Most of us know all about daydreaming or zoning out. It is that
unique moment in time when we lose all connection to whatever is
going on around us. We may be present physically but we feel as
though we are millions of miles away. That is an example of
naturally occurring subconscious thought and hypnosis is the
simple process of enabling it to occur.
The subconscious mind is a complex and powerful place. It is
where all of our values, beliefs, habits and patterns reside. It
is also our body's ...

There are many important things that we need to teach children
as they grow'but they have many natural behaviors that we
shouldn't try to change. In fact, we could learn a few things
