I recently watched the movie The Darkest Hour, which is a
wonderful character study of British Prime Minister Winston Churchill during
the chaotic days of May 1940. The stress
Churchill experienced was extreme and relenting as he weighed decisions about
how to combat the Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany.
I found myself thinking that Churchill could have been helped from the calm and clarity that can be achieved through the practice
of self-hypnosis. Out of curiosity I typed
“Winston Churchill and hypnosis” into Google and…surprise, surprise…came across
a number of
reports about how we employed hypnosis to remain awake and alert, even
though his sleep was limited.
While not a replacement for a healthy lifestyle of
exercise, appropriate diet and adequate sleep, hypnosis continues to be proven
as a tool to facilitate exceptional living.
