Flying is a top 10 fear universally. Especially now we have tighter security, more money and less services from airlines and schedules to meet. Whatever your reason for fear of flying is, it revolves around your mind racing to worst case scenarios that you have most likely never experienced or know anyone who has experiences it. Based on media reports, tv shows or stories, you have created a belief so strongly that you mind believes it is going to happen to you. By the time you get to your destination, and walk out of the airport, you don’t even remember that you were afraid until the next time you are flying again. To relax, focus on the now rather that the what if, will allow you to enjoy the things you are missing from your flying experience that are positive and exciting! You paid the money for the ticket, why make it a bad experience when it could be great! Sanjay Burman is a Master Hypnotherapist.

Everyone wants a better life, more money or freedom. Why is it that only some of us make this happen? No, intelligence, luck and background have very little to do with it. Our brains are so sophisticated that they can work against us to try and protect us! If a car has two wheels going forward and two wheels going backward, you will eventually get frustrated and burn the engine. Your sub-conscious has built certain fears while your conscious has developed this drive for a better life. By creating an idea of what success is in your mind, clearing the resistance, you will see immediate results and ‘luck’ enter your life. Sanjay Burman is a Master Hypnotherapist.

Universally one of the top 5 fears, this traumatic experience of visiting the dentist has haunted us since we were children. Not knowing what is happening, hearing sounds like drills and suctions, puts us in a sensory dis-advantage. When we experience this, our mind races and we prepare for the worst. However, looking back, how many bad experiences did you actually have at the dentist? If you can’t give me a number in a few seconds, it means very few, or maybe none! Did you know that in the medical field, dentists have the highest rate of suicides? The experience of everyone you see being afraid and tense of you would make anyone depressed after a while. So the more relaxed you are, the more relaxed your dentist is, thereby making the experience more comfortable for the both of you. Removing the mind’s ability to race, and just calming it down, will also slow your heart rate, causing less adrenaline and saliva, making it easier for the dentist to do their job and get you out quickly! Focusing on the positive outcome rather than the negative possibility will help you achieve this. Sanjay Burman is a Master Hypnotherapist.

One of the most frustrating things in life has to be staying up all night watching the minutes go by because you can’t sleep. The days become longer and harder to take, and the nights are dreaded. The more we can’t sleep, the more stress we put on ourselves to ‘make’ ourselves sleep which only causes a vicious cycle. Not focusing on sleeping, but rather relaxing and taking the pressure off of our minds enable your body to fall back into it’s normal healthy cycle. This will also work for meditation to just relax and ease the stress of the day, or as a way of deepening your sleep. Do not listen to while driving or operating equipment.

“We all have wondered if we are being told the truth.
Well now you no longer have to wonder. Success requires trust in those who surround us and they are speaking to us
without even talking, if we know how to read the signs.
Three quarters of our communication is non-verbal. Reading Everyday Body Language contains scientifically proven psychological techniques that can be applied to all sorts of everyday situations. Determine if a person is being honest, whether your date likes you or not and how to know if someone lacks confidence.
In this practical guide, author Sanjay Burman teaches us
how to read body language and micro-gestures. He explains the meaning of a scratch of the chin, the wringing of hands, a wrinkle of the nose or a hard swallow. With these techniques the listener will be able to uncover the true meaning behind these and other gestures to confirm what others are saying, and of their truthfulness.
Learn how your body language reading can be used to persuade people to buy your product, vote your way or believe what you want. The benefits to understanding body language and how it can be used to persuade people are limitless, it will increase your commissions, help you communicate more effectively with others, and understand the truth behind people’s words.”

You have an easy way of explaining things.
-Shirley Maclaine
See what is not being shown and hear what is not being said.
Did you know that a micro-gesture occurs 1/8 of a second before a word is spoken? Or how about the person that pats you on the back while hugging you is actually uncomfortable? When you try to impress her and she smiles without showing “crows feet” around her eyes, don’t feel good about yourself.
By looking at a desk, tell how the person reacts to pressure. Find what a person is most insecure about, and what they truly feel towards you.
Reading people takes observing people. Through the exercises in this audio book you will get more comfortable doing so, and the techniques can help you in your personal and professional life.
Don’t guess! Let them tell you everything!

The secret to knowing whether a person is telling the truth or not isn’t from their words, but from their actions! Body language will always tell the truth no matter how much a person may try to hide it. Now you can learn when a celebrity, politician, or even someone around you is being honest! Is that person telling the truth if they look you in the eye? No. That’s a myth. Learn the truth and dispel the myths to get a better read on your boss, friend, family, or even the people you watch on TV!
Examples from: Tiger Woods, Jesse James, Mel Gibson, Bill Clinton, Paris Hilton, and many others.

Stress of now money, time lines, work, everyday life is enough to make you feel sad, alone or even unhealthy. Stress is created by over thinking instead of of being present with the task at hand. This often results in thinking about the worst case and the repercussions, rather than breaking down tasks to one at a time and allowing your brain and body deal with it in smaller bites. To break down and see how dealing with one task at a time will be more effective than over thinking 10 tasks and accomplishing none of them properly, will allow you to relax and function at 100%.
