So, there he is, the most powerful man in the world, leader of our nation, and the Commander and Chief of the most powerful armed forces in the world, still unable to stop smoking.

He says that he wants to quit, but in his own words, according to USA Today’s website, "I constantly struggle with it" and "there are times when I mess up". Then, he goes on to say, "I don’t do it in front of the kids." I wonder if there is a smoking room in the White House, or does he just step outside?

I’m thinking that a really smart person like Obama, if he really wanted to quit smoking, he could do it. Seriously, lots of people have done it, either by using sheer willpower, a medical intervention such as the patch, or through hypnosis.

I think that President Obama should see a good hypnotist. What do you think?

According to a report published by the UPI, "Hypnosis may help children with asthma and other respiratory disorders." Dr. Ran Anbar published his findings in the journal of Pediatric Asthma, Allergy & Immunology. This research indicates that hypnosis can help children who have such symptoms as difficulty breathing, disruptive cough, hyperventilation as well as other breathing difficulties.

Natural News reports that scientists are using hypnosis to investigate emotions in a short but interesting article posted Oct. 4th.

In this article, they talk about how emotions originate in the subconscious mind. The only problem with the research in my opinion is that they do not talk about the unconscious mind which controls automatic body functions which result in the "feeling" of the emotion. It is the feeling of the emotion that informs the conscious mind about the internal state we call emotions.

Personally, I love it when any respectable research is being done into the use of hypnosis and hypnotherapy. Here is a link to the article, http://bit.ly/4m2Blr.
