*Hello Newsletter Friends:* - *Thought for the Day: Which is worse worldwide?* *Current number of people who have died from COVID-19: 320,000* *Number of people dying of Smoking: Over 8 million every year (Source: World Health Organization).* Public Health of *Canada* has reported that in 2017, 64% of *Canadians* over the age of 18 were *overweight* or *obese*, and about 30% of children aged 5-17 were *overweight* or *obese*. - *Gratitude Thoughts:* Did you know that about 23,000 of our fellow human beings die every day from hunger? This statistic is higher now with the current world economic downturn. For many people, there is such a huge difference between what we need and what we want. If you always want more, you can never feel satisfied. Before you fall asleep, think about what you are grateful for today. Do this again just after you awaken. - *Hypnosis Fact:* Thousands of methods of helping people have come and gone. However, hypnotism, by the same name, has been a preferred treatment for everyday people with everyday problems for 180 years. Hypnosis often helps when everything else has failed. Whether your session with me is live or using one of my hypnosis recordings or downloads, this method is often chosen as a last resort by people. After using hypnosis, it is common for clients to say: “I wish I had done this years ago.” *Hal Elrod quote:* “There is no better day than today to do the things you've been putting off. Take action; it's the only way to change your life!” *Upcoming Live Seminars: * Live seminars are indefinitely postponed until coronavirus fears subside, likely until 2021. Hypnosis recordings have proven successful results. They are cost effective, easy to use in your own home and on your own schedule: Do you need help with stopping negative thinking, sugar addiction, smoking, sleep, nail biting, alcohol, gambling, weight loss, stress management, pain control, overcoming a broken relationship, anger, procrastination, concentration, self-hypnosis or dozens of other areas of motivation, health, success and happiness?

This can affect every phase of your life. It can help you do the things you should do, but don't feel like doing. It can keep you from procrastinating when an unpleasant duty faces you. But it can also help you do those things that you want to do. It helps you seize those precious moments that, if lost, may never be retrieved.” *Make a sign for your desk that says: “DO IT NOW”! * *Stress and anxiety, do you have it?* *Millions of people are experiencing fears of COVID-19, anxiety and stress from isolation and financial pressures:* Here is my manuscript with free help for stress management: *“Over 35 ways of Controlling Stress”*.
