Happy New Year and New Beginning Time.

There are some major happenings in and around Birmingham Alabama. Four blocks away from The Path Foundation, Frank Stitt’s restaurant, "Highland’s Restaurant", has the honor of being recognized as one of the five top restaurants in the nation. This is the second time Frank Stitt has been in the running and he came in second in the nation this year. This second best restaurant in the United States is within walking distance of The PATH Foundation's Hypnosis Clinic, no less.

Frank Stitt's Highland Restaurant is four blocks away from the PATH Foundation. This restaurant was recognized the second best restaurant in the Nation.

Another fantastic happening is the talent of Mark Ingram, Jr., and his being named the Heisman Trophy Winner. His bringing this award to the University of Alabama and to the State of Alabama is exciting. Auburn University has two of these trophies with Pat Sullivan in 1971 and Bo Jackson in 1985. Now, in 2010, Mark Ingram, Jr., has now won this trophy as a member of the University of Alabama football team.

Congratulations to Frank Stitt and Mark Ingram, Jr.

New Year Resolutions

This time of year is the time to make a commitment to self and improving your life. The article mentioned next was about a recent study on obesity and shows that two out of three Americans are overweight. Hypnosis has been found to be an excellent tool in curbing appetite, motivating self, and achieving your ideal weight.

One of the CD sets which came out of the year long weight loss group was one called "Spiritual Weight Loss". In this series are three Hypnosis sessions on CD.

One is a releasing CD to release causes for the weight or causes for holding onto the weight. The second CD is one called Let Your Light Shine. It is filled with positive suggestions of self love and success suggestions. A third CD is one called Gratitude to Lose Weight. It helps the mind focus on the positive aspects of life with total appreciation rather than focusing on negative thoughts, ideas, or beliefs. This CD set will truly set you free to be in a healthy body at your ideal weight. The cover of the CD set is exactly where all of us are at this time of year , which is a bursting forth to a new beginning.

This CD set and all PATH weight loss CD’s are geared to in-home sessions of hypnosis. Private sessions of releasing weight and reprogramming to an ideal body are fast, positive, and effective and are followed-up with a positive suggestion CD set.

 

Many people are trying to Stop Smoking

If you are a Smoker or Dipper, this is a good time to utilize the best tool out there to help you stop. We got used to hearing about the dangers of smoking and of secondary smoke. Now, it has been found that one of the deadliest processes in the smoking habit is third-hand, or tertiary smoke. This is the film of tar, toxins, and nicotine that children, pets, and other home members experience in the vehicles and homes of smokers. Children crawl around on carpets and floors with this film. Those exposed to this toxic environment are found to be in extreme danger of developing illness including, but not limited to, cancer.

Children are also being exposed to the truth through the media where most of the baby boomers and some of the Generation X group were programmed to think smoking was cool and safe. These children are motivating parents and grandparents to take action and stop smoking. Stop Smoking through PATH hypnosis involves a releasing of causes along with reprogramming to change desire and resultant lifestyle. The best way is in private sessions to stop smoking , which is two sessions of hypnosis. PATH also has a very effective in-home CD program of stop smoking.

This is the very best time to make the commitment which will lead to health and well-being. The commitment is to self but others around you will be positively affected by this commitment.

Studies show Brain Cells can regenerate

The University of Alabama in Birmingham had a wonderful article about their developing a stroke therapy for stroke patients which also proved that the brain can literally grow or regenerate. (Remember we have seen powerful changes through Cell Command therapy and releasing of causes through cellular releasing and this was before science had literally proven that brain cells could actually regrow and change back to a positive stance after injury). This UAB article is very interesting and uplifting.


 

Right Brain Connection Assists Healing

We have promised more information on the right brain capacity and how the right brain can positively assist all of us in life. There is a wonderful book which has just reached the New York Times Bestseller List. It is by John Bradshaw called Reclaiming Virtue. When I was in post-graduate training at the University of Houston working with the chemically dependent population, John Bradshaw had already made a name for himself in Houston. He had set up a major center in Houston and was at that time, and later, positively impacting the lives of others.

However, the treatment community keeps in touch with the truth about therapists , and he preached a really good game, helped thousands of others , but made some serious blunders in his own life. When this book came out, I literally picked it up and put it back down at a major bookstore. I spoke out loud and said these words, “How about practicing what you preach?”, and I walked away.

About a month later, I was at a grocery store chain in Birmingham and wanted something to read. When I went to the magazine section, there was his book standing on the magazine rack. I searched the books in the actual book area and did not find another of his books among the books. Needless to say, I took it to the front to see if it would ring up and it did. Thus, I read his new book. That book had to track me down, however.

What a surprise reading this book was to me. John Bradshaw calls his own game very accurately and with truth. He literally tells the truth about his mistakes in life and what was causing them. He had stuffed major hurts, abuse, addictions, and had overcome some while projecting others onto other people as shadow issues. He would not own his sex addiction and his extreme anger over being sexually abused in childhood and young adulthood and talks about it in the book.

When reading the book, one can almost feel “the last chance” that God , and all that is good, is giving him for him to heal . By the end of the book, I felt he has something significant to contribute and there is a very good chance he will get that healing in order to do whatever it is he is to . He has certainly created a good piece to assist others in breaking their own denial and has had his own awakening.

One of the major causes for him to release was anger. This anger was raging and totally stuffed to the recessions of his subconscious. Releasing that old programming is absolutely necessary for a better life, good health, and staying out of the clutches of violence that seems to find angry people.

With hypnosis you can do it in private sessions or in-home sessions of releasing. with CD hypnosis sessions. By the way, one of the the major psychological foundation components of excess weight and smoking is found to be anger.

So if you go to work with a hypnotist who is obviously very overweight, underweight with a probable eating disorder, or smells of their own cigarette smoke, just get up and leave. Come back when they decide to get authentic with their own life and work on their own issues.

Now for that update on right brain capacity. We will start with the people we have been following who obviously don’t have a clue about how to follow the lead of right brain consciousness. The two Carolinians who have been in trouble are still in trouble, but their troubles are intensifying . The governor of one Carolina state is still being investigated for misuse of office and ethical issues. The divorce his wife started is well on its way and the “soul-mate” he was so enamored with is not in this fight to save his office. So much for looking behind to see who is right there with you in a fight.

The former Presidential candidate has had a major shock. He has been presented with an $18,000 a month legal request for support by the woman who thought he was so hot on the street corner that fateful night. That fateful night was the one when he made the wrong choice. He is fighting the support request and stated that he would just like to get back to politics. Denial is possibly very much alive here.

The true victim, besides the children involved, is the person who has those co-dependent characteristics in her past. She unfortunately still has the terminal illness diagnosis. I bet if she could get that turned around, her life would probably take on a different look, also.

This brings us to recognize two of the most valuable commodities in life, health and hope for a future. Remember from our writings, that grief is one of the things which contibuted greatly to her loss of health and loss of hope for a future. Overcoming the awful betrayal would help her now.

I think we are clear at this point that these people would probably now think that developing the ability to "spot a con", "see and hear the real truth", and "recognize the positive signs that are guiding them or warning them", would have been a valuable skills to develop.

Along with these two Carolina guys , now comes a famous billionaire golfer and a TV personality who appears to fight the same demons with lapses of normalcy thrown in between the demons showing their ugly heads.

Where is their right brain capacity? Never developed it would be the likely answer.

The Use of Stories & their moral
can assist right brain healing

A group of medical students at the University of Alabama in Birmingham were recently written up in the news for their incorporating story into the healing process. We have talked about Carl Jung being one of the most powerful healers of all time. He used story and the moral in stories to help with healing. This is a very real right brain technique of healing.

These students also are incorporating story to help heal, just as Jung did. They are experiencing success and noticing a marked change in attitude of the patients. Jungian psychology uses story to make points which will strengthen resolve, help with choices, develop integrity, embrace courage, and thus heal physically, spiritually, and emotionally.



Another picture in the paper also caught my eye. Two MD researchers at UAB made the paper recently. When you look at the picture, you can see which MD is probably the most attuned with their subconscious and has probably developed their creativity.

Color, Symbols & Signs Connect to the Subconscious

Color, symbols, signs can definitely lead us. Remember the story I told about the woman who came to me with all the success symbols intact. She had the laptop she brought in from her car, her “just-the-right-suit”, her blackberry, etc. However, on her two middle fingers were rings that just didn’t go with the mix. Just like those rings, she had just enough rebellion and self-sabotage to cause her periodic spurts of crisis and conflict.

Getting to the subconscious mind through hypnosis was the only way to release that program which would rear its ugly head after it had stayed in shadow for too long and wanted out.

I remember she talked a good game, couldn’t understand the crisis events or where they came from, but just looking at those rings told me there were shadow issues just fighting to get out to the light. I was never discouraged or baffled about the why. I knew we had to use subconscious work to get patterns changed. I also knew that subconscious releasing was probably the only thing which would get her out of periodic binges of crisis and conflict. She had herself well hidden from her own subconscious programming. However, the shadow likes to give signs that it is there.

The media has recently been reporting conflict between two very powerful women in the news. Whether it is real conflict or media- fabricated conflict is not yet known. However, they are supposedly competitive with one another. Within the last week there have been some pictures of each in the news.

One of the competitors is sitting in a lime green robe with indigo violet trim. She has on orange shoes and orange pajama pants which can be seen under the robe. In looking at the color combinations, I took note of what this meant subconsciously: Positive transformation with courage and helped by spiritual sources.

In reading her message, it was that we are at the time of change and that it is time to start on self. Her message met the art colors right on, without her or her staff probably knowing that consciously.

The other competitor was also in a major magazine this week. She was at an event in a blue dress trimmed with orange. Her shoes are orange also. It was a very exaggerated outfit for her position in life and spoke volumes:

“Don’t mess with me or my passive aggressiveness will boomerang right back on you BIGTIME in an exaggerated manner.”

In looking at these two pictures I immediately knew which one would probably be more open to negotiation at the time the pictures were taken. Don’t you think having that knowledge would help you in life?

Art and Handwriting are direct subconscious connections

Also, it would be beneficial for you to look at the next picture. Rarely are people lucky enough to get a couple who are married standing side by side with their handwriting right there for interpretation under their respective pictures.

Through the power of the internet, some wonderful requests for mandala interpretation , tree drawing interpretation , and family of origin analysis happened between this Quarterly update and the last. The people sharing their information brought some very interesting examples of each of these scenarios to show how our subconscious can literally assist us with major understanding. This understanding is healing and a powerful catalyst for moving forward. The links to these parts of the website will assist each of you vicariously as you look and read.

The people who made these requests wrote back and stated that the interpretations helped them with where they are in life with identifiers removed by me…not them.

Cheryl,

I can tell how much time and energy you have put into our interpretations, and I will ponder them over and over. All of your advice is so sound. I cannot thank you enough for participating in the healing of my family.
 I am going to have mandalas be a part of the therapy work I do.  I feel like it would give a huge leg up in my helping and understanding them.  Thank you so much Cheryl, you will never know what the insight into myself and my children did for us.

Mandala energy lasts one year...it is a circle of what is in consciousness now...what is freeing up for consciousness...what is releasing...and what is in shadow when divided in fours.
 

Click Mandala Drawing to link to and see this Mother and her four children’s mandalas in the mandala site..

An interesting Tree Drawing came recently that clearly shows emotion.
Click
Tree drawing to see it and what it means…

An interesting request for a family of origin interpretation came in and it is included here .. click Family of origin interpreted

I felt their sharing was very beneficial to all who will experience their right brain healings and understandings. They have done enough without having to share their identifiers (names) also. It was a true honor to work with their material and the cities from which they came are reputed to be energy portals of powerful spiritual energy being brought in to help mankind. The areas are way away from one another.

We also have more trees and mandalas sent and these will be added to the site later. Will alert of new additions.

Enjoy the sharing from others by clicking all links, and I hope you are living a wonder-filled life.
