Business discussed:
Meetings will be held at least 10times per year. 1.5 CEUs will be earned for each NGH member, each meeting .
A monthly newsletter will be sent to members with a meeting notice and articles of interest to hypnotists. Members said they would provide articles about hypnosis applications and do demos at the future meetings.

A $5 fee will be collected from non-members for each meeting, except their first.
A treasurer will be selected along with other officers in December, to take over office in January. The fees and membership dues will be used toward scholarships for members to attend the Annual NGH Convention in August.


Mark Beck spoke about the relationship between meditation and self-hypnosis. He pointed out that both states exhibit the same brain wave patterns. He shared with us some of his insights about the practice of meditation and how he used self-hypnosis to shed 40 pounds. Fortunately, his book will be avail soon.
