Getting sick to your stomach is one of the most unpleasant experiences going. Yet did you know that in certain cases hypnosis may offer significant relief?

The body is purging itself of something it recognizes as harmful and this

A popular practice in weight loss is that of having 'cheat days," where you intentionally plan to deviate from your diet plan from time to time. Is this a good idea?

A new brain imaging study at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston has shown that consuming walnuts acts upon a brain center that regulates hunger and cravings, the findings were published online in the journal Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism. Volunteers consumed about a half cup of walnuts mixed into a smoothie for 5 consecutive days. Patients receiving the walnut smoothie reported significantly decreased feelings of hunger during the week they consumed when compar

Every sport has both a physical game and a mental game, so its no surprise many top athletes have used the services of a professional hypnotist to bump their performance to the next level. Now hypnosis will not transform an athlete who is unwilling to put in the blood, sweat and tears necessary in training into a top performer. Where it can be invaluable is for what is called "state management." When you experience excessive fear and stress, it can be nearly impossible to acc

"Argue for your limitations, and sure enough they're yours."-Richard Bach During a continuing education lecture I once attended the instructor discussed language patterns that change or sustain, something we were told to be mindful of when conducting private or group sessions. As the name implies, change language is all about moving past the place you feel stuck in right now to the place you want to be. It focuses on existing strengths and creating new strategies.

I've received some puzzled looks over the years when mentioning that I assist people in learning to cope better with having tinnitus, a chronic ringing or buzzing of the years. Sure, most people have heard of using hypnosis to stop smoking, lose weight or overcome fears, but tinnitus? Tinnitus itself is not a disease, but rather a symptom. It is always essential that you receive a full medical workup before trying any self-help methods since in rare instances tinnitus can be

The magnetic resonance imaging machine or MRI is a medical innovation that has enabled doctors to receive detailed views of tissues and structures within the body to a degree that wasn't possible previously. However, due to the confined tube the patient has to lie in during the testing and the loud noise the machine produces, many patients are so anxious they cannot go through the procedure. Fortunately this type of fear can be reduced so that a patient can feel comfortable e
