How To Meditate

HypnoBusters Blog January 10, 2014October 3, 2024How To Meditate

Here I will show you how to meditate…

What is meditation?

Meditation is similar to hypnotherapy, but it does have one major difference. The difference is that meditation aims to clear your mind of all thoughts, whereas hypnotherapy aims to add suggestions for therapeutic benefit. Meditation can be beneficial to everyone, from those who just want to add a little peace to their lives, to those with more serious problems like borderline personality disorder or recovering from an abusive relationship.

Benefits of meditation

The simple clearing of your mind has many fantastic benefits. Here’s a few of them…

Relieves stress

Most people have experienced excessive “mind chatter” where your mind can’t seem to relax and shut up. This can be very stressful. In part this is caused by the modern lifestyle. We constantly have stimulating things around us just as TV’s, phones, traffic, people etc. Every now and then we need some time out from this bombardment, and meditation is perfect for this.

Improve memory and concentration

Our memory and concentration improves with a calm mind. Imagine if a drill sergeant was screaming orders at you whilst you were trying to add up a shopping bill. It would be very difficult right? In a similar way a chattering mind makes it difficult to think properly.

Improve creativity

Your creativity is greatly enhanced with a calm still mind. That’s why Archimedes made his discovery about displacement whilst in the bath. He was relaxed, which allowed his creative mind to flow.

Improved physical health

It is well known that stress can hamper out immune system. Regular meditation can significantly reduce the amount of illnesses we contract.

How to meditate

There are many different ways to meditate. I’m going to show you a very simple breathing meditation…

Get yourself comfortable, either seated or led down – it’s up to you.
Close your eyes.
Place your hands gently on your stomach.
Breath in slowly, deeply and evenly. In through your nose, and out through your mouth.
Feel your stomach rise and fall with each breathe.
Keep breathing slowly, deeply, and evenly. Notice the difference in the temperature of the air as you breathe in, and as you breathe out.
Keep up this slow, deep, even breathing. Focus on the rise and fall of your stomach, and the different temperatures of your breathe. Do this for as long as you wish.

I promise you that even 5 minutes of this per day will make a dramatic difference to your health and happiness. Now you know how to meditate, why not give this a 7 day trial where you do this every day for a week. I would love to hear how this went for you.

If you want some more help meditating, I have created a good collection of different audio’s which guide you through learning new meditations…

How To Make Money From Your New Year’s Resolutions

HypnoBusters Blog January 6, 2014January 5, 2021

Would you like to be able to make some extra cash from your new year resolutions? This is a reality thanks to the internet.

The idea I’m going to talk about involves set up a blog. This blog’s content will follow you as you embark on your battle of your new year resolutions. If you can make it useful, entertaining, interesting and inspirational then you can make money from it.

(If you don’t want to set up a blog, you can still make money online selling products without a website.)

Method

All you need is a blog. There are many free options, such as http://www.blogger.com (run by Google) and http://wordpress.com. They are both very reputable and relatively straight forward to set up. You don’t need to be a computer programmer. You just need a little patience and a willingness to learn.

Once you have a blog, you can start updating it. The idea is to show the world your progress with your new year’s resolutions. Like a diary you can keep track of your day to day journey. You can write about your thoughts and feelings as well as your methods. Pictures of your progress are also good as people love pictures that tell a story.

Weight loss in particular is perfect for this idea because your visitors can track your progress using before and after pictures and stats, such as your measurements and weight. You could even film yourself being weighed every week. This provides proof to your visitors about whether your methods are working or not. This is important for trust, which I will discuss later.

The public like to follow peoples’ journey when pursuing a goal. They like to hear about their inner thoughts and feelings. This inspires and informs them. They can follow what works and doesn’t work for you. You can be an inspiration to thousands of people.

People will get to know you, which is great for building trust. When you have trust online, you can make money.

Affiliate marketing

In order to make money from your blog you can do what is known as affiliate marketing. This is where you earn a commission for selling someone’s product for them. The great thing about this is that it requires no money up front. So you can never be out of pocket. The worst you can possibly do is sell nothing and break even. You have nothing to lose. The affiliate vendor sorts out everything such as stock and delivery. You just provide the website traffic.

Imagine you wanted to sell the HypnoBusters product Gastric Band Hypnotherapy. You join the affiliate program (for free) and get an affiliate link that is unique to you. Then place this link on your blog. This might be as part of a banner, or as a text link.

When your visitors clicks on your unique affiliate link, they are taken to the product’s sales page. This is automatically tracked by the affiliate software. You are automatically credited with a percentage of the sale (50% in the case of HypnoBusters products) when your visitor makes a purchase. It’s all automatic, so you can literally earn money in your sleep!

Review a product

A really good way to make money with affiliate marketing is to try out the product yourself. You could use a product that has an affiliate program and try it over a period of time. You can then detail your progress when using it. Stats, pictures and inner thoughts. Show as much proof as you can about your results.

If your new year resolution is to quit smoking, you could try a quit smoking product and detail what it did for you. Allow people to see for themselves how the product performed. If it worked well then you can recommend it based on your results. You can link to it with your special affiliate link and earn a percentage commission for every sale you generate.

HypnoBusters affiliate program is perfect for this. There is a product that can help with practically any new years resolution. The beauty is that even if a person clicks on your link and buys a different product to what you are selling (which happens quite often), you still get commission for the sale. This gives you more chance to sell than a website with just one product.

Promoting your blog

In order to make a good amount from your blog you must get lots of visitors. There are many ways to do this and I can’t possibly cover them all here. You can find a few more suggestions here – how to promote a blog post.

One of the best ways is to use social networks like Facebook, Twitter and Google+. Don’t just add a link to your content though. Write a few words that will grab peoples’ interest and will get a discussion going, then add your link with this.

Also if you publish a good picture on your blog post, this should appear on Facebook and Google +. This helps attract even more attention.

Be really active in discussing your post or anything else that people want to talk about. This massively helps increase interest in your content.

Final thoughts

Making a blog detailing your journey with your new year’s resolution can really gain you a loyal following. The good thing is that it is unique because it is about you. It will not be like any other blog out there.

You must do it with honesty and integrity. Put the effort in and lay yourself bare. People will become inspired by your efforts and hopefully will visit you often to see how you’re doing, and tell others about you too.

Remember that peoples’ time is precious online. There is almost an infinite amount of material for them to read, so you have to give them a good reason to visit you. Do good work and people will visit and you will make money. Allow them to get to know you, and be interested in your goals, and learn from you. Help them with their goals too, and you will have a loyal following of friends forever. Good luck!

Why It’s Hard To Stick To Your New Year’s Resolutions

HypnoBusters Blog January 2, 2014December 28, 2020Why It's Hard To Stick To Your New Year's Resolutions

Most people are full of good intentions when it’s a new year. They may want to lose weight, quit smoking, or earn more money. But when it comes to action, this enthusiasm often fizzles out. Why is it so hard to stick to your new years resolutions, even when you want this change?

You haven’t told your subconscious mind

We basically have 2 sides to our mind we use to make decisions. It’s your conscious and subconscious minds. Before I move on, I’ll give you a brief explanation of them both.

Conscious mind – Is the part responsible for your logical thinking. It’s also the voice in your head when you speak to yourself. Your conscious mind is the part of your mind that you use for doing maths and solving logical problems.

Subconscious mind – Is the part responsible for your automatic flowing thoughts. It’s what lets you catch a ball without thinking. Or breathe with no conscious thought. Your subconscious mind also controls your automatic fears, habits and urges. Your subconscious mind might trigger an automatic fear response when you see a spider, even though your conscious mind knows its not dangerous.

Caught in two minds

The problem when someone wants to make a change is that usually only their conscious mind knows this. This catches them literally in two minds. Their conscious mind wants to quit smoking, eat less or exercise more, but their subconscious mind wants to continue. Your subconscious mind likes pleasure, and often doesn’t understand why you’d want to deny yourself.

When caught in two minds, there’s only one winner. Your subconscious mind keeps sending automatic urges, over and over again, nagging away at you. Irresistible cravings take over almost every thought. Eventually most people crack and succumb to these urges. And the new year’s resolution goes out the window.

Hypnotherapy can help!

A big part of a hypnotherapist’s work is telling someone’s subconscious mind what they consciously want. A patient may wish to quit smoking (on a conscious level). I tell their subconscious mind of their conscious desire to quit smoking.

Once your subconscious mind is on board, it’s much easier to stick to your resolutions. Your conscious and subconscious minds are in harmony. So there’s no more subconscious nagging.

How to help yourself

A great way to tell your subconscious mind what you want is by visualisation. Visualise the positive end of what you want. For instance if you want to lose weight, don’t visualise yourself starving and doing gruelling exercises. This won’t entice your subconscious mind to cooperate. Instead visualise yourself at your ideal weight, as clearly as you can, feeling all the nice benefits of this. Looking great, attracting others etc. It’s not essential, but if you learn self hypnosis, this helps make the visualisation brighter and bolder. The message is more likely to be understood by your subconscious mind.

It’s a great idea to leave yourself reminders of your goals. You may have a goal that you want to make more money to buy a luxury house. First visualise the house of your dreams as if you already own it. It’s a good idea to do this every day for the first week, then about once a week after that. (This is just a general rule of thumb. You may want to do more.)

Once you have visualised this, get pictures of what you want your house to look like and leave them in prominent places. If you work at your computer, then it is great place to leave a picture. This will inspire you when you work.

Many experts agree that if you consciously force yourself to change a habit for 28 days, this new habit ingrains itself into your subconscious mind and becomes automatic. So if you have the willpower, force yourself into this change for 28 days. After this, things should be much easier.

Final thoughts

In order to stick to your new years resolutions, you must have both your conscious and subconscious minds working towards the same goal. Any conflict between the two is likely to see your subconscious win in the end. And you return to your old behaviours.

Find a way to get your subconscious mind to want the same thing as your conscious mind, and it’s far easier to make a permanent change.
