0:25 The DeMystification Description Offered Today, a solo episode where the focus is about YOU. What does that feel like? What does it look like? Being you...

0:49 How do you feel saying"I am." 

1:00 Am I being controversial by participating in this"I am" craze? Are you triggered or upset by this taboo fad? 

1:29 Why does everyone care so much how you finish those 3 Simple Letters, those 2 Itty Bitty Teeny Tiny Words? Why, why is it so important to know every aspect, every fiber of what"I am" means to you?

2:03 It's time to go inward and think about what "I am” means to you.

2:15 "I am sorry."  was how I used to end the "I am" statements until I figured out who I really am

2:30 “I am not what you say I am.” Was my main motivator for how I discovered my most authentic self. How I describe and choose to feel when I say “I am.”

3:00 When we look at what we are saying when we say, "I am" at the very beginning, at the seed of change within the capacity of knowing what that means to you, and how "you are" statements have affected you. "You are" statements must be separated from the subconscious mind. Those statements that completely created who you are today, in your mind. Well those who were the most important very often said you are to you.

4:05 Imagine back to the first time...way back to when "you are" probably sounded loving. "You are so special". "You are perfect." "What a cute baby you are."... Go back in your memories, go back far enough ...to the nurturing and loving statements.

4:50 Through no fault of your own, you grew up, didn't you. Every day in every way your body and your mind grew bigger and older and your brain stopped acting like a sponge and your body eventually ended up what your body has ended up.

5:15 Now all of a sudden the child hears, “you are” in very confusing ways. You are lazy spoiled. You are not trying hard enough.  Well, I am not sure what “you are” statements created who you are today. Do you think they are true?

5:41 When we hear "you are" and feel an internal need to fight back, when we feel the rage begin to boil, a need to prove them wrong. That is not how we find our authentic, our true, “I am” statements.

6:11 I am not what you say I am. I am not lazy. I am not spoiled. I am not selfish. Whatever you fought back with. That isn’t who you are. By knowing who you are not. By knowing what you are not. You haven’t yet actually experienced who and what you are.

6:47 The most beautiful and amazing thing about hypnotic coaching in my personal experience has been The Transformational Process of seeing each and every one of my clients figure out who they are.

🎼I am strong 🎼 I am the greatest🎼

7:10 I didn't know that’s what I was doing. In the beginning. I am going to confess. I thought I was helping people lose weight. Quit smoking. Getting over heartache. What I am really doing, what I love about my job, is removing the confusion of who somebody actually is that allows them to stop fighting about who they are not. Because all that battling is stealing your joy, it is stealing your shine. 

8:06 as soon as I knew accepted and loved my I am the way I am now, well it simply became so easy to stop arguing with people who refuse to see me. Other People’s Perspectives are not my responsibility. Other People’s Perspectives are not your fault (OPPs) Each and every single brain has its own thing going on. Focus on yours. Focus on YOU!

9:00 by doing that...the ripple effects will be amazing, enjoy getting to know who you really are. Thank you for focusing on you!

Thank you for joining in the conversation today. Thank you for focusing on yourself today.

0:10 Sharon's quote:

0:30 My Belief is we all need to celebrate our many differences, so as not to be intimidated by the perception of too many similarities. We each discuss our own YOUnique qualities within our chosen profession. 

0:56 Dawn's journey, in her dedication to helping people. From special education to becoming a professional hypnotist. The intersection of what is possible in the classroom. Dawn contributes "a long history" to our profession.

2:25 Joan Ann's YOUnique perspective began as a nursery nurse. She and her husband decided date-night would be college and she ended up with two masters! Joan Ann shares her similarities with Dawn's story, and the wiser-self's knowledge of, "I wish I knew then what I know now." As one of 13 children, Joan Ann has always brought a lot of experience to the table.

3:33 Sharon's YOUnique perspective shares the overall perspective of the breadcrumbs that lead her to becoming a hypnotist. You will definitely want to hear her explain how as a Doctor of Pharmacy her patients were coming to her on so many medications but not being well. It is the mind, body, approach. Self-Love intersects with Self-Hypnosis.

5:10 My story of survival that lead up to my becoming a hypnotist. I briefly share about what I call my background of 'experiential trauma'. I admit about not being able to go outside, due to the level of anxiety looping in my brain, 6 years ago.

6:24 "The Trajectory of change."  It is the belief system that allows the change to occur. I thank our change makers for what they are doing.

7:17 Trauma finds everyone, at some level. Joan Ann and I have a bit of back-and-forth clarifying what each of us is saying.

8:04 Client Trauma Story Time begins with Joan Ann's Pan Am Client who ONLY lived because she disobeyed her father!

9:20 I share a teenager's joke that leads to his confession of almost watching his father burn to death.

10:00 we are not allowed to be trauma therapists. yet every human experiences trauma, at some level, at some point.

10:33 I share a story of a Columbine School Shooting Survivor who now sends her children to school near where she ONLY missed the tragedy due to being disobedient and cutting class.

10:55  "trigger trigger trigger"

11:20 "That's Thee Power Of Hypnosis!"

11:25 Dawn's realization that all the children she worked with over the years lived entire lives of trauma. 

12:00 Joan Ann says the most profoundly important comment of the entire podcast. "If only it were covered by insurance."

12:08 Sharon's final comment about patients taking "like 20 medications" is a very close second, and should get the listener questioning, where do you find your healthiest self? How do you feel well? Are you where you want to be? 

                                            "What's missing is the mind!"

0:32 The Windy Introduction to the episode, Jen learns not to record during storms. ;)

1:05 Dawn's "Transformational Moment" a story about a client's spiritual journey with the self-hypnotic process created by Cal Banyan known as 7th Path. 

2:19 the conversation becomes a discussion regarding 7th-Path self-hypnosis and spirituality

2:55 Sharon discusses her personal experiences with her 7th-Path practice while using a sauna, 

3:17 Sharon continues about  the joy of Time Distortion

3:30 I admit my own journey down the path

3:56 Joan Ann, this party's only qualified instructor talks about her trainings, so far with a look forward to what is to come

4:58 Joan Ann talks about her own medical diagnosis with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome that most can't believe because of her practice of 7th-Path

5:18 The emotional side of this episode is exposed

6:07  We finally talk about how "All Hypnosis is Self-Hypnosis"  Mindset Management is the gift we give our clients.

6:40 How we all define what hypnosis is, to us: "extreme mindfulness" , we hear Jen trip over her tongue detailing how hypnosis allows us to be mindful in the past, we can be mindful in the future, which allows us the ability to be mindfully present. ...was what she was trying to say. (; 

7:17 Joan Ann's quote regarding not being able to control negative thoughts, controlling the subconscious rather than being controlled by the subconscious

7:37 I get serious for a moment about what I want...I quote Donna Bloom about being the Master of your Mind, the Boss of your Brain!

8:15 Imagination ...you have it!

8:30 Sharon defines hypnosis as "Mindfulness With Intention" 

8:50 Dawn finalizes our thoughts on 7th-Path which starts the conversation on SLEEP!!! Why the moments right before we fall asleep and right as we wake up those moments are our most easily hypnotizable. (another tongue tier for Jen.)

10:15 Jen finally shares an embarrassing story about one of her first clients...because she's been asked too many times over the years, she's finally willing to share. (Thanks to an Authority Magazine interview that you can read here The 5 Things Anyone Can Do To Optimize Their Mental Wellness if you are interested.)
