Its Friday again, it’s almost the weekend.

So for the first time I had a block on what I would write today. When I write what I write, there is no plan. It’s a thought that comes up and then I type and type away. I find it to be the best way as I trust my unconscious to help me along in the writing process. I then can blame spelling mistakes on my unconscious . My thoughts are 100 times quicker than my hands as a type. And I struggle to get everything out of my head to my laptop.

I think it’s a bit of trance when I write, it seems to flow. It’s just like when I see my clients, I don’t know what I’m going to say, but it seems to come out just the way it needs too. I’m always aware of why I say it to understand it, but not how it just comes to me. And if you have been on my trainings and seminars you will know this is true then also.

So maybe this is why I have the block. (Honestly this just came to me). Maybe it’s to talk about trusting your unconscious mind.

That’s one thing I do very well. I trust my mind and body to serve me and help me be the best I can be. Yes there are something’s I need work on but overall I trust and love my unconscious mind as it’s done so much for me in the past.

Ever had that gut feeling to do something or not to do something?

Ever had an intuition about someone or some situation?

Well you will now know if you experienced it, that when you go against your intuition or gut instinct it usually goes against you. But when you go with it, you trust it, things seem to flow and happen how things should happen.

So maybe the theme of this blog is – to trust yourself more. Do not only rely on other peoples expectations. Do not only rely on what only your best friend thinks, your mum or dad, your brother or sibling. Go inside and ask yourself what to do and notice what you feel.

Feeling that feeling will be the safest bet in my view, especially over other peoples advice, as they may have different agendas or at the very least not know all the information.

So go ahead, and develop that connection with yourself. It takes just a small amount of time each day.

Take 5-10 minutes when you wake up or as you go to sleep to be still. Notice what you feel. Ask questions about the answers you need and always have more love for your unconscious each time you do so. That connection, that 5-10 minutes will be a transformation of a life time.

We all get caught up in life’s problems – don’t we?

We can lose ourselves and lose sight on what’s real and what’s important.

What is important?

Well to me it’s Happiness, the feelings of joy, fulfilment and contentment.

Here’s the thing, lets for the blogs sake call the above happiness. Happiness is a state of mind; it’s a way of thinking and feeling and more importantly – Being.

But what do we do?

We get caught up in the ‘doing’ instead. We try to reach the states of being and happiness by the act of doing. We focus on what we have to do next by the behaviours we run. Although I go on about ‘taking action’ to achieve our goals, if we are not in a state of being, happiness or gratitude as a beginning things do not always go our way. I believe when at the core of us we are in a state of being and feeling we then allow things to be attracted to us. Our brain (consciously and unconsciously) is connected in finding more things that allow us to be happy. This in turn will create the behaviours that will support us, allow us to be aligned and feel congruent.

If we do not feel the ‘beingness’ as a core, as a start, we then access states of frustration, hopelessness even anger. That will then get us caught up in the behaviours that do not support us.

Think about this as a hierarchy.

Number 1) Our core state (before all labels, before all behaviours or identity)

Number 2) Our Identity (who we perceive to be)

Number 3) Our beliefs and Values

Number 4) Our behaviours

Number 5) Our results

If we start out on Behaviours (Number 4 on the hierarchy) we lose the above, our beliefs, our identity and more importantly our core – Beingness, Happiness and so on.

So are your acting from your core?

If you are not – stop right now, and go inside and pay attention for a little while. Notice the inner feelings, feelings to be uncovered.

What is the core state or feeling that allows you to feel good no matter what?

What core state is it that allows you to go through all, without doubt or fear?

Then when you have that feeling, state, symbol for it. Sit inside the feeling and then just ‘Be’ for a while. The more you act and react in this feeling the more it becomes a habit, a core state in motion.

Emotion = Energy in motion.

Is your energy (core state) creating the right motion (behaviour)?

It’s all yours to discover….

Life has a habit of throwing me, you and everyone events that seem to put us in our place, make us feel isolated and feel generally stuck.

They can come at us out of the blue, or sometimes they have been bubbling beneath waiting to be unleashed when we do not suspect it or want it.

So yes, ‘stuff’ happens in our live.

We have to remember life is an experience, an experience that holds many points. It’s our subjective experience of those events that get us caught up, cause to feel stuck. But there’s other people now matter what they go through act and react in a way that they see it as just a challenge they can and will overcome.

My favourite all time Comedian is Bill Hicks who passed away early on in live, he had this quote which has always stuck with me.

“The world is like a ride at an amusement park. It goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it’s very brightly coloured and it’s very loud and its fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time, and they begin to question: Is this real, or is this just a ride? And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, they say, “Hey – don’t worry, don’t be afraid, ever, because, this is just a ride…”

Life’s ‘stuff’, is the slow ride up to the scary high point of the ride. But it’s a ride, an experience, it’s something we can go with and remember this is a ride.

Remember this is a ride.

It doesn’t mean we should not take life seriously, because we should, but not so serious that we feel stuck and can’t change our circumstances.

We can change everything, we can change the world, and we can be the ride.

It’s all about how your perceive life, how you react to it. Do react with positive mindset? Do you react with hope and gratitude? Do you react in a way that allows you to be the creator? Do you react in a way that this is a ride and I can be a do what I wish as this is a ride.

There’s a whole lot of bad things happening in the world, but we should not act or react to it by being fearful, resentful or feeling hopeless. That just breeds more fear, resent and hopelessness. Seize it, make a difference, and do what Ghandi once said.

“Be the change you want to see in the world”

Imagine having all the things you wanted

More importantly imagine having all the internal resources, empowering beliefs and behaviours that get you all the things you want.

I would say 90%-95% only think of wanting all the things they want, and never go to work on themselves which will allow them to achieve them.

People forget to realize that the inner beliefs, the feelings you feel and the behaviours you act out is the exact key to achieve anything you want.

Why don’t we work on ourselves?

Why do we not focus on the inner world of us and only focus on the outer physical world?

I used to have quote in my room to remind me every day of this. It went something like this:

When I focus on the internal/inner world of me, and have the rich,loving respect for me and connect with me and the world within me, then I will create the wealth, health, relationships and career I desire in the external/outer world.

It made me re-remember each day, that I had to go within to get what I wanted in the ‘real’ world.

If you focus on just your external experience you will go without.

Self Hypnosis allowed me to get that connection, to connect with my unconscious mind and that’s when I would get results.

95% of your processes and behaviour is an unconscious process. 5% is you, the conscious mind.

Let me say it again, 95% of what you do, the beliefs you hold, the behaviours you run, the feelings you feel are run at an unconscious level, not conscious level.

What does that mean?

Well if you neglect the inner world of you, do not connect with the unconscious mind you will lose out on achieve your goals and dreams.

Hypnosis allows you to connect with your unconscious mind. So that 100% of you begins to focus and attract and achieve your goals and dreams.

You are the Goal Setter; your Unconscious Mind is the Goal Getter!

Why not use Hypnosis today and feel good, act and react the way you wish and live the life you want.

Remember, those beliefs, resources, and behaviours to achieve you everything you wish is achieved my going on the inside, when you change the inner, you will always change the outer!

Hypnosis

As a hypnotist, it’s important to tell you why and how it can help you.

Hypnosis has transformed millions of live’s, I can tell you hundreds and hundreds of my client cases of how people have let go of fears, depression, medical issues, anxiety, OCD, panic attacks, the list is endless, like all good hypnotists.

But I won’t tell you those studies in today’s Hypnosis Blog.

I want to tell you about a specific person who used Hypnosis to transform his life.

Let’s call him Seth, now Seth was always thought of himself as different, in a way as child he felt isolated, cut off from other people. There was nothing wrong with Seth; he had great friends as a child since he could remember. He never felt like a loner, but he did feel something most people can feel in life. Seth had the dreaded thoughts of ‘not being good enough’, fear of what people thought, suffered with anxiety and felt generally inferior to not only people, but most situations, especially new ones.

He had trouble speaking to his Grandparents due to his extreme shyness. School was a hard time for him as he struggled to learn at school, in fact his school wanted him to have one to one tuition, fortunately his insistant, supportive mother refused, knowing it would add to the low self esteem and shyness.

With a few hiccups along the way Seth got a little better, but he still lacked that strength, confidence and worthiness he knew he wanted and should have.

He got to the point that he did a Job he disliked and he lived for the weekend. He had a relationship going nowhere masking he’s feelings of being lost with security.

Something had to change; no-one else could do it. He had to do it he just didn’t know how.

When the student is ready the teacher will come.

Seth’s father, had an idea that would 100% change his son’s life.

He suggested to his son, to go on a week’s Hypnosis courses to get reflection and time out.

Little did his father know, but it caused an accumulation of events, synchronicities and connection he never thought was possible.

The wizard of the Hypnosis course was just that. He was an elderly chap with more kindness and wisdom than most, a wizard, has skills but also has a way of speaking to different parts of you said Seth. He knew something was happening deep within his inner mind.

Seth decided that it was time to be him and nothing less than him, the haze of being lost disappeared and as days weeks and months went by he looked back at himself and realised how Hypnosis changed his life and how he was using it to change others too.

Hypnosis was a key that unlocked the potential of the sleeping giant within. He since achieved more successes, more changes and feats that were beyond what was imaginable. All because of the ingredients that came together.

Ingredients and instructions for Seth were:

1. Feeling of lost and lack of self worth
2. Add to that with a decision of ‘I have to change’
3. Take one father to spurn the idea of a life time of change
4. When idea comes, the idea is seized and taken on board
5. One wizard with an abundance of passion
6. Allow the unconscious to rise and find the solution
7. Act out the wonderful fruits of results and continue to take action and live a life of helping others.
8. Finally tell everyone who reads this, if they had not realised Seth was in fact me - Joseph Clough. I was the young child who had the issues, but thanks to help, support, teachers, Hypnosis and my decisions to be me, I became the me I am today.

Young me

To me today

Hypnosis changed my life; it has given me more than I thought, from struggling at school subjects, I now read in-depth books on everything about life. I teach in front of big crowds and was on ITV without hesitation. I can tell you now, I feel worthy, I am good enough and I want to tell you, you too can have that. Hypnosis/hypnotherapy is a key, which once turned can allow you to be you, the real you.

Happy Friday!

Last night I was dog sitting my brother’s young pup called Gus,

Stay with me as there is a reason behind the story.

Now Gus, like all young pups has boundless energy and a habit of wanting to do anything he can. He has this curiosity to find and do anything. Unfortunately for me last night, that meant running, hiding, biting, chewing, bumping into things and taking advantage of me.

Now we all have been like that once right? Now, I don’t mean the latter, but the curiosity of wanting to do anything he can.

When we were young ourselves, we asked so many questions, in fact there’s the ancient most wonderful question anyone has ever asked. So what is it?

Its simple….

Why?

When we were young we were so curious to know about everything. Why this? Why that? Why does this do that? Why does that do this? why does why mean why? Why? Why? Why? Why?

When did we lose the ability to consistently to ask the why questions?

But first it’s vital and important to realize the difference between the whys firsts

I am NOT on about the silly whys of ‘Why am I so poor?’ ‘Why does the world hate me?’ etc . They just give us reasons to why we are like we are and that gets us now where.

I mean the ‘whys’ for knowledge. To have the curiosity of a child in wanting to know why something works.

I am a big why person. I want to know everything I can. I want to know why a techniques works in NLP, Hypnosis, Hypnotherapy or Coaching. Then I can really be it, and even add to it. I want to know how entrepreneurs think, why they get their success when others do not. I want to know about science, quantum physics, spirituality, esoteric knowledge. I want to know everything I can about anything. I can be very obsessive about it in a healthy way.

Ever heard the quote:

“If you are not growing, you are dying”

Everyone on my Seminars such as my Reclaim Your Destiny NLP taster weekend or my NLP Practitioner Training Courses people are there to learn. They are curious. They hear about NLP or Hypnotherapy and want to know more and how they can apply it in their life, to help other people.

Anyone who’s achieved anything was curious, wanting to know why or how they could achieve something. Albert Einstein wanted to know why and how the universe is.

So, remember, to ask the whys, the hows, the everythings to get a deeper understanding of you, your world, the universe. Grow beyond your boundries.

Jealousy…..

As you know I write about my experiences in my day to day life.

I can see how we people get Jealous. I’ve had recent experiences of this businesswise, where people have not liked my success. I choose to not respond to it. It’s a human experience we’ve all experienced at times, but I want you to know how to let go of jealousy if you suffer with it in your life.

Jealousy is simply an emotion triggered by negative thoughts and feelings.

Those feelings can lead to:

Insecurity
Fear
Anxiety

These are usually over an anticipated loss of something that the person values, such as a relationship, friendship, career, health or love.

Also Jealousy is a combination of emotions such as anger, sadness, and fear

So how can we release Jealousy from our lives?

Time…. what is time, what does it do and does it exist?

On my run this morning with my dog Howard along some wonderful fields I was thinking all about time…..

Although time is a man made construct and ultimately does not exist in my mind, ultimately it does exist in our perception.

Why am I on about time?

Well time changes everything, if you know you have 1 day to finish a project you knuckle down and finish it by the day’s end – right? However if you are given a month to do the project more often than not you would pace yourself (or some leave it to the last day like the first example – you know who you are!)

If you have more time it’s less important, if you have less time it’s more important.

I have a question for you though.

Is your life important?

Easy answer – right? You know it is, but because we feel our life is for a long period of time the less we do the things we want, should or have to do. So we inevitably put our dreams on hold, ‘I’ll do it next week, next month, and next year’

It’s a common trap, and this blog is about me too, like most blogs, if I think it, a part of it is about me, as I begin about thinking about it…….

If you had one year to live, what would you do?

If you had six months to live, what would you do?

If you had a week to live, what would you do?

Can you notice the less time we have the more urgent and important our time is?

By no means would I want you to have that mindset of ‘if only I had ‘x’ amount of time left’, but let’s think:

‘How can I do all the things I want today?’

‘What 3 things will I do today to actualise my dreams?’

‘Am i doing what is important? Am i being my passion? Am I living life?’

Do it today.

Another thing, I was re-watching the film ‘Peaceful Warrior’ by Dan Millman and a quote popped out at me.

“A Warrior meditates in every moment”

What does that mean guys?

To me, it’s being fully present in every moment, living in the now and taking on everything in your experience and having absolute gratitude for now.

Well that’s what I was thinking on my run, running by the fields, being aware of me, being aware of the crops moving in the breeze, feeling the early morning rays of the sun, feeling my heart beat, seeing the wonderful shades of yellows, greens and browns, and even watching Howard pant as he runs along the field with each stride, being aware of life.

It’s amazing what you are aware of when you focus on your awareness, isn’t it?

Below are some picutures of the fields

and finally………………………………

Howard after his run!
