Why Do I Keep Doing This!!?: End Bad Habits, Negativity and Stress with Self-Hypnosis and NLP
The one thing prevents people from doing what they want to do is most usually the fact that people simply aren't skilled in managing their minds. Hypnosis relaxes and quiets the mind's chatter and will help to ultimately access the qualities and strengths we already possess. NLP will spell out those strategies step by step. The concepts and mechanisms of hypnosis and the principles of NLP make for effective approaches to self-hypnosis.
Part I covers information about hypnosis and NLP. You will learn easy methods for going into a relaxation state (trance), visualizing results, giving yourself suggestions, and coming out of a trance. The CD that comes with the book features a self-hypnosis trance training that guides you through various methods of trance induction. Part II includes 16 self-hypnosis applications most often used in hypnotherapy, such as habits and addictions, smoking, overeating, insomnia, procrastination, emotional difficulties, pain management, and much more.

About the author
Judith E. Pearson
5 books1 followerMy varied career has given me skills in editing, writing, coaching, psychology, public speaking, training, and project management. Today I combine these skills and experiences to bring professional expertise and insight to free-lance writing, copyediting, and proofreading.
For over 20 years I worked in Department of Defense contracting and consulting firms; first as a research specialist and eventually became a project manager. My last position (of four years) was as Project Manager/Writer for the US Air Force Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization.
During those years, I completed a doctoral degree in psychology (from Catholic University of America), became a Licensed Professional Counselor, and managed a part-time practice, offering life coaching and counseling services and serving as a mental health provider to Employee Assistance Programs. I obtained certification as a Master Practitioner and Trainer in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), becoming a part-time trainer in hypnotherapy and NLP. For three summers I taught for Webster University’s Master’s Program in Counseling as an adjunct faculty member. I left DoD contracting in 2004 to continue my practice on a full-time basis, and retired from practice in 2018.
As a member of Toastmasters International since 1985, I have earned the title of Distinguished Toastmaster and have held leadership positions and won awards for competitive speaking. I have published numerous articles in The Toastmaster. I have learned how to write, present, and evaluate speeches and to train public speakers.
Since 1984, I have put my writing skills to use, publishing over 200 reviews and articles in magazines, journals, blogs, and newsletters. I have published three books with an international publisher. I am currently a co-editor for an international history journal. Because my husband is a retired Navy officer, I am active in the Naval Order of the United States. For ten years I have served on the executive council for the National Capital Commandery and I am a copyeditor for the national magazine.
