Avatar The Movie & What We can do Here…

Lori Thomas - The Hypnovator — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 07:03:47 +0000

On the Place we call Home – Earth, also, known as Gaia, another name for Earth that comes from Greek mythology, referring to the Earth Goddess. Gaia, pronounced “Guy – uh” a beautiful name for this wonderful Planet that we get to inhabit. It is a Planet like no other (that we know of, at this time) and if you have been to one that is more amazing – Please, do let me know about it.

We are so fortunate to be here to have this place to live and it’s really great to be connecting with more and more like-minded people who share the same realization.

As humans, we get to experience the many different opportunities our Planet offers us, and at the same time, have been given the abilities to change our experiences to the better.

Right now, I feel, see, sense and know that we are living in a time of Great Change and true discovery. It is a time for many who have either been depressed, unhappy, angry, sad, fearful or even lost to realize and know their purpose in Life. When we allow ourselves to have more peace and calm, it enables a better connect with our true self and that’s when change happens. As these new changes become part of your everyday life, it can start to make you realize what is missing.

The many great changes taking place have created an awakening and with the recent effect that the Movie, Avatar has had – the longing for inner peace and calm is even more evident.

This amazing movie, creatively produced with such symbolic wisdom, shows that even though it takes place in the future where overgrown cat like natives live in heightened states of spiritual harmony, on Planet Pandora - it really is not much different than our own Planet. (figuratively speaking, that is)

Through the journey of the characters in this movie, the audience has gotten a glimpse of what more peace, calm and serenity looks and feels like and many are craving more. They great thing is that most all of us already have the ability within ourselves to make this happen and after seeing this movie, I couldn’t stop thinking about how we really can create our own type of Pandora, right here on Earth…

Then, what motivated me more to write about this, was a recent connection with a new like-minded Friend on Facebook who had sent out a very interesting note. The information in her note talked about the deep symbolism in this movie and we chatted about how we both related to it so well. Even though she had received this information from another Friend, she was so excited to be sharing it since, it had helped her understand her own thoughts even better and I am so glad she did.

The information in the note, was written by Ada Monola, and she talked about “the many hidden messages… or maybe not so hidden for people who are aware…” then she shared her opinion about what she saw in these hidden messages.

The rest of this information could be a spoiler for those who have not seen this movie, but who has not seen this wonderful film, yet ?

I was able to see most of the same messages but what surprised me, was that I was not aware of something that is now, so obvious. When she talked about the Heroes in the Movie, it immediately got my attention and what I read next, almost left me breathless. She said, “The heroes are set in hypnosis mode in order to connect with their avatars… we meditate, we ‘put in sleep’ our vehicle (the body) so we can connect with the avatar within us (our Soul, who is Divine – an avatar -)”

Wow, I thought – what an amazing way to describe the most important symbolic message of this whole movie and in such a beautiful way !!! Then, I thought – of course hypnosis…that is exactly what they had used and how did I not see it, something I know so well.

That is how great this movie is – the peace and harmony on Pandora contrasted with the cruel reality of life is so captivating that it has overloaded those so deeply effected. And it seems, many are still trying to figure out what they are feeling about it.

Have you heard about the avatar effect, (click here to read more) also, know as the avatar blues. It is a type of post depression from the deep feelings felt about this movie and it is causing many to have a hard time with their reality ?

Notice, I said, their reality – since, we have the ability within to change our own reality for the better. This ability is there and it is just waiting to be released and Hypnotherapy is one of the best ways to make this happen.

Hypnosis is just a deepened state of relaxation that occurs naturally when your mind is being overloaded with message units, much like watching a movie. The guided imagery and visualization that send the message units offer suggestions to slow your breathing and that enables more stress release, much like watching a movie.

During a session you are still conscious but the messages units that distract the conscious part of the mind cause your thoughts to go deeper. These deepening thoughts that are relaxing you, are also opening up the subconscious part of your mind more and that is where you decide which suggestions to believe or not believe. This is much like the effect that Avatar has had but the most very important difference is that during a Hypnotherapy session, only Positive suggestions are used.

So, it seems the positive suggestions taken from this movie created a healthy desire for more, which is great, but many of those, so deeply affected, are not aware of how to experience this again. Also, their negative thoughts might have them thinking that they had nothing to do with what they had felt since, it occurred watching a fictitious movie of make-believe.

I can’t speak for all of the people going through this but I do know that most all of us have the ability to create more peace, calm and serenity in our lives. It might not be like the Planet Pandora, in the Movie Avatar, but you can get to that place to release more stress to find your own peace and calm within. When your mind becomes more quiet, you are able to hear better what your soul has to offer and that is what allows you to know your passions.

Many people I have been connecting with are happily living their Passions with much peace and serenity and some of the others are beginning to discover this even more. These are the people who know – you gotta do what it takes, to get to where you want to be and this gives me much hope that more people are understanding that, if you really want something – you have to be willing to do the work to get it.

And for those who are not quite ready, yet – that is O.K. too, everybody finds their own way to deal with change. I love it when people come to me and I get to motivate them further but ultimately, they are the ones who have to really want it.

So, if you are searching for some positive things that might be missing in your life – you want them and also, know there will be some work to do, then, it is a good idea to find other ways to release more stress - and it’s as simple as Breathing…

More Motivation to You All –

Lori Thomas

A New Year, A New Decade with more Time for… Lori Thomas - The Hypnovator — Tue, 12 Jan 2010 06:38:34 +0000 A Better You !!! Did you make any Resolutions this Year ? Did you know that most people who make New Year’s Resolutions, do not follow through with them and I just read in a recent article that “on average, 85 % of people that make them, do not keep them.” First of all, I think it is really great if you did make some Resolutions – since, that means, you do know that you would like some type of changes to occur in your life and hopefully, they are Positive ones. It is a start, even if you are not following through with them as planned or having a hard time making them happen, at all. Now, if your Resolutions are happening smoothly then, Here’s more Motivation to You – along with a reminder to always have some good “Mind tools” for those days when old ways of thinking could come back to trigger old behavior. “Mind tools” (a term that I think, I just made up while writing this) are motivative thinking anchors that reinforce new changes and they are personalized to fit the issues of each Client that I work with. Also, the anchors given help in grounding new positive thoughts (like a boat anchor) to new positive actions, reactions and behaviors. Change is always happening in our Lives and since, most all changes, that we would like to change, happen in our subconscious, that is why Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy works so well and quickly. Not only, does it get to that subconscious level where old ways of thinking, feeling and reacting changes for the better – it also, reinforces changes through the personalized repetition, suggestions and visualization that is related to those issues being worked on. Now, the not so easy part is finding those changes and then, making them happen while allowing them to become part of everyday life and this is why I absolutely Love being a Hypnotherapist – I get to be part of this amazing transformation that is being created as my clients quickly change for the better. Change is good and through our own experiences most all of us have probably had and seen some pretty impactful changes happen during this past decade. I know, I have and most everyone I know, has had some real good changes, along with some bad ones and then, there are others that are just confused with the many people having such difficulties while, at the same time, others are thriving by doing the best they ever have. These extreme contrasts are causing us to become even more aware of what others are going through and the difference in opinions are surely being expressed. Some of which are: “We are just going through another recession that will past soon” along with, “This is the worst economy since, the great depression” then, there are others that are saying “What recession?” Does it seems to be all relative then and what about the Law of Attraction that says, “What we focus on happens Most” ? Well, what ever it is that we are going through, we will get through it, as we always have and there is no doubt that yes, there really is something going on out there and things are forever and always changing. So, through all of these changes, what I am sensing about this new decade is that the theme is already becoming, not about me, I or you but about We – We as a whole. We have to continue to do things together and with Social media and sites like Facebook we have already been doing this for quite some time and we are getting more and more comfortable with sharing, commenting and expressing our feelings. As more and more like minded people are connecting and we continue to comment, share and express ourselves in a Positive respectful way, not only does our own life continue to change for the better but those that engage with us, change for the better, as well. Since, jumping right in, to embrace Social Media, as many others did, through Facebook, this whole past year ended up being a Social Media Networking training camp for me and it has been amazing. How great is it that, we get the opportunity to be part of such a wonderful new way to connect with people all over the world where our lives can literally be changed in an instant. Just think about the many ways your Life has changed for the better through Social Media and think about those people that helped you to change and also, those you helped to change in the process. Through this past year, that is what I have focused on most – the importance of embracing the changes that are happening in your Life, and what I have discovered is that, I can not do it all my own. So, that is why I am now taking Social Media to the next level by really understanding how important it is to have a special networking group of friends – like minded people to rely on and get support and motivation from. First, I found how this worked on a large scale through Facebook and now, I am learning how it can work on a smaller scale with what is being called a “tribe”. An old term that is being used to describe a new type of online syndication tribe and the leader of this new tribe that I am involved in is Kimberly Castleberry and she explains it all very well at this link, right here with more information here - Also, I am having a great time getting to know some of the others that have joined our tribe and I am excited to share how they are making changes happen through the work they are doing, as well.

Also, non-smokers can benefit from watching this Video since, it does offer details about Phone Hypnotherapy working to change other issues, as well. Overcoming the Misconceptions about Hypnosis, I can and do explain… Lori Thomas - The Hypnovator — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 22:12:26 +0000 Back in July of 2009 – Glen Beck had Stage Hypnotist, John Cerbone on, a short segment of, his show and I did have a link to that video clip, that was on YouTube, but it seems to have been taken off all together for some reason. It was titled, Glenn Beck Uses Hypnotist To Save America From President. Found the original video Clip again, right Here: click Here If the clip becomes no longer available, again – I have added a link below to one of John Cerbone’s own YouTube videos of him doing Stage Hypnosis. It is there at the link below to give a better reference into what I am talking about in relation to the contrasts I am making. It is a long video – so, you really only have to watch a bit of it to see some of the things he does as a Stage Hypnotist. click this link right here to see video After you watch some of this video, just click the back button to get back Here - First of all, Congratulations goes to Hypnotist John Cerbone, The Trance-Master, for his appearance on The Glen Beck Show, a great step in his career and I think he did a real fine job with what little time he had to work with. Exposure is good and his appearance on this show has added more to the idea of people using Hypnosis for themselves. So, thanks John for exposing Hypnosis more and thanks Glen for having him on your show. As a Hypnotherapist, I do see more and more people are, not only, using Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy, they are also accepting it as an alternative therapy. The positive results they are receiving show proof that this stuff really does work well and quickly as it changes them for the better. Hypnosis is most commonly known to work well for trying to quit smoking and also, lesser known, for reducing weight but there are so many other things it can work for. It can also help in releasing stress, changing bad habits and negative thoughts, eliminating fears and phobias, building confidence, working on obsessions and addictions, as well as, increasing motivation and more. Since I believe most everyone already has within them what is required to change, one of the first things I do with all my clients is address their stress level. Then, I assist them through motivation to release unwanted stress enabling them to go within finding their own positive changes that are already there just waiting for them. Now, some of the main reasons I became The Hypnovator is to inform those, who do want change, about how well Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy can work and how amazingly beneficial it can be and most importantly, to clarify some misconceptions. So, when I see videos like this one above I do get excited about the exposure but I also feel that it still may be sending out some of the same old misconceptions about Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy – that it will put you to sleep where you can be controlled and you will do anything that you are told and maybe even reveal some secrets about yourself. I realize that Glen was having fun with the situation but I feel John, on the other hand, was really wanting to show what he is famous for, by inducing trance quickly. John too is well know for his Stage Hypnosis, I did check out his site and some of his videos on YouTube and he is really good and does know what Hypnosis is all about. Also, from what was discussed about John Hypnotizing someone that works at Fox, he obviously, uses Hypnosis as a therapy, as well. Stage Hypnosis is much different than Hypnotherapy and it seems a lot of misconceptions are still coming from what people see at these types of shows and hear about them. Stage Hypnosis is usually about entertaining and getting people to do funny silly things to make the audience laugh and you might agree, seeing people act this way can be pretty comical. Stage Hypnotists have gotten good through repetition and they know instantly who the most suggestible people are in the crowd and those are usually the brave ones willing to get up on stage, in the first place. Also, they have mastered their techniques to work to their own advantage in getting these people to do what they tell them to do. They can be real entertaining and I am not knocking them as I do enjoy watching some of them but the Hypnotherapy that I do and most other Hypnotherapist do has nothing to do with controlling other people and making them do silly things. As a Hypnotherapist, I help and motivate those who have come seeking positive change in their lives. I do make suggestions through the use of visualization and guided imagery but I motivate in changing only what a client has told me that they want to change. We talk cognitively, out loud, before the Hypnosis part of the session and clients only reveal what they want me to know and all is discussed in complete confidence. Then, the Hypnosis part is used as an avenue to take clients into a deepened state of relaxation to open up the subconscious part of the mind more where change occurs. So, as The Hypnovator, I am here to motivate You and help You understand more about Hypnotherapy and Your mind and like John, I use my voice and don’t use a watch or a pendulum or any other Hypnotist type object thing.

There are so many social networking sites out there now and it has become an obsession for many, like myself and maybe You also have found it to be quite captivating. Right now, Facebook is the main site where I do most of my socializing and networking. As many of you already know, it is very user friendly also fun and can be real exciting.
