Satiated. This is the word that comes to mind this morning. Last night I went to bed in a swirl of chocolate sensations (do not tell me to get a room - I mean literal taste, as in palate). Having no real thoughts of what I could do for my partner for Valentine’s Day, hypnotist and friend Kate Beaven-Marks planted a most wonderful suggestion that pushed the day right over the top. In conversations of congratulations (she is to be a speaker at the NGH conference), she sent me an incredible recipe for chocolate cake. This was no ordinary chocolate cake. It is baked in a cup in the microwave, and the ingredients are things most people have on hand in their kitchens. It was so amazing!!! My partner was astounded. We had come back from spending a night bowling each other over - literally. It was my first experience at a bowling alley. So, as we were getting settled in for the evening, I slipped into the kitchen and made Kate’s chocolate concoction as a surprise. So, many thanks, Kate. The cake, indeed, was all that!
But lets go back to the bowling part of my night. Yes, somehow I have managed to have never trespassed upon a bowling alley before and found myself incredibly challenged. As unbelievable as it sounds, there are still people, middle-aged as they may be, who have never felt the heaviness of an eight pound, Goliath of a ball before, and I would be one of those (people not balls). With thoughts of one, two, three release; step, step, glide; get lower to the lane; aim your thumb with the arrows; do not cross your arm in front of your body; it is like a pendulum - feel the pendulum affect; and gosh knows what-else, I was just happy to have a pin or two collapse based on my effort. But as one of my friend’s put it - I hate not being perfect at everything, that seems to always be the case. LOL. No, I celebrated every downed pin, thank you very much.
Now I would like to improve, should I ever cross the wood floor in clown-shoes again. I know - I ABSOLUTELY KNOW - that hypnosis can help me improve. And whether you have answered my poll about using hypnosis to increase your sporting skills, especially those who answered in the negative, I most certainly will use it. The question is one about what to do. I have no idea where to even begin, being that I am complete novice. I have some ideas, but I am so open to suggestions.
Therefore today’s Sunday Question involves two questions - the first is more philosophical. Would you or would you not use hypnosis to increase your sports potential and why (cause the “no’s” on my poll have me baffled)? The second question is about bowling. Does anyone have any pointers for a newbie?
