The power of thoughts, more so when they are voiced. Considering words are created from thought which comes from a belief, or what is being read, recited or impersonating.

It is possible to change a belief by hearing or running the same program often enough. 'Normality' is created when we hear, see or do things often enough and creating an ingrained neural path. This is great, and just what we want when we choose to create healthy thought patterns, but the same happens with the negative.

This is how complacency can occur because we become conditioned or neutral to the situation. Not always healthy, and the body feels it by out of balance or out of sync or the latest buzz word - our of alignment with our true selves. Mis-alignment triggers body stress, turning to symptoms and if ignored long enough disease.

Fortunately, we can disrupt the process and come back into alignment with conscious effort, or faster using energetic circuit changes such as Kinesiology, Rieki, Bars, EFT, NLP and of course, Hypnotherapy.

Affirmations is a support process which helps to reinforce the changes created during the energy changes. They are constant reminders. Affirmations can be used alone, but change is created faster when combined with Belief change, Anchors and Visualisation.

In a nutshell, more we say something, the sooner the sub-conscious brain will internalise it, say it with passion, and images it is faster still. Adding affirmations to a clean slate after the belief and memory has been transformed, faster again. Convinced yet that a combined, thorough approach is powerful?

The Queen of Affirmations would have to be Louise Hay, who created a comprehensive list of affirmations for almost all aliments, and guided further research into the associations between our self perception, self beliefs and conditions.  Her book You Can Heal your Life was written more than several decades ago and is still used as a primary text for health change.

Trauma, by definition is a "deeply distressing or disturbing experience" or "physical injury".  Tell me how many people haven't experienced traumatic experiences of different severity?   The next question to ask, who gets to define if your interpretation of a situation makes it traumatic, or not?  The only person qualified is yourself as you are the one that lived it, and you are the one that gave the situation weight.   

Think about this.....  two children (from the same parents) are playing in the yard, one tends to have the dare-devil streak and the other seemed to be born more reserved and cautious.  Are either children wrong or inferior because of their make up?  NO!  Lets take it another step. 

At one time a playful dog came into the yard and approached from behind the reserved child and started barking with excitement.  Now, this is where it gets interesting.  The dare devil child was more than happy to play with the dog and tumble with it.   This little was was more adventurous to begin with and also saw the dog coming.   The reserved child however received a shock when the dog barked and bounced on him, because he didn't see or hear it coming.   Two different interpretations from seemingly similar situations.  Yes, one child saw the dog coming, and the other didn't. Consider though what the children FELT and interpreted from the experience.  The more reserved child from that time was always on edge and anxious around dogs, more so when they barked, and other child just loved dogs all the more and couldn't see the problem of his friend.   Though he wanted to encourage his friend to be ok  with dogs, he would also tease his friend when he pulled away from dogs. 

So, what has happened?
There are two parts playing out.  First is the person's nature  they are born with, the second is the meaning the children associated with the situation.  The reserved child was shocked and with the release of adrenaline flooding his body the cells were primed for the fear, flight and fight response.
