Moving Forward, Life Changing Short Stories and Metaphors for Hypnosis, Hypnotherapy & NLP
by John Smale
The most perfect thing about humans is our lack of perfection. Moving Forward is the positive outcome of that. We can realise that there is something better in the future. When we berate ourselves for not being perfect we wallow in failure. But, when we see that the future can be better we thrive in the optimistic feeling that no matter what has befallen us there is always the opportunity for betterment rather than assuming that we have reached an end point.
As you read this book either to yourself, to other people or to your clients you will find insight into problems. This allows movement away from difficulties towards finding solutions and implementing them. The decision to look at life from new perspectives gives the chance to earn your true value in the world and to profit from constructive change. Rather than being held back by old beliefs and attitudes the reader moves into a new way of thinking, a new way of acting and a new way of life. Taking and acting on decisions is paramount to success.
By moving forward now, you are investing in a brighter future.

Mind Changing Short Stories and Metaphors
by John Smale
When used in NLP and hypnotherapy, metaphors have long given insights into the difficulties of people and have shown the ways in which we can escape or improve. If the stories strike a chord with you, then they also show a way out. These short stories, metaphors and interactive scripts will help you to eliminate negative thoughts and achieve your dreams by allowing you to relax while reading stories that can bring about positive change. Some of the stories will relax you, others will make you think. Some allow you to enter a light feeling of hypnosis.Hypnotherapy and hypnosis have been major users of metaphors to show different approaches to problems and their resolution. Milton Erickson, the grandfather of modern hypnotherapy used metaphors to great effect in resolving problems with his patients. Self hypnosis allows you to enter the areas of your mind where you can become imaginative and optimistic. You can create your dreams and the ways in which you will achieve them. Based on a huge amount of therapeutic work, these short stories, metaphors and interactive scripts can help you to bring about positive changes, eliminate negative thoughts and achieve your dreams.

Short Stories and Metaphors
by John Smale
When we look in a mirror we can see a reflection of how we are and how we want to be. We live in a stressful world. Very often we live at a distance from the people who we could ask for help or advice. Regrettably, it is often easier to recognise the causes and effects of problems after the event, with the benefit of hindsight. Therefore, these short stories and metaphors, based on real-life experiences, have been written in order to offer help to people who are suffering, or who might suffer, from negative influences in their lives. The stories are based on the adverse effects that behaviours, attitudes and actions have had on the lives of others. Therefore, if the readers can benefit from recognising symptoms of their own issues that have caused problems, then there is the possibility that they can take corrective action before suffering strikes them. They stem from the therapeutic experiences of a hypnotherapist and how people have exchanged their problems for happiness using short stories and metaphors and NLP.

Self-Applied Hypnotherapy and NLP Solutions for Weight Control
by John Smale
We need to address the issues of weight and shape from a different perspective to that of counting calories and fad diets. We need to use the natural resources that we have. We are able to control our body shapes rather than provoking the responses that work against them. By working with our inherent systems, we can encourage weight loss in the medium to longer term. This book shows you how to lose weight and keep it off by changing the unconscious processes that control our body-shape blueprint. The body-shape blueprint is exactly what it sounds like. Throughout human history our bodies and minds have worked together to establish and maintain the body shapes that optimise our chances of survival. The most variable factor in this body-shaping is the amount of fat that is stored. In addition to helping you to change your shape the book also explains many myths and fallacies about weight control: Why calorie counting does not help. Why dieting can be counter-productive. Why mothers put on weight. Why mothers finish food left on their children�s' plates. Why men and women store fat in different bodily locations. Why grandparents put on weight. Why we comfort eat. Why overweight people are often fast eaters

Hypnotherapy and NLP Solutions for Stopping Smoking
by John Smale.
There is a sense of satisfaction in being a non-smoker. After all, you will look better because smoking takes blood from the skin, leaving it less well nourished than it should be. It is easy to spot an older smoker by the state of their skin. You will also feel better. There are 4200 different chemicals in cigarette smoke, over 2000 of which are toxic, including cyanide, arsenic, acetone, formaldehyde and carbon monoxide to name just five out of more than 2000! You are going to smell better. As a smoker you may fail to notice how bad the smell of smoke on clothes, your hair and breath is. You will after you stop. And if you are male, as mentioned above, smoking is a major cause of impotence. In short, you will feel the benefits of stopping, a great sense of satisfaction in having beaten that habit that holds so many in its grip. There is one more thing that you will substitute, and that is learning to breathe in a way that will help to eliminate the feelings of withdrawal to a great extent.
