When you learn to speak a foreign language, there are many obvious benefits: You can communicate better with people from another culture. You are able to enjoy a vacation in a foreign country much more. It might positively affect your career. It’s good to keep your brain fit. But there’s another benefit:

It helps you to make better decisions, and reduces psychological biases that distort clear thinking.

Scientists found this out recently when they did an interesting study, which Wired magazine reported.

A series of experiments on more than 300 people from the U.S. and Korea found that thinking in a second language reduced deep-seated, misleading biases that unduly influence how risks and benefits are perceived.

“Would you make the same decisions in a foreign language as you would in your native tongue?” asked psychologists led by Boaz Keysar of the University of Chicago in an April 18 Psychological Science study.

“It may be intuitive that people would make the same choices regardless of the language they are using, or that the difficulty of using a foreign language would make decisions less systematic. We discovered, however, that the opposite is true: Using a foreign language reduces decision-making biases,” wrote Keysar’s team.

There is of course a downside to speaking a foreign language: it’s difficult and time-consuming.

Fortunately, you can do something about it: Hypnosis can help your mind to assimilate foreign language knowledge a lot faster, and integrate it into your semantic knowledge. It’s kind of like pushing the fast-forward button on your mental language-learning machinery. To find out more about learning languages faster and easier with hypnosis click here.

Well, when you think of Iran, you usually think of… well, militant Muslims, or nuclear programs, or oil. But they’ll hold an International Congress on Clinical Hypnosis this month and there are more than 800 participants expected from countries like Switzerland, Italy, Germany, Norway an Australia.

The event takes place at Mashhad’s Medical Sciences University on April 26 and is also organized by Iran’s Clinical Hypnosis Scientific Association in cooperation with the Italian Psychotherapy Institute EMDR and Cognitive Therapy Institute TELMAN.

There’s nothing that I would like to tell you more than that hypnosis is the answer to all your problems. But that’s not true. However, what I believe to be true is that hypnosis can be of big help in overcoming many problems which you face in life, and also in improving many areas of your life which are already going pretty good.

But let’s set beliefs and wishful thinking aside for a moment, and let’s look at facts, let’s look at science.

What does it say about the effectiveness of hypnosis, and what do neuroscientists know about the brains ability to change itself?

After all, there are still many people who claim that hypnosis doesn’t work.

Much of this is based on beliefs that the brain can’t change once we’ve reached a certain age, and so on. All of this has been refuted by recent scientific discoveries. It’s now an established fact among scientists that the brain can change – in fact, the term brain plasticity has been coined to describe the brains unique ability to change itself.

And your brain is not just able to change itself in young years, but at every age.

And by “change” I don’t mean the negative deterioration of brain tissue that many people believe to be inevitable. I mean positive changes that help you to function better in your life, positive changes that make your mind more efficient.

But what determines how your brain changes?

It’s mainly your experiences; what you see, hear, feel, smell and taste.

Your brain is hardwired to adapt itself to your experiences, to help you better cope in this world. You can really imagine your brain to function kind of like a muscle: the more you train it, the stronger it gets. But of course there are many different mental functions that your brain can perform, just as there are hundreds of different muscles in your body. If all you do to train your muscles is doing pushups, you will probably develop some tremendous biceps, but your leg musculature won’t benefit at all from that. And the same is true for mental training: it’s important to take a holistic approach.

What’s interesting about experiences from a neurological viewpoint is this: your brain doesn’t differentiate between real and imagined experiences. That’s why hypnosis is so powerful: because it’s the most effective way of creating internal experiences that help to re-train and re-wire neural connections in your brain in a very specific and targeted manner.

A new study has revealed that Botox can help to reduce itching.

Now this isn’t really surprising, because basically Botox is a substance that reduces all sensations in the areas where it’s injected. (And as a side-note… one of the possible risks and side-effects of Botox injections can be severe and/or chronic itching, so beware).

But don’t you wonder why they’re passing this off as a “solution” to people who have a problem with itchiness?

Well, it’s an easy way to generate some extra income for “experts” who do Botox injections.

There are millions of people in the world who suffer from pruritus. And they’re willing to spend a lot of money on anything that could help to ease their itch.

But the thing is that there are already very effective, natural low-cost pruritus treatments available for people who suffer from persistent itchiness.

You can simply listen to a hypnosis download against itching to help your subconscious mind to ease the itch and stop the urge to scratch.

A relationship can be a fragile thing – that’s why so many couples break up. But you won’t make your relationship any stronger if you feel constantly insecure about it. In fact, if you’re afraid that your partner will leave you, you’ll probably acting in ways that will make it more likely that your partner will do just that.

Most people become clingy and needy when they are afraid of their partner leaving them. When they do not have trust in their partner, when they think that they are not good enough for their partner, then they start to do the exact wrong thing. And even though they are often aware that they shouldn’t behave that way, they can’t help it.

If that’s you, then you should really take the time to read this article. Because the advice that you can find here has helped many people to change their mental attitude, and establish confidence in their partner and ultimately safe their relationship.

Maybe you are asking yourself: “Did I do something to upset him*?” And that can cause you to be overly selfconscious and carefull – which makes you… well, boring to be with. Being boring kills attraction, and so being overly timid and tiptoeing around isn’t a good way to behave in a mature relationship that’s meant to last long.

Or maybe your asking yourself: “Why is he even interested in me? Why does he love me? I don’t deserve his love!” Well, if you think that you’ll communicate it to your partner too. And when I say “communicate”, then I don’t mean necessarily in a verbal way – not like actually saying it. But you’ll communicate it through the way you act and talk with your partner.

And long-lasting relationships are always based on mutual respect and equality – if one partner is inferior and another partner is superior, usually something happens that brings the relationship out of balance. Either the partner who feels inferior starts to “rebell” against his partner, or the superior partner starts to “mock” his partner and just lose interest. Neither is something that you want to have happen in your relationship.

But all the rational thinking and reasoning in the world can’t really help – yes, looking at things from that perspective can be helpful and insightful. But at the same time, it’s so difficult to change the way you feel and act. It’s so difficult to actually do something about your lack of trust in your relationship. Because that fear that it migh break apart, that fear of being left alone, is just nagging and nagging at you. And you just can’t switch it off.

Well, you can’t switch it off if you don’t know where that “switch” is. It’s there, really. It’s on the inside of your subconscious mind. And you can find it with the help of a hypnosis download against insecurity in relationships.

* I use “him” and “her” just to illustrate. There are as many men as there are women who are insecure in their relationships, so this is just a random pick.

In North Port a principal is facing charges because he hypnotized students without having a medical license. This is an interesting story, and surely one that could be made in a popular movie, but if you look at the facts it could be quiet sad that he’s getting that kind of treatment for trying to help.

“Feel good about myself? What’s there to feel good about?” she asked me. And she meant it, I could tell by her confrontative looks.

Now I could have told her a thousand things. You know, the usual stuff: Hey, feel good about yourself because you’re healthy – you’ve got all ten fingers, two legs, you can see without glasses, and so on.

I could have also told her that there are people who like her, people who love her, people who care for her (and in her case it was true). And that this is a great luck, and that many people would be incredibly grateful about it.

But all these rational reasons usually have very little impact. It’s just a way of feeding the mind, but in situations like these, the mind is like a black hole which devours everything.

What I really needed to do was to get access to the underlying subconscious pattern that made her feel bad about herself.

So how do you do that?

Well, first of all, you need to keep the conscious mind busy and occupied. This way you reduce the effectiveness of self-sabotage-strategies which people who feel bad about themselves often habitually use.

In her case, I told her to make a list of all the positive things about her life.

I know, I know. It’s a cheap and simplistic approach. But keep in mind that this was a disctraction maneuver, and not the actual intervention. It was just part of the set up to move things the right way.

Then I told her to pick the clothes that she felt best in for the next time she would come to my office. She had to choose the clothes that would make her feel the most comfortable – and I left it up to her to decide whether that would be a pyjama or a gala dinner dress or anything in between.

Again, just another part of the set up.

And I told her to watch at least one really silly, stupid funny video clip a day that would make her laugh. And then she would have to tell me which clip made her laugh for each day that passed (she would come to see me again in 7 days in my practice).

And when she actually did come, I just did a simple hypnotic induction with her, anchoring certain emotional states and utilizing these anchors to install a better strategy. She left the session feeling not good about herself. But next time she came, she told me: “You know, I still don’t believe that those funny clips or your hypnosis actually worked. But I do feel good about myself now! I just came to see if there is anything else that I should do to make sure it stays that way?”

I thought it was kind of funny that this change happened exactly after that intervention, and that she didn’t believe it had anything to do with the hypnosis, but still asked me if there was anything else she should do. I told her it was fine, and she should just cherish herself and those around her, and I met her again a couple of months later accidentally and we chatted a bit, and she said “that thing” (the not feeling good about herself) was a thing long gone.

Now the good thing is – you don’t actually need to come to see me in my office, or any other hypnotist. There is an excellent hypnosis download to help you feel good about yourself, and all you need to do is to listen to it daily for a couple of weeks.

If your skin itches, you probably wonder what you can do about it. (And the answer is here). Sure, the first instinct is to scratch it – but we all know that that’s not really helping. Yes, scratching provides temporary relief – but it also makes things worse in the long term. Not only will it make your itch come back with more intensity, but it can leave lasting scars on your skin. Not something particularly attractive…

One of the things you can do is to realize in your mind that you’re in charge. It’s not the itching sensation that’s in charge. Actually your body – that means YOU – is creating the itching sensation. It’s not as if an “itch” has somehow found it’s way from the air onto your skin – it’s your body, your nervous system, that’s making the itching sensation. And since that is the case, you can control it – even though you might just not have figured out how exactly to do it. But just realizing that there is a way to excert control over it can help you to easier cope with it.

Try saying these sentences to yourself:

Itching is a sensation. An itch doesn’t *really* exist in reality.

A stone is real. It’s something that you can see. Nobody has ever seen an itch.

A stone is real, and if you doubt it you can throw it against a window, and the window will break. Now try breaking a window with an itch…

A stone is real, because when you let it fall, it makes a noise. Nobody has ever heard an itch.

Thus, itching is not real. That doesn’t mean that you don’t feel the itch anymore – sometimes things that are not real can bother us too. But the thing about things that are not real is, that they can be get rid of a lot easier than real things. Because they don’t really exist in the first place.

You have control over your mind. And you have a lot of control over your body. You can decide to breathe in deeply, and then you just do it. You can decide to look up from the screen to see what’s around you – and then your eyes do it. You can decide to move your arms – and then your arms move the way you want to. All of that is happening because your mind is in charge of many functions of your body.

And we know that there are some bodily functions that can’t be as easily controlled. Like the speed of our heart beat, and so on. But we also know that there are many people who learned to control these functions. In fact, scientists agree that everybody can learn to consciously change the speed of their heart beat if they want to. It’s just a thing that you need to practice the right way.

With the help of your subconscious mind, you can learn to let go of the itch, and replace it with a much more relaxing and pleasant sensation.

Vicodin & hydrocone can be very easy ways to reduce pain. However, they can also carry a high risk of addiction, particularly the latter one. Essentially it’s an opiate, just like heroin, morphine, methadone, codeine or oxycodone. “Opiate” means that it’s a substance that is chemically similar to opium.

Some experts say that there is no legitimate need for a drug like this on the market, and that it might cause more harm than good.

So are there natural pain killer alternatives that don’t carry these risks of addiction?

Well, think about it: your brain and body are already capable of managing pain. All the neurological and biochemical mechanisms required to regulate pain are already in there.

We usually do not have conscious control over these mechanisms, but this is something that you can train and learn to master. Millions of people have already done so. Maybe you have seen people who do things that would usually cause a tremendous amount of pain, but they do it with a relaxed kind of ease that’s just stunning. These people aren’t freaks of nature – most of them have trained themselves to control the sensation of pain, and to be able to use the power of their mind to “switch off the pain”.

There are many ways to do this – yogic practice, many years of meditation and so on.

But one of the fastest ways to be able to control and reduce pain is to utilize the power of your subconscious mind. Hypnosis is the ideal gateway for that: you can simply take some time for yourself to relax, make yourself comfortable and listen to a hypnotic induction for pain relief in the privacy of your own home. Do this daily before you go to sleep, and there is a very high probability that you will notice that you feel less and less pain.

Former Bond-girl Joanna Lumley, who is now one of Britain’s biggest TV celebrities, didn’t start out with a silver spoon in her mouth. Back in the early stages of her acting career, she went through some tough times and had to struggle to make ends meet.

What’s more: she was plagued by panic attacks so intense that she was afraid of going insane.

Just to give you an example of the kind of anxieties she had to deal with: when she was acting on stage, she hallucinated people in the audience pointing guns at her, and she was always ready to dodge a bullet.

Looking back on this, it might seem like a funny story, but for her it wasn’t at all. It was seriously putting her professional life at risk – as well as her private life.

She was afraid of entering shops, going to public places, standing by the window, because she had this constant fear of being assassinated.

It’s hard to imagine the horrors she went through every single day with those kinds of fears, and she regularly experienced panic attacks.

One of the worst things about panic attacks is that they’re kind of self-triggering: when you feel a bit anxious, you start to be afraid that this is another panic attack in the making. And then it becomes of course a kind of self-fulfilling prophecy, it feeds itself on more fear, anxiety and panic, till it pushes you literally to the edge of sanity.

She tried all kinds of things to cope with her fears, but what ultimately did it for her was hypnosis against panic attacks.

She is just one of many people who successfully overcome anxiety and panic attacks with the help of hypnotherapy. Ultimately, these kinds of fears are always triggered and amplified by the subconscious mind. Fear is one of the most intense emotions we are capable of experiencing – and it can hijack our brain with all our good ideas and thoughts and well-laid out concepts. No matter how smart and intelligent we are, fear can erase our IQ in the blink of an eye and throw us back into an earlier evolutionary stage when we were largely driven by instincts and impulses.

Our brains have evolved so much since these ancient times – but the parts that were there first are still hold neurological dominance. And partly for a reason, it’s not really a design flaw: these parts are important for our very survival. Yet, in our modern society, actual, real, physical survival is seldom the issue – the things that we’re often afraid of aren’t actually that scary. But we’re still hardwired to experience fear, and if we associate the wrong triggers in our environment with intense states of fear, things get out of hand.

That’s why hypnosis against panic attacks is so powerful – because it helps us to better cope with it all and to normalize our fear responses. Instead of a cycle of panic feeding on fear, this hypnosis download can help your subconscious mind to stop for just a moment and evaluate whether this is a reasonable or purposeful reaction – and your subconscious mind will most often decide that it’s not, and simply stop it and help to calm you down.
