'We do not see things as they are. We see them as we are'

The following article was published in the Winter 2013 issue of Canadian Health Magazine - A magazine that is published by The Canadian Medical Association.

Hypnosis revisited

Picture
Forget the stage Svengali mesmerizing hapless people from the audience into quacking like ducks. For many, hypnotherapy is a useful medical tool.
                                                                                                                                        Joe McAllister

A few years ago, Julie McCabe (not her real name) found herself suffering recurrent bouts of anxiety. Having grown up in a disjointed family, the 40-year-old Ottawa businesswoman was concerned about the uncharacteristically emotional reaction she had experienced as a result of a minor incident between her two young children. Despite several attempts at therapy, Julie continued to be haunted by memories of her own troubled family past.

"I decided to try hypnosis to help me overcome these feelings," she says. And for her, hypnotherapy worked. "It is so effective; it is incredible. It has helped me respond to my children more calmly."

Hypnotherapy has helped Julie to think before she reacts and to recognize when she's responding inappropriately. "It's a way of calming my brain at a point in time and getting deeper into the actual issues." Furthermore, hypnotherapy is solution-oriented. "It's not about being in therapy for the next 10 years," says Julie, who after about four hypnotherapy sessions, started to notice the positive effects.

Popular misconception

Another thing hypnotherapy is not about: the mesmerizing hypnotist of popular stereotype who swings a gold watch in front of a credulous volunteer and says, "Look into my eyes. You are getting sleepy."

According to Dr. Judy Coldoff, president of the Canadian Federation of Clinical Hypnosis, "Those of us who practise hypnosis as a strongly empowering healing technique really decry its use by stage hypnotists who use the technique for trivial entertainment purposes such as making someone quack like a duck."

In her Toronto clinic, the registered psychologist uses hypnotherapy to treat about half of her patients. Hypnosis can be a useful tool in the management of a wide range of conditions, including smoking, obesity, anorexia, anxiety, depression and chronic pain. It is helpful for psychosomatic disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome, which often don't respond to conventional treatment.

Coldoff stresses that the therapist does not control the hypnotic session. "Our training teaches us that all hypnosis is actually self-hypnosis," she says. "But the client needs to be comfortable enough with the practitioner to allow the hypnosis to happen."

The first step is relaxation. Different health-care practitioners use various techniques to induce a state of relaxation in patients, including breathing and calming exercises and mentally imagining a safe or happy situation. The patient may be lying down in a quiet office.

Once clients have practiced the exercises, they are better able to enter the hypnotic state — which is akin to that of mindful relaxation, meditation and yoga. Reputable practitioners do not use hypnosis to make people do things they don't want to do.

When clients come to Coldoff expecting hypnosis, she ensures that they understand and accept hypnotherapy for what it can and cannot do. "And I never do anything that I haven't agreed on with the client," she says.

For a client with anxiety, like Julie for example, Coldoff's first session involves a full patient history and assessment. That encompasses physical health, psychological state, family struggles and relationship traumas, and also the person's therapy goals. Then Coldoff might offer to teach a technique "that will help the client feel better."

Practice makes perfect

One effective technique might involve a short breathing and calming exercise (about 20 seconds) to be practised 200 times before the next session — or about 30 to 40 times a day.

"In subsequent sessions, I teach clients to visualize a safe, comfortable and peaceful activity or place," Coldoff says. "This image is important because, once it is well-established, it can then be used as a tool by clients to reduce anxiety in situations that they identified as problematic." The hypnotherapist may also assist the client by making a post-hypnotic suggestion that will help the client return to the safe place whenever anxiety strikes during everyday life.

Response varies

Statistics show that about 15% of people are highly hypnotizable and 15% are minimally hypnotizable. The rest can usually benefit from hypnotic methods because most conditions treated require only mild-to-moderate levels of hypnotizability, Coldoff says.

An alternative to drugs

Dr. Doug Saunders, a registered psychologist and an associate professor in the University of Toronto's medical school, uses hypnotherapy in his Clear Path Solutions clinic in downtown Toronto. He believes the technique is an underutilized tool to treat problems such as depression and anxiety and may be a good alternative for patients leery of pharmaceuticals. "Some 60% of the effectiveness of medication comes from the placebo effect," says Saunders, referring to the documented phenomenon in which a patient's positive expectation of a treatment enhances a drug's effect or produces a beneficial effect even with an inactive drug. "You can use hypnosis to increase or activate or augment that placebo event."

And, Saunders adds, when treating conditions such as eating disorders, all hypnotherapists should involve other health-care professionals such as dietitians and physicians.

Be selective

It's easy to find someone who offers hypnosis — just take a look at the advertisements on your local telephone poles. But, Coldoff says, there is no easy way to check the qualifications of hypnotherapists. There are neither national nor provincial regulators for hypnosis, no college or university diploma programs and no rules or regulations establishing qualifications for hypnosis practitioners.

One group trying to bring some consistency to hypnotherapy is the B.C.-based Association of Registered Clinical Hypnotherapists (ARCH). "ARCH came into existence because we didn't think hypnotherapy in Canada was good enough," says Brick Saunderson, a Vancouver-based therapist and the group's clinical supervisor. ARCH's purpose is to increase the standards of education and qualifications and provide a cross-Canada professional registry for hypnotherapists.

Before you call the number on that ad on the telephone pole, Coldoff has the following advice. Choose only health professionals registered with their provincial licensing bodies — medical doctors, psychologists, nurses, social workers and other health professionals, who are accountable to their respective colleges. These regulators can pull the licences of members who don't meet set standards of practice.

"Doing otherwise may be a waste of money, or worse, could be harmful to the client's well-being," says Coldoff. Shannon Pryce, 60, a retired Toronto retail worker, went the telephone pole route and found a convenient but uncredentialed hypnotist to help her with the double goal of losing weight and kicking a two-pack-a-day smoking habit. "It was a joke," she says. "I only went to one session."

Trust is key

While it's difficult to gauge or quantify the effects of hypnotherapy outside of the laboratory, ultimately, it's the patient's trust in the process and the professional that controls the outcome. "What matters most is that you believe the therapist is working with you, understands what you're dealing with and is helping you figure out ways to approach your problems," says Saunders.

Amen to that, says Julie, whose therapist continues to combine hypnosis with well-administered standard therapy.

Regaining its reputation

In the past couple of decades, hypnotherapy came under suspicion, thanks in part to its perceived role in eliciting false memories in cases of alleged childhood abuse. But today, this technique is gaining acceptance among medical and psychological professionals. And scientists are documenting real physiological changes that support its benefits. For example, they have found that people under hypnosis have lower levels of norepinephrine (adrenaline) – a stress-related fight-or-flight hormone – and higher levels of serotonin, the feel-good brain chemical.

And the effects might go beyond mood-related hormones and neurotransmitters. A growing body of research suggests hypnosis can be helpful and cost-effective in a wide range of medical areas: to lower blood pressure and cholesterol, prepare patients for surgery and reduce the frequency and severity of migraines and other sources of pain — including surgery, cancer treatment and childbirth. Hypnotic treatment has also been shown to reduce the length of hospital stays and the amount of medication required and speed recovery after anesthesia.

A Scientist Proves DNA Can Be Reprogrammed by Words and Frequencies

Picture
A wonderful article showing the true nature of our reality and how science is changing every day, opening up to the possibilities of this reality.
                                                                                                                                                                         By Grazyna Fosar and Franz Bludorf

THE HUMAN DNA IS A BIOLOGICAL INTERNET and superior in many aspects to the artificial one. Russian scientific research directly or indirectly explains phenomena such as clairvoyance, intuition, spontaneous and remote acts of healing, self healing, affirmation techniques, unusual light/auras around people (namely spiritual masters), mind's influence on weather patterns and much more. In addition, there is evidence for a whole new type of medicine in which DNA can be influenced and reprogrammed by words and frequencies WITHOUT cutting out and replacing single genes.

Only 10% of our DNA is being used for building proteins. It is this subset of DNA that is of interest to western researchers and is being examined and categorized. The other 90% are considered "junk DNA." The Russian researchers, however, convinced that nature was not dumb, joined linguists and geneticists in a venture to explore those 90% of "junk DNA." Their results, findings and conclusions are simply revolutionary! According to them, our DNA is not only responsible for the construction of our body but also serves as data storage and in communication. The Russian linguists found that the genetic code, especially in the apparently useless 90%, follows the same rules as all our human languages. To this end they compared the rules of syntax (the way in which words are put together to form phrases and sentences), semantics (the study of meaning in language forms) and the basic rules of grammar. They found that the alkalines of our DNA follow a regular grammar and do have set rules just like our languages. So human languages did not appear coincidentally but are a reflection of our inherent DNA.

The Russian biophysicist and molecular biologist Pjotr Garjajev and his colleagues also explored the vibrational behavior of the DNA. [For the sake of brevity I will give only a summary here. For further exploration please refer to the appendix at the end of this article]. The bottom line was: "Living chromosomes function just like solitonic/holographic computers using the endogenous DNA laser radiation." This means that they managed for example to modulate certain frequency patterns onto a laser ray and with it influenced the DNA frequency and thus the genetic information itself. Since the basic structure of DNA-alkaline pairs and of language (as explained earlier) are of the same structure, no DNA decoding is necessary.

One can simply use words and sentences of the human language! This, too, was experimentally proven! Living DNA substance (in living tissue, not in vitro) will always react to language-modulated laser rays and even to radio waves, if the proper frequencies are being used.

This finally and scientifically explains why affirmations, autogenous training, hypnosis and the like can have such strong effects on humans and their bodies. It is entirely normal and natural for our DNA to react to language. While western researchers cut single genes from the DNA strands and insert them elsewhere, the Russians enthusiastically worked on devices that can influence the cellular metabolism through suitable modulated radio and light frequencies and thus repair genetic defects.

Garjajev’s research group succeeded in proving that with this method chromosomes damaged by x-rays for example can be repaired. They even captured information patterns of a particular DNA and transmitted it onto another, thus reprogramming cells to another genome? So they successfully transformed, for example, frog embryos to salamander embryos simply by transmitting the DNA information patterns! This way the entire information was transmitted without any of the side effects or disharmonies encountered when cutting out and re-introducing single genes from the DNA. This represents an unbelievable, world-transforming revolution and sensation! All this by simply applying vibration and language instead of the archaic cutting-out procedure! This experiment points to the immense power of wave genetics, which obviously has a greater influence on the formation of organisms than the biochemical processes of alkaline sequences.

Esoteric and spiritual teachers have known for ages that our body is programmable by language, words and thought. This has now been scientifically proven and explained. Of course the frequency has to be correct. And this is why not everybody is equally successful or can do it with always the same strength. The individual person must work on the inner processes and maturity in order to establish a conscious communication with the DNA. The Russian researchers work on a method that is not dependent on these factors but will ALWAYS work, provided one uses the correct frequency.

But the higher developed an individual’s consciousness is, the less need is there for any type of device! One can achieve these results by oneself, and science will finally stop to laugh at such ideas and will confirm and explain the results. And it doesn’t end there.?The Russian scientists also found out that our DNA can cause disturbing patterns in the vacuum, thus producing magnetized wormholes! Wormholes are the microscopic equivalents of the so-called Einstein-Rosen bridges in the vicinity of black holes (left by burned-out stars).? These are tunnel connections between entirely different areas in the universe through which information can be transmitted outside of space and time. The DNA attracts these bits of information and passes them on to our consciousness. This process of hyper communication is most effective in a state of relaxation. Stress, worries or a hyperactive intellect prevent successful hyper communication or the information will be totally distorted and useless.

In nature, hyper communication has been successfully applied for millions of years. The organized flow of life in insect states proves this dramatically. Modern man knows it only on a much more subtle level as "intuition." But we, too, can regain full use of it. An example from Nature: When a queen ant is spatially separated from her colony, building still continues fervently and according to plan. If the queen is killed, however, all work in the colony stops. No ant knows what to do. Apparently the queen sends the "building plans" also from far away via the group consciousness of her subjects. She can be as far away as she wants, as long as she is alive. In man hyper communication is most often encountered when one suddenly gains access to information that is outside one's knowledge base. Such hyper communication is then experienced as inspiration or intuition. The Italian composer Giuseppe Tartini for instance dreamt one night that a devil sat at his bedside playing the violin. The next morning Tartini was able to note down the piece exactly from memory, he called it the Devil's Trill Sonata.

For years, a 42-year old male nurse dreamt of a situation in which he was hooked up to a kind of knowledge CD-ROM. Verifiable knowledge from all imaginable fields was then transmitted to him that he was able to recall in the morning. There was such a flood of information that it seemed a whole encyclopedia was transmitted at night. The majority of facts were outside his personal knowledge base and reached technical details about which he knew absolutely nothing.

When hyper communication occurs, one can observe in the DNA as well as in the human being special phenomena. The Russian scientists irradiated DNA samples with laser light. On screen a typical wave pattern was formed. When they removed the DNA sample, the wave pattern did not disappear, it remained. Many control experiments showed that the pattern still came from the removed sample, whose energy field apparently remained by itself. This effect is now called phantom DNA effect. It is surmised that energy from outside of space and time still flows through the activated wormholes after the DNA was removed. The side effect encountered most often in hyper communication also in human beings are inexplicable electromagnetic fields in the vicinity of the persons concerned. Electronic devices like CD players and the like can be irritated and cease to function for hours. When the electromagnetic field slowly dissipates, the devices function normally again. Many healers and psychics know this effect from their work. The better the atmosphere and the energy, the more frustrating it is that the recording device stops functioning and recording exactly at that moment. And repeated switching on and off after the session does not restore function yet, but next morning all is back to normal. Perhaps this is reassuring to read for many, as it has nothing to do with them being technically inept, it means they are good at hyper communication.

In their book "Vernetzte Intelligenz" (Networked Intelligence), Grazyna Gosar and Franz Bludorf explain these connections precisely and clearly. The authors also quote sources presuming that in earlier times humanity had been, just like the animals, very strongly connected to the group consciousness and acted as a group. To develop and experience individuality we humans however had to forget hyper communication almost completely. Now that we are fairly stable in our individual consciousness, we can create a new form of group consciousness, namely one, in which we attain access to all information via our DNA without being forced or remotely controlled about what to do with that information. We now know that just as on the internet our DNA can feed its proper data into the network, can call up data from the network and can establish contact with other participants in the network. Remote healing, telepathy or "remote sensing" about the state of relatives etc.. can thus be explained. Some animals know also from afar when their owners plan to return home. That can be freshly interpreted and explained via the concepts of group consciousness and hyper communication. Any collective consciousness cannot be sensibly used over any period of time without a distinctive individuality. Otherwise we would revert to a primitive herd instinct that is easily manipulated.

Hyper communication in the new millennium means something quite different: Researchers think that if humans with full individuality would regain group consciousness, they would have a god-like power to create, alter and shape things on Earth! AND humanity is collectively moving toward such a group consciousness of the new kind. Fifty percent of today's children will be problem children as soon as the go to school. The system lumps everyone together and demands adjustment. But the individuality of today's children is so strong that that they refuse this adjustment and giving up their idiosyncrasies in the most diverse ways.

At the same time more and more clairvoyant children are born [see the book "China’s Indigo Children" by Paul Dong or the chapter about Indigos in my book "Nutze die taeglichen Wunder" (Make Use of the Daily Wonders)]. Something in those children is striving more and more towards the group consciousness of the new kind, and it will no longer be suppressed. As a rule, weather for example is rather difficult to influence by a single individual. But it may be influenced by a group consciousness (nothing new to some tribes doing it in their rain dances). Weather is strongly influenced by Earth resonance frequencies, the so-called Schumann frequencies. But those same frequencies are also produced in our brains, and when many people synchronize their thinking or individuals (spiritual masters, for instance) focus their thoughts in a laser-like fashion, then it is scientifically speaking not at all surprising if they can thus influence weather.

Researchers in group consciousness have formulated the theory of Type I civilizations. A humanity that developed a group consciousness of the new kind would have neither environmental problems nor scarcity of energy. For if it were to use its mental power as a unified civilization, it would have control of the energies of its home planet as a natural consequence. And that includes all natural catastrophes!!! A theoretical Type II civilization would even be able to control all energies of their home galaxy. In my book "Nutze die taeglichen Wunder," I have described an example of this: Whenever a great many people focus their attention or consciousness on something similar like Christmas time, football world championship or the funeral of Lady Diana in England then certain random number generators in computers start to deliver ordered numbers instead of the random ones. An ordered group consciousness creates order in its whole surroundings!

When a great number of people get together very closely, potentials of violence also dissolve. It looks as if here, too, a kind of humanitarian consciousness of all humanity is created.(The Global Consciousness Project)

To come back to the DNA: It apparently is also an organic superconductor that can work at normal body temperature. Artificial superconductors require extremely low temperatures of between 200 and 140°C to function. As one recently learned, all superconductors are able to store light and thus information. This is a further explanation of how the DNA can store information. There is another phenomenon linked to DNA and wormholes. Normally, these supersmall wormholes are highly unstable and are maintained only for the tiniest fractions of a second. Under certain conditions stable wormholes can organize themselves which then form distinctive vacuum domains in which for example gravity can transform into electricity.

Vacuum domains are self-radiant balls of ionized gas that contain considerable amounts of energy. There are regions in Russia where such radiant balls appear very often. Following the ensuing confusion the Russians started massive research programs leading finally to some of the discoveries mentions above. Many people know vacuum domains as shiny balls in the sky. The attentive look at them in wonder and ask themselves, what they could be. I thought once: "Hello up there. If you happen to be a UFO, fly in a triangle." And suddenly, the light balls moved in a triangle. Or they shot across the sky like ice hockey pucks. They accelerated from zero to crazy speeds while sliding gently across the sky. One is left gawking and I have, as many others, too, thought them to be UFOs. Friendly ones, apparently, as they flew in triangles just to please me. Now the Russians found in the regions, where vacuum domains appear often that sometimes fly as balls of light from the ground upwards into the sky, that these balls can be guided by thought. One has found out since that vacuum domains emit waves of low frequency as they are also produced in our brains.

And because of this similarity of waves they are able to react to our thoughts. To run excitedly into one that is on ground level might not be such a great idea, because those balls of light can contain immense energies and are able to mutate our genes. They can, they don't necessarily have to, one has to say. For many spiritual teachers also produce such visible balls or columns of light in deep meditation or during energy work which trigger decidedly pleasant feelings and do not cause any harm. Apparently this is also dependent on some inner order and on the quality and provenance of the vacuum domain. There are some spiritual teachers (the young Englishman Ananda, for example) with whom nothing is seen at first, but when one tries to take a photograph while they sit and speak or meditate in hyper communication, one gets only a picture of a white cloud on a chair. In some Earth healing projects such light effects also appear on photographs. Simply put, these phenomena have to do with gravity and anti-gravity forces that are also exactly described in the book and with ever more stable wormholes and hyper communication and thus with energies from outside our time and space structure.

Earlier generations that got in contact with such hyper communication experiences and visible vacuum domains were convinced that an angel had appeared before them. And we cannot be too sure to what forms of consciousness we can get access when using hyper communication. Not having scientific proof for their actual existence (people having had such experiences do NOT all suffer from hallucinations) does not mean that there is no metaphysical background to it. We have simply made another giant step towards understanding our reality.

Official science also knows of gravity anomalies on Earth (that contribute to the formation of vacuum domains), but only of ones of below one percent. But recently gravity anomalies have been found of between three and four percent. One of these places is Rocca di Papa, south of Rome (exact location in the book "Vernetzte Intelligenz" plus several others). Round objects of all kinds, from balls to full buses, roll uphill. But the stretch in Rocca di Papa is rather short, and defying logic sceptics still flee to the theory of optical illusion (which it cannot be due to several features of the location).
