Write an article based on this "De-clutter your workspace. Listen to calming music. Try adding some blue. Add visuals that make you happy."
article: Clutter is a nuisance because it makes it harder for you to work. In addition, it can also contribute to your depression. On your good days, try to keep your work area uncluttered so that on your bad days, having too much stuff around won't bring you down even further. If you're depressed, you may also be feeling some anxiety about not being able to get your work done. That anxiety isn't going to help the situation. Try keeping yourself calm by listening to some music that soothes you, if your boss allows it. Of course, put in some headphones so you don't disturb your neighbors, particularly if you are in a cubicle or out in the open. Blue can be a calming color, keeping you relaxed. It can also help increase your productivity. Try adding some splashes of blue to your desk or work space or changing your computer background to a predominantly blue picture. If you can't change much, try adding a touch of color, such as a tiny stuffed animal or sticker where customers can't see it. If you can, add some pictures or art to your workspace that make you feel happier. Put up pictures of your kids if that's your thing, or have a desk calendar with cat pictures. You could also put up prints of artwork you enjoy.

Write an article based on this "Ask questions to initiate discussion. Encourage each member to speak. Maintain an awareness of individual emotions. Steer the group away from personal attacks. Keep track of what's being said. Get out of the way of a functioning group."
article: A discussion group may have trouble just taking off on a certain topic. Move the discussion along by asking open-ended questions to get people talking about the subject. Open-ended questions are ones that require more than a "yes" or "no" answer. You can ask exploring questions to get dialogue going, such as "What do you think was meant by 'objectivity versus subjectivity'?" Challenge questions can get a debate going, such as "What assumptions is the author making? Do you think they're valid assumptions?" You can also ask questions about relationships, such as "What are the similarities between these two ideas? What are the differences?" Diagnostic questions can be helpful as well, such as "What do you think the author's motive was for this scene?" As a leader, it's your job to help all the members in the group have a say. Some members will be shyer than others, which means you need to create a space for them to speak. For instance, you could go around the group and have each person say what they think, so everyone has a chance to speak. To be effective as a leader, pay attention to how each member is reacting to what's being said. If you ignore how members are feeling, you could alienate some of the group. That includes paying attention to their nonverbal reactions. They may be saying a great deal with their body language. Take steps to address issues as you notice them. For instance, if one person gets consistently cut off by another member, you may notice they cross their arms and glare at the other person. Try to mediate the problem by asking what that person thinks, as well as encouraging members to let others finish their thoughts before speaking up. While heated discussions can be fine, make sure everyone stays on point. They should be discussing ideas, not diving into attacks on other people, whether they're attacking people in the group or not. It's best if you can take notes somewhere where everyone can see, such as on a projection screen or whiteboard. That way, you have something everyone can focus on and refer back to, as well as a record of what happened in the group. If you prefer, you can ask a volunteer to do the note-taking. If the group is functioning on its own, try not to interrupt the flow. If the discussion is on task and clipping along at a good speed, try not to stop the flow by interrupting the conversation.

Write an article based on this "Plant a suggestion in the subject's mind. Speak the instruction after hypnotic induction. Target a particular behavior and/or sensation. Plan regular sessions. Consider other techniques."
article:
This is a more direct approach than the imagery method. This can actually involve a suggestion to use your imagination, but suggestions, if successful, should seem to take less effort. This method can result in more specific changes to behavior and/or perceptions than other techniques. More careful instruction on the part of the hypnotist will be required. After the subject is in the hypnotic state, they are receptive to suggestions and the hypnotist can pass along the instruction or condition. The instruction needs to be specific, but simple. Create a cue, such as the opening of eyes or ringing of a bell, to start and end the instruction's effect. Do not deviate from your calm, steady voice during the conditioning. Bring the subject out of the period of suggestion with the cue you created. If you are experimenting, it's best to try one suggestion at a time. If your subject choose a specific behavior they want elicited or stopped, modify your instructions accordingly. In the experimental setting, the hypnotist can try some practical suggestions as long as they are careful they will do no harm. The hypnotist can try suggesting the subject perform an action like take a drink, eat, write. The hypnotist could try having them respond to a command or stimulus such as doing one action when you play a musical note. The hypnotist can suggest something more complex--perhaps having them respond with a specific phrase when you give a command phrase. Stopping habits like smoking, nail-biting, and the like is a common use for this technique. This technique can also create behaviors and images like seeing lost friends, memory effects, and pain displacement. While this technique is not as drawn out as the imagery method, multiple sessions can still be useful for testing variations of the experimental version's effectiveness. Extended therapy sessions can also be beneficial. Maintain communication between hypnotist and subject to determine if the therapy is improving behavior and/or lifestyle. Make sure there isn't a more serious medical problem if prolonged sessions are not having an effect. If suggestion therapy isn't working, then the subject may need encouragement to pursue other methods. Examine the other hypnotic tricks/approaches like image and cognitive therapy for their potential benefits. Discuss with the subject if they are willing to try these other methods. If significantly more pronounced mental illness is presenting itself, then a mental health professional should be consulted for further examination.
