Does Anyone Else Feel Like Everything Has Changed?

December 28, 2022 by Mark Shepard

I don’t know about you, but there is this strange and overwhelming feeling that the world we live in is about to radically change… and it’s not going to be pretty.

I’m doing my best to stay hopeful and positive as well as to take MASSIVE action in order to create something healthy and sustainable. Check out my HealingPastures.org website or my HealingPasturesFarm Youtube channel to see what I’m doing to grow food without the chemical inputs that conventional farming uses.

But the bottom line is we need to be flexible and resourceful in our THINKING. What that means to me is Hypnosis.

Not mass hypnosis but SELF hypnosis. Mastering our Minds for a change. Because ultimately everything and anything that happens outside of ourselves exists in our minds. How we think about ourselves and the world affects us more than most care to admit.

Something is changing. And perhaps it’s  the monetary system. Or the fact that more and more people seem to know less and less about how to actually cook food, much less GROW IT.

As someone with 20 years worth of experience overcoming my own anxiety as well as helping clients, friends and family deal with theirs, it bears repeating that “Anxiety is thinking about what you don’t want to have happen, and making those thoughts and images big and bright and close on your mental movie screen and looping the program over and over.”

What if we look beyond the “Something big is coming and it’s going to be bad…” and imagine a future that is actually BETTER than our present day?

What if the monetary system actually gets fixed? What if young people actually learned how to farm and cook and fix the machines that could help us get through any crises?

Just a thought.

Why does it work out better than we can possibly imagine?

yours truly,

Money: Humanity’s Biggest Illusion

December 6, 2022 by Mark Shepard

MONEY is an illusion.

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the fact that money is actually a form of mass hypnosis. Every year like the proverbial frog in a pot of water that is slowly being raised in temperature, our Fiat money system is stealing our wealth. This video does a great job of explaining what’s really going on.

the solution is to convert your paper money into other forms of storage that hold their value better. Not quite as easy to do as it is to say.

But the first step is to wake up to what’s actually going on. Let me know what you think.

peace,

– Mark

How To Get Over A Breakup IMPORTANT Course Update

October 16, 2021 by Mark Shepard

I got an email from Caroline in Ireland who recently checked out my “How To Get Over A Breakup” course. Somehow in the midst of a busy life I’d managed to mess up one of the modules. And by “mess up” I mean a KEY component of Module 4 was missing.  THE key video that actually DELIVERED the technique that I was teaching. How to stop focusing on the loss, or the ex, or the belief that “I’ll never find anybody to love me” kind of emotional/cognitive “Loops” that we get stuck in… How to literally blast that pattern out of your neurology.

Pretty serious screwup. (Grateful to Caroline for letting me know! I’ve only been selling this course for FIVE years and NO ONE ever mentioned it MIGHT be missing a key video!)

Since it was a while ago… figuring out WHERE the heck the original files were on one of my many “backup” hard drives seemed like it would take more time than just redoing the darn thing…

So I re-did it. Got my white board and camera and went down to the river to do it live and in person.

That done, I added it to the course…. And of course (pun intended) the next day I had some more ideas as well as a question from ANOTHER course member which got me deep into “flow state” so I made 2 more videos.

So I want to share these 3 updates to one of my best selling courses so you can

a. experience what I do

b. get some help if you need it getting over any one, any thing, any time you find yourself stuck in an emotional loop or rut. This is one of the best tools for breaking out of the breakup emotional dumpster diving state that we all get stuck in from time to time.

c. get inspired by the idea that there IS hope! You CAN let go and move one in a healthy POSITIVE way after the end of a relationship.

Let me know if you have questions! Contact me

If you find these useful I highly encourage you to check out this course: How To Get Over A Breakup

A Musical Hypnosis Session for Peak Performers?

September 19, 2019 by Mark Shepard

Yeah. That’s what this is. It’s literally a hypnosis session in a song format…THIS is why they call me the “Singing Hypnotist”…

Even if this song is not your favored musical style, listen to it over and over again… or watch it over and over again… there have been days and weeks when I just had it playing softly in the background. Your unconscious mind hears EVERYTHING. So USE that. Let this get stuck in your head. “Ear Worms” don’t have to be annoying they can be powerful tools to keep you on track without you having to consciously THINK about it.

 

Also, remember that most performance issues are based on some pattern or habit of anxious thinking. Anxiety is thinking about what you do NOT want to have happen and your body responding to that powerful suggestion with all the same fight or flight chemistry that real bad events would cause if they were actually happening…  to learn more about how you can take charge of your own “head trash” and DUMP it, check out my best selling online hypnosis course, “How to CRUSH anxiety NOW!”

Help for Peak Performance For Athletes with Mental Blocks or Glitches

September 11, 2019 by Mark Shepard

Almost every Fall I get calls from desperate parents of peak performance high school and college athletes desperate for help. The usual scenario is that their daughter or son suddenly can’t do something that they used to be able to do. Call it a mental block or a performance “glitch,” Chuck Knobloch syndrome, or being a “head case,” it’s a cause of deep pain and concern. Whether it’s a specific tumble or move in gymnastics, cheerleading, baseball, figure skating, or even in the arts of Ballet, music or theater, they used to do this one thing spectacularly but now they can’t seem to do it at all. At stake is often hundreds of dollars in college scholarships or championship games that they will be “benched” for, the pain and suffering is real. The pressure is real. The pattern is starting to sink in and depression and discouragement are getting heavier and heavier.

The solution is not to search the world wide web for some “miracle worker” or sports psychologist or hypnotist who can “fix” it. The solution is for the student to learn to run their own mind.

That’s where I come in. Most of the “experts” have never experienced anything remotely like the blocks or neurological interference that these athletes or performers are experiencing.

I have.

In fact I never even had a chance to became an athlete because I did exactly the kinds of things with my mind in elementary school that caused me to want to quit that these kids are doing NOW.

I also did the same self sabotaging neurological processes with my musical performing.

But ultimately I had to learn how to run my OWN mind.

So that’s what I do with athletes. I first explore with them HOW they are doing the problem. This is usually an unconscious process until I help them to tease it out of themselves.

Then I can teach them the same tools that I’ve used now for over 20 years and that I’ve taught to countless others in person and online.

My suggestion if you or your child is struggling with this is to check out my “How To CRUSH anxiety NOW!” course and practice those tools and techniques.

Sports performance blocks are 99% of the time Performance Anxiety. Anxiety is focusing your mind on what you DO NOT want to have happen. Changing your focus is a PRACTICE that anyone can do. But most people don’t realize that THEY are the cause of their blocks or what in the world they can do to break through them and get back to winning.

Anyway, THIS song is actually a hypnosis session all about this. Give it a listen. No. It’s not “hip hop.” It’s not the most modern “cool” crunchy urban grunge rhythm. But it DOES work.

It works because it’s filled with “Why” and “how” questions which combined with music get “stuck” in the rostromedial prefrontal cortex of your brain.

The Hypnosis of Credit Cards (humor, sort of)

January 7, 2019 by Mark Shepard

Have you ever wondered why credit cards are so addictive?

It’s a highly hypnotic process that fools us into spending more than we have for things we think we have to have right now.

As a highly suggestible hypnotic subject, I have fallen for the credit card scheme too many times. Back in the late 1980’s I actually bought a house with credit cards… remind me to tell you that story some day…. but in the meantime this short video is almost humorous.

One of the projects I’m working on right now is a program called, “The Hypnosis of Money” and it seems like the entire WORLD is drowning in so many layers and types of debt that the whole thing is literally a “hall of Mirrors in a House of Cards…”

Watch for my new song and music video, “Welcome to Amerika” coming soon!

If you have any questions about how hypnosis can help you to change the financial habits and patterns that have held you prisoner for so long reach out to me! I promise to respond personally.
