I believe you are an exceptional spiritual being and that the work you are doing is very inspriting and highly needed. Weight loss and health enhancement: Gina, I have fought an addiction to cakes, carbs and caffeine half heartedly for years. With your help I got into closer touch with my whole heart, and under your empathetic counsel I began to care deeply about what I was nourishing my body with. I know it will continue to be a journey but I am moving away from deep cravings to a mild want, a nd you have given me the tools to work around the "wants". Thanks so much for your intent listening, for picking up the cues and clues that move you to reveal and heal! This group has been so helpful to me. While I have only lost about 15 pounds
since we started, I know I have a different attitude and I know I can do
this. It's not about the food. Thanks for taking the risk on both offering this continuation class, and offering up this safe fasting program. We look forward to staying connected to you-your insights, knowledge and your manner of sharing information with us is comfortable and a perfect style for this work we have begun. Gina is a colleague who happens to be as expert counselor in the field of weight loss as one could ever imagine. She's a truly lovely woman, spiritually gifted as well, and highly skilled in all dimensions of weight management and working with resistance. When I first came to Gina Orlando, I had battled my weight for 20 years. I needed a change to spur me on and thought about giving hypnosis a chance, but I was skeptical. Hell, my job requires me to doubt things until I have all the facts. Well here are the facts. a 50 lb. weight loss that has stayed off for years! Case closed! The incorporation of hypnosis in my weight loss program has proven to be highly beneficial and successful. Hypnosis works for me by re-enforcing of my stated goals and helping me to release old patterns that do not serve my needs. It does not eliminate the need for good eating habits or exercise, but it does help you with the entire process. I have lost in excess of 70 lbs. I highly recommend working closely with Gina Orlando to realize your goals. The hypnosis class was a door opening for me to healthier living and real weight loss. There was no "instant miracle" being touted which always makes me skeptical. Understanding the body functions regarding metabolism along with lifetime lifestyle changes made real sense to me. I felt encouraged during class and not pressured to "compete" who lost the most weight. I continue to use the tapes in the evening and quiet times and feel refreshed after them. If I do fall asleep during a tape, I feel very positive the next morning. I have lost 35 pounds so far and I attribute it to using Gina's hypnosis tapes, her great suggestions and the South Beach plan. I cut out soda, drink lots of water, very little sugar and excess carbs, try to exercise regularly and not feel guilty when I indulge in a favorite food on occasion. I really like the new energy I feel! Quitting smoking: I can only say thank you from the bottom of my heart. In many ways you helped save my spirit and resolve during the darkest days I have known. Whatever I face now, I have inner strength and understanding that I never had before. With love; and appreciation for all you have done for me. The most subtle yet powerful thing I've done for positive change in my life. It's uncanny. I never thought in my wildest dreams that I could do it because I was totally hooked as a smoker for 51 years. I'm now a non-smoker with Gina's hypnosis program! I had the desire to quit and as soon as I saw her, I knew that she could help me. She looked genuine and caring. And when I quit smoking, I didn't have any withdrawal symptoms and I haven't gained any weight. Unbelievable. I feel better than I've felt in years." I think you're doing wonderful work. Congratulations on your blooming ministry of healing! There is a wholeness to you that shines and I am thrilled that the light is aglow these days. Love and prayers and hugs. Don and I are doing well. We are non-smokers, thanks to your professional expertise (and with me, your patience!) Don has not touched a cigarette since Feb of 2002 and I have not since May of 2002. Thank you so much for helping us. Just to let you know, since I did the hypnosis group with Gina Orlando I have not had
ONE cigarette, ONE craving or gained ONE ounce!!! (an email) Just wanted to say hi. I'm still smoke free and In case any of you are trying to lose weight, reduce stress, stop smoking, increase motivation or enhance your self esteem I wanted to pass on the name of a local hypnotherapist who offers both group and individual sessions. Gina is a lovely person, very qualified and expert at what she does. On March 1, 2004 I visited you for our stop smoking session. It worked immediately for me and has continued to work. I am just delighted! Now I am able to participate in an exercise program six days each week and to walk briskly without becoming short of breath. I am certainly much more active and healthy now than at the start of this year. Many thanks! Gina, I am still a NON-SMOKER. I rarely think about smoking any more. There is an occasional thought every once in awhile, but that is it. Last week, as I was leaving the house, I questioned myself as to whether or not I had everything. Did I have my cigarettes? Oh no, I don't smoke any more!. Sleep improvement: My daughter is doing so well. She sleeps well now 98% of the time. This has made a huge change in her life and our lives. Thank you! Sport therapy: Had to tell you. My golf game has improved considerably this season, but last night was a magical hour on the basketball court at the Gottlieb Fitness Center . There were only
two other guys there, both hot shots, very good players in their early 20s.
We played the strenuous game called "21" where it's every man for himself,
two guys playing defense against whoever has the ball. When I started hitting 3-pointers, the two defenders (one was about 6' 4" the other my height) guarded me closely. I'm an old guy (62 next month) and I've never been quick on the dribble, so it was impossible to drive
around them for lay-ups. Instead, I put up jump hook shots from 25 feet--and
they went in. I'd get a rebound, race to the 3-point arc, turn and shoot in
one motion in the direction of the basket and barely get it off over their
outstretched hands. Nothing but net! Just about every time! They were
overplaying me so much on the outside that on rare occasions I was able to
surprise them with a race to the basket, putting in a reverse left-handed
lay-up once and a wild underhand shot off the backboard from six feet another
time.
I've been playing basketball all my life, but I've never had a shooting
night like this before. Talk about being in the zone, I believed every shot
was going in--and about 90% of them did. I won both games we played. My
young opponents seemed devastated and happy for me at the same time. What a
high! I don't know how else to explain it. Self-hypnosis works. Thanks.
