Hypnosis and NLP

Why settle for hypnosis all by itself?

It's well established that using hypnosis all by itself can help some people to make positive, lasting changes in their lives. But we have found that combining hypnosis with other research-backed methods can help most people. To maximize our clients' results, we use a variety of neurolinguistic programming (NLP) and memory reconsolidation techniques, in addition to hypnosis. 

When used in combination by a skilled and experienced practitioner, these methods can help you overcome fears, change habits, clear trauma, build self-worth, and improve your emotional well-being.​

Hypnosis

Hypnosis is a safe and natural state of mind that makes it easier to learn (or unlearn) things quickly. All hypnosis is really self-hypnosis, and it happens to almost everyone many times a day. Maybe you’re daydreaming while driving or getting lost in a book. You might feel emotional while watching a movie, TV show, or commercial, or you could lose track of time while playing video games.

Despite what most people think about hypnosis, you stay awake and in charge during the process, and almost anyone can be hypnotized.

We help our clients get into this very relaxing state so they can more easily and naturally reach their own goals. Some of these goals may be to change limiting beliefs and ideas, get rid of emotional or behavioral problems, and identify and release uncomfortable thoughts, feelings, and memories that are hidden from conscious awareness.

By using this powerful state of consciousness, you can discover more about yourself, grow as a person, and heal. To solve your persistent problems, you need to change how you think or feel about them. Hypnosis makes this easier and faster than it would be otherwise.

NeuroLinguistic Programming

The way you perceive your external (senses) and internal (memories and imagination) world determines your thoughts and feelings. Neurolinguistic programming, or NLP, is the study of how you think and feel. How you think and feel about yourself, others, and your past, present, and future experiences (real or imagined) affects how you communicate and act. We can help you improve how you think and feel so you can get the results you want with less time and effort.

We use NLP to resolve internal conflicts (“I want to do this, but I keep doing that”), clear emotional trauma, change memories, increase or decrease the desire for certain foods, access emotional states, improve self-image or empathy, set up new behaviors, and more. It’s completely safe, sometimes fun, and it’s much easier than you might think.

Memory Reconsolidation

Memory reconsolidation is a scientifically verified, natural brain process that allows memories to change each time they are recalled. Did you ever play the “telephone game” as a child? Each time the message is passed to another person, it may change slightly and end up very different from the original version. Memory reconsolidation works in a similar way. Each time you remember an event, you’re actually recalling the last time you remembered it, not the original experience. While small, accidental changes to the memory usually go unnoticed, you can make intentional changes before it goes back into long-term memory.

Studies show that using memory reconsolidation to resolve trauma effectively reduces emotional pain from distressing memories. We manage that process through established and proven methods that we have been using with clients since 2010. These include the Rewind Technique and Integral Eye Movement Technique (IEMT). Many of our clients found these techniques, collectively, were more effective than EMDR, in less time and with less discomfort. Our safe and gentle approach can neutralize a memory’s strong negative charge so you can remember your past without reacting to it.

Clients usually shift from a moderately intense emotional response to a neutral state within minutes without losing any knowledge of their past experiences. Many of them feel such relief that they enjoy the process. It's useful for upsetting memories, guilt, shame, regret, resentment, grief, disappointment, fears, and unwanted habits.

Watch some of our past clients describe their experiences of these rapid shifts (especially Amber, Brad, Michelle, Rhonda, Vanessa, and Eric).
