[Note from Frolic<\/strong>: Today, we welcome Lisa Straussberg to the site. She’s sharing her story of hypnosis. Take it away, Lisa!]<\/em><\/p>

PRELUDE<\/b><\/p>

This story was first shared at the Story Salon in Los Angeles on the evening of March 11, 2020. After a full day at work, I rushed to make headway in traffic, zigzagging across the windy Topanga Canyon road, at the same time trying to take in the AM radio news. Whispers of the pandemic were growing louder, so I wanted to be informed. <\/span>Within a span of 30min\u2013 between bits of spotty radio signal and incoming text messages\u2013 <\/span>\u00a0<\/span>I learned about the canceled NBA season, President Trump declaring a European travel ban, and Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson contracting the Coronavirus.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Now with half the usual audience at the Story Salon\u2013 whether by choice, commitment, denial or a mixture of them all\u2013 the event still went on.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

My story is about hope in the face of what I thought was only a happy time seared in the past that couldn\u2019t possibly come back because\u2013 well, that\u2019s not how life works. The truth is, it can, vividly so, and hypnosis proves it. In these changing and uncertain times, I hope my story inspires you to believe in good times ahead, too.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0THE STORY\u00a0<\/b><\/p>

In 2009, my first starring movie had its premiere screening at the historic Paramount Pictures\u2019 Sherry Lansing Theater.\u00a0 The event was called \u201cFreshly Squeezed,\u201d parading a delicious illustration of a juicy orange on it\u2019s digital flyer to showcase short films of select USC grads. I invited agents, managers, casting directors, and organized the car ride with my new LA friends. Strutting a cute dress and mini entourage, my excitement plumed. I was living my dream, and I was sharing it with a packed house of industry peers. Until recently I realized, I was honoring myself most of all.<\/span><\/p>

10 years later I met with a hypnotherapist. I reached the end of my rope. All the spiritual know-hows I practiced to feel centered were barely successful. That night in 2009 was supposed to change my life, I thought: I would be recognized as a rising star. I even signed with a talent manager, impressed by my performance and emotional range. But with years of nothing coming close to the experience I had on that film\u2013 so proud of the end result and overjoyed by the reception\u2013 doubt set in. I lost the small bit of confidence I gained. In my naivety, there was a single trajectory to one\u2019s career, and I wasn\u2019t very kind to myself if I didn\u2019t emulate this falsely perceived, upward path.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The hypnotherapist asked poignantly, \u201cTell me the happiest moment in your life thus far.\u201d Without hesitation I described the moment I saw my face on the big screen:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThe lights went down in the theater. The chatter stopped. The title appeared.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>

I saw my image, magnified\u2013 looking at me.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>

I was witnessing the vision for myself years before, acting itself out in front of my very eyes.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>

And just when I thought it was all in my head;<\/span><\/i><\/p>

The lights came up, the applause rushed in.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>

Gazing at the row of familiar smiling faces, clapping in my direction, I felt a surge of appreciation.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>

Warm feelings of recognition baked inside. The sense of accomplishment with what I envisioned when I set out to Los Angeles was priceless.\u201d<\/span><\/i>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

I cemented the experience as a god given miracle because\u2013 <\/span>it was so rare<\/span><\/i>. I could have gotten used to it, but I was embarrassed by how much I enjoyed it. Never wanting to lose humility, I continued to search for that high again, but wouldn\u2019t allow it in.<\/span><\/p>

The hypnosis lasted 30 minutes. I reclined, closed my eyes, and remained aware of what was being said. I attribute experimenting with meditation with my ability to pay attention and catch instances my mind trails off. While in this state of relaxation, I heard the hypnotherapist recount my happy memory projected on the big screen, surrounded by friends. The same feelings flooded my psyche, and<\/span> this<\/span><\/i> time I allowed myself to relish in the flashback, cracking a smile.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

I was instructed to listen to our session\u2019s recording as much as I wanted. I listened to it every day, twice a day: in the morning just before waking, and at night right before sleep. I was determined to seep positivity into my subconscious, short of drilling a hole in my head. I trained myself into thinking I needed a miracle, and a miracle it was.<\/span><\/p>

3 weeks later, I came across an email from my union SAG, promoting an annual video contest. I\u2019d seen that email last year, and instead of generating the same thought response\u2013 which at the time was, \u201cthere\u2019s no way I can do that,\u201d followed by the delete button\u2013 this time was measurably different. It percolated. The call for entries asked for stories about Los Angeles, showcasing the city in all its glory. I remembered my move to LA. Despite the struggles, I still wanted to be here for many reasons. And maybe those moments could be expressed in a film, around my favorite places highlighting the LA <\/span>I<\/span><\/i> see.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Suddenly, two friends popped into mind: one who I had become close to, having also grown up in Queens and a fellow NYU Film alumni. He\u2019s an exceptional film editor. The other friend, whom I have known in the same social circle, has a permanent penchant for fun. He is an expert videographer, and takes pride touting the latest camera models he purchases for his business.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The unfamiliar foresight that came next spoke to me like, \u201cWhy not broach the idea of working together on this project? If they\u2019re not interested, you\u2019re off the hook.\u201d So I wrote an email\u2013 a long email\u2013 to my two friends covering everything I could think of, convincing myself as I was trying to persuade them to fuse our talents and make something good. If anything, it could be fun. We would gain a portfolio piece for our respective trades, and maybe even win some prizes which I was happy to extend if we won.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

My rationale stepped in while typing. I hadn\u2019t worked in months. Having recently met with a SAG career counselor, I was advised to look into producing or volunteering to increase my confidence in filmmaking if that was the direction I was heading. Now it was all clicking into place. Producing a short would refresh my skills, draw from my film degree and act as a creative jumping point in job interviews. It was win win.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

The response? They agreed to discuss the possibility, <\/span>if<\/span><\/i> I put together a script. Then I panicked. Then I spent time crafting a story and put together a fancy creative brief for us to review.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

When I heard, \u201cLet\u2019s do it!\u201d come out of their mouths, I nearly passed out. This was actually happening! What did I get myself into? After the initial shock, I motioned to frantically build out a schedule and call friends who I preemptively cast, hoping they would actually agree and sought help on the days we\u2019d be shooting.<\/span><\/p>

***<\/span><\/p>

I describe my transition to LA as a heart-pounding roller coaster ride. If you\u2019re crazy or gullible enough to partake, there are two ways to approach it: Some people ride with their arms up enjoying every twist, turn, plunge, and upside down, criss-cross loop. Others have their eyes closed holding onto the rails for dear life. I may have occasionally opened my eyes\u2013 mainly to check if it was over yet. And while making this film had exhilarating moments, it wasn\u2019t a cakewalk. The hiccups felt like fast furious downward descents. Somehow, in inexplicable ways, things worked themselves out. The ride picked up again\u2013 to new depths\u2026and drops. The hypnosis recordings were instrumental in staying in the game. Once it started, I was going to see it through. My mantra became, \u201cJust get it done. The accomplishment will not be whether I am admitted to the contest, win the contest or get prizes from a win.\u201d I just wanted to get it done.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

It got done. 3min and 22seconds of it. I finally breathed a sigh of relief submitting it in the last hour. Two days later my short film entitled \u201c<\/span>Home is\u2026<\/span><\/i>\u201d\u00a0 made Official Selection in the 2019 On Location NewFilmmakers Los Angeles Video Project Premiere. I was beside myself. Full of excitement and exhaustion. Now I had to prepare for a premiere! Send the sponsors all needed materials, promote the date on social media, contact cast and crew, invite friends, and figure out what I was going to wear!<\/span><\/p>

The night of the premiere was a magical outdoor screening. Arm in arm with friends, cast, crew, and too many bouquets for 2 hands, I beamed on the red carpet. I also talked to press while trying to juggle an honorary plaque and a Certificate of Achievement from the City of Los Angeles. When the time came, the lights went down, the chatter stopped, my film started to play, and I saw myself again\u2013 magnified on the big screen. Here I was for the second time in 10 years to the month\u2013 just as the hypnosis suggested\u2013 witnessing the vision I had acting out in front of my very eyes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

And just when I thought it was all in my head;<\/span><\/i><\/p>

The lights came up, the applause rushed in.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>

Gazing at the row of familiar smiling faces, clapping in my direction, I felt a surge of appreciation.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>

It really was a miracle to re-create a momentous occasion through hypnosis. Keeping up with the recording diligently paid me a powerful reminder of what\u2019s possible if you can dream it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
