Hi, I’m Art Kuhns, owner of Breaking Day Hypnotherapy, a certified hypnotherapist, Reiki Master/Teacher, mindfulness practitioner, and published author based in Paso Robles, California.
My journey into hypnotherapy, mindfulness, and energy healing began through personal experience. I lived with general anxiety for much of my life, and when it began to affect my health, I knew I needed to find a deeper solution. That search led me to discover the powerful connection between the mind, body, and spirit, which ultimately changed my life.
More than 15 years ago, I was introduced to Reiki, a gentle yet powerful energy healing system that became an important part of my personal healing journey. I fell in love with the energy of Reiki andI quickly became attuned to Reiki Master/Teacher. Not long after, I experienced hypnosis for the first time while addressing a lifelong fear of swimming. In a single, relaxed session, that fear simply disappeared. That moment inspired me to learn hypnosis and integrate it into my healing work.
I went on to become a Certified Hypnotherapist through the Hypnosis Motivation Institute (HMI), an accredited college of hypnotherapy. I am also the author of Affirmation Equation for Success, where I share practical tools for reshaping beliefs, reducing stress, and creating empowered, intentional change.
Today, I offer Reiki-infused hypnotherapy, mindfulness/meditation coaching, and Reiki classes to support calm, clarity, confidence, and empowered living. Through these practices, I have overcome anxiety in my own life and have helped many clients release stress, ease fears, improve sleep, and reconnect with their inner strength.
I am deeply dedicated to helping clients uncover and harness their innate ability to heal, guiding them toward a more peaceful, mindful, and harmonious life. I remain committed to continual learning and professional growth.
I am a member of the International Certification Board for Clinical Hypnotherapists (ICBCH) and the National Association of Transpersonal Hypnotherapy (NATH), with additional training in smoking cessation, inner-child healing, addiction behavior modification, spiritual counseling, and teaching and certifying Reiki Level I through Master/Teacher level.
I invite you to watch my introduction video and explore how Breaking Day Hypnotherapy can support your journey.
