Hello fellow NGHer's and others reading this,

Welcome to another month of news from the local state
chapter of the National Guild of Hypnotists.

As usual, I must rave about last month's speaker, Katie
Evans of Living Lite. She's a very dynamic speaker with
lots of information to share. Her many years experience as
a Hypnotist and business owner of a franchise, has given
her a wealth of marketing experience that she was so
generous in sharing with us. I know each of us took away
a renewed feeling of possibility and enthusiasm for
promoting our practices as well as practical tools to get
the job done.

This next meeting, on Friday, May 12th is bound to build
on that concept of promoting our businesses by having the
right and professional Internet presence. Bal Simon will
speak to us on what it takes to make our internet presence
as powerful as we are!

Please be sure to join us and learn all you can to have
the best Internet presence possible.

Please note: Our speaker and topic is different than
originally planned. Due to unforseen circumstances, our
Website designers were unable to present this month. We
are fortunate to have such a wonderful replacement.
Please see nghwa.org for more information.

Some annoucements:

Positive Changes, a franchise hypnotherapy business, is
looking for hypnotists, hypnotherapists to work for them.
They do have a non-competing clause condition, which you
will need to talk with the managers about, but it could be
such a great opportunity for anyone who does not currently
have a practice or is just getting out of school, and
would like to gain experience working with an already
established hypnosis business.

Please contact in Bellevue: Christine Morton General
Manager phone 425-274-8000 fax 425-274-8004

or Sheryl Manchester who is looking for 3
hypnotherapists for the Portland office. Regional Director

Deborah Kaye, who spoke at our March meeting, and who does
alot of work with EFT(tapping) is looking to hold a
workshop on EFT for interested parties. Please call her
if interested at 206-526-2959.


Wow, have you noticed how beautiful it looks outside these
days? I'm entranced! As I look all around at nature and
all of its beauty at this time of the year, I'm reminded
how the winter, as dreary as it may seem at times, is
really the time when nature is storing up its energy to
produce this magnificent blossoming that we are
experiencing right now. And just as nature had been
storing up the energy to get things really moving, I'm
reminded that one of the reasons I decided to serve on
this Board was to help bring more awareness to the
profession of hypnotherapy. I and I know all the Board
members that are serving with me agree, that our meetings
and speakers provide a forum for us and an exploration of
how to get more of our services to those who need our
help. I think it's the Springtime for Hypnotists--we're
blossoming now, we can show our beauty by bringing our
professional services to more people. How? you might ask.
Let's get going on Group Advertising. Who wants to help?
Who wants to blossom? Who wants to be known? We can
present ourselves as a group of professionals in various
communities, who are ready to welcome new clients and
support people in their desire for change for more beauty
in their lives. It's Spring, going on Summer, people are
ready for us. Let's be ready for them. Call me or any
other Board member, or better yet, show up at the meeting
on Friday and let's get a committee formed to spring into
action!
