In medical school we used to classify keen insights and clever or astute discernments as “Pearls of Wisdom,” or just Pearls. Sometimes they were simply philosophical thoughts, and often they could not be easily classified, but were worthy of recollection. In this section I have included some random observations, insights, and thoughts that have impinged on my experiences in life as a doctor who uses hypnotic concepts in daily practice. Perhaps this section should just be labeled “Pearls.”
