Hi Dchow,
Between the lines I read that you are experienced. You've been there and done your best. And you are right, you've been hypnotized, at least somewhat, but maybe not enough.
Do you know anyone that is easily hypnotized or has experienced change by hypnosis (tapes or hypnotist or whatever)? Does your experience differ radically from their experience? You can alway model someone who has been hypnotized deep enough.
Try the Betty erickson technique. (Search wiht that name, there are plenty of links). I have expereinced my deepest states with it. Whew!
Buy a cd by Richard Bandler, or even better, Milton Erickson. If these don't work... ;-)
Make a self-hypnosis tape of your own. Take a good script and read it on the tape using your own name frequently, speaking with a loving, enthusiastic and relaxed tone (imagine the voice coming from your stomach). You can always make another tape if one does not feel right. Trust your feelings!
...and read carefully what Alex and Baba are saying. Respect your own opinions and take the advice. Don't take anything that does not feel right. people are alway writing from their own point of view (yeah, me too...). You know yourself what is best for you.
My 2cents, -purjo
