9 MAR 2021 · What would you do with the gift of shift? A shift in your perspective that helps you to stay positive in difficult times.
If at any moment you can shift your attitude, your thoughts, and your feelings? How would things change?
Lately FEAR has taken over. We were caught off guard and fear rushed in.
With all the changes to society: being lonely, fearful, and stressed because there was too much change too fast, and it seems like there is nothing we can do about it. I have seen first hand the results of this fear and the elevated anxiety and panic my clients are experiencing. In hypnosis I take them in their minds on a hypnotic trip to a calmer more focused place.
What if I can show you a way to hike up to new heights, new consciousness, discover a better way to feel or discover a higher mission in life, a new calling or purpose, to feel more positive energy, to see the big picture, and shift your perspective? If I show you how would you do it?
I am Valerie the Hypnotic Hiker. As a hypnotist and hiker for the past 20 years I have realized how much the two have in common for helping to shift perspective and gain insights.
I hike because it relaxes me. Instant mindfulness. When I started hiking it was for exercise. Now it is for my soul. Kind of like how the shower is for the body whereas a soak in the tub is for your soul.
Hypnosis is a lot like hiking. We decide we are going to do it, we start walking and before long we realize a lot of time has passed and we are no longer thinking of all our worries and concerns.
Our subconscious mind is in solving problem mode and we come off the trail with many solutions that are playing out unconsciously. If you have a problem, say to yourself that you want to find the solution at the end of your hike…start off on the trail and forget about it. It may come to you on the hike itself or it may be realized later, or even better it may resolve itself seemingly on its own (the subconscious really did that).
I’m an active person and so sitting meditations are difficult. I began using my hiking time as meditation time by focusing only on the senses. To do this you begin with noticing only the visuals, the shapes, the colors, etc. Do this for several minutes. Then move to notice only what you are hearing, then feeling. This practice over time will make your hikes more productive on the mental and emotional as well as physical levels.
It was time for me to shift my perspective as a hiker….And after miles and miles, probably hundreds of miles of Texas’ 600 ft above sea level trails, I decided it was time to elevate my path.
Last year, we did Guadalupe Peak in Texas (8,751), attempted Red Cloud (14,035) near Lake City, CO (a mudslide spoiled it) and Venado Peak (12,734) in New Mexico.
Just to clarify, we are not rock climbing. We are on foot, staying grounded while climb feels much more secure. And, we are not doing any extreme climbs, but rather some 7000-14000 foot elevations that are still challenging mentally and physically.
Black Elk’s Peak trail at Custer State Park in South Dakota is 3.3 miles to the peak, but my pedometer registered 5, so 3.3 that felt like 5 I guess. The meadow was the first visual that stopped me. A real meadow. Blue Bells, raspberries, Bergamot, and Black-Eyed Susan. Then as the elevation began to climb we hiked through a glitter field. Mica was all over the path. If you pick it up it is like a frail piece of simmering plastic.
Traveling past the meadow and mica field we were cooled off by the Ponderosa Pine. There were moss covered dump truck sized boulders. And then it seemed like we were just there and at 7,000 feet all I could see were other mountains and pines. I almost fell to my knees and I did feel a little tear roll down. It is a feeling like no other, to take in through all my senses only the natural world.
Hypnosis and Hiking / Hiking and Hypnosis, they are interchangeable.
Your subconscious mind is OPEN and SUGGESTIBLE on the trail. Anytime you are focused you are in a trance and nature provides new perspectives and insights and parallels.
Just think of how wonderful it will be to get outside to improve your circulation, take in some nourishing sunshine and step into a fresh perspective. But more importantly, find appreciation in the natural world…the rivers, the mountains, the rocks, the trees, the shrubs, the flowers, the animals, the insects, the spiders and the lichen. To find peace.
9 MAR 2021 · You know how we can tend to beat up on ourselves?
People from the outside are far nicer to us then we are to ourselves on the inside. Are most of your thoughts encouraging or discouraging? Do you focus more on what you don’t want...than what you want? Being mean to ourselves, talking down on our abilities or ideas and focusing on what we don’t want is kin to beating ourselves up.
In this first segment of the Hypnotic Trip shows series, you get to watch me as I beat myself up out on Browns Lake Trail and then through a divine insight quickly turn it around into a more loving voice.
Remember this: Negative thoughts are like ants and when you get too close to their mound, you get the heck out of there or suffer those stinging bites.
Here is the today’s lesson from the trails called “Have Mercy on Me”
The story I began telling myself began at 5:00 AM as the alarm sounded. “I’m not in my house, darn, I forgot to get a glass of water. Bryan will be up in 15 so I better get to the bathroom. I really hate, yes a strong word but the right word, hate getting up early and rushing out the door—especially in a strange house and without any control. They are his friends, their car and their hike.”
Packs with rain gear and jackets line the wall near the garage door, mine contains a GoPro, turkey jerky, potato chips and 64 oz of water. All set.
It’s an hour and half drive to the trail head, I feel good physically and am excited about hiking in a new spot. They said it was four miles to the lake and a fairly difficult trail
In Texas, we sit at 600 feet above sea level, the summit today is about 11,400 feet. I can hike 10 miles in 100-degrees with no slowdown, but up that high, it turned out that I was the slow poke. The caboose. The last one, lagging behind about 100 yards and short of breath.
Very early in the hike I started to complain to myself about myself. I showed no mercy: “Come on! You can hike faster. They are going to think you are out of shape or worse hungover. “Why is this so hard, I thought I was in better shape. “Okay Val, you need to start hiking more.” (I had already hiked 80 miles in the month of July, which didn’t count waking the dog or other steps in the garden or the lugging of 40 pound bags of manure and building my greenhouse in the middle of the day in 100 degree temperatures.) “I need to be in better shape.” I needed to justify why I needed to stop and catch my breath. No mercy. “I am the caboose,” I realized with shame.
Now I was treating myself the way I used to treat ‘those walkers’ on the trail when I was a runner. “Get out of my way,” I would say under my breath, “this is a running track, it is a track field “a track for runners and sprinters. Not for walking slowly or worse with your child in a stroller!” I didn’t want anyone or anything to slow MY pace. Even the weather. I would run, cursing the rain for slowing me down. This went on for about eight years and finally when I turned 50 I chilled a bit, I stopped running in parks and suburbs and became a trail runner. I was relentless there too but not as mean, and never mean to myself.
“Blessed are the merciful for they shall obtain mercy.” stopped my rant. I was reading The Sermon on the Mount by Emmet Fox and the Beatitude, “Blessed are the merciful for they shall obtain mercy,” drifted into my consciousness. “The Law of Life is to be merciful in your thoughts and be congruent with your actions,” Fox explains.
Fox explains further, “be free all from the weight of our condemnation and then it is possible to absolve yourself from self condemnation.” “I am sorry, I am very sorry,” I whispered to release myself as I observed my situation.
As I softened, I stopped and looked around and was in “the moment”. I was on a mountain in the Comanche Peak Wilderness in Colorado. Browns Lake Trail Group,
The pedometer showed we had gone 4 miles (and I grumbled for most of it), almost to Browns Lake. A flowering meadow surrounded me. The sun was shaded by clouds, the wind was low. And a light mist introduced us to the possibility of rain.
So, it was not the distance or me being out of shape, it was the 11,427 foot elevation that was slowing me. I had heard of people getting sick or having headaches.

I have climbed many mountains in my life and have hiked thousands of miles (metaphorically too I might add). What I know is that when you are on a hike you are in hypnosis, you are in a trance and in that state you are poised to have powerful transformations.
And speaking of transformation I hope you are ready to have one b/c part two of this video includes a meditation for releasing anxiety. https://youtu.be/jFOezUnUXHE
Today’s trip happens at The Wichita Mountains near Lawton, Oklahoma where it snowed the night before. I wasn’t expecting the snow and so I was not thinking right that morning when I saw it.
I was on a mission. We drove to Lawton to get footage for this show and the snow was ruining it. I am tellin’ ya…I get thrown off just like the rest of you..
I was trying to roll with it but in the back of my mind the snow was really throwing off what MY PRECONCEIVED idea about what this hypnotic trip was about. And what is funny is the show was already about Positive Thinking. Ha! Talk about being caught off guard.
There was a moment mid-day when I was following Bryan’s footprints in the snow as he, with the excitement of a child, ascended the snowy mounds that I let myself get a little excited about the snow. Then he talked me into going to Elk Trail and as we walked through the icy wonder to the trailhead I realized there was not another soul around, I melted. And I thought about the Beatitude:
Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness for they shall be filled.
So what does that have to do with Right Thinking? Well, righteousness as taught by Jesus means Right Thinking. It is about making whatever thought you want be something you crave…hungering and thirsting after a thought. In other words, you WANT it badly.
Whatever motivation you have is producing your automatic thinking. Motivation has to do with your desire, your hunger and thirst for what you want. And sometimes we can have an unconscious motivation for a negative thought. Disappointment can cause us to dwell on the thought we didn’t intend. It hits us when we are caught off guard or caught up on something. That is how a negative thought sneaks in and once in, it persists because that is all it can do, until a better thought takes its place.
That is why this beatitude is so hard to do. We can strive to think right (positive) thoughts but if there is a strong motivating factor for keeping us stuck it is very hard to make that change. This may make us feel weak-minded and want to give up on ourselves. But please don’t do that.
The secret is to change the motivation and then we can change our thinking…it started to happen to me when I was awestruck by the peaceful perfection all around me. I got caught off guard my a positive experience and that was a better emotion and therefore took the place of the past negative motivating factor.
If you want to control your circumstances for harmony and happiness you must first control your thoughts for harmony and happiness, and then outer things will follow. We can not think one thing and produce another this would be contrary to the Law of the Universe.
I realize that habits of thinking are the most difficult habits to break and can send us into self-condemnation which produces more trouble. But, if you are truly wholehearted in our efforts that is to say that you are really hungering and thirsting for righteousness, then, you shall be surely be filled with goodness.
My gift to you is a walking meditation https://youtu.be/jFOezUnUXHE so you can find a more positive motivating factor that lines you up with right thinking and then right actions…keep in mind you really really have to want it…hunger for the good, thirst for the good…get emotional about what you want to create.

1 LUG 2021 · I’m Valerie the creator of HypnoticTrip.com. What are hypnotic trips? They combine hiking, hypnosis and divine inspiration to help you evolve to be your best self.
I have climbed many mountains in my life and have hiked thousands of miles. What I know is that when you are on a hike you are in hypnosis, you are in a trance and in that state you are poised to experience a transformation.
Today’s story tells of such a transformation: mentally, emotionally and physically. And takes place at Big Cedar Wilderness in Dallas County where Lori shares how she stayed focused on her goal to do 10,000 steps a day and in the process learned a lot about Intention.
What? Another trip? Did I miss one? Yes, you missed the show about How to release anger from the snow covered Wichita Mountains” So please subscribe now so you can go on all our trips.
Now, on to Big Cedar Wilderness.
Each year Lori creates a Word of the Year (dub in her saying that)
So, in January of 2020 she set an intention to walk 10,000 steps a day which she did for 101 days, until she got a sinus infection, but as soon as she was well she restarted and committed again to 365 days and got to 301 days, (dub in her telling that story)
Since she did 101 and then 301, NOW her goal in 2021 is 501 days in honor of her loving father who passed away in February.
We met at Big Cedar Wilderness area to hike and talk about her experience and our first stop was her favorite spot which is the tree that chose life over death. And it demonstrates what it looks like to NOT GIVE UP.
She started hiking with her grandfather at an early age and hiked many miles in Huntsville Alabama before moving to Dallas.
She is in outside sales and so drives a lot but that gives her the opportunity to explore a lot of different places to hike even in the DFW Metroplex.
Some days it is a challenge to get the steps in…she gets in maybe 20-30 minutes on a trail and then parks further out in the parking lot and takes the stairs and sometimes when she is home from work she has to walk around the neighborhood before dinner.
Sounds like a lot, but…..Intention can snow ball…it starts rolling down the hill and then builds up mass…then it is unstoppable.
Lori has that unstoppable momentum because she is enjoying the benefits of walking..the sunshine which is immune boosting and the fresh air…she finds that she has more energy and feels stronger and as a side bonus has released about 85 pounds so far.
Lori is so mindful and appreciates the little gems she finds along the trail, that kind of appreciation creates a fondness for nature.
Nature tends to wake you up to the simple pleasures. And has messages, like the tree that chose life over death. The tree that didn’t give up, just like Lori.
When I say the word MEEK, what comes to mind?
In a random poll I found that people think being meek means everything from calm, timid to unpretentious. So, what does the MEEK really mean? In the Bible, Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth and,
According to my favorite resource, Emmett Fox in his ‘Sermon on the Mount’ book, Meek means to have emptied yourself of all preconceived ideas and habits of thought. To have an open mind and faith in God (or your higher power).
You probably know by now that what you think about you attract.
If you knew that meek meant that then you could say that Lori is Meek and further the earth she inherited is the good health and vibrant energy that she puts into the service she was called to do.
She has an open mind and a faith in God to meet that goal. It is unusual for someone to get thrown off a goal and to get back and set a harder one…most give up.
But Lori opened her mind to a new possibility and believed she could accomplish it. she pushed out all doubt and therefore inherited the earth…manifested her desire is another way to say that.
Here is a wrap up on that Beatitude:
Meek is an open mind and faith in God or your higher power.
Earth = manifestation and to inherit the earth means you have dominion over your outer experiences.
Remember this: manifestation is the result of cause and all causation is mental
Fox states in his book, “all of your affairs, home, business your body all of your experiences are but the manifestation of your mental state.”
So the Meek truly can inherit the earth. If you want to talk more about that, leave me a comment below, I would enjoy the conversation with you.
