Not too long ago a neighbor invited me to his 40th birthday party. I asked if, as my gift to him, I could become his party’s entertainment.
I would analyze handwriting for anyone interested.
If some persons wanted to experience hypnotism, I would not make them cluck like chickens. (Not that I could. It is important to realize no one would do anything under hypnosis he would not do in a fully awake state.)
The host, a controlled individual, had concerns regarding hypnotism, which he did not fully understand.
Erroneously, he thought when someone was hypnotized, a hypnotist had control over his mind.
I explained that although the hypnotized subject appears to be asleep, he is not, even though his eyes are closed. Completely relaxed, he is alert to everything around him.
While experiencing hypnosis, he still hears, smells and can touch anything around him. In fact his senses are more alert than when in a fully awake state.
Hypnosis is not taking control of a person’s mind. It is energizing, relaxing and helpful in assisting anyone to create any changes a person may be seeking.
Hypnosis simply enables a person to see, feel, touch and most importantly experience how one’s life would be if he were where he wanted to be. The imagery created in hypnosis is clear, and powerful. Commonly, it triggers the imagination, which, in turn, when channeled in the direction the subject is requesting, brings about significant change effortlessly.
Once I had explained the benefits of hypnosis to my birthday friend, he and his wife became excited.
Eager to Start
I arrived at the party, with a clipboard, paper and pens in hand, some of the 150 guests already were waiting. They soon formed a line to have their writing analyzed.
Some 197 different character traits are revealed in one person’s handwriting. We consciously write what we want to write, but the writing style itself comes from our subconscious.
Handwriting analysis is a useful tool in self-improvement. When you understand what part of your writing refers to which character trait, you can affect a change by consciously changing how you write.
Individuals use handwriting analysis in the interest of self-improvement, to gain a better understanding of themselves. Employers use personality testing to find qualified personnel. Psychologists use handwriting analysis for personality evaluation and therapy.
Handwriting analysis identifies, evaluates and understands a person's personality through the patterns.
The way you dot an “i” or cross a “t” can say a lot about how you think and behave. The scientific validity behind it is debatable.
Handwriting analysis often has been used to determine a person’s nature and personality traits.
And Then There Are the Skeptics
Returning to the party, I set about analyzing many people’s handwriting samples. The analysis was a great success.
All enjoyed finding out about themselves. They were amazed when I was able to pinpoint the kinds of partners they had and the behaviors of their partners.
Skeptics said I could tell about a person because he or she was standing before me.
They changed their minds after I asked them for the handwriting of someone they knew well and whom I did not know.
Such skepticism reminded me of one of my oldest friends, who made the same claim. To prove my case, I asked one man to bring me the writing of someone I did not know. When I looked at the sample the next day, I was immediately concerned for the person. Clearly, the writer was depressed, reclusive and in bad health. He needed some hypnosis or medical intervention to overcome these issues.
My friend looked at me, his mouth agape.
“Now you have convinced me that handwriting analysis is amazing and that it works,” he said. “My friend committed suicide two days ago. He had been suffering from major depression and a congenital heart condition. He had been lonely and isolated since his wife and two kids had left him.”
Thankfully, I did not encounter anything so devastating at the party. All the analysis was in good humor and well received. were so impressed they actually booked hypnotherapy sessions to work on issues shown in their handwriting. If anyone is looking for entertainment at your next party, or for individual hypnotherapy sessions, don’t hesitate to contact me.
