Miracle of Hypnotherapy Surgery is anyway there, yet, who knows one may not need it. Determination and visualization are two strong and effective tools of the mind that if used properly can help an individual attain his goals... Sudhakar (name changed ), a state level swimmer until about 4 years ago had started showing a change in attitude . It began when he had a shoulder dislocation due to which he had to stop swimming . This lead to frustration slowly building up in him which reached its peak when the doctor proclaimed that he can get any relief only by a surgery.

His negative emotions included irritation, anger, blaming others and even hurting himself . The session helped Sudhakar let go of his negative thoughts and emotions and more importantly forgive others and himself ( although it wasn’t easy for him to do so). After a couple of days, his mother con firmed that she could see a visible change in his behavior...his habit of blaming others had considerably reduced and his frustration was
