Did you know that PSTEc has a forum?

One thing that PSTEC has been missing, is somewhere for users to discuss their experiences with other users.

I am therefore grateful to Soie, (a watcher of this blog and also an advocate of PSTEC) for her kindness in creating such a facility.

She has created PSTECfans,ning.com. It can be visited here at http://www.PSTECfans.ning.com

There is a forum which is just waiting for you to use it.

PSTEC Updates for the last few weeks

Although the blog's been quiet this last month PSTEC has moved forward significantly.

February saw the arrival of the free PSTEC Updates which is another way for me to keep in touch with users and it's been a great way to ensure that people get the most out of the process.

The first month has seen around 500 people subscribe to the free updates and hopefully this number will rise as more people discover PSTEC for themselves.

The begining of February also saw the release of the PSTEC stop smoking system which has had excellent initial feedback.

As I approached the end of February I also started putting the finishing touches to PSTEC Advanced which will be released soon.

And as if that weren't enough, PSTEC is also moving closer to being able to offer proper certification for therapists. I haven't had time to undertake this myself because there is so much more PSTEC material still being worked on and many of these projects are absolutely huge.

After some initial discussion, Andy Eckley who is resident on the other side of the UK, looks set to be the contact for proper PSTEC certification. At the moment, PSTEC offers qualification by means of studying the PSTEC Level 1 audio. This will continue but in order to move PSTEC forward in a positive direction, any therapists who want it, will hopefully soon also be able to take a proper test in order to gain full certification by means of examination.

Andy also plans to offer a searchable database on which anyone practising PSTEC can be listed. This will be great especially for anyone without a website who wants to offer PSTEC either in person or coaching clients over the phone.

As soon as all of this is up and running, I'll post the details on the blog.

More physical problems being resolved

Ever since the launch of PSTEC I've received reports of physical problems being resolved.

When I created PSTEC I never intended it to find any kind of use for pain control or indeed for other physical problems. Despite this, PSTEC does often seem to work.

I've had couple of emails about this in just the last couple of days. One for example from someone whose foot had been painful since an injury many years before. They applied PSTEC to the pain and the memory of the injury. They inform me that when they did this almost nstantly the pain disappeared.

What the PSTEC audio appears to demonstrate is that it's not only emotions which become attached to memories. So it seems can physical pains which can endure long after all the physical side is resolved. In such instances PSTEC appears to work very successfully, detaching the pain from the memory in exactly the same way as it does with emotions.

I'm still not advocating PSTEC for pain or for physical problems because I believe anyone suffering such problems should seek medical assistance but the results are certainly extremely interesting.

PSTEC Stop Smoking System goes live

This is just a very quick note to any therapist readers of the blog. You may like to know that I have finally finished work on the PSTEC Stop Smoking System.

In some ways a system for successful smoking cessation is a complex undertaking especially when I have such a diverse range of potential users of the system.

There are some complimentary copies to give away though. If you have been particularly supportive of PSTEC or happen to have a website and are already advertising PSTEC Level 1 skills on there, then drop me a line and for now at least I'll send you a complimentary copy of the smoking cessation system.


Also nearly finished is an audio book, the title of which remains a closely guarded secret! That will be followed by the other audios which I mentioned a while back.

For anyone who's waiting on those other audios.... Rest assured, they are on the way. :)

Interesting Feedback

As more therapists discover PSTEC I continue to receive wonderful and varied reports. I wanted to publish one that I just received which clearly illustrates the wide variety of uses and just how good the results are when it is properly used. In this case the report comes from a talented and highly qualified therapist from Essex, Umesh Damania.

Umesh has studied PSTEC Level 1 and he is proving to be very adept with PSTEC.

"Hi Tim

Just to let you know that I had 5 clients in yesterday, and with 4 of them, I only used Pstec for the session.

* Lady with long standing anxiety that I’ve seen for over 15 sessions during the last 2 years. Round 1, sud 7 went to 3 and the thoughts were the same, but the feelings were diminished. Then round 2, sud 3 stayed at 3, the thoughts were still there, but could not bring up their feelings.

* Male client with sexual anxiety problems. Very analytical in nature. Seen him for a prolonged period with very little progress/ or shift in the anxiety. Started with working on these thoughts - Round 1 sud 9 to 4, round 2 sud 4 to 3 no feedback apart from confusion, round 3 worked on the anxiety, sud 10 to 2. Feedback was the "the tape made an amazing difference,
thank you so much"

* Newish client with extreme angry/violent issues. Round 1 sud 7 to 3, round 2 sud 3 to 1. Feedback, feels really silly about the outbursts, has small flashbacks, but cant seem to grab hold of them in his mind!

* Lady I’ve seen for 6 sessions regarding PSTD, panic attacks, anxiety. Worked in anxiousness. Round 1 sud 8 to 3, Round 2, sud 3 to 0. Feedback, can see the event still, but dissociated now, with no feelings. Confusion, like it’s happened to someone else.

So 4 very different cases and incredible results. Feels like the technique of choice now!

I’m going to see if I can work with it on weight loss clients somehow

Many thanks Tim, can’t wait to try it out on other stuff, as well as the smoking version one day!

If you are a therapist and you'd like to get these kinds of results then the PSTEC Level 1 audio will teach you how.

NB: the smoking cessation program should be ready for PSTEC therapists in a few weeks.

PSTEC In Spanish - follow up

On the 18th of December I reported the first us of PSTEC in Spanish. In the meantime Lou Ravelle (who worked with me on the translation) has used PSTEC with number of Spanish speakers and so far EVERY one appears to have been successful.

I promised to report follow up results for his first, (the young lady with a chronic fear of flying) and yesterday I received an email from Lou in Spain which I've attached below.

"HI Tim,

Just heard from the girl who flew to Madrid after having click track for fear of flying. She has just arrived back in Mallorca and had to phone me even though today is a very important fiesta. The return trip went even better than the outward bound one. She is over the moon and has booked for a weight loss session on Monday and recommended two more new clients for hypnosis.

It is good to see that PSTEC doesn't seem to have any language barrier

Regards,

Lou Ravelle"

From a business perspective what's interesting is that by knowing how to properly conduct a PSTEC session (which in this case Lou did for free) he has got 3 bookings from paying clients.

Therapists who want to know how to use PSTEC properly with clients in this way should get and study PSTEC Level 1

Spanish Version of PSTEC: First Results Are In!

A while back I reported the collaboration between Lou Ravelle and a colleague of his with myself to produce a PSTEC click track in Spanish. This is something which we hope will ultimately benefit Spanish speakers in far flung corners of the world with no access to other therapies.

As I said in a recent blog post, Lou is currently the only person in the world with access to the tracks and he now has the task of trialing them over the next few months to ensure that they work as intended.
Well the first results are in.
He has used the newly created Spanish track with his first Spanish client and the result appears to have been spectacularly successful. This is what he has reported.

"Hi Tim
I was able to try it out for the first time yesterday, on a young lady with fear of flying. She arrived at my office with a knot in her stomach caused by her feelings about an upcoming flight to Madrid on the 27th. The young lady was amazed! She went from a fear rating 10 out of 10 down to a 0 in one round. We did just one play of the audio and,in her words, she was a changed person and the knotted stomach had gone and she was looking forward to the flight. "

Such a powerful and fast result is extremely encouraging.
This was also the first time out for an updated and even more refined version the algorithm which I use in order to determine the optimum timing, duration, and spacing of the sounds in relation to the spoken content. From this first result it would seem to be success.

If you have Spanish relatives Lou can be contacted via either his websites.
