TAKING THE FEAR OUT OF THE HYPNOTIC TRANCE

TAKING THE FEAR OUT OF THE HYPNOTIC TRANCE
 by: Christine Hunter

Mention the word "Hypnosis" to someone and the chances are you will get one of three very different reactions: intense curiosity, nervousness, or disdainful skepticism. But the truth is hypnosis is widely used today not just in medicine but also by top sports performers, business experts, and those in the media to boost their performance and mental focus. Despite this, many members of the public still view hypnosis with fear and suspicion especially when the hypnotist talks about putting the client into a "Hypnotic Trance"
The first point to make is that, despite the origin of its name, hypnosis does not involve sleep. When a person is in a hypnotic trance, the body may be in a very relaxed state, but the mind is alert and highly focused. It is also a very natural state. All of us experience a trancelike state many times in our daily lives. Those of us who drive cars are very familiar with the phenomenon of driving along a well known route and arriving at our destination-and then being aware that we can't remember the journey at all. It is as if we were on autopilot for the journey, and in a sense we were. We were in what we refer to as a kind of trance.
The same can occur when we are engrossed in a movie, reading a book, listening to music, or gazing into the eyes of someone we love. Time seems to stand still and we are oblivious of the outside world, our attention completely focused on what we are doing at that moment. That to can be described as a trance. Many people also consider a trance to be the state achieved in mediation or when we are daydreaming.
The key difference between those described above and the hypnotic trance is that during a hypnotic trance there is another person – the hypnotist – who is guiding us into the state.
During a trance, the aim of the hypnotist is to talk directly to the patient's unconscious mind. The conscious mind can act as a barrier to this communication, and so it is either distracted or encouraged to be still.
Once the hypnotist has ensured that the client is in the desired hypnotic trance the hypnotist then make suggestions to the subject. These suggestions are the triggers that aim to change people's habits, boost their confidence, or help them come to terms with their past. Such suggestions are made not to our conscious mind, but to our unconscious mind, the part of the mind that controls so much of our lives.
Ask many people how they think the hypnotic trance is achieved and they will describe the hypnotist slowly swinging a watch on a chain in front of a patients eyes or the hypnotist stares into a person's eye's to put him or her into the trance. While these were once a common method of inducing trance, hypnotists now often rely just on words and guided imagery.
Once the healing suggestions have been made an the purpose of the trance has been accomplished, the final task of the hypnotist is to bring the subject out of the hypnotic state and back into ordinary consciousness.
A common technique is for the hypnotist to count from one to five giving positive suggestions along the way. As he or she counts up from one to five, the client will feel as if he or she is coming out of trance into waking consciousness. The aim is to make the transition as smooth as possible.
Though hypnosis is not the same as sleep. Many people report feeling refreshed and enjoying a general sense of well-being after coming out of a hypnotic trance. Others claim that they sleep better after a session of hypnosis.

Know All about "Power Push Ups"

Know All about "Power Push Ups"
 by: Venkata Ramana

Push ups are the most convenient way to build up your chest, shoulders, arms and upper back. It can be performed at any place, and you don’t need to carry your gym with you wherever you go.
Do you know that most of the men who train with weights cannot do single handstand pushups? When I first found this out I was stunned.
A few Things to keep in mind:
Ш Always keep your hands slightly wider than shoulder width apart, with fingers together and pointing straight ahead.
Ш If you have ever had any shoulder pain, stick to the 90-degree limit. Deeper push ups can stretch the shoulder capsule and put strain on the joint. This can cause pain.
Ш Start in the upper position with your arms straight.
Ш Inhale as you lower yourself towards the floor.
Ш Don’t go lower than forming a 90-degree bend with your elbows.
Ш Exhale as you push yourself up from the floor.
Ш Don’t lock your elbows at the top.
Ш Your back should be straight. Don’t let it sag and don’t stick your butt up in the air.

Sweat can clog skin pores and lead to breakouts all over. Other things that can cause body acne are tight fitting clothing ( It traps sweat against the skin, leading to clogged pores and blemishes) stress and hormones. Body acne commonly pops up on the chest and back.
Ш To zap body acne and prevent it from coming back, you can wash your body daily with a salicylic acid based cleanser. Look for this ingredient on product labels.
Ш Shower daily and be sure to shower as soon as possible anytime you have been sweating – such as after playing sports, working outside or just being in the sun. After your shower, you can follow up by a body moisturizer that contains Alfa Hydroxy acid. This will exfoliate skin and help prevent breakouts, without drying skin out.

All You Wanted To Know About Menopause and Its Prevention

All You Wanted To Know About Menopause and Its Prevention
 by: Venkata Ramana

Menopause occurs when a women stops ovulating and her periods ceases. Most women reach menopause between 45 and 55 years, with an average age around 50. But about 1% reaches it before 40, which is known as premature menopause or premature ovarian failure.
For women in their teens and 20’s the loss of their fertility is devastating. They will also experience a long period of postmenopausal life, and hormonal replacement therapy may be advised.
Symptoms:
Ш Menstrual cycle changes Ш Changes in the bleeding pattern Ш Hot flushes Ш Sweats Ш Urinary problems such as incontinence or increased frequency of urination. Ш Dry vagina Ш Mood changes Ш Weight changes etc
Are some of the basic symptoms.
Prevention:
We can prevent early Menopause, by preventing unwanted surgeries, of the uterus or the ovaries unless there is strong indication for their removal. Such Surgeries can lead to autoimmune diseases such as diabetes, Rheumatoid arthritis and thyroid disorders. Conserving even a single ovary can help in preventing the onset menopause.
Urban women have access to information or counseling, but unfortunately the women in rural areas of Asia have no such knowledge. The good news for those who would like to rule out doubts about the onset of menopause will soon be available in the form of LH Kits ( Leutinizing hormone ) to check their ovulation especially used with infertility patients. While stress cannot be over emphasized, it has a role in temporary or prolonged cessation of periods.
Treatment:
Generally early menopause too is treated in a similar way as menopause itself, through HRT ( Hormone Replacement Therapy ), life style modification,calcium and good nutrition.
HRT – It must be borne in mind that an extensive study shows that HRT is not a protection against heart diseases as was believed before and infact not quite the “happy pill” – that women had thought is given up to the age of menopause.
