Grant's News
& Comments. Hey it's December already!
That means two things: It's Christmas in 3 weeks - and I'll be 55 even
sooner! How the year and years fly when you're having fun! Seasons greetings
to one and all - and thanks to all those who have already wished me and
my family well for the festive season.
~~~~~~~~~~
The 2010 course dates are all set now,
so please see below for the full schedule of courses from Hypnosis New
Zealand - including the brand new Advanced Diploma Hypnotherapy course,
that will be run at least twice next year.
~~~~~~~~~~
The NZAPH training day held in Christchurch
recently was a great success, with many NZAPH members and many HNZ students
attending the informative day. It was great to re-meet people that
have attended my past courses and finally meet those I've previously only
had contact with by phone or email.
~~~~~~~~~~
Please enjoy the content of this HYPNOTES
- and let me know of any news or events for the next edition - the first
for 2010!
Christmas
has gone to the Dogs! (Sent in by my good friend Will
Smith)
Seasons
Greetings (from Kevin Raines in Christchurch,
NZ) I wish you good health, positive
thoughts, happiness and prosperity throughout the Christmas season and
the New Year. I will look forward to seeing you in 2010. My new clinic
in Wigram opens January 18th, 2010 and I will be offering some new exciting
and unique sessions for losing weight.
Contact me to find out more on 021

Queensland, Australia) To Grant and Family, and all Hypnotes
Readers - Christmas Greetings and Best Wishes for 2010.
The
Time Line of Christmas Past, Present and Future.
We all remember the scenes from the
classic tale of 'A Christmas Carol', where Scrooge is visited by the ghosts
of Christmas Past, Present and Future and we can all remember when our
own Christmas pasts were not so great or we were meaner than we could have
been but now as our Christmas future rapidly becomes our Christmas Present,
I suggest we take the time to ask ourselves what kind of festive period
we want and remember that it doesn't have to be about extravagant gifts
but it could be about extravagant kindness, rich with fun and laughter.
That we take the time to give thanks
for all that we have had in our year, from our health, our friends and
family. That we, whatever our past thoughts and feelings about Christmas
are, that they can be different and that we can see and feel a time of
connection to those closest to us and hope that others are feeling the
same way too. That we can give when we can give and receive easily
and joyfully. It is time to do some time-line therapy and change
our coming future towards where we want it to be rather than where we expect
it be.
All success, happiness, abundance
and health to you for Christmas and New Year.

Seasons Greetings (from Mike Nathan) Hi Grant.
Many thanks for all your emails and information, and Seasons Greetings
to yourself and therapists in New Zealand. If possible could you let me
know of any meetings in Christchurch in Jan 2010, where I will be staying
for 3 weeks.
Seasons Greetings (from Alpha Hypnosis) Alpha Hypnosis
Training wishes you... A Safe & Happy Christmas and New Year!
At this time
of year it’s usual to think of relaxing, and enjoying the company of family
and friends over the holidays. It's a great time of year for that, and
we hope you enjoy the time of sharing and travel safely.
Then along
comes New Year and New Year resolutions! What sort of resolutions
have you set for yourself in the past? Stop Smoking! Get a new job! Clean
out the garage! Some people go about setting resolutions that they
really mean to keep - starting off with good intentions, but more often
than not motivation goes out the window, other things intrude, and the
goal slips out of reach. It gets put in the too hard basket until another
time which somehow never comes. Sound familiar?
Why not let
2010 be the year that you set and achieve your New Year resolution? Setting
a concrete goal for yourself, and a step by step plan to carry it through?
You can help yourself, and ensure you are much more likely to reach your
goal, by learning Self Hypnosis, using it to powerfully to set your goal
in place, and motivate yourself so to ensure you take each of the necessary
steps to reach your goal.
Alpha Hypnosis
Training conducts a self help, one day workshop “Your Master Key to Success”,
and also teaches Self Hypnosis & goal setting to individuals. Best
of all, once you’ve learnt these skills you can use them to set other goals,
and assist yourself in any area of your life.
Get in touch
if you are ready to take the step that will ensure you reach your goals.

Seasons Greetings (from
the New Zealand Hypnotherapy Federation Events Team) The team wish
you all a Wonderful Christmas and New Year. May you enjoy the warm company
of friends and family, and have a well earned break.
