Dr. J. Ojeda Hypnosis * Psychotherapy
Here's a funny one... Oh, Doctor!
* The famous surgeon and his wife
were in their library. "Robert," his
wife exclaimed, "Why did you tear
the back part out of my new book?"
"Excuse me, dear," he answered,
"the part you speak of was labeled
"Appendix" and I took it out without
thinking." (Smile.)
* House wife: "Look here my man, why do
you always come to my house to beg?"
Tramp: "Doctor's orders, madam."
Housewife: "Doctor's orders?"
Tramp: "He told me that when I found food
that agreed with me I should stick to it."
(Smile.)
* "Doctor," said a patient, "It is
mighty nice of you to come all this
distance to see me." "Oh, that's all
right," said the doctor. "You see, I
have another patient in this section
so I thought I would just kill two birds
with one stone." (Smile.)
* Mrs. Nash complained to her doctor
that his bill was too high. "Don't
forget," the doctor reminded her,
"that I made eleven visits to Johnny
when he had the measles." "And
don't you forget." She replied, "that
Johnny made you lots of money by
giving the measles to the whole
fourth grade!" (Smile.)
* A visitor from New York was
visiting a Californian. They were
standing out in the open. "Looks
like rain." said the New Yorker.
"Won't rain here," replied the
Californian. "Well, look at those
clouds up there." "Those clouds
don't mean anything. They're empty.
They're coming back from Florida."
(Smile.)
* "Did you go to another doctor
before you came to me?" "No."
replied the patient. "I went to a
druggist." "And what foolish advice
did he give you?" "He told me to
come to you," said the Patient.
(Smile.)
Laughter Succeeds Again
* A delightful induction which I recently experienced with Hypnotherapist Dr.
Joseph Ojeda of Middletown, New York has to be the best I have heard.
Dr. Ojeda was helping me with a health problem. During a visit to his office, a
road construction crew was creating a terrible racket outside. He began his
induction, "... and you find yourself beside a beautiful stream"--- (Bang! Clang!
BOOM!)-- "... and over the hill, there is a road being built... The sounds of
construction just carry you deeper... and deeper... and deeper..."
I burst out laughing, and as we shared a moment of merriment and light banter,
he continued smoothly," ... and deeper..." with that I collapsed into peels of
laughter. He again joined me. As our laughter subsided and he continued, I did
indeed find myself in a wonderful deep state!
It occurs to me that this could become a popular and effective method of
induction. Laughter certainly does leave one relaxed at all levels, and with a
sense of balance and calm. I observed that the time it took me to reach a nice,
deep state seemed even shorter than with usual inductions.
As I think back to that day, I see what a wonderful way it was of establishing
client-therapist rapport. The laughter, rather than being an interruption, actually
enhanced the induction and rapidly deepened my consciousness.
