Is Hypnotherapy in-person better? Why Not?

Hypnosis Online or In-person

Most people are surprised to learn that I perform hypnosis ‘online’ with my clients. Which is better? Great question. They both feel amazing. However, Which would you choose? I bet most of us would pick ‘in-person’. Ask yourself, why? 

A few years ago, if I were to ask myself that same question, I would say ‘in-person’ as well. As I think about how I felt then, I really cannot explain why. It could be that it is just the way I have experienced receiving help in my life. It is what I am familiar with. 

Would you be surprised to know that both ‘in-person’ and ‘online’ hypnosis or hypnotherapy produce the same results and perhaps ‘online’ is even better? Isn’t it funny how we can create limits on ourselves and others? Wow, now that is a deep topic for another blog. Let’s look at hypnosis for today. 

Here is the reality of it, are you ready?

You are coming to see me ‘in-person’.  We have already conducted the intake and you are ready for the hypnosis session.  You are in my session room sitting in the recliner with headphones on relaxing deeper and deeper to the sound of my voice.  I am doing what I do to help you create the change you want and you are feeling relaxed and comfortable. When the session is over you continue on with your day feeling great.

Now let’s take the same experience online with zoom. What would that look like?

We are meeting on zoom and have conducted the intake.  I now ask you to go someplace relaxing, perhaps your couch, recliner or your bed.  You relax and feel safe in your own home, in a quiet place.  You place earbuds or headphones on and you begin to relax to the sound of my voice deeper and deeper.  I continue with what I do to create the change you want and you are feeling relaxed and comfortable. When the session is over, you continue on with your day feeling great.

Did you notice any major changes?  I didn’t and neither do the clients I see on zoom.  If anything, you would be more relaxed knowing you are in the safe space of your own home. During ‘Covid’, I was able to help people to deal with their stress and anxiety in the safety of their own homes.  I have seen many clients on zoom all over the US and each has had the same awesome results as the clients I see ‘in-person’.  

So which is better? 

It is up to the client and their belief. As for the technique, it is the same.   

So, now are you excited to experience hypnosis online for yourself?

Five Steps to STOP the “What Ifs” and Increase your Power and Peace

Would you like to remain calm and empowered most of the time?  If you could stop stress, anxiety and the ‘what if’s’ with a few simple steps, would that be something you would be interested in?  Yes?  Then read on as I share my simple 5 steps to stop the ‘what if’s’.

Quickly, If you would like tips, blogs, special promotions and free stuff, then subscribe to my VIP Text Club with the form below. Thanks I promise not to send out more then 3 a month.

This technique, I am offering today, I use all the time.  It is a quick and easy method to reduce stress and anxiety and stop the ‘what ifs ‘anywhere and anytime. When you feel stress and anxiety regarding anything, it is basically a fear of some future event not turning out as you would like.  The ‘what if’ this happens and ‘what if’ that happens and so on.  (FEAR by the way is an acronym for ‘False Evidence Appearing Real’.  That is all fear really is.  When fear is faced, it is often exposed for what it really is, False Evidence Appearing Real)

The first step is to stop this feeling with a few deep abdominal breaths; breathing into the core or abdomen, filling it with air first.  Then, continue to slowly breath in, allowing the chest to rise as you continue to fill the lungs with air.  This is important.  This is the type of breathing that completely fills the lungs with air.  Repeat these deep abdomen breaths three to five times.  This type of deep abdomen breathing, signals the subconscious to turn off the ‘stress’ response and to turn on the ‘I am safe and happy’ response. 

Step two: Now that I have stopped the ‘stress’ state with my breaths, I ask myself, what is causing this feeling?  Is it real? What is the worst case scenario?  What is the likelihood of this really happening?  What is out of my control and what is in my control?  What can I do now?  These questions usually will cause the fear to dissipate.

Step three: Then ask yourself, what do you really want instead?  You have thought of the negative scenarios that you don’t want.  So, what do you want?  What is the desired outcome?  What does it look like, feel like, taste like, sound like.  Envision what you want. Like it is a picture or video with full color and sound, see what you see, hear what you hear and feel what you feel.   Now, how does that picture or video make you feel? Good, Right? Absorb that feeling into your body, wrap up in it.  Experience the outcome with your whole body. 

Step four: Now that you have your desired outcome with picture and sound, apply emotion to it.  The two strongest emotions are Love and Gratitude.  Fall in love with it and be grateful for your outcome as if you already have it.  Here is a little secret….your subconscious mind that controls habits, emotions, and behavior cannot tell the difference between reality and what is imagined.  Case in point, you feel stress when you imagine something bad happening don’t you?  It isn’t really happening right now, is it? Yet, your subconscious mind has set up your body ‘now’ in preparation for an imagined event.   So, when you are grateful for your outcome, before you actually receive it, your subconscious mind makes it happen for you. Why?  Because, when you are grateful for something, it must have already happened.   Be in LOVE with your new outcome.  Be Grateful for it.  Pretend it is your life NOW!

Step five: Now, play this new outcome every time the nasty past arises in your head.  When it arises, Say “STOP!  That isn’t me anymore.  This is me!” Then play your new life outcome and be sure to include all the emotions and BE GRATEFUL.
