As part of the ABH (American Board of Hypnotherapy)
Convention, Dr. Stockwell did a presentation on her new technique
called: “Joy Therapy”.
Joy
Therapy involves laughing without any particular reason to awaken all senses and create a sensation of
wellbeing.
This
lecture leads me to imagine the following mental exercises to create
positive new habits and attitude of contentment. One more tool of
self-actualization that can free us so we can work
towards simply feeling GREAT!
* First
increase the awareness toward your state of mind, focusing the
attention on the quality of joy that you generate in all your actions. Be aware of your physical sensations,
emotions and feelings. Pay attention, do not judge it.
*
Imagine now, if you may that you keep in the background of your
thoughts, some kind of Mantra saying: “If it is not fun, I won’t do
it!” or “I do only fun things, all day long, with all my heart and
soul” I love to have FUN, and I am good at it”. Be creative and infuse
your subconscious with these happy
Mantras.
* Now recall
the things that you do against your good will for a minute.
Notice
the negative energy that you can feel just by thinking about it in your
body...
Maybe
it is time to be more aware of these actions and make new decisions to avoid unnecessary
negativity.
If
you find things that you cannot avoid right now
try following this program:
- First make a
plan to create in your daily self-hypnosis a perfect visualization including the changes that you wish
to manifest. Charge with all your heart the outcome that you desire. Affirm in a positive way your vision and know that it is done
in a perfect way, (See article on Guideline
for Succesful Affirmations).
- Feel gratitude for the help that you have available to achieve your goal.
- Give permission
to your spiritual guides to intervene. Ask
for help.
- Welcome Divine Providence to release
the blocks that are limiting your willingness to move forward. You
cannot force yourself to love and to be loving. Love is a natural genuine expression of joy, is it
not?
- So be patient
with yourself and when your prayers for
self healing open the path to inner peace, than follow your
heart and find your duties pleasurable. Acting under love’s guidance will bring more fulfillment
than forced resentful duties.
The fun and excitement never end if you choose to make “Joy” part of your life!
In Gratitude,Harmony & Light,
