Life Purpose Discovery Through Hypnosis and Scientific Fingerprint & Hand Analysis: Part 2

In this blog post, I want to continue my article on your Life Purpose Discovery and how your fingerprints are key your Life Purpose Discovery.

But first, I would like to answer the question Why do we have Fingerprints?

According to current scientific research:

Unlike most wrinkles on our bodies, which appear due to bending and stretching of the skin, fingerprints aren’t the result of repeated motion. Each of us is born with a unique set of them, although scientists aren’t exactly sure what purpose fingerprints serve.

However, the research doesn’t explain why everyone’s fingerprints are unique, or why our fingerprints are typically arranged in elliptical swirls

The folds of skin on the tips of our fingers are a reflection of our specific genetic code. The reason we have them is to create more surface area for sensory nerves. The reason they are all different is because everyone’s genetic code is different. Even among twins, the “epigenome” is different.

In the system of Fingerprint and Hand Analysis I use, there is evidence that the code to the soul’s purpose is found in the fingerprints. Our fingerprints never change once they form 5 months before we are born.

This is where my personal experience with the process of Past Life Regression connects to the process of rebirth and the formation of fingerprints.

In his book “Journey of Souls”, Dr. Michael Newton, teaches that the soul chooses it’s body, who will be its parents, where it will be living, it’s life situations physical and mental capabilities, and what Karmic lessons the soul is here to learn.

The fingerprints then are coded with the soul’s agenda, only to be revealed when  that person meets or contacts a trained Fingerprint and Hand Analyst to discover your Soul Purpose.

Our Soul Purpose is made up of three parts, Life School, Life Purpose, and Life Lesson.

From an inspection of your fingerprints, a trained analyst can tell you what your soul determined to be the most important thing you came to do this lifetime, or your Life Purpose.

Your Life Lesson can be recognized as your least developed skill or ability. This will be your biggest obstacle or reoccurring problem to living your Life Lesson.

A third factor that is coded into the fingerprints is your School of Life. The School of Life that you choose shapes both your Purpose and your Lesson. Knowing your Life School will help you make progress in your Karmic classroom.

The Four Types of Fingerprints

The Whorl fingerprints are associated with the principle of action. Having multiple Whorl prints is associated with the Life School of Service.

The Loop fingerprints are associated with the principal of Feeling and Emotion. This is the most common fingerprint. Having multiple Loop fingerprints is associated with the Life School of Love.

The Tented Arch fingerprint is associated with the mental principle. Having two or more Tented Arch fingerprints are associated with the Life School of Wisdom.

The Arch fingerprint is associated with the principle of being.  Having two or more Arch fingerprints is associated with the Life School of Peace.

The 4 Life Schools are only one part of the powerful code contained in your fingerprints. There are also 14 possible Life Purposes, 14 possible Life Lessons and 15 possible Business Niches.

Life Purpose Discovery Through Hypnosis and Scientific Fingerprint & Hand Analysis: Part 1

Fingerprint and Hand Analysis Helps Determine Life Purpose

Life Purpose Discovery Through Hypnosis and Scientific Fingerprint & Hand Analysis:  Part 1

I have been a Counselor and Certified Hypnotherapist for many years. During that time I have been searching for better tools to help people discover and live their life purpose.

I have used many different counseling and hypnotherapy techniques especially Regression Therapy and Past Life Regression to aid people to tap into their subconscious and their soul memories to retrieve the experiences from their life lessons.

During the research for a book I have been working on, I have revisited and examined my personal experiences and my clients’ experiences with Reincarnation, Past Life Regressions, Near Death Experiences, Stages of Spiritual Evolution, Soul Development and Life Purpose.

Dr. Moody and Life After Life

During my research,  I had the pleasure to meet and interview Dr. Raymond Moody. Dr. Moody is a psychologist and medical doctor. He is most famous as the author of Life After Life and other books about life after death and near-death experiences, a term that he introduced to the world in 1975.

He introduced me to his new research process to triangulating evidence of Near Death Experiences through his book, A New Way of Thinking.

Through this analysis process, I was looking for aspects of each approach or technique that would corroborate the information discovered from the previous  technique(s).

What I have discovered is that we don’t come into this world a blank slate. We bring with us our soul memories and experiences. New research shows infants aren’t just blobs waiting to speak. They already make judgments about good and bad and what’s right and wrong even as infants.

Here are some news stories on the subject:

http://phys.org/news192693376.html

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/09/magazine/09babies-t.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0

I began looking for other kinds of evidence that we come into the world with. The only thing of permanence that belongs to us is our bodies. So my search for Life Purpose and Life Lessons turned to deciphering evidence on our bodies.

I began studying the only permanent markings we have on bodies, our Fingerprints (Dermatoglyphs). They form 4 months after conception and they don’t change. No two people have the same fingerprints. We have over 100 years of Fingerprint analysis used in Law Enforcement  to prove this.

Answers Within Our Hands

So I began my formal study and certification in Scientific Fingerprint and Hand Analysis with Jena Griffith.

What I want to share with my readers is that we are not talking about  “palm reading”, but a repeatable scientific process with a database of over 150,000 individuals over a period of 35 years, developed by Richard Unger, author of Lifeprints.

Most people go through life completely unaware that their fingerprints are the blueprints to their Life Purpose, Life Lessons and your Life School.

Did you ever wonder why you have fingerprints?

I will leave you with that question and answer it in Part 2 of this article.

Unintended Consequences: A Coach’s Perspective

Coach's perspective of balance

As a life coach, I always want the best for my clients. I take time in the initial interview stage to find out what their present issue is and what their goals are. I won’t be doing the work for them but guiding them to reaching their success.

I’m a partner, cheering from the sidelines, and helping them through the necessary action steps.

My life events have led me to this career.

I’ve always been a curious person, seeking more information and freely sharing my skills and knowledge.

In reviewing some of my clients’ success, I started thinking about my role in other relationships over the years. It reminded me of a situation many years ago with my younger brother. The lesson learned is one I carry to my current career.

The article was published in Fowler Wainwright International’s July newsletter. While it addresses a perspective for life coaches, it’s also good advice for anyone dedicated to helping someone else toward their goals.

What Causes Anxiety?

Help for Anxiety

What Causes Anxiety?

Anxiety may have multiple causes, such as your environmental factors, stress, genetics, or substance abuse.

Fear can be triggered by external objects or situations. Our reaction to fear manifests in anxiety, an internal vague feelings that “something bad is going to happen”. Our internal, negative self-talk supports our feelings that the “worst is going to happen”.

Environmental factors that can cause anxiety include trauma, such as abuse, death of loved ones, money worries, personal relationship issues and stressors from your daily personal and professional life.

Anxiety can occur with people experiencing a medical crisis, such as a chronic or long-term illness. As the person experiences the trauma of the illness, he or she starts imagining the pain or trauma will continue or become worse.

Genetics factors can cause anxiety. Studies show that a family history of anxiety increases the chance that a person will also develop anxiety.

Anxiety can also occur with mental health problems. The problem becomes worse when substances are used to hide the underlying pain of anxiety. Mental health problems affect 14 million Americans each year, and only 19 percent of those people are in treatment. When the pain of anxiety heightens, a person could experience depression or can lead to self-medication with alcohol and drugs.

With some of the awareness about anxiety, you can help prevent your every day anxiety from escalating into anxiety disorder. Remember it’s important to manage your stress, avoid alcohol and drugs, stop self-medication, adopt a regular sleep schedule, and create a healthful lifestyle.

Hypnosis is ideal to reduce your stress and anxiety levels.

Hypnosis can address the underlying issues. It can alleviate the hidden emotional pain and the root cause of the stress. Reducing the underlying pain helps to stop anxiety – both the severity and duration.

If you’re suffering from anxiety, you can find help. It will take an openness to talk to a hypnotherapist and be willing to attend sessions. Hypnosis has been used to treat anxiety for thousands of years.

If you need help, contact me for information on ending anxiety today and living the life you were meant to have.

Phobias Are More Than Simple Fears

Intense fears are phobias

 

If you experience phobias, you’re not alone. Most people experience some kind of fear. It could be the fear of an event (attending a social gathering); fear of an object (bridges) or animal (a snake); or fear of the unknown.

Sometimes, those fears transform into intense feelings. Uncontrollable, extreme fears are called phobias.

Phobias are categorized under the general treatment of anxiety. Causes can vary from genetic factors, learning or life experiences. Like the causes, symptoms can vary from person to person, though there are similar symptoms within each type. Severity can range from mild to extremely severe.

Typical symptoms include rapid heartbeat, shaking, faintness, panic, obsessive thoughts, horror, and an inability to switch focus from the feared situation.

Types of Phobias

The American Psychological Association categorizes phobias into three subcategories:

  • Specific Phobia
  • Social Phobia
  • Agoraphobia

If left untreated, Phobias may lead to more serious psychological problems in future.

Panic and phobic attacks may seem very similar. Often, it’s difficult to distinguish between fear, panic attacks, anxiety and phobias. The main difference between fear and phobia is in the severity of reaction. Having a simple fear is nothing to be too concerned about. However, when fear is experienced over an extended period of time, psychological problems can occur.

Whether it’s a phobia or panic attack, the severity makes one unable to do even small tasks or have the ability to focus and concentrate.

Fight or Flight Response Kicks In

Phobias are not as simple they seem. When a person experiences terror, the body automatically responds by activating the adrenal gland to dump adrenalin into the blood stream. The heart rate increases, and breathing becomes rapid. These are all natural responses of the human body in a state of emergency. It’s called the “Fight or Flight Response” and is one of our most primal instincts for survival in the wild.

Phobias activate this state of emergency immediately when a person is exposed to the source of fear.

It can also be triggered when a person simply thinks of the object or situation. The body’s response is over exaggerated for the true level of threat and immediate danger, but the body automatically reacts as if it is fleeing impending death from a predator.

Some psychological effects of phobias are nervousness, depression, and panic attack, embarrassment, feelings of being out of control, helplessness, and emotional sufferings.

Hypnosis for phobias is very effective in re-educating your subconscious mind to respond in different ways to phobic situations.

The process begins by desensitizing your mind to your phobia trigger, which will provide immediate feelings of relief. The goal of using hypnosis is to reset your fight or flight response to a more appropriate level.

You will be able to reduce or eliminate phobia by retraining your brain to respond correctly. You’ll feel more in control and able to modify your reactions in the future.

Surprise from a Butterfly

Struggles can lead to success

When I was in my early teens, I loved spending my time in nature and observing everything around me. Often I would go into the woods and just sit as still as I could. Gradually, the birds, squirrels, and chipmunks would return busying themselves looking for food and on guard for any danger.

While sitting against a tree, I noticed a black shiny cocoon. I picked it up and studied it’s features and I decided to take it home with me. I placed it in my jacket pocket and when I got home I put it in a small jar. I checked on the cocoon daily.

Emerging from the cacoon

One day, I noticed a small opening in the shell and I could see the insect inside peeking out the opening. Over a several hour period, the insect had struggled but had made little progress making its way through the opening.

I thought I should help the butterfly because it was having such a hard time. So I took out my pen-knife and gently made the opening larger, so the butterfly could easily leave the cacoon.

I felt full of pride having helped the butterfly.

The butterfly emerged unsteady on its legs, with a swollen body and small shriveled wings.

I continued watching the insect, expecting it would transform miraculously into a butterfly. It did not! It crawled unsteadily around on the ground with its distorted body and small shriveled wings.

I couldn’t understand why it didn’t transform into a butterfly.

My grandfather was visiting that day and came out to see what I was doing. He looked and saw the cocoon and saw the insect crawling around on the workbench.

I asked him what he knew about butterflies, and I told him what I had done to help the butterfly. He looked at me and shook his head. He said that insect would never fly. He was destined to only be able to crawl on the ground.

Grandpa told me that in my kindness to help the butterfly, I had actually failed to understand that the cocoon actually transforms the crawling insect into a butterfly.

The small opening and the struggle to leave the cocoon forces fluid from the swollen body and into the wings so it can take flight upon leaving the cocoon.

Grandpa explained my intentions were good, trying to help a struggling creature, but he also explained:

Sometimes in life, struggle is exactly what is needed in our lives for personal growth.

Going through life with out any struggle or obstacles stunts our personal growth. We are not as strong as we could be and we find ourselves never being able to fly.

Lessons for Personal Change From My Kitchen

Addiction struggles

I would like to share with you an eye-opening story I have shared with addictions clients and hypnotherapy clients for  the past 10 years.

I’ve been an avid cook for many years. One day, while I was preparing a seafood meal for a family gathering at my home, I also had been thinking about a client’s situation with his addictions recovery.

The client had entered into addictions treatment and sincerely wanted to make the changes he needed to remain sober and have the life he dreamed of. The client was torn by what he wanted — being drug free and in recovery — and being tempted to continue using drugs from pressure of his friends, family, and associates that he had also “used” with.

 

The client was wrestling with having to change and letting go of people and old destructive behaviors that all contributed to his addiction. I continued contemplating how best to reach this client so he could clearly see his situation.

As family members gathered in our home and came into the kitchen, I heated a pot of water, and while I was talking to my wife and our guests, I dropped one crab into the water, and it tried desperately to escape. The crab even tried climbing my wooden spoon to escape. Then as I added additional crabs to the water, if any one them tried to leave the group, the other crabs would grab hold and pull them back into the group and certain death.

It struck me instantly that it is the same reaction when people try to change! Their friends and family will try with everything they have to hold them in place and to keep them unable to make the changes they desire.

Regardless of your personal development goals, you can find yourself in this kind of situation.

Here are some examples on what can happen when you stretch to reach your goals:

When a person wants to go back to school, you’re told you’re not smart enough and or too old.

When a person wants to start a business, you’re told you can’t afford to start a business and you are not smart enough to run a business.

When a person wants to change careers, you’re told you don’t have the education or experience to change jobs and it’s not the right time because of the economy.

When a person wants to stop drinking, your drinking buddies are always there to offer you another drink to keep the alcoholism going and so they don’t have to drink alone.

When a person wants to stop using drugs, there is always some one there to offer you another “hit” of Oxys , Roxys,  Heroin, Meth, Crack, etc…. and to keep you a good loyal customer for the drug dealer.

When a person wants to change their future, you’re told you are full of crap and that your dream of a brighter future is never going to happen.

When a person wants to lose weight, you’re ridiculed by family and friends for starting another diet that you will fail at again like so many times before.

When a person wants to stop smoking, you’re told by other smokers and tobacco companies that quitting nicotine is going to be so hard, and you will experience awful withdrawl symptoms, so you avoid attempting to quit altogether.

When a person wants to improve themselves, you’re asked why are you lying to yourself and feel the need to change who really are.

When a person just wants a better life, you’re told it’s never going to happen so you should just settle for where you are now and stop thinking you are better than everyone else.

And the list goes on and on …

So, if you use drugs or alcohol, that’s your identity to those you use drugs with. They will always try to pull you back into the  pot!  If you are working a dead-end job, that’s all you will ever be able to do in the eyes of your associates, working dead-end jobs just like them. They will keep you from escaping and pull you back down.  If you aspire to have a different life, they will be there to remind you that you are not going to have more than they have.

You see, when you change your life, and your world, they will have to examine their own lives and will have to face their own shortcomings and realize they may need to change.

My hope with this story is that you are able to escape who or what is holding you back and live the life you aspire to.

Asking the Right Questions

While working towards my BS degree at Purdue University, I attended a Psychology class with Professor , Noam Shpancer , who would start each lecture with “Noam’s Rules”.

One of those rules, that has been of great importance to my private practice, is “The quality of your life is determined by the quality of the questions you ask”.

Noam’s words still ring true, and I have paid this forward to my clients. I often refer clients to read one of my favorite self development books, The Right Questions. It’s an aid to help people begin the process of clarifying what they really want in life is. It will help your journey in self development and personal growth.

The Right Questions
Ten Essential Questions to Guide You to an Extraordinary Life
By Debbie Ford

The Right Questions are simple but powerful in that they have you make new choices, and this leads you to take new actions. These ten questions will clarify your thinking and support you in achieving your higher purpose.

Question 1.  Will this choice propel me toward an inspiring future, or will it keep me stuck in the past?

Question 2. Will this choice bring me long-term fulfillment, or will it bring me short-term gratification?

Question 3. Am I standing in my own power, or am I trying to please another?

Question 4. Am I looking for what’s right, or am I looking for what’s wrong?

Question 5. Will this choice add to my life force, or will it rob me of energy?

Question 6. Will I use this situation as a catalyst to grow and evolve, or will I use it to beat myself up?

Question 7. Does this choice empower me, or does it disempower me?

Question 8.  Is this an act of self love, or is it an act of self-sabotage?

Question 9.  Is this an act of faith, or is it an act of fear?

Question 10.  Am I choosing from my own divinity, or am I choosing from humanity?

When you ask yourself these either-or questions, you raise your level of awareness and are in the moment. In that state of heightened awareness, the answers to these questions become very clear.

The Real “Inception” Explained

“What is the most resilient parasite? An idea”. – Cobb
A quote from the movie Inception

I have received several comments from readers of “The Real Inception” that what I am writing about is fiction or fantasy and trying to capitalize on the movie’s popularity. This post is to clarify what I have been accomplishing as a St. Petersburg Hypnotist.

My last blog post was about the movie, Inception and addressing the idea of implanting an idea. If you haven’t seen the movie, one nugget of the plot is that an idea can be so powerful that it alters your beliefs and behaviors.

I have been in the business of “inception ” (advanced transformational hypnosis) for 10 years, as an addictions counselor and as a practicing Hypnotherapist.

Through interviewing I know what the client tells me they want to achieve or desire.  So they have provided the idea. The role of the Hypnotherapist during the session is as a guide to help clients achieve those goals. It is true that ideas get implanted in the subconscious mind during a hypnotic process for Stopping Smoking, Weight Loss, Addictions Recovery, Anxiety, PTSD, Stress Reduction, etc…

Hypnosis is the art of the practitioner’s skills and techniques, and understanding the science of the mind and human behavior. This is why personal sessions with a certified Hypnotherapist delivers faster results than stand alone Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, and canned recordings of self hypnosis suggestions.

Personal sessions are customized to the best way the client’s subconscious mind receives new information. A skilled hypnotherapist help guide you into deep levels of hypnotic trance (there are six levels of trance), using language patterns (NLP), and visualization that is most suitable to your current accepted beliefs and the ideas suggested are the ideas you wish to be implanted. When the suggestion is presented and adopted by the client as their idea that is when the permanent transformation takes place. The work is completed in 4-6 sessions.

My “Inception” Model for Change

Targeted Idea → Changes your Thoughts → Changes your Beliefs → Changes your Attitude → Changes your Emotions → Changes your Behavior → Changes your Actions

I hope this post clarifies fact from fiction. We are not talking shared dreams or an IMF team to steal someones thoughts or implant an idea for corporate espionage. We are talking the real life work of hypnotists and hypnotherapists around the world.
