Get “Back on Track” Using Hypnosis

Posted on March 12, 2015 by Dr. Errol Gluck

Life coaches are always talking about getting people on the “right track.” I’m not fond of the term because, first of all, there isn’t one track that suits a person but all kinds. How does one choose? What should one choose? A single life bends in so many different directions that the right/wrong track becomes irrelevant.

The main step is knowing about the track you’re on already. “Nowhere” is not a valid place to be or go. Then again, It isn’t easy to know what you’re doing as you’re doing it; just because you’re doing it doesn’t mean that you know what’s going on. And that’s all right. Why? Because the less we analyze and expect from the track we’re on, the easily it is to profit from the experience. Anxiety melts away whether or not there truly is anything to be anxious about.

Of course, I’m not diminishing the wisdom of personal assessment and goal setting. I am encouraging you to not get hard on yourself when the path you take doesn’t go your way; look at the other ones before you, or maybe behind you, and don’t fret about the time it takes to give them a shot. The time you took for the wrong shot was not time wasted. You can’t blame yourself.

Remember that I can’t know what the right track truly is for you. You do. I can help you identify that direction on on ou can no more expect a life coach to swoop down and determine the right track than you can expect a man to propose to a woman after only three minutes of knowing her. Life coaches don’t have magic wands—they harness the “magic” power we all have to make our own decisions, which lead to a better life.

I would avoid a life coach who, on the first session, is telling you what you need to do to become the person you want. In other words, any life coach who tells you what the right track is probably isn’t going to get you to where you want to be.

How Does Hypnosis Happen?

Posted on February 9, 2015 by Dr. Errol Gluck

A popular question people have when inquiring about hypnosis is, “What’s the process like? What’s going to happen to me?”

Remember, nothing is going to happen to you. You are in charge, conscious, and your own person the whole time. As for the process:..

Hypnosis is not a one-size-fits-all type of treatment. I cannot emphasize this enough. I tailor the treatment based on what you and I discuss about your life. The first session is mainly devoted to laying the background so that, on the second session, I can employ the most client-specific induction as possible.

During hypnosis, you recline on a couch in my darkly-lit office so as to maximize your physical comfort. Your eyes will be closed and you will have taken any sips of water necessary. You are at your peak comfort level and one hundred percent relaxed. Great thing is, you’re not asleep! I walk you through a guided meditation. In a calm voice, I suggest you imagine certain things (exercising your mind to make new associations between experiences and emotions). It lasts about half an hour, and when it’s over, you will definitely be drowsy. However, you will still be alert – maybe more so – and self-possessed, with a subconscious that has been tweaked for the better. The changes are cumulative and permanent.

Interested in Hypnosis in NYC? You must be! There’s tons more to learn that can’t be put in writing alone. Give me a call at (212) 599-3195.

Cure Depression Through Clinical Hypnosis

Posted on February 6, 2015 by Dr. Errol Gluck

Hypnosis and curing depression A combination of Clinical Hypnosis and Life Coaching not only cures depression, but tackles the anxieties and phobias arising from the disorder. Could you possibly be in a darkness so deep that you no longer have the desire to resurface? That you’re afraid of connecting with anyone on any level, afraid that the first step could be the beginning of doom? Tragically, yes.

I suggest that you use your heightened sensitivity to your advantage! The slightest push into recovery is not nothing. If you feel it, let it happen. Take that nudge all the way.

Depression is most acute when it has no obvious cause; treatment may take longer in that case. However, depression can also be a direct if extreme response to some recent devastation. Compared to other forms of treatment, hypnosis works on rewiring your brain to create a completely different – but not unrealistic – way of responding to your experience. Rather than living a prolonged reaction to the pain, you will be able to process your grief maturely and progress.

Depression is a tricky thing, all around. When dealing with tragedy such as a loved one’s death, mourning is necessary. But there is an end to the mourning which sometimes you will have to impose yourself. Give me a call if you think you’ll need help. (212) 599-3195.

Hypnosis for Self-Hypnosis

Posted on January 30, 2015 by Dr. Errol Gluck

Hypnotizing Watch Many people are curious about whether I could teach them self-hypnosis and if the skill is as effective as seeing me for treatment.

The answer is yes, it is possible to perform hypnosis on yourself. However, I don’t recommend that you teach yourself how, particularly if your problems — outside of your interest in learning self-hypnosis — need to be solved first.

The eagerness to take care of your needs independently is a great sign – receptiveness to hypnosis is essential to a successful treatment. I want you to keep in mind that the procedure is absolutely safe. You are fully relaxed, but never unconscious or unaware. For fifty minutes nothing else matters but the goal at hand. In high stress, such restorative periods don’t happen out of the blue for you. And when they do, you usually won’t get the outside guidance to use the time productively.

Are you considering a hypnosis session in my NYC office for your problems, and to potentially learn how to perform hypnosis yourself on yourself? Let me know. There’s plenty to learn on this website, too, if you’re interested: www.glucksolutions.org

Giving up on Finding Romance in NYC? Let Hypnosis Help

Posted on January 23, 2015 by Dr. Errol Gluck

The NYC dating pool hasn’t changed. It remains as difficult and merciless as ever. Everyone’s ambitious, sophisticated, and interestingly complex. Yet why are so many choice single men and women perplexed over how to begin a romantic relationship, let alone sustain one? What’s the hold up? Why does it appear impossible for desirable men and women to attain romantic fulfillment?

You’d think with the advent of social media and dating websites, we’d all be happily hunting or finding the people we can mesh with. This isn’t the case. Apparently, regardless of how immaculate our images are online or in-person, we still have to deal with the most critical element of successful dating: Confidence.

Let me reiterate that self-perception is a subjective frame of mind, not necessarily based on or reflective of objective reality. If you want to jumpstart your dating life, I suggest shedding all preconceived notions of selfhood that are keeping you back — drop them immediately — and get fixed on your goals. Sounds easy, but it’s hard to practice. That’s when I come in. Think about this: When you go out on a date, what are you looking to get out of it once it’s over? Another date? A one-, two-, or possibly three-night stand? A potential long-term relationship that might lead to marriage? You have to be clear, if only to yourself, about what you want. If what you want is a combination of different things, that’s a valid goal in itself.

To clarify, a social phobia is not equivalent to a ‘fear of rejection.’ Everyone has a ‘fear of rejection.’ Social phobias go a little further. They are manifest in the mental and physical withdrawal from groups of people, an inability to function or communicate with them; a kind of human interaction impeding emotional well-being, career development and self-actualization.

Clinical Hypnosis works for highly specific, relentless social phobias. Life Coaching involves dialogues between you and me that trains you how to engage in social interaction that gets you where you need to be. If anxiety, social phobia, depression or any other mental ailment is bringing you down in your love life, give me a call. You only live once — why do it alone? Start sharing your life with people who are right for you.
