Dear Mike "Does that mean (when you say 'you thought about it') that you considered bending the truth slightly to suit your argument." No. That inference is...
Dear Jon I agree. Dear Everyone Else A lot of tosh is said about the 'hypnotic voice'. Hypnotism doesn't require a good enough voice to make it work. It ...
Hi Barry ... The inference is mine, the words are yours. Own up Barry, you were wrong (with what you wrote), it will surprise you how liberating it is. ... You...
Thank god for that,my scouse accent doesnt effect me then!.... (cant help thinking that someone is about to return a mail with the words wallet or car keys in...
Dear Mike Can I ask you to try to accept what I say about what I said, because I know, rather than keep insisting that your version of what I meant is correct,...
Dear Alan I thought scouse was a meat and veg stew. How does anyone speak with a stew accent? Do you talk a lot of dumplings? I wonder if they talk in a...
Dear All A lot of theory gets run through these groups. The following are two e-mails I received this evening from a patient I saw this morning. I've changed...
nice try barry but i would dump this one !...scouse has never been associated with dumplings !!...bye the way ,have you never associated/referred to a...
Hi Barry ... You can ask anything you like. ... meant ... Well, you would say that wouldn't you. ... But, YOU said 'you thought about it'. ... I know, but, YOU...
Hi Just to let you know ,i like "getting away with it " ! Depends on the IT mind. Mind you i also like Mars bars,chips and Macdonalds so iam on the governments...
Hi Steve. ... Everyone will and does (even Barry) choose their own IT. And thats how it should be. Whether I approve of your IT, or you of mine is immaterial. ...
Hi Barry ... Fair enough. Anyway, I think we have exhausted this topic. Moving on (as Hank Snow would say), do you have any thoughts on the above subject line?...
... I didn't smile, couldn't understand it! ... Why do you think that Mike? Apart from having a loosely similar stance on hypnosis, and I do mean loose, Barry...
... Sorry Mike but I don't admire the Israelis and British and Americans getting away with it - being legalised terrorism. I don't admire the fact the majority...
Hi Jon ... it. My ... long ... Americans getting ... Jon, I am not suggesting that the above is the IT that you would admire. But then you know that. You are...
Hi Jenny ... Does the brain know the difference between imagined experiences and the real thing. I realise my question is a bit simplistic (like Moi). Thanks,...
Dear Mike There's a distinction to be made between subjective and objective reality. Everyone has their own subjective reality based largely on their own ...
Hi Barry ... Have you any thoughts on the basketball experiment. Apparently, a team was diveded into 3 groups. Group 1, spent a week practising hoops. Group 2,...
Dear Mike I posted the following in another Group on August 28 2004 ________________________________________ I hope you won't mind but I'm going to postpone...
Dear Jon That aside from all the arcane discussion of theory, hypnotism does get used to good effect. It surprises me that practitioners don't post more about...
... Maybe myth Barry but no less significant for that. In 1938 the nationalist party in Germany perpetrated many such myths which changed the belief and intent...
Dear Jon I agree myths have their place in hypnotism. I think what Mike was asking, however, was whether I thought the basketball experiment showed that...
Hi Mike, ... In my opinion, NO. The mind does normally create a 'tag' on memories, identifying what it believes is reality. But I don't think it has an...
Dear All I just had a leaflet popped through my letterbox telling me that I could quit smoking in one hour through a combination of hypnosis and NLP, so I rang...
... The brain doesn't know anything. Descartes was attempting to prove the existence of God, if I recall correctly. I think his argument was fallacious....
