about
When you have a chronic condition, you may not only struggle with the symptoms and pain, it may also be difficult emotionally. You may experience a sense of identity loss: essential activities may be limited, perhaps the ones you enjoyed the most. At times, you may feel lost, angry, anxious or confused.
Your well-being, even pain, is affected by mental and emotional states, including those that have been suppressed.
A clinical hypnotherapist trained in medical hypnosis can help you uncover subconscious messages and gently guide you through emotional and spiritual processes and mindset shifts.
Hypnotherapy directly addresses the psychosocial factors behind the origins and progression of a chronic disease (in addition to coaching, NLP, and somatic processes).
The approach
Hypnotherapy is a gentle method of positive transformation, which feels like both deep relaxation and focused awareness, like a spa for the mind.
It's for mentally healthy, functioning individuals, who simply want to get better, heal emotionally, and use their mind to support themselves in physical healing. It's all done in a spirit of acceptance and non judgement.
What is required of you?
Willingness to do the inner work. Give yourself a chance to go through the process.
What's the science
The Science Behind Mind-Body Medicine
Sciences such as psychoneuroimmunology (PNI), epigenetics, and neurochemistry explain the impact of mental and emotional states on immunity, cardiovascular health, and virtually every system in the body. They direct us to hypnosis as an effective mind-body medicine. However...
for you, the work is simple:
You show up, relax, and tune in as you are guided through the various therapeutic processes. The expanded awareness, including emotional awareness, provides insight that is transformational on the physical level, because it happens in the subconscious, and we know that the body is the subconscious mind.
Literature
The relationship between the body and mind in disease has been described in books by John E. Sarno, MD, Norman Cousins, Thorwald Dethlefsen, Don Colbert, MD, Bruce Lipton, PhD, Joe Dispenza, David R. Hawkins, M.D. PhD, Deepak Chopra, M.D. Robert Dilts, Bill Moyers, Caroline Myss, Candace Pert, PhD, Deb Shapiro. Belleruth Naparstek, Louise Hay, and in "The Science Of Mind" and many others.
Clinical Hypnotherapy is a Complementary, Mind-Body medicine. It's not an alternative modality; it's not used instead of physical treatments, but together with them, honoring the whole human: body, mind, heart, and spirit.
Some of the major hospitals in the U.S. that incorporate clinical hypnotherapy in their programs: Mayo Clinic, Johns Hopkins, Stanford, Cleveland Clinic, Phoenix Children's Hospital, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, VA.
