By evolutionary luck of the draw, we are "of two minds." We have a cognitive mind that thinks about things and a somatic mind that does things. Much of the time, this strange arrangement works pretty well. Sometimes our wires get crossed. Fortunately, we have many ways to help these two minds communicate effectively. Hypnosis is one of these; there are many others.

But every artist, every athlete uses terms like alignment, harmony, balance, and focus. So can you. |
