Get More Clients
Book Your Promotional Video
Natural Therapies Pages is a Conference Partner and the ASCH has negotiated a special deal to promote you and get you more clients.
NTPages will bring a cameraman and professional interviewer to shoot a half hour interview with you that will be edited down to less than 5 minutes. It can go on to your NT page, your own site, in fact anywhere you want.
A green screen means that they can add your logos in the background. Very professional, and a great way for prospective clients to get know you and what you are about before they call.
Standard Price: $790
Conference Special : $295
All promotional videos must be prebooked and prepaid. Call Barbara on 1300 720 525
Limited Offer

President's Report

Have you taken a good look at what we are doing lately? This current executive is 6 months into its term and has brought about a swag of innovations to add value to your membership. We are bringing in Michael Yapko, the world's best, to not only speak at our conference, but to offer a unique two day training. Our Journal now includes significant names in the field. This month it is Richard Hill, Michael Yapko and David Spiegel. In the spring edition we have Ernest Rossi, Jeff Zeig, and Steven Lankton - all students of Milton Erickson.
We have now introduced product on to our website. Yes, members can now have their products sold on the ASCH site. The great advantage is that you don't have to set up costly shopping carts yourself.
We have also introduced a new brand. The "ASCH Hypnotherapist". You can now purchase DLs online that advertise you as a member of this exclusive group. These DLs promote Hypnotherapy as an intervention, and you as the pinnacle of the profession. You can leave them in the waiting rooms of other practitioners, medical centres, wherever you like. Learn More
We have secured you a deal with Natural Therapies Pages to get you your own promotional videos where you get to talk a little about what you do for just $295 when you come to our conference. Video is the next big thing on the web and those who have done it have had a massive upsurge in their practice. CLICK HERE
You can now buy tickets for conference and workshops online, easily and when you want to, and members of the board are now receiving international recognition as experts in the field, enhancing the reputation of the ASCH, and its members - YOU. Big names (we cannot tell you who just yet) are now willing to come out to Australia for the ASCH because they consider us to be the premier organisation. And its only April.
Remember the early bird for the conference finishes on the 30 April so book in now. CLICK HERE
All the best and remember, the ASCH is your association

EDITOR'S REPORT

April has been a great month for the ASCH. We had a successful workshop on PTSD and over 40 people turned out. Thanks to all those involved, especially Victoria and Ann. We are getting over double the number of regular hits on the ASCH website. We are receiving great levels of interest and bookings for the upcoming conference. We keep providing additional services and products for members and we are being rewarded with a constantly increasing number of new members. No doubt we will grow to be the largest association by continuing to do what we are doing. Well done everyone.
The early bird ends for conference 30th April - act now. Can book online CLICK HERE
Your ASCH Journal in the post (vol 31 Number 1 Autumn 2010)
Have you got product that you sell? All members can now place their products on our website for sale to the general public. We are getting an average of 2800 hits per month.

Is Branding really that important? YES!! say the experts.
So, see the exciting launch of a New brand in the complimentary field. The "ASCH Hypnotherapist" is an exclusive club.

Metaphor of the Month
Sisyphus (SIS-i-fus)
And so it came about that the high lord of the Underworld was kept locked up in a closet at Sisyphus's house for many a day, a circumstance which put the great chain of being seriously out of whack. Nobody could die. A soldier might be chopped to bits in battle and still show up at camp for dinner. Finally Hades was released and Sisyphus was ordered summarily to report to the Underworld for his eternal assignment. But the wily one had another trick up his sleeve.
He simply told his wife not to bury him and then complained to Persephone, Queen of the Dead, that he had not been accorded the proper funeral honors. What's more, as an unburied corpse he had no business on the far side of the river Styx at all - his wife hadn't placed a coin under his tongue to secure passage with Charon the ferryman. Surely her highness could see that Sisyphus must be given leave to journey back topside and put things right.
Kindly Persephone assented, and Sisyphus made his way back to the sunshine, where he promptly forgot all about funerals and such drab affairs and lived on in dissipation for another good stretch of time. But even this paramount trickster could only postpone the inevitable. Eventually he was hauled down to Hades, where his indiscretions caught up with him.
For a crime against the gods - the specifics of which are variously reported - he was condemned to an eternity at hard labor. And frustrating labor at that. For his assignment was to roll a great boulder to the top of a hill. Only every time Sisyphus, by the greatest of exertion and toil, attained the summit, the darn thing rolled back down again.

Joke !
With thanks to Peter Black; and Janine for forwarding it on.
A woman comes home and tells her husband, "Remember those headaches I've been having all these years? Well, they're gone."
"No more headaches?" the husband asks, ''What happened?"
His wife replied "Margie referred me to a hypnotist. He told me to stand in front of a mirror, stare at myself and repeat "I do not have a headache; I do not have a headache, I do not have a headache.."
"It Worked! The headaches are all gone."
The husband replies, "Well, that is wonderful."
His wife then says, "You know, you haven't been exactly a ball of fire in the bedroom these last few years. Why don't you go see the hypnotist and see if he can do anything for that?" The husband agrees to try it.
Following his appointment, the husband comes home, rips off his clothes, picks up his wife and carries her into the bedroom.
He puts her on the bed and says, "Don't move, I'll be right back."
He goes into the bathroom and comes back a few minutes later and jumps into bed and makes passionate love to his wife like never before.
His wife says, "Boy, that was wonderful!"
The husband says, "Don't move! I will be right back.."
He goes back into the bathroom, comes back and round two was even better than the first time.
The wife sits up and her head is spinning.
Her husband again says, "Don't move, I'll be right back." With that, he goes back in the bathroom.
This time, his wife quietly follows him and there, in the bathroom, she sees him standing at the mirror and saying,
"She's not my wife. She's not my wife. She's not my wife..."
