Have you ever wondered why when you have tried to change a habit or behavior it usually resurfaces? This is because our conscious willpower usually cannot compete with the power of the subconscious mind. The subconscious mind is considered to be the source or root of many of our behaviors, emotions, attitudes and motivations. Hypnosis is believed to be a powerful tool for accessing the subconscious mind and creating dramatic improvements in our lives. During your private hypnotherapy session you will remain completely aware of everything that is going on. In fact, many people experience a hyper awareness where sounds appear enriched, thoughts clearer and your ability to imagine and visualize is greatly enhanced. It is common for these hypnotic experiences to create sensations of deep relaxation, fluid warmth or a pleasant tingling sensation or buzz throughout your physical body. Many describe the hypnotic state as a complete and total escape from all physical tension and emotional stress, while remaining completely alert.

Americans tend to grapple with self-esteem more than the rest of the world because of the emphasis we place on indicators of self-worth such as what kind of car you drive, how we compare to others, what school your kids attend, grades, how big of a house you have, title at work, etc.). The difference between someone with a healthy or good self esteem and someone who doesn’t isn’t ability — its simply the acknowledgment of your strengths and weaknesses and moving through the world safe in the knowledge that they are both okay to have.
