About this listen

When used in NLP and hypnotherapy, metaphors have long given insights into the difficulties of people and have shown the ways in which we can escape or improve. If the stories strike a chord with you, then they also show a way out. These short stories, metaphors, and interactive scripts will help you to eliminate negative thoughts and achieve your dreams by allowing you to relax while hearing stories that can bring about positive change.

Some of the stories will relax you, others will make you think. Some allow you to enter a light feeling of hypnosis. Hypnotherapy and hypnosis have been major users of metaphors to show different approaches to problems and their resolution. Milton Erickson, the grandfather of modern hypnotherapy used metaphors to great effect in resolving problems with his patients. Self-hypnosis allows you to enter the areas of your mind where you can become imaginative and optimistic. You can create your dreams and the ways in which you will achieve them.

Based on a huge amount of therapeutic work, these short stories, metaphors, and interactive scripts can help you to bring about positive changes, eliminate negative thoughts, and achieve your dreams.

When we dream we transport our minds to places where life is better and where your goals should be placed. Positive thoughts eliminate the nightmares we find in sleep and our waking lives. My dream is to help you to achieve what you want and deserve. Please enjoy this escape to a new reality.

This is a companion volume to: Moving Forward; Life Changing Short Stories and Metaphors for Hypnosis, Hypnotherapy & NLP and Short Stories & Metaphors

Pretty Dark

I appreciate Mr. Smale's efforts and expertise, as well as the care he put into this recording. It's surprising how often you can come across poor narration on Audible but Smale does a good job. However, I found myself skipping track after track due to the dark nature and language of the stories. Even one of the "fantasy" tracks quickly gets gloomy and talks about "negative thoughts weighing you down..." That's not my kind of fantasy.

I totally understand that many of the stories are targeting specific issues and offer solutions embedded within metaphor. But the jarring and, at least for me, disturbing language negates the potential value of these stories. It's worth editing and cutting the negative language out to allow listeners the pleasure of taking everything in and generating helpful imagery along the way. That's the beauty of metaphor: one needn't explain the meaning or the potentially negative issues they resolve.

Thank you.
