Have you heard about It Gets Better? I wrote yesterday about childhood obesity, social isolation and I mentioned bullying. Perhaps you have been hearing about the It Gets Better campaign to put an end to bullying. I hadn’t realized how impacted I have been by the death of Jamie Rodemeyer. Jamie was only 14 when he committed suicide as a result of social isolation and bullying. Jamie was gay and had recently come out to his family and friends. Each of us are different and each of us has our own stuff. Bullying is simply someone who feels so badly about themselves that they have to pick on someone else in an attempt to feel better. Self-hypnosis is one tool that should be taught to our young children and throughout the school age years to help them feel better about themselves. With hypnosis you can increase your self-esteem and feel good about you. Learn to love yourself so that you can love others.

Jamie Rodemeyer

No matter what your stuff is, overweight, gay, straight, male, female, too tall, too short, bald, redhead, too old, too young, not smart enough ….. you still can love yourself and you can still the love the people, animals and world around you. Self-hypnosis can help you love yourself so that you have the compassion to share with others.

What is the It Gets Better Project?

In September 2010, syndicated columnist and author Dan Savage created a YouTube video with his partner Terry to inspire hope for young people facing harassment. In response to a number of students taking their own lives after being bullied in school, they wanted to create a personal way for supporters everywhere to tell LGBT youth that, yes, it does indeed get better.

Happy people create their own reality.

It doesn’t matter how long we may have been stuck in a sense of our limitations. If we go into a darkened room and turn on the light, it doesn’t matter if the room has been dark for a day, a week, or ten thousand years — we turn on the light and it is illuminated. Once we control our capacity for love and happiness, the light has been turned on. ~ Sharon Salzberg

Happiness does boost your immune system and you can choose to be sad or happy. Learn hypnosis and discover how you can control your capacity for love and happiness. With self-hypnosis you really can change your life and change your reality. BE HAPPY!

Home To Myself by Frankie Waldo Perez

Hi,

In my psychotherapy practice, my heart breaks every time someone tells me that they are their own worst enemy, or that they sabotage or beat themselves up constantly; and this painful admission happens too often. Self-criticism and condemnation have become part of the human condition.

We have learned to judge ourselves with the unforgiving precision of a sniper. No outside force could ever have the sheer stamina to bring about such relentless abuse. We carry with us the negative messages we heard during our childhood and have internalized those voices with such cruel efficiency that we are now the ones perpetuating the self-abuse on a near constant basis. We tell ourselves lies that berate, undermine, and break us down.

Research has shown that up to 77% of our self-talk is negative. That is forty-six minutes out of every hour. Further research indicates that it takes five positive statements to counteract every negative one. It may seem hopeless and insurmountable to ever gain the upper hand over the onslaught of our self-criticism.

Yet, there is a powerful and sure answer: self-acceptance.

With love,

Frankie

Imagination is your perception of or orientation to the world. Is your glass half full or is it half empty? Are you cheerful and excited about life and living life to the fullest, or are you fearful, filled with anxiety and imagining the worst? Imagination is not about truth. It’s just a perception. Once a perception is installed in the subconscious mind, the subconscious mind accepts it as fact and makes it so! Imagination is your perception of the world. It is your identity. This perception is a point of reference that determines your direction. If you imagine the world as fearful and filled with anxiety, you will experience fear and anxiety. If your perception of yourself is that of a fat person, you will be fat. If you believe that you are not good enough, you will live your life as not good enough. Consciously, you may set a goal to lose weight or to improve your self-esteem. But if you don’t believe you can be slender, if you don’t believe you are already good enough, you will never achieve your weight loss and self-esteem goals. All the willpower in the world will get you nowhere.

Real change occurs when the old perceptions in the subconscious mind are changed to match those of the conscious mind.
