manage your state. Or
10:25
the good doctor will say,
10:27
Ha! I think you've got
10:29
a bacterial infection. Here's one pill of
10:31
antibiotics. Take that, rather all
10:33
these multiple pills just to manage and
10:36
therefore clear it up within
10:38
a week or so and then all
10:40
those symptoms will disappear. They are signals
10:42
to get you to say or unconsciously
10:45
to go, Look, something's wrong here, which
10:47
brings you to that specialist. And
10:49
that is what I'd highly recommend if you're
10:52
really struggling with the root cause. What
10:54
was someone who knows how to do it?
10:58
If I'm going to fix
11:02
something in my car and
11:04
I do it, it's probably
11:06
gonna go wrong. I probably want to go to
11:08
a very good mechanic who can actually deal with
11:10
that. So it's important
11:13
to work with a specialist usually if
11:15
you're having real trouble. I mean that's when
11:17
my program really solves the root cause issue.
11:20
We meet the issue where it lives, find the root
11:22
cause and let it go. So that's what
11:25
I really say. If you don't know it, spend
11:27
a lot of time trying to figure out yourself or even quicker, go
11:31
to someone who knows how to solve it. Just
11:34
how you'd go to school, just how you'd go
11:36
to college or university to
11:38
learn something. You do
11:41
this in every other area of your life and
11:43
we've got to do the exact same thing when
11:45
it comes to or
11:47
like going to a doctor, we do the same thing when it
11:49
comes to the mind as well. Okay,
11:51
another question that we've got. Why
11:53
do I dream more about my
11:55
issue when I'm asleep using
11:58
hypnosis or when I'm asleep? been
12:00
doing hypnosis. Some people
12:02
can go well that means it's not working
12:05
but contrary to that it
12:07
actually means hypnosis is working
12:09
not to say that you've
12:12
got to dream about your
12:14
issue to show that you've letting go
12:16
of the issue I'm not saying that at all
12:19
but some people have fears and worries for example
12:21
some people use the get
12:23
over my ex hypnosis session
12:26
and they go oh I've been dreaming about my
12:28
ex partner it's really annoying well
12:31
think about it that's your
12:33
unconscious mind trying to
12:36
process the conflict while
12:38
you're sleeping it's trying to resolve and dissolve
12:40
it shows that it's actually working it's just
12:42
trying to figure it out trying to integrate
12:45
it all so therefore you get
12:47
the freedom so persist with it
12:50
if you are not quite
12:53
happy with those dreams what I always suggest
12:55
is just before you go to sleep just
12:58
say speaking to my unconscious
13:00
mind I
13:02
want you to resolve this
13:04
conflict deep within the unconscious
13:06
whilst I sleep deeply too
13:09
I don't need to know about it
13:11
consciously just resolve it give me a
13:13
great sleep and therefore I
13:16
can wake up really really awesome that's
13:18
what I suggest if it if it's persisting
13:21
or you just don't like it send a
13:23
little intention have a little conversation with your
13:25
unconscious mind before you
13:28
listen to the sleep session or
13:30
hypnosis session for example that's
13:33
what I highly highly suggest now so
13:37
I think that answer that question we
13:39
dream more because your unconscious mind is
13:41
trying to walk through it rather repressing
13:43
it which it does try to do
13:45
it represses things it doesn't want to
13:47
walk on or it doesn't feel like
13:49
it's safe to do so it it
13:51
brings it up to the surface for
13:53
resolution so the fact that
13:55
we're dreaming about it it can be
13:57
a good sign we might not like
14:00
the effects of it, if it's not
14:02
a very nice dream to have, your
14:04
unconscious mind is trying to resolve it
14:06
on your behalf which means it's getting
14:08
the message and then if you
14:10
just have that little conversation with yourself, I'm sure
14:12
your unconscious mind go ah I now know just
14:14
do it beneath the surface. Another
14:18
question, how does hypnosis
14:20
help enhance the LOA which
14:22
is like the law of
14:24
attraction? So regardless what your
14:27
beliefs are like the universe or miracles
14:29
and all those things, I'll
14:33
answer the question the way that it was
14:35
said, how does it hypnosis help the law
14:38
of attraction? Truly
14:40
because you are sending
14:42
deep powerful messages, learnings
14:44
and integrations to your
14:46
unconscious mind. For example
14:48
if you want this
14:51
amount of money or
14:53
this great relationship but
14:56
you don't believe you're worthy at
14:58
an unconscious level, then no
15:01
matter what you put out into the
15:03
universe, no matter what you kind of
15:05
ask for, you're unconsciously
15:08
self-sabotaging it and since your unconscious
15:11
mind does the majority of all
15:14
beliefs, all values, all
15:16
our past experiences, it's
15:18
going to be a huge issue but imagine
15:21
if you could tap into this
15:24
super powerful manifesto,
15:26
generator, even if you just go
15:28
via biology and forget about the
15:30
law of attraction where
15:32
you get your mind, your
15:34
unconscious mind to get
15:37
the empowering belief systems that
15:39
you are worthy deserving enough
15:41
and it focuses with 100%
15:45
congruency and alignment to
15:47
that desire, you
15:49
will get there in quick like lightning
15:52
speed so hypnosis
15:54
will enhance any goal,
15:57
dream that you have by undoing
15:59
the list limiting beliefs to
16:01
get congruency and alignment that will
16:03
then make you like, like I
16:05
said, it's like a superpower
16:09
almost. It's like you are
16:11
just on deep alignment, congruent
16:13
to achieve whatever that goal and outcome is.
16:15
Where do you save a law of attraction?
16:18
Where do you just go through biology? Whatever
16:21
your brain focuses on, which is the
16:23
rectangular activating system of the brain, it
16:26
will seek out more of the same. So if
16:28
you're an anxious person, you don't believe you're worthy,
16:30
deserving enough, your unconscious mind
16:32
is going to seek more of
16:34
the same. If you undo all
16:36
that, send the powerful identity, the
16:38
immense self value for why we
16:40
should be achieving that. Get
16:43
the necessary resources, your
16:45
unconscious mind will then have the
16:47
congruency and alignment to get that
16:50
outcome. So
16:52
hopefully that answers the
16:54
question of absolutely, it
16:57
will help enhance the law of
16:59
attraction or just the biology of
17:01
how the brain actually works.
17:05
Another question and it is
17:07
about the depth of trance. Like
17:10
there's, I'm breaking this down a little
17:12
bit because there's expectation of what
17:14
trance and hypnosis is. Most
17:17
people think hypnosis has got to be
17:19
deep asleep, like you're out, like a
17:21
stage hypnotist, out for the
17:23
count, three, two, one, sleep and all those things. All
17:26
that stuff is true by the way. Like
17:28
I've done stage hypnosis, of course it works,
17:30
it's something that I find fascinating. But
17:33
with that in mind, it
17:37
created the expectation, even in
17:39
media, movies, TV shows, all
17:41
of those things that you have to be,
17:44
click your fingers, you're out and
17:46
you're deep asleep. Totally not
17:48
true. I find some
17:51
of the lightest hypnotic trances
17:53
where I do zero hypnotic
17:56
induction. I have one
17:58
process within my program. And it
18:01
can let go of most of
18:03
the issue within 60 minutes
18:06
yet as a preparation before that But
18:08
it can be in the lightest trance
18:10
and give you the most undeniable
18:13
experience a Physiological experience
18:15
that gets your unconscious mind to
18:17
know the problem has gone That's
18:20
how powerful it is and that is
18:22
in the lightest trance So
18:24
where do you drift and dream wherever you do
18:26
fall asleep? Because you're so
18:28
like you're laying down you're listening to
18:31
before bed So you're expected to fall
18:33
asleep through the unconscious associations and conscious
18:35
associations of going to sleep Whether
18:38
you be in a very light trance
18:40
wherever you're thinking of the groceries. I've
18:42
got to do the the
18:44
the children the The
18:47
work tasks I've got to do Remember
18:50
going back to that question of meditation
18:52
and hypnosis. It's less about
18:54
the conscious mind. It's about the unconscious
18:57
so bypassing it in
18:59
a deep trance or maybe a Very
19:03
light trance it still works.
19:05
So set up your expectations
19:08
as one as I'm
19:10
just gonna trust the process. I'm gonna try
19:12
to think less of myself Consciously
19:15
in this experience other than the
19:17
desire, but I absolutely want to
19:19
let go of the problem I'm
19:21
a hundred percent ready to let
19:23
go of the conflict That's
19:25
what I'm after from you And
19:27
then we leave it up to your
19:29
great powerful best friend the unconscious mind
19:31
to be able to do that Now
19:34
go another cool question of a slight Changing
19:39
topic which is how do you see
19:41
the podcast and the app progressing? Because
19:45
I have jokingly said in the past
19:47
about getting that to a thousand episodes.
19:49
We're like Or
19:54
so away to getting a thousand. I'm
19:57
not gonna quit the podcast enough said that once we
19:59
get thousand I'm done as a joke. But
20:03
I'm gonna keep going. As
20:05
long as people's lesson and
20:08
people and that I enjoy it. Same
20:11
thing with live streaming with this
20:13
is being live streamed on youtube.com/Joseph
20:15
Cluff. I will keep doing it
20:17
if I'm enjoying it and people are enjoying it
20:19
too and getting value from my work. Sometimes
20:22
I may mix things up. Sometimes I'm
20:24
gonna have to enhance things. Sometimes
20:27
I've got to change things because I've
20:29
got to make sure it's efficient and
20:31
it's as a lot of you may know a
20:33
lot of my other
20:36
work feeds the app. I
20:39
invest a lot in the time and the
20:41
energy in the enhancements of the app for
20:43
my other business almost
20:45
like I want to help as many people as
20:47
possible for free or from the app when you
20:49
just paid like four or
20:52
five dollars per month or half the price at
20:54
just like thirty dollars or so to get unlimited
20:56
access to the app. I want to
20:58
try to keep it as affordable as possible compared
21:00
to anyone else there. Any
21:03
other hypnosis app or any other program similar when
21:05
it comes to the app itself. I just want
21:07
to keep on helping people. So
21:09
where do I see it going? Bigger, better, bolder
21:11
and just
21:15
more of it. Just more of it. I'm
21:17
doing bonus hypnosis sessions on those who are
21:19
subscribers. Four hour sleep sessions.
21:21
I'm actually dedicating a whole day of
21:23
my week in creating
21:27
new hypnosis sessions for those who
21:29
are part of the app. From
21:32
the four hours of the sleep to the
21:34
day. I'm really putting more of my
21:36
my day into
21:39
the app. So I just see things getting
21:41
bigger and better and I'm
21:43
gonna go to another question because it's
21:47
similar so I'm going down the list of how
21:50
can I help you grow your work and that
21:52
was from my Instagram message the other day. Ultimately
21:55
look if you want to support me on my journey
21:57
the best thing to do is get the app. a
22:00
subscription because then we can keep
22:02
on growing and growing and growing, leaving
22:05
a review just because
22:07
many people don't leave reviews.
22:09
Unless the people leave reviews
22:11
in general like restaurants or
22:13
hotels or airplanes when
22:15
usually when something wrong or bad has
22:18
happened, right? That's when we really start
22:20
when we become complainers. That's
22:22
when we usually leave a review
22:25
typically. The other problem
22:27
is with self-development and
22:29
hypnosis is the sensitive subject. Sometimes
22:31
we don't feel like saying this
22:34
helped me in the fear. That
22:37
can get in the way. Even if you have
22:39
a different username on YouTube or leaving a review
22:41
on the app, we've got
22:43
that unconscious psychology of we
22:46
only leave reviews when we're upset
22:49
or we don't
22:52
like to share because it might make me
22:54
feel weaker admitting that I've had an issue
22:56
of anxiety and confidence and things like that.
22:59
Even if you've got usernames, it's just that
23:01
unconscious thing. Getting the
23:04
app, reviewing the app, going to
23:06
YouTube, subscribing, leave a comment, hit the thumbs
23:08
up, those kind of things and just sharing
23:10
with your friends and family. You don't have
23:12
to say that you used the app when
23:14
you're talking to your friends. You could just
23:16
say, I know this app
23:18
really, really works. You don't have to say
23:21
that you used it and all those things if you
23:23
want to be more protected. What
23:25
I find fascinating is a lot of people
23:27
who have... Sorry, I just hit
23:29
my mic twice in. It's a live show. Actually,
23:32
in a minute. I know it
23:34
creates noise, so I do apologize. I
23:38
know people who have shared the app
23:40
to one person. There's
23:43
multiple terms where it's made a
23:45
huge, huge transformation in
23:47
their life when they were on the
23:49
edge of bad decisions. That
23:52
one person who shared the app
23:54
caused that person to make
23:56
a huge change. In fact, on this live
23:59
stream, it was... really fun because someone
24:01
said that my sister introduced me to your
24:03
work and then the sister appeared
24:07
on the chat as well. So it's really amazing that
24:09
we get to share this stuff. That's the liberating thing.
24:11
So really that's the best
24:13
way to help me on my journey,
24:15
leave a review, get a subscription, share
24:18
with people and that means we can make
24:20
the world a better place
24:22
than we came into
24:24
the world. That's my dream.
24:26
That's my vision. So that's the
24:28
slight one we're going there.
24:30
Related question. Okay. It
24:33
is a really good question because it's going
24:35
to alleviate some fears and that's the relation
24:37
between hypnosis and religion. Some
24:40
people in the past, and Israelites are
24:43
really good questions, some people have reached out
24:45
to me and I've even seen things about
24:47
this online where they think hypnosis is something
24:49
different. Where, and with
24:51
good reason, good intentions, where they
24:53
think hypnosis is actually negative
24:56
when it comes to being religious. And it
24:58
depends what religion we're talking about. And
25:01
same thing, some religions don't like
25:03
yoga. We're really, it's a great
25:05
meditative tool for stretching and mobility
25:07
and all those types of things.
25:09
So there could be this misconception,
25:11
a bit like stage hypnosis, whether
25:14
it's when focusing on ourselves
25:16
or not God, for example, or if
25:18
we're in a distrance, are we being
25:20
manipulated? So these are warranted
25:23
fears and anxieties to have, but
25:25
it's about having a conversation about
25:27
these. Hypnosis,
25:30
I believe if you are religious, we'll bring
25:32
you closer to God because you
25:34
are becoming whole and you're making
25:36
a decision to let go of
25:38
your limiting beliefs for experiences and
25:41
you're tuning in to your unconscious
25:43
to get that love, to be
25:45
connected with God. If you're a
25:47
faith, that's what I really know
25:49
to be true. But don't
25:52
just take my word for it in
25:54
terms of experiences of how it will
25:56
happen or how it happens. Even
25:59
I believe. I believe the Pope has said
26:01
that we
26:05
recommend hypnosis to form issues. Like
26:08
not just here, there, and everywhere, but for
26:10
certain issues, it's actually recommended. So
26:13
it depends on where you are, what you're
26:15
doing, and what your expectations are. But
26:18
really, hypnosis is about undoing
26:20
bad trances. Think about
26:23
it like that. We think
26:25
of hypnosis being in this trance, we're
26:27
being manipulated, if you had that thought
26:29
about religion, or even beyond religion really,
26:32
we're undoing bad trances. And how
26:34
we undoing? Because we've been told
26:36
things through experience, and what our
26:38
father and mother, what our teacher
26:40
said, or that bad relationship we
26:42
had, those hypnosis,
26:44
or hypnotic spells, you could
26:47
say, or these suggestions
26:49
that you've taken on. And
26:51
really, really even, we're undoing
26:54
that. Undoing those
26:56
bad spells and trances of
26:58
other people's suggestions. And
27:00
that to me is an amazing thing. I
27:03
would hate for someone to go, I'm
27:06
not gonna use this therapeutic change because
27:08
of a misconception. Really, do
27:10
the research, look into it, it actually creates
27:12
more wholeness. And I think if we're more
27:14
whole, and even if you
27:17
align with the intention
27:19
that you're doing this to get closer
27:21
to God, that's just gonna boost
27:23
things. In my opinion. So,
27:27
hope that answers that question.
27:30
Let's go to Sue from Oz. Oh,
27:33
it is an interesting one that I've been
27:36
asked before. Why do I not talk? Because
27:38
it's very similar. Why do I not talk
27:40
about my own personal faith, or religion, or
27:42
if I'm an atheist, or fill in the
27:45
blank. One of the
27:47
reasons why I don't, is I do not
27:49
want people to judge
27:52
me on what I believe,
27:54
and then that have an effect on the
27:56
real help of getting my work out there,
27:59
and helping us. many people. So
28:02
I've got an interview coming
28:04
up, it'll be on
28:06
the podcast soon, about coming out
28:08
tomorrow where the person I'm
28:10
interviewing is of faith. And
28:12
I bring it up in that moment, I don't really
28:15
talk about that much because I don't want to like
28:17
impose upon anything. But
28:19
talking to him about his faith, I'm all
28:21
about it, right? Like, because that's a part
28:23
of his journey and process. I'm not against
28:26
anything. I'm not saying I'm this, that or
28:28
the other. Sometimes I will say
28:30
my personal truth, I don't go into the context
28:32
of things, I go, look, I believe in love.
28:36
That's my main thing, like wholeness and
28:38
self worth and love and the interconnection
28:40
of things, but I don't really go into
28:42
specifics. So I share a little bit, but
28:44
I don't want to just impose or appeal
28:47
to make judgments based on something. Let's just
28:49
say, which I'm actually not an atheist. But
28:51
if I said, look, I'm an atheist, and
28:54
someone who is religious,
28:57
I'm doing generalizations here. But
29:01
someone might go, well, I do not want
29:03
to listen to this person's work because they're
29:05
an atheist, despite maybe the intention, the work
29:07
itself is going to transform that person. So
29:09
I just try to get out my own
29:11
way. I know I talk
29:13
about myself in these episodes
29:16
and sessions, because it is
29:18
important. But I don't always
29:20
want to go and impart things just
29:22
because it just keeps it cleaner, happier
29:24
and open for all because it should
29:26
be open for all faiths, all religions,
29:28
all atheists, all those types of different
29:31
ways of seeing the world as
29:33
self discovery. And that's what
29:35
I'm really about. Okay,
29:38
so that's one of the main questions
29:40
on the beforehand. So I'm going to
29:42
go back to some of the ones
29:44
which was said on the
29:47
live show itself. So
29:49
we've got how did
29:52
your dad get into hypnosis? Right.
29:55
Good question. He
29:57
actually did it for probably not the
29:59
best in the world. Intentions and
30:01
I can say that because he says it as
30:03
well when we've done trainings together and things like
30:05
that See my dad
30:08
was wanting to learn say
30:11
NLP and hypnosis not
30:13
necessarily to manipulate but to be able to
30:16
communicate and a bit of like
30:18
trying to win conversations ultimately because
30:21
he would be in business and
30:23
Negotiations with contracts and we're
30:26
talking about Multi-million pound
30:28
contracts of the business that he worked
30:30
for so his job had a
30:32
lot of needing communication So
30:35
he wanted just enhance his communication and
30:38
then when he went on the
30:40
course He realized actually there's so
30:42
much more to using language and
30:44
he fell in love with helping
30:46
people as well And
30:48
I'm gonna be doing an episode of
30:50
a next episode in fact About
30:53
a bit of my dad and my journey, so
30:55
I'll go deeper into it there, but that's how
30:58
we got into it Trying
31:00
to learn it for hip for business and
31:03
then Along the way finding
31:05
out he actually wants to help people and
31:07
that's where we've done trainings Together
31:11
in England we've been to Israel
31:14
with helping people who've had traumas
31:16
teaching therapists who are walking people
31:18
of traumas then a
31:22
ton of things like that and I think
31:24
that's amazing so it's Interesting you can go
31:26
into one thing a bit like there's what
31:28
my symptom is Oh, but there's a real
31:30
core issue same thing We can go into
31:32
a one thing and then go actually there's
31:34
so much more to discover so
31:38
Hopefully that helps Got
31:41
a question here my question is how do I
31:43
stop my mind racing and distracting me when I'm
31:45
trying to listen to the hypnosis sessions In
31:49
my opinion what I would consider this one is
31:53
Intention and preparation Preparation
31:55
try to set yourself up for
31:58
success by having a
32:00
bit of a ritual before you go and
32:02
listen. So you could
32:05
take a moment, think about what
32:07
you want or have the place that you're
32:11
listening to the hypnosis session and make sure it's
32:14
nice. Maybe for some people it might be incense.
32:16
It could be putting a candle on. It could
32:19
be easing into playing some nice
32:22
relaxing music. So what we're doing
32:24
is we're taking a self from
32:26
this crazy fast action-packed social media,
32:29
work situation, family life, hundred
32:32
mile an hour thinking and
32:34
slowing things down to
32:37
prepare yourself. So it
32:39
could be like even having a shower
32:41
or a bath if you're having all these distracting
32:44
thoughts. Just to ease
32:46
in, to slow down. It could be having a nice
32:48
cup of tea. Whatever your thing is, ease
32:52
yourself into it and then a bit
32:55
like one of the previous questions which
32:57
is setting
32:59
the intentions, talking to your unconscious mind
33:02
before listening to the session. And
33:04
that was regarding like the dreams. If
33:08
you're dreaming about the issue, you go, speed to my
33:11
unconscious mind. I want you to resolve the
33:13
issue without me being consciously aware of it
33:16
and allow me to sleep deeply. Same similar
33:18
thing before you listen to a session, having
33:21
had that bit of preparation of relaxing
33:23
and slowing down so you're not going from
33:25
this to that. You
33:27
also say to your unconscious mind, I
33:30
want this to be a beautiful experience
33:32
where I get to relax and learn.
33:34
So help me with that while we
33:36
do listen to this session or
33:38
modify it based on how
33:41
you would like to feel. Not what you don't want to
33:43
think. So you wouldn't really
33:45
go, it's okay using negative words, but I
33:47
did want to even it out or have
33:49
positives as a
33:52
main, but you wouldn't go
33:54
to run content. I don't want to feel anxiety. I
33:56
don't want to feel distracting thoughts. I
33:58
don't. I
34:00
don't want this happening
34:03
in my mind, I don't want this anxiety. Just
34:05
try to do it the positive. I want you,
34:07
the unconscious mind, to help me have the most
34:09
calming, relaxing, enlightening,
34:13
beautiful experience while
34:15
I listen to this hypnosis session. That
34:18
little signal, that intention, is gonna
34:20
really help your unconscious mind. So
34:24
there we go on that one. Do
34:29
you consider talk therapy to be effective
34:31
hypnotherapy for change? I think
34:33
you discussed this before, but can't remember. So,
34:36
number one, I don't like
34:38
throwing rocks at other people's
34:41
therapeutic models of change.
34:45
I'll just say what I enjoy and I
34:47
think is, I mean, I
34:50
do what I do because I know that
34:52
it works. Many other
34:54
therapies out there, beyond talk therapy, they
34:56
do what they do because they believe
34:58
that it works. My
35:00
opinion is, if you
35:03
have been talking about it, and it's still
35:05
not shifting, so if it's shifted, you went
35:07
to a talk therapist and it's shifted and
35:09
it works, great, nothing
35:13
else matters. We got the outcome and that
35:15
is why I wanted all holistic therapies to
35:18
work together, ideally. But
35:20
if it's not shifted after weeks,
35:23
months, or even years, I've wanted people to
35:25
have decades of talking therapy, like two, three
35:27
times per week. There was one lady who'd
35:30
been doing it for like two decades and
35:32
no change happened. They knew more about the
35:34
issue than ever before, but they
35:36
still had the issue. Then they worked with me
35:39
for three or four sessions and the whole problem
35:41
disappeared. I'm not saying because
35:43
talk therapy didn't work and hypnosis did in
35:45
that case, sometimes it's different people
35:47
with different things. You don't need to know
35:49
everything about the problem. You just
35:51
need to resolve the root unconscious course
35:53
in my opinion. So I
35:56
do it because that's my way, but I have
35:58
a great love and respect for anyone. who
36:00
wants to help other people and if
36:02
it's getting results then great. Only if
36:04
it's not do we think... We
36:07
can make a couple of judgments.
36:10
One, is the person I'm working
36:12
with getting the
36:14
result? Like, is it based on them? Number
36:17
two, is it the
36:19
vehicle which would be talk therapy, hypnosis,
36:21
fill in the blank, other
36:23
therapy? And number three, do I really want
36:25
to change? If you really want to change,
36:27
you find a really good person and you
36:30
find the perfect vehicle
36:32
for change, great. That's
36:35
my kind of criteria. So,
36:38
that should have answered that question. I'm all open for
36:40
all things as long as they get results. If they're
36:43
not getting results, go and do the thing which will
36:46
get the good results. I like to think
36:48
it's unconscious and that's why... Oh,
36:50
I do more than just hypnosis by the
36:53
way. I do lots of really wonderful things
36:55
in my program. But
36:57
I do think all things are effective if they're
36:59
working which is a bit of obvious
37:01
one right there. Okay,
37:04
so let's see if I've got any
37:06
more to bear
37:08
with me here. So, do
37:11
you have a specific sugar or craving
37:13
sessions? My last vice I'm working on...
37:16
Oh, I'll bring it on the screen. My
37:18
last vice I'm working on. Got rid
37:20
of alcohol, all the junk. Last one,
37:22
big. Last big one to go. I
37:25
actually have a sugar
37:27
addiction hypnosis session in the
37:29
app. So, I
37:31
would definitely look up sugar
37:33
addiction in the main hypnosis library and it
37:35
will be there in day and night form.
37:38
If you go on the app, you'll also probably
37:40
see other ones which would be helpful. But yes,
37:42
I have a specific one for that. So,
37:45
I actually have this question as well which is going
37:47
to answer soon. But we'll bring it up on screen.
37:51
For those listening, I'm doing this live. Question
37:54
is, I saw past life for hypnosis online,
37:56
but is it safe to try alone? And
38:00
also the other question I had is, what's
38:03
all that about? Like, is it true? Is
38:05
it real? Number one, I
38:08
have both opinions. I've
38:10
read, I remember when I was 18 years old, my
38:13
very first training, one of the very first
38:15
books I brought was on life regression. Using
38:19
hypnosis. And it was
38:21
very much study based, where they did lots and
38:23
lots of studies and they were able to focus
38:27
down on certain areas and time periods
38:29
and names without that person, unless they're
38:32
a fraudster, not knowing that. And
38:34
some of these were children as well. Even
38:36
things, weird things like birthmarks where they actually
38:38
had an injury in the so-called, I'm not
38:41
gonna say if it's true or real or
38:43
not, because I don't know. But
38:47
lots of studies with some good
38:49
evidence, but not complete evidence, so
38:51
therefore it cannot be totally true.
38:54
Then on the other hand, let's say you're not
38:56
against it, and I'll answer that other question in
38:58
a moment, is that
39:02
maybe all past
39:04
life regression is a metaphor. What
39:09
do I mean by that? Let's
39:12
say you've gone through stuff, big
39:14
stuff, or maybe the answer
39:17
is so obvious that if the unconscious
39:19
mind told you the answer, you'd just
39:21
disregard it. Therefore,
39:25
your unconscious mind has to come up with
39:27
another way to be able
39:30
to get the insight, the epiphany
39:32
for you to know consciously. So maybe
39:34
it creates this metaphor
39:36
of a past life that
39:38
you can get to learn from, because
39:41
metaphors work and they're very much unconscious.
39:43
Every childhood book, every
39:45
TV show, every Pinocchio
39:48
and all those different things growing
39:51
up we listen to, they had messages and
39:53
meanings, not to lie or
39:55
Pinocchio or any other one. There's
39:57
these messages here. If you said,
39:59
don't. lie, you're going to probably lie. But
40:01
the fact that it was painted up in this story,
40:04
then you are able to
40:06
assume it because you step into
40:08
that metaphor. So whether they're
40:11
real or not, based on lots of
40:13
studies, you could say yes, but not fully.
40:16
Or maybe it's just a metaphor
40:18
from your unconscious mind that once
40:20
you get, because you're now dissociated
40:22
from it, it'll allow it to work.
40:25
But going back to that, the
40:27
other question of, let's
40:29
just see, I'm going to get back on my screen
40:32
and so I can read it out for the podcast.
40:35
Is some past life regression hypnosis
40:37
online or source them, but is it
40:39
safe to try it alone? It's
40:43
a bit hard to say, honestly, because
40:46
sometimes if you're unconscious mind, once
40:49
again, you could set up the intention, make
40:51
those other two questions. But
40:53
if you have worries or doubts, then maybe
40:55
just not, maybe work with a professional or
40:57
you think if you're into that past life,
41:00
like I said, making zero judgment on both
41:02
sides of the equation. I'd
41:04
probably work with someone in that case. I'd probably
41:07
work with someone so they can hold the space,
41:09
they can guide you because therefore
41:11
they can ask open
41:15
ended questions, which
41:18
are not directed. That's the
41:20
key for questioning. Questioning
41:23
anything, like you want to be able to get
41:25
them to come up with the answer. So that's
41:27
when you're in the moment, they can ask those
41:29
questions rather on a hypnosis
41:31
audio, then you're just going by what
41:33
you're going by in those questions. And
41:35
I don't think that's going to be
41:37
the most appropriate, even just in efficiency
41:40
times. In my opinion, I'd probably
41:42
find someone. I've
41:45
got a question here. I'm curious. I have
41:48
a hearing impairment impairment. When I
41:50
do the sleep sessions, I'm not wearing
41:52
a hearing device is the session as
41:54
effective. I
41:57
would say is a
41:59
tricky. want to answer, I don't know all
42:01
the information but I'm gonna say absolutely still
42:04
though, yes it
42:06
is going to be listening, it's gonna be
42:08
absorbing. Sometimes
42:10
you have to modify things, sometimes you might want
42:13
to use one of those sleep phones that you
42:15
listen to as you go to like it's a
42:17
little band and that means you can sleep comfortably.
42:19
If you like check out
42:21
cozy phones I'm unaffiliated with them but
42:23
I've recommended people to them and
42:26
that means it can be a little
42:28
bit better. So I would be curious
42:31
and test it out. Your
42:34
unconscious mind will keep the... I
42:39
really believe it will absorb it, sometimes we've
42:41
got to just turn
42:45
things up or modify things like that.
42:49
So that was all the
42:51
questions, oh my goodness that was a
42:54
marathon of great questions. So
42:56
