Auto suggestion, by definition, is Self Hypnosis, although many also include Affirmations under the Auto Suggestion catagory as well. In that case, self hypnosis is much more "powerful" and typically much faster than affirmations.

You are quite right when you say you just "know".  You cannot explain it, and only others that have had the feeling can truly understand. It is very odd but somehow comforting to have the feeling.

We all have "abilities" but we are not all receptive to exploring them.

Hypnosis cannot exist without suggestion. The suggestion, made during hypnosis, bypasses the conscious and is retained in the subconscious where it is acted on later by the conscious (if successful) Also, Freud did use hypnosis, claiming at the time it was the best means of accessing the subconsciou...

Just curious. How many here have either had a past life regression conducted, or would like to have a past life regression done ?

And if you had or have "feelings" of your past life experiences ?

When calcuating a birth name with a suffix (Jr, II, etc) how do you calcuate for that or do you just ignore it?

It can be a very useful self improvment tool. Several good schools are available and several good books outline the basics. It is fairly easy to use, but does require commitment on the part of the user.

Another interesting article.  Interesting studies are currently being conducted at MIT with the IMDHA that may alter some of the conclusions made in this article. It is such a wonderful time with regard to research in all areas of "the mind".

Keep up the good posts.
