Thoughts from the hypnosis office: Concentrate by taking a break!

When we lose our train of thought, walk into a room and forget why we are there or even when studying for a test, our natural inclination is to focus, concentrate and think harder. In this video, I’ll share ideas on how taking a break will ultimately be more effective.

Thoughts from the hypnosis office: Is your body lying to you?

Sometimes we focus so much on our symptoms or challenges that the body thinks we want those symptoms! It goes along the lines of “where our focus goes, that’s what grows.” But we don’t want our challenges to grow!

In this week’s video, I’ll share some thoughts on taking a break from evaluating our progress so that we can ensure we are accurately assessing our progress.

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

Thoughts from the hypnosis office: Save time and prevent mistakes by taking a break.

I admit it, I made a mistake recently when I uploaded a couple of videos! I could have just fixed it and hoped that the people who already saw last week’s video with the wrong name weren’t laughing too hard at me, but it provided a great coaching opportunity that I decided to talk about it here!

So often I work with people who have so many things going on that they start believing they don’t have time to take a break, or breaks aren’t encouraged or valued in their workplace. Unfortunately, pushing through when the mind or body needs a break often results in mistakes. So truly, breaks are often better for productivity and outcomes, along with morale!

PS- The two videos I posted incorrectly are now corrected! “Is your body lying to you” is dated April 13 and “Concentrate by taking a break” is dated April 20! Enjoy!

Thoughts from the hypnosis office: Spring into action!

This is especially important for people who have a tendency to reach for sugar or other snacks as a way to give themselves a boost during their afternoon break. You might find that springing into action and getting some physical activity will actually give you better energy to complete your day!

Thoughts from the hypnosis office: Want to quack like a duck? Hypnosis can help- if that’s what you WANT!

In this week’s video, I thought it would be fun to talk about why hypnosis is only helpful for people who WANT to participate. I thought this would be a fun way to also share some thoughts about stage hypnosis and the classic question: “are you going to make me quack like a duck?”

This video is a follow up to recent videos on various types of hypnosis methods:

Thoughts from the hypnosis office: Celebrate your victories, even if they’re not your goal

Sometimes our goals are so far off in the distance it can be hard to think they’re achievable, and sometimes unfortunately our goals might not be achievable and we need to re-clarify them.

In this video I’ll share some thoughts on how to celebrate the victories along the way to help you stay positive and focused.

Thoughts from the hypnosis office: Hope and renewal- it’s time for spring!

This week, I’m here to celebrate various themes associated with the spring season! Many cultures and faith traditions have celebrations of rebirth and renewal during this time of year (mixed in with magical bunnies and pots of gold on the other side of the rainbow).

I hope this video gives you some cheer!

Thoughts from the hypnosis office: Get back in the game with hypnosis coaching!

Sometimes we need someone to talk to, whether it’s to clarify our goals, to get our thoughts out of our heads, or to process them with someone we trust. Traditional therapy is often a great option, but I find that coaching hypnosis is a powerful and effective way to both process challenges AND get a push in the right direction to get started in making changes.

In this video I’ll share how I utilize coaching methods and provide ongoing sessions with my clients beyond the initial “root cause” model of my program.

While my passion and primary focus in the hypnosis office is root cause hypnosis, all of my clients ultimately also benefit from learning how to relax their mind and body with hypnosis.

Thoughts from the hypnosis office: Digging into “root cause” hypnosis

In my hypnosis office, I work with clients to uncover the underlying thoughts, beliefs, and feelings associated with the issue we are working on to get to the root of the problem. The general theory is that when you know
why the issue exists, then you can actually address it and make changes, rather than dancing around what you “think” the problem is.

I share in this video my own experience of dealing with hip pain that is actually due to back injury rather than a hip injury- it makes a difference in treatment, much like dealing with the actual cause of a confidence issue or a fear (two very common reasons people see me for hypnosis).
