Life is unpredictable, which is a two-edged sword. On one hand, you are always on your toes, waiting for life to throw you another curve-ball. On the other hand, you are aware that sometimes those changes may not be as fun and exciting as you expect them to be. Whether life decides to be merciful or cruel towards you, one thing is for sure - you need to be ready to deal with life-changing events so that you don't feel like a fish out of water when they do come, struggling to catch your breath! Don't wait for things to reach that point where you have no other choice but to opt for hypnotherapy to help with your anxiety. Instead, start getting mentally ready for what certainly lies ahead - new and unexpected turns of events. 

What Makes Hypnotherapy so Effective in Treating Anxiety and Stress? ‍ We are addressing the underlying emotions that feed the anxiety. Effective hypnotherapy can quickly, usually in the first session, get right down to the source of the client’s anxiety through age regression work. In the hypnotherapy session, we always begin with the current situation or triggering event in the client’s life. So perhaps they describe becoming extremely anxious when facing a public speaking engagement or having to go in front of their professional board for an oral exam, having to speak to their boss or performing in a sporting event.

People often have what Dr. Fritz Perls called “unfinished business” with whatever has been lost, be it a loved one, a job, or a home. These unresolved feelings, such as resentments, regrets, blame, anger, guilt, jealousy, and fear are stored in the body and must be released as soon after the triggering event as possible. Otherwise they become deeply buried beneath the numbness created by the anti-depressant drugs, the addictive behavior, and the concurrent repression that occurs when trauma and grief go untreated. Clinical hypnotherapy works for depression because it removes the underlying basis of depression and completes the unfinished business that otherwise continues to recycle as self-sabotaging thoughts and behaviors.

A lot of people have brought this topic up recently, so I have decided to explain, in my own and others' words, how this "works" and how effective it can be in relation to your present-day issues. This topic may seem a bit strange for some. I was admittedly luke-warm to the idea at first. Here are some versions of explanations that may shed some light on this controversial subject:

An addiction can take control of a person’s life! For example, a successful man who is an alcoholic can lose everything including his business, family and reputation because of the devastating affects of his alcohol addiction. Alcohol is just one of many debilitating addictions that can affect our lives. Others include tobacco, prescription medication, food, recreational drugs, gambling or even sex. When a person is under the power of an addiction, that addiction controls their work rel...

Most people respond to pain - whether acute or chronic - by taking drugs of some kind. But drugs are often a temporary solution.

Are you one of those who mortally fears flying in an airplane or getting into an elevator? Are you one of those people who would rather live on take out food for days if you found a rat in your cupboard while cleaning? Then, it seems to me you have a phobia. But before you start hassling yourself with it, let me make it clear that a phobia is very different from fear. Fear is a rational feeling, which is driven by the instinct of survival; let’s say fear of falling or fear of tou...

A person’s responsiveness to hypnosis is dependent on several factors. Whether these factors work together or oppose each other is entirely in the hands of the individual. There are factors that are outside of anyone’s control. They come down to the individual makeup of each person. For instance, if someone is naturally responsive to suggestion in their everyday life, they likely will carry along that responsiveness in the hypnosis process as well. Everyone is responsive...

This is a blog post that is very personal to me as it was grief and loss that changed and continues to change my life to this very day.

Happy 2017 to all of you!! This year is YOUR year! What is holding you back from being happy? What road blocks in life do you face that you wish you could move out of your way in order to succeed? There are often subconscious reasons why we feel "stuck" and "lost".

Letting go of anger is easier than you think! I used to be known as a "hot-head" and could be easily goaded into fits of rage. That is, until I discovered the healing capabilities of hypnotherapy. I decided that anger was getting me nowhere and wanted to change.
