Therapeutic Relaxation Music Helps Addicts Recover
Therapeutic Relaxation Music Helps Addicts Recover
Miami, FL (PRWEB) February 20, 2008
Relapse is a constant problem for individuals suffering from alcohol and drug dependency. The majority of addicts, approximately 70 to 90%, who go into treatment will relapse within the first year after they complete a traditional recovery oriented program. The relapse rate of those going through a detox program alone is even higher. While treatment programming is definitely necessary, additional resources are needed to continue to support a person in their recovery, especially with respect to stress reduction.
G & G Holistic has recently implemented a new and innovative approach to reducing the relapse rates of addicts. In addition to combining holistic and traditional treatment techniques, G & G Holistic is now utilizing the power of therapeutic relaxation music to improve recovery efforts of those suffering from dependency issues. This new component of Holistic’s program assists clients in learning how to reduce stress by listening to the therapeutic relaxation music provided to them while in the addiction treatment program. As a result of effectively utilizing the therapeutic relaxation music clients also create the possibility of learning and retaining more of the recovery process that they are being taught while in treatment. According to Dr. Henshaw we learn more effectively if we are relaxed and attentive.
The development of the therapeutic relaxation project at G & G Holistic was created by Dr. Harry Henshaw, a licensed psychotherapist. In addition to being one of the senior psychotherapists at the treatment center, Dr. Henshaw is also a musician. Originally created for his practice of hypnosis, Dr. Henshaw has developed a variety of therapeutic relaxation musical compositions uniquely designed for reducing stress, improving sleep and enhancing a person’s self esteem. According to Dr. Henshaw, therapeutic relaxation music can definitely assist a person in recovery.
According to Dr. Henshaw, music can be a very powerful and effective way of helping a person to learn how to relax and as a result reduce and better manage stress. The music that Dr. Henshaw has created utilizes specially designed musical compositions combined with theta and delta binaural audio tones to produce a very deep state of relaxation. Through consistent use of the therapeutic music a person can learn how to reduce stress on command. As mentioned above, if a client is relaxed, he will better able to learn about the addiction recovery process that is being taught at the treatment center.
Dr. Henshaw’s music is also used at G & G Holistic to assist clients in the program to sleep more effectively. Some of the musical compositions that Dr. Henshaw created were developed to help clients relax in the evening hours and as a result experience a more peaceful sleep. The therapeutic relaxation music created by Dr Henshaw is also played at the residential treatment center in the evening hours before bedtime.
Dr Henshaw has also utilized his therapeutic relaxation music to enhance a client’s self esteem. The self esteem CDs that clients have access to while at the program, combine the therapeutic relaxation music and binaural audio tones with positive affirmations. With repeated use the positive affirmation process improves self esteem and as a result produces better motivation for a person’s recovery process and program.

Engineer Proofs and Presents Better Content, Using TextAloud
Engineer Proofs and Presents Better Content, Using TextAloud
Clemmons, NC (PRWEB) March 22, 2011
Project engineer Paul Blanzy divides his time between civilian and military work, a major part of which involves the management and presentation of huge amounts of text content. To help Paul absorb, proof, and even present that content, he turns to TextAloud, the popular Text to Speech program from NextUp.com. TextAloud helps users like Paul export almost any electronic text into spoken audio that can be listened to on a PC, or output to popular MP3 or other audio file formats for listening on iPhones (R) iPods (R), laptops, MP3 players, PDAs and more.
“I like TextAloud because it helps me understand how my writing comes across to people,” comments Paul, who listens to his important e-mails, letters and speeches using the Text to Speech software in order to objectively hear inflection, tone of voice, and pacing that differs from his own. “This gives me insight into how my written words may come across to the recipient, and not just how I meant them to be read.”
Paul, a resident of St. Charles, Missouri, first discovered the software after searching for a Text to Speech reader for self-study materials that might enable him to share spiritual references, Bible readings or personalized sermons. “I was looking for a way to hear specific content that was not available through ‘books on tape,’ and which would allow me to choose specific sections I wanted to hear without having to wade through too much that I didn’t,” he adds.
Paul soon found a multitude of additional uses for TextAloud, using the software for everything from listening to his e-mails and other content while driving, to testing out the text for speeches and presentations using voices such as ‘Lauren,’ an optional Premium Voice from AT&T Natural Voices (TM), as well as other pleasant and realistic AT&T Natural Voices (TM) like ‘Ray’ and ‘Julia.’ “This approach helped me to make sure I was able to be light-hearted, but sincere, without sounding corny or mushy,” he adds. He soon discovered other uses for the software, turning to TextAloud to assist him with a customer presentation during a transitional period at work, and using it during his commute. “That was a big help,” he adds.”I was on ‘active duty’ and drove to my office for an hour each way every day. I tried podcasts for a while, but it was too hit-and-miss on good ones, and there was little control over the content.” Instead, Paul began to make his own Text to Speech collections, putting the MP3 files onto CD for listening in the car.
TextAloud also proved helpful on an aspect of life almost every computer user has experienced — that of maintaining objectivity while reading or responding to e-mails, even on emotional or stressful issues. By using Text to Speech to listen to those e-mails, Paul was able to listen objectively while removing the emotion too easily read into a discussion or topic. “Letting ‘Lauren’ read e-mails to me in her more dispassionate voice helps me to pause and see things from the sender’s perspective,” he comments. “Doing this can really save a lot of grief on both sides of the screen.” Paul not only used the approach for listening to his inbox, but for evaluating his own e-mails before sendout, as well.
For others embarking on using Text to Speech, Paul advises that they listen to samples of several choices to really find the voices they’ll respond to best. “I have trouble hearing higher frequencies, for instance,” he comments, “so a lower voice works best for me on some stuff.” He also utilizes different voices for different tasks, listening to female voices for some documents, and male voices on presentations or technical items. Paul’s use of Text to Speech now ranges through most of his computing tasks, from e-mails, presentations and documents, to his latest endeavors of blogging and podcasting. He’s even using his text to speech files to help him with self-affirmation and self-hypnosis!
“Ultimately, TextAloud gives me great insight into how others will read or hear my words,” Paul comments. “I’ve also achieved deeper understanding overall when listening to content read aloud to me, and I’ll even read along sometimes on items for study, for a double-whammy of learning. TextAloud is easy to use, and it really makes my written and spoken words that much more effective.”

It’s College Finals Time at 5-Hour Energy
It’s College Finals Time at 5-Hour Energy
Farmington Hills, MI (PRWEB) December 10, 2009
5-Hour Energy is inviting MAXIM readers, college students and energy drink fans to take the Energy Drinks 401 – Advanced Studies Final Exam and test their knowledge of energy drinks while trying to win a one-year supply of 5-Hour Energy shots and possibly a spot on an upcoming 5-Hour Energy TV commercial.
The 5-Hour Energy Exam is reminiscent of those dreaded college finals but with more fun and no college tuition at stake. As for any exam, test takers will need to prepare ahead of time using the Energy Drinks 401 Syllabus and class notes. After sufficient cramming, they’ll have the same strenuous tasks of sitting in front of a hypnotizing scantron sheet to scribble in multiple-choice answers while trying to avoid distractions like text messages from friends, broken pencils and classmates passing notes.
Once they have completed that portion of exam, the MAXIM professor will review their answers and will give them a grade. If they ace the exam, they’ll be instantly entered to win a one-year supply of 5-Hour Energy shots. If not, they’ll have study harder and try again. Next for those who pass comes the opportunity for extra credit. Filling out the extra credit essay portion of the Energy Drinks 401 Final Exam will automatically enter you into the latest Featured Fan Contest.
The exam closes on January 29, 2010, and winners will be announced by the 5-Hour Energy team shortly after.
About 5-Hour Energy:
5-Hour Energy is a two-ounce energy shot that provides hours of energy and alertness with no crash* (we must include our usual crash disclaimers at the bottom of all press releases.) and no jitters. It contains a blend of B-vitamins and amino acids, zero sugar, and only four calories. It is available at retail outlets throughout the United States and Canada.

Are People in Britain Too Fat to Wear Summer Clothes?
Are People in Britain Too Fat to Wear Summer Clothes?
London, UK (PRWEB UK) 27 March 2011
Thousands of people dread the prospect of the clocks going back this weekend. It means summer’s on its way. And for many people this means only one thing, their ongoing battle with weight will highlight to them that they really are too fat to wear the latest trends of fewer, thinner and flimsier clothes. A new course, “Discover the Secrets of Thin People – Losing Weight Without Dieting or Trying” is being run in central London starting on Saturday 7th May – specifically in time for people to still get thin for summer. It’s designed especially for those people who are sick and tired of struggling with diets and yet still really want to lose weight – with a full money back guarantee if you don’t.
The event is being run by registered hypnotherapist, Elizabeth Mansfield and uses techniques of hypnosis as well as neurolinguistic programming (NLP). During the two part course, run four weeks apart, attendees are encouraged to explore – and then explode – their negative relationship with food. Topics covered include thorny issues such as emotional eating, beating food cravings and how to think like a thin person.
The result is, without fail, a completely new understanding and different attitude to eating. The course material and hypnotherapy CDs that the participants take home and listen to in the privacy of their own home on a regular basis enable these changes to be incorporated easily and effectively into the subconscious mind for long lasting results.
The course came about when Elizabeth put on about two stone following the birth of her two children. For several years afterwards she became another ‘failed dieter’ and envied people who could seemingly eat whatever, and whenever they wanted.
As Elizabeth explains, “Over time I realised it was not about changing what I did or didn’t eat, it was more about changing my thinking. I already knew about the enormous power of the mind so just by understanding how ‘thin’ people thought and then changing my perception in the same direction the weight began to come off easily. It felt too easy but it worked!”
Elizabeth continues, “With so many friends and colleagues wanting to know the secrets of my weight loss I developed a course that shared my tips and techniques in a cost effective, fun and rewarding way. I’ve been running these across the country for more than a year and I love doing them because they have such a profound impact on people, and the results are consistently speaking for themselves!”
To give people a taste of Elizabeth’s unique approach to weight loss a free 25 minute hypnosis mp3, ‘Super Slim Me’ and free report, entitled ‘The Seven Deadly Dieting Sins’ is available from http://www.help-me-lose-weight-now.com.
The “Discover the Secrets of Thin People – Losing Weight without Dieting or Trying” course runs from 9.30am to 5.00pm with part 1 on Saturday 7th May and part 2 on Saturday 11th June. The location is still to be confirmed, although will be in central London and for a maximum of 12 people. Attendance on the course is £347.00 per person, which includes 7 hypnotherapy recordings on CD and a hard copy of ‘The Ideal –Weight Loss with No Dieting and No Trying’ folder and workbook. Other dates are available through the summer.
To book visit the website, http://www.help-me-lose-weight-now.com
Notes to editors:
Hypnosis is a heightened sense of relaxation where you are still in complete control what you see, hear and do. A hypnotherapist will guide a client into this state in order to help them access deeper levels of consciousness. This in turn allows them to accept positive suggestions about how they can modify their feelings, thoughts and actions to achieve the results they are seeking.
NLP (neuro linguistic programming) is a method of understanding and harnessing the natural abilities we all have. By acknowledging that behaviour is learnt NLP techniques provide the basis from which we can re-learn better actions and outcomes in a very focussed and productive way.

Four Sports Psychology Programs Help Baseball Players End Hitting Slumps During Spring Training
Four Sports Psychology Programs Help Baseball Players End Hitting Slumps During Spring Training
River Edge, NJ (PRWEB) March 6, 2008
Hitting a baseball is one of the most difficult tasks in all of sports and getting into hitting slump can be quite frustrating for players, parents and coaches.
If you can equip hitters with good mental and physical skills during Spring training, you can help them to prevent themselves from getting stuck in a slump that lasts a long time and can ruin a season and a chance at a pro career or a scholarship.
Jay P. Granat, Ph.D., Psychotherapist and Founder of http://www.StayInTheZone.com gets calls every week from players, parents and coaches who are concerned about a hitting slump.
“My kid is a great hitter, but he has lost his confidence at the plate.”
“He was hitting the cover off the ball, but he got nervous when the scouts were watching him.”
“The coaches have a ‘if you don’t hit, you sit’ policy. This seems to unsettle my kid.”
“Ever since I was hit by a pitch, I can’t get comfortable in the batter box.”
A great hitter needs to be relaxed, focused, confident and optimistic when he steps up to the plate. In addition, he needs to know how to think smart when he steps into the batter’s box.
Dr. Granat, who has been featured in The New York Times, Good Morning America, The British Broadcasting Company, The Canadian Broadcasting Company, The International Tribune, The Associated Press, Tennis Magazine and Executive Golfer Magazine was named one of the country’s Top Ten Mental Gurus by Golf Digest. He is featured in a documentary film about long distance running.
Granat helps hitters in one of four ways. First, he is available for phone counseling sessions. Players, parents and coaches can call him at 888 580-ZONE.
Second, for hard core baseball players, who eat, drink, think and breathe baseball he recommends his 101 Ways To Break Out Of A Hitting Slump CD Program. http://www.stayinthezone.com/baseball.htm
Third, for players, parents and coaches who want an introduction to sports psychology, self-hypnosis and mastering the mental toughness aspects of sports he recommends his Stay In The Zone program. Thousands of athletes from around the world from virtually every sport have used this program. http://www.stayinthezone.com/get_stay.htm
Fourth, Dr. Granat’s book Get Into The Zone In Just One Minute: 21 Ways To Improve Your Performance is about to be released by http://www.worldaudience.org . Here is a link about the book http://worldaudience.powweb.com/pubs_bks/DrGranat.html , which will be sold at http://www.amazon.com and at Barnes and Noble shortly.

Hypnotist Offers $15,000 Stimulus Package to Atlanta’s Middle Class to Kick Off 2010
Hypnotist Offers $ 15,000 Stimulus Package to Atlanta’s Middle Class to Kick Off 2010
Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) December 18, 2009
Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist Sean Wheeler is giving away health and happiness – free of charge – to 100 lucky residents of Metro Atlanta in celebration of the 6th Annual World Hypnotism Day. The climax of this free event is a group hypnosis exercise during which Wheeler will hypnotize those people to stop smoking, lose weight, stick to their resolutions and accomplish their goals.
“2009 was an extremely stressful year for many middle-class people in Atlanta,” said Wheeler, a certified member of the National Guild of Hypnotists. “I’m offering my own stimulus package to give them a boost – and an opportunity to make 2010 much, much better.”
January 4th is the day when hypnosis professionals in more than 20 countries promote the benefits of hypnotism. This event will take place on Sunday, Jan. 3rd to give working people a chance to attend.
“One great thing about this stimulus package is that it’s not going to the wealthy – it’s going to the people who really need it,” said Wheeler, “and the best part is that they’ll never have to pay it back.”
Hypnosis has a strange reputation, mostly due to movies and comedy shows that promote the myth of the all-powerful hypnotist, and that reputation causes some people to hesitate.
“Many thousands of people have used hypnosis to stop smoking, lose weight and eliminate stress,” Wheeler explained, “The science and the studies back it up, and public perception is slowly changing.”
Wheeler is also an accomplished Stage Hypnotist, offering shows as fundraisers for schools and charities, but don’t expect anyone to start clucking like a chicken at this event.
“A hypnotist can’t make people do anything against their will, whether it’s on a stage or in therapy. Otherwise, I’d take the first plane to D.C. and hypnotize Congress,” Wheeler laughed.
The free event will take place at the Hyatt Regency on Windy Hill Rd in Marietta from 2:00pm to 4:00pm on Sunday, January 3rd, 2010. Registration is required, and RSVP information is available at http://www.purehypnosis.com and http://www.pure-hypnosis.blogspot.com.

Wheeler has appeared on Q100′s “The Bert Show” on 99.7 FM and “Change Your Mind, Change Your Life” on B98.5 FM, and he will soon be featured in Fitness Magazine.

Deep Sleep is a Lifesaving Answer, and the Way to Get it May Surprise You
Deep Sleep is a Lifesaving Answer, and the Way to Get it May Surprise You
Woburn, MA (PRWEB) March 25, 2008
Board certified hypnotist, Tom Nicoli just made it easier for you to get the Deep Sleep your body craves. When the CBS news show, 60 Minutes, (airdate: March 16, 2008) revealed that getting deep sleep is more important to your health than even the critical number of hours you sleep, reporter Lesley Stahl, was clearly shocked, as were many viewers. But the body’s vital need for deep sleep is a message Tom Nicoli has been advocating, teaching, and helping solve for years with his Deep Sleep audio CD.
“Deep sleep is essential for physical and mental health, yet a staggering 70 million Americans suffer from insomnia or other types of sleep problems,” says Tom Nicoli, citing research from the US National Sleep Foundation.
Tom Nicoli is probably best known for his successful weight loss program, which has been the subject of NBC’s Dateline and received a 5 of 5 star rating by Shape Magazine. His life changing, lifesaving, self-help CDs target many subconscious challenges. People worldwide who sought to achieve weight loss, gain public speaking confidence, build a commitment to exercise more, or who were seeking sustainable, deep sleep or insomnia relief have used Nicoli’s CDs with proven success.
“Lack of sleep disrupts every physiologic function in the body,” says Eve Van Cauter, an endocrinologist at the University of Chicago School of Medicine. As Dr. Van Cauter explained to Stahl during the 60 Minutes interview, in one study of healthy young people, when sleep was restricted for just six nights, the body went into a pre-diabetic state. Other health conditions linked to lack of sleep were heart disease, high blood pressure and obesity. Significantly, the studies clearly showed that getting 8 hours of sleep at night were not enough, unless that time included sustained periods of delta wave sleep, known as deep sleep.
To help people gain control of their sleep disorders, Tom Nicoli currently offers his Deep Sleep CD at a special price when purchased as part of the Emotional Freedom Series. The Deep Sleep audio CD targets the internal stresses and illogical thought responses that prevent natural sleep. When paired with Pillowsonic (TM) Pillow Speakers, it offers a way for individuals, in the privacy of their homes, to achieve natural, peaceful relaxation, relief from insomnia and ultimately deep sleep.
Tom Nicoli is available for media interviews at 617-605-0443.
About Tom Nicoli, BCH, CI
Tom Nicoli is a Board Certified Hypnotist with the National Guild of Hypnotists, founder of: A Better You Hypnosis, Inc.; the New England Institute of Hypnosis; and World Hypnotism Day. Additionally, Tom Nicoli is a published author, public speaker, and member of the National Guild of Hypnotists Advisory Board.

Dark Harvest (See video): Don’t believe what you’re mama told you: Veggies aren’t good, they’re EVIL.For centuries, a battle has raged between good and evil. Today, that struggle unfolds…in your garden. Your job: grow a vegetable ARMY of DOOM.
In this hypnotic, physics-based, match-3 game, you launch chemical orbs into a cloud overhead. Make matches to fill your chemical tank with noxious gases. Grow a new evil vegetable with each level you clear – from Anna the Banana to Lascivious Letty the Lettuce.
Little Runner/Doodle Jump (See video) Little Runner is cute and determined alien. All he wants to do is run – and nothing is going to stop him. Little Runner is a little spacey, too. Blasting music in his oversized headphones, he’s not paying the closest attention to all of the obstacles on the road ahead.
Help lead him on by adjusting the platforms ahead of him using your fingertips to clear the path of any pitfalls or stonewalls. Blow out fires with the swipe of a finger. Crush boulders with a simple tap. Slash bamboo poles in half. Nail wooden posts into the ground. Otherwise, let Little Runner take care of the rest.
Mr. Hand (See video)
The original quirky retro-arcade 8-bit secret-agent flying-hand with a turbo-booster Rock Paper Scissors game. You play the irresistible Mr. Hand – Spy Extraordinaire – and Champion Gamer as he plays the ultimate game of chance: ROCK – PAPER – SCISSORS
Use the acceleromater to feed Mr. Hand’s gambling spirit by guiding him toward hand combinations that he can beat or tie and by avoiding those that he’ll lose. Each winning hand accelerates the pace at which he jumps into the next match.
Mevo & the Grooveriders ( See video)
Get your GROOVE ON with MEVO & The Grooveriders! MEVO lives in a world that has been conquered by silence. Your job is to help MEVO bring back the music. MEVO is a super-addictive rhythm game that plays like a Mario-style platformer. As Mevo grooves through 5 different worlds, you help him keep his beat by tapping along to the music. Win Silver, Gold and Diamond Gruv awards for successfully completing each level.
