The Hypnotizing Hands / Week 21 - Fox Tales

A few days ago, accompanying my friend Manuel to a Hypnosis Center, to stop smoking, as he was getting sick from his lungs and was very worried about dying and losing his wife and son. I drove outside the city and we arrived at a very peculiar house for its gardens, rang the bell, and a nice, fine lady opened the door and made us come in, and apologized to wait for a moment for her to finish a call. He took us to his office, and as we entered we sat in a small living room, where they talked about what was necessary to begin the hypnosis session; the Lady said, "Please! Manuel sits you down in the chair in the middle of the room and closes his eyes and thinks about some happy moments with his family and friends. Manuel did as she told him, the gentle Lady sat in front of him and continued to speak to him, placing her delicate hands on the side of his head and squeezing her eyes with her thumbs in a very subtle way, while she continued to speak to him. Then he asked him a question: "Manuel, think about the day you started smoking? Now think about the precise moment when you are taking the cigarette to light it, stop and think about how harmful it can be and then throw the cigarette away. Then she whispered to him, could not hear him, and little by little he was massaging his eyes, and when I took his hands off, and I saw on Manuel's cheeks that they were running a tear and smiling, and he said: "I had a beautiful dream with my family and friends where I felt healthy and I understood the damage he was doing to me. That day Manuel didn't feel alone, because he had my support and friendship. And I will never forget the mesmerizing hands of that lady, who changed Manuel's life.
