Glenn Harrold Interview: Motivation for Hypnotherapy
Hypnotizability and sensorimotor integration: an Italian Space Agency project.
In highly hypnotizable individuals (highs), postural control is more independent of sensory information than in low hypnotizable subjects (lows). The aim of the study was to find out whether locomotion is also less affected in highs than in lows by visual suppression and changes in the neck proprioceptive input. Eighteen highs and 20 lows were asked to walk straight ahead, blindfolded, in basal conditions (face forward), during real and imagined right/left head rotation and mental computation. Highs detected deviations from the straight trajectory better than lows. Their walking direction was more straight during basal conditions and less influenced than the lows' one by mental computation and real/imagined rotation of the head. The results confirm highs' lower dependence on sensory inputs, although this cannot be definitely attributed to a better internal representation of space or to higher behavioral automaticity.

Excessive worry and anxieties are so common in Western society that I sincerely doubt that there are many people who are not adversely affected by them. Do you constantly feel stressed?

Remember that your reactions are most likely part of what psychologists call learned behavior. This means that at some time you reacted – or over-reacted – to a situation. When you perceived it happening again, this recognition...
For each and every one of us there are times when we feel, sad, lonely, and wish that our situation was better. This is a natural, normal feeling that we all go through. In fact, it may be just a matter of our biorhythms fluctuating every 90 minutes or so or just helping us balance our life after a period of exhilaration. On the other hand, if these feelings are persistent and so severe as to prevent you from participating in normal relationships and regular activities, just possibly you may have chronic depression and need assistance.
Here’s what you should be looking for if you think...
Confidence is a person perceived ability to handle any situation that their life may encounter. This means that there's a constant evaluation as to whether a perceived or imagined reality presents a difficulty or threat that is or is not beyond one's assessment of their capabilities. When a challenge is deemed to exceed capability, then negative stress occurs. When the opposite is true, then one could say the confidence exists.
There are two problems that you must be aware of. The first is when the assessment is erroneous. In those cases a person may misjudge their ability to...
