This applies to each of us. Why then do we often forget (or fail) to realize it? Quite possibly because- while your unconscious mind has that awareness- the conscious mind sets up effective blocks based on its interpretation of your history. It tells your story, sets limits based on conscious “reality” and gives doubt (based on reason) full reign. What the conscious mind does NOT take into account is that there is a power far greater in each of us that works with us and through us. All we have to do is be willing. Sometimes that requires setting aside the so-called conscious mind and trusting. Some call that a leap of faith, 12 steppers know the presence of their Higher Power, others notice what their gut tells them. NLP and hypnosis open you up to possibility. By connecting with your inner wisdom, you can access your unconscious mind and find that you are, indeed, more than you think you are.

• A meditation
• A visualization
• A relaxation
• A stress reducer
• A conversation with your inner self                    
• A change agent
• A journey
• A learning experience
• A visit to the past
• An opportunity to create the future

And might be described as : relaxing, fun, powerful, spiritual, profound, affirming, life-changing

The hypnosis my clients and I share has been this and more. Sometimes, we use the power of suggestion –and you are influenced ONLY by your inner voice. Sometimes we converse during the hypnotic state—and you find your own answers. Sometimes you find and create new attitudes and feelings about an aspect of your life— and you are always in control.

Myths about Hypnosis- what it will not be for you…

• Going to sleep — While relaxation is important to this process, it is a focused relaxation that allows access to answers, rather than a more random dream-like state of sleep.  Both your conscious and subconscious minds are present. Hypnosis allows focus on the unlimited subconscious rather than the more limiting conscious.
• Loss of control – Our work together is a cooperative adventure. You are ALWAYS in control of what happens.  My work is to facilitate as you make connections with your inner advisor, guide, and/or thoughts.  If anything, you are more in control as you ”let go” of the inner critic - because your attention goes to the solution rather than the problem.

All hypnosis is self-hypnosis.  I get to teach you how to do that!

“Co-Life Coaching is a new and unique opportunity to coach and be coached by friends, … and loved ones. In its most practical sense, Co-Life Coaching begins when two, three or four people who trust one another agree to set aside judgment-free time to coach someone who has asked to be coached… From personal experience and the testimony of those we have trained, it is evident that our lives can be richer, more vibrant, and more purposefully lived when we participate in a coaching relationship with others in whom we have trust.” –Levien-Eves

Someone I love asked me for a large sum of money. It took me three days to reach the decision to say no, and less than one minute to speak it to the person who awaited my response.  This was challenging for me– one of those times when I had no idea what the reaction might be or the outcome of what might follow. Initially I focused on how much I wanted to “help,” how I sometimes need to be needed, on how much of a difference my response could make in this dear person’s life.  Part of me wanted to say yes.  Part of me wanted to say no.  I was conflicted–big time.

Then I began asking myself important questions– questions I might ask a client. Questions such as, What would Jesus/the Buddha/Mother Theresa do?  Which conflicted part of me feels stronger?  What am I pretending not to see? and then, most important: If I say yes how will I feel afterwards?  If I say no, how will I feel afterwards?  Then I encouraged my conscious mind to stop participating in the wrestling match, connect with spirit, and KNOW that the answer would come.  For three days, I listened and practiced patience (with varying success).  When I awakened the third morning the answer was there. 

I know the power of words.  Sometimes saying, “yes,” actually stops the creative process.   The power of “NO” honors another person’s presence, independence and ability. Speaking the word, “no” sometimes takes courage. When spoken with love,”NO,” can be empowering –for all.
