Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy Kelowna

---

Many individuals can experience symptoms associated with painful circumstances, losses, anxiety, fears, self limiting behaviors and beliefs. Some may turn to self medicating their symptoms though pleasure seeking behaviors such as food, or smoking, leaving them with conflicting emotions around their health, self worth, or ability to succeed. As a result healing the emotional and behavioral effects of these things can be challenging and over whelming, and is best not done alone.

Self limiting behaviors and beliefs often hold people of all walks of life back from realizing their true potential for a full, peaceful, and successful life. Often times, these behaviors and beliefs are embedded into the unconscious mind early on, which is the programming responsible for the unconscious actions and reactions that often arise without awareness. Sometimes these automatic responses become self liming, and contribute to fear, anxiety, sadness, and stress just to name a few.  Through the use of trance in Counseling Hypnotherapy, the subconscious mind has the opportunity to bypass the conscious mind, allowing access to the self limiting mental programming that may be responsible for holding the person back. Through the use of helpful embedded suggestions, and direct communication with the subconscious mind, the possibilities for updated, self serving mental programming being embedded and over writing the old liming programming becomes actualized. 

Sessions are typically an hour. Usually the first half of the session is spent discussing what ever is on your mind, as this information is the basis for the helpful hypnotic embedded suggestions. The second half of the session is spent engaging in a therapeutic trance, followed by a post hypnosis discussion.

This service is useful to aid you in, quitting smoking, overcoming over eating, cooping with stress, anxiety, loss, fears, conflicts, athletics performance and many other behavioral and emotional issues.

Counseling Hypnotherapy is safe, although adverse reactions can occur in the event of a painful suppressed memory coming to the surface. However this is not common as the subconscious mind is wired to protect the body of traumatizing information, therefore will not resurface events that will cause irreparable harm to the person.  The subconscious mind is intelligent, and will not accept suggestions made during trance that do not align with the best interests of it's person. Although the subconscious mind can be persuaded by suggestions, it can not be controlled. Someone in trance is always in control and can come out of trance at any time. Stage hypnosis has contributed to the common misconception that people in a hypnotic state are at the full will of other another person, in this case the hypnotist. This is not the case. Hypnosis is a natural state, defined as "a state of highly focused attention". Anyone engaged in a movie, or daydreaming while driving down a county road is in a hypnotic state, in fact we are all in a hypnotic state multiple times a day, so why not make it work for you since your body already knows how to be in trance!

Counseling Hypnotherapy can be done online from the comfort of your own home, or directly in office.
