Hypnosis For Habit Change

Changing Beliefs with NLP Live Training

August 4, 2016 by Mark Shepard

54653357_mlChanging Limiting Beliefs With NLP

Once You decide to go on your adventure of a life time…
Once you accept the call to enter the arena of your life…
Once you acknowledge your desire to be, do and have more…

What often happens is old patterns and beliefs, negative self talk and plain lack of skill or experience threaten to shut the whole thing down… Some people try to use affirmations to force themselves to “be positive”. But if you don’t have conflicting beliefs at the unconscious level, then you don’t need to mumble a bunch of affirmations.

That’s why we need to be aware of what our limiting beliefs are and have some effective tools for clearing them and installing new, empowered, helpful, resourceful beliefs that can support us and empower us to take the next step…

Because on every journey, in every life “stuff” happens that doesn’t always seem good… It is our BELIEFS about ourselves and what happens that can totally and completely change our reality so that we can actually take the next step… and the next step… and the next… and the next…

The following program was taught live at the TRansformation Nation World Headquarters in an undisclosed location… and for a limited time, you can gain access through this secret portal… Let’s begin.

How To “Surf” Your Job

November 19, 2015 by Mark Shepard

25459860_m

Here’s today’s fresh and groovy video… In it I continue to explore the idea of interrupting routines and habits with a radical idea about how to turn your “job” into “surfing”…

Some people have found a way to make a living surfing…

Some people have found a way to make surfing into a “job”…

Some people have found a way to turn their “Job” into “surfing…

Try it. You might like it…

Routines and habits can be tremendously helpful and they are literally the result of you training your unconscious mind over a period of time, so that you can stop using up your precious conscious mind attention (which has some limitations believe me) and let your MASSIVE unconscious mind just add it to its automated “programming”.

The challenge is when you’ve gone through a ton of effort to turn something (like smoking or biting your nails) into a habit, and then realizing that you want to stop it.

You’ve got to understand a little bit about how you’re wired in order to “make it so”.

so the practice of interrupting routines is a good place to start “loosening things up”.

Most of us spend MOST of our time at work or working. So it’s a good place to adjust our attitudes.

Todays Challenge is to find a way to turn exactly what you are doing right now for work into “surfing”.

How can you do the absolute best job you can with no attachment to praise or getting a raise. To just surf the wave of work with the utmost grace, elegance, élan, and joy today?

I’m talking about just one day. No big commitment. Try it and see if you like it…

SURF’S UP!

I’ll see  YOU on the INSIDE! Cowabungah!

Habit Change

November 18, 2015 by Mark Shepard

37057223_mHey Fabulous One, Welcome to whenever you are reading this!

We are continuing to shake up routines today.

So, watch the video first, then read my brilliant thoughts below it…

When people think about hypnosis they usually think about it as a way of changing habits.

And it is. Faster. Easier. Better.

But the majority of people kind of believe in it like its some kind of magic voodoo thing where the hypnotist “makes” them change. The reality is far more interesting. The person who says they want to make the change, will only make the change if they want to make the change.

Smoking is a habit. When people want to quit, they are actually not quitting cigarettes so much as they are retraining their unconscious mind to let go of the habit of smoking.

Overeating is a habit. When people want to lose weight they often attempt to change their habitual way of eating and moving (or not moving as the case may be). Weight loss is more challenging than smoking cessation because there are usually multiple changes that need to be made in multiple areas of your life.

Anxiety is a habit. It is habitual, vivid repetitions, of what you do not want, played out on your internal movie screen. Your body reacts biochemically to the habitual focus on doomsday scenarios and the body needs less and less reminding to create the habitual fight, or flight hormones a pumpin’.

So when I say it’s a good practice to consciously PRACTICE changing things up in very small ways. It’s just one of many ways I’m attempting to give your power back to you so you can stop doing the stuff that stops you and start doing the stuff that will lead you to the health, wealth and love that you say  you want.

So your assignment, should you choose to accept it, is to do something differently in the next 24 hours. And then repeat. See what else begins to change as you demonstrate to your unconscious mind that change is actually fun. At the very least it’s more interesting than doing the same old thing and expecting a different result. LOL.

Peace out,

– Mark

Other People’s Opinions About YOUR Life

November 3, 2015 by Mark Shepard

Other People’s Opinions About YOUR Life

Have you ever noticed that some people can be totally counted on to “rain on your parade?” Everybody has an opinion about everything. Particularly when it comes to YOU doing something new, brave, or different with your life. It’s one of the most dependable facts of life, kind of like death and taxes, “people” will always find something to “kvetch” about, so expect it, be prepared for it and put it in it’s place…

I just went for a ride on the new bike path in my town. as wonderful as this project is, that turned an old abandoned train track into a walking and biking path, some people have found fault with it.

“Now it’s going to be CROWDED…” some of them have said.

And ultimately its and AWESOME gift to this community. People can ride their bikes without having to “argue” with cars and trucks. Folks can walk and talk and get out in the sunshine. It’s great!

But sure enough someone, somewhere will find something wrong with it.

The point is in your own life, OTHER people will have OPINIONS about YOU. And part of becoming a Master of Your Own Mind is to smile, acknowledge their “helpful” comments… and then TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY IGNORE THEM!

Obey YOUR own COMMANDS. Be FABULOUS. You don’t need anybody else’s permission.

Dealing With Change

October 14, 2015 by Mark Shepard

IMG_0439
A pic from my Monday Canoeing adventure…

AHHHHH… The Change of Seasons…

Here in the Northeast, we deal with change every three months or so… and in many ways it keeps things fresh. It keeps us on our toes. I reminds us that CHANGE is the one constant thing in this adventure we call “our lives”.

There’s a saying around here, “Hey if you don’t like the weather, wait 15 minutes.”

Speaking of change, I got a new camera yesterday and as I unpacked it and attempted to figure out how to use it (without looking at the manual)… I realized… well… this may be a bit embarrassing to admit….

BUT SOMETIMES YOU NEED TO LOOK AT THE DAMN MANUAL….

Oh but NO ONE GIVES US A “MANUAL” for LIVING OUR LIVES!

And I’m sure someone could say, “well, that’s what the Bible or the Bagadvad Gita or the Koran is.” And yes perhaps. However, we are dealing with change in our lives right now at an unprecedented rate in all of human history. Please understand I appreciate all of our ancient books of wisdom. This is not a criticsm, just a reflection on the fact that they were mostly written thousands of years ago. And we actually have a map of how our neurology responds to change and processes the information in our external world but because everybody is so overwhelmed with the daily task of just living in the midst of information overload, it seems like very few people actually have any conscious clue about how to deal with it.

That’s what I’m intending this website and my courses addressing. And what I love about all of this is that teaching people how to master their own minds for a change, gently forces ME to really learn it myself and practice it EVERY single day…

So here I was with this new camera, it took me 15 minutes just to figure out how to attach the little string that keeps the lens cap from disappearing!

Eventually I figured things out enough to make you a fresh  “test drive” video this morning.

What came up in the process was how challenging even small changes can be. :o)

Here’s the short video I made with a helpful Mind Mastery Daily Tip for you…

Your assignment, should you choose to accept it, is to take a moment to learn something new on some gizmo like a phone or a camera or a remote control or whatever. That’s it. Take a deep breath and learn something new. LOL

or just learn something new about ANYTHING. Or heck, REMEMBER something new you learned yesterday or last week and practice doing it better.

Now on to other new things!

– Mark

P.S. A Long Distance Transformation Nation shout out to Ian from the UK! As well as all of you who I hear from regularly. BTW have I mentioned lately that I LOVE to hear from you? I don’t need approval or praise. I DO LOVE to hear how you are all using these ideas and sharing them with your loved ones, I LOVE answering your questions. AND… as a result of several of you asking me questions about various challenges I am focusing my new course development on what you actually need and want. THAT feels deeply congruent and on target for me. so THANK YOU!!!
