I have a consultation call with a Hypnotherapist. Look, I’ve been wanting to do it for years and I thought, it’s time.
I’ve always wanted to wipe certain things from my brain Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind style but I understand that’s not how life works. There are, however, certain events and topics that I seem to subconsciously punish myself with and I’d rather find a way through it than sit with them indefinitely. I think I’ve punished myself enough and it’s time to fully move on and heal from certain events (if possible).
Learning how the brain works, memories, etc. is one of the most fascinating topics to me. I’m interested in intrinsic motivations, human behavior and relationships. I think of these things all the time when talking with my friends about their problems or observing choices made by those close to me or even strangers. I apply this same filter to myself and question my own choices in certain situations. I’ve done some things that I would consider out of character but with time and distance, I understand myself in those moments better.
And so, I don’t know what will come of it but I’m open to the experience. Omie, my grandmother, went through hypnosis at one point in her life. She used it as a tool to quit smoking. She was always open-minded about things and spiritual at her core. I found her spiritual nature and openness comforting. When she was grieving or struggling, she turned to support groups and nature. She used music as therapy and explored alternative methods for healing both physically and mentally.
In any case, I’ll report back.

I hope these letters aren’t sent out on my behalf.. lol
