27 Mar Hypnotherapy – it’s not what you think!

By Nicole Berezny

Do you ever feel stuck or limited no matter what you’ve tried? 

Have you ever been curious or scared by the word “hypnosis?”

Well, Nicole is here to put your mind *literally* at ease by telling you all about a special service she offers called Heart-Centered Hypnotherapy. 

At Starr Therapy, we can’t get enough of giving you “aha!” moments, and hypnosis is a powerful technique that you can use to create the changes you want, design your future, and achieve your goals. 

MYTHS! A common misconception is that you lose control, become unconscious, or get amnesia during hypnosis. This is false. Hypnosis is a natural mental state that we experience everyday. You are in hypnosis when you are daydreaming, intensely concentrating, watching television, or drifting in-and-out of sleep. You are in control and aware the entire time, and in heart centered hypnotherapy the client is an active participant communicating with the therapist during the whole session. You simply feel as you would in meditation.

So what’s the difference between regular therapy and hypnotherapy? 

The state of hypnosis improves communication between our conscious and subconscious minds. When we feel blocked or stuck, it’s usually a symptom of being disconnected from yourself. Hypnosis quiets the conscious thinking brain or analytical mind, and allows the unconscious mind to reveal resources, insight, and wisdom that we don’t access in regular everyday life. 

Heart-Centered Hypnotherapy is a modality that can help you clear physical and emotional blocks, reveal meaning and self-understanding, and guide you on a path towards your highest good. 

Heart-Centered hypnotherapy aims to clarify the source of long term patterns by using regressions – going to past experiences in childhood, in utero, or past life – which have influenced your current mental, emotional, physical, or spiritual state. Processing these past experiences can alleviate and resolve the impact of these issues by removing blocks & baggage so you can heal and move forward in life in a new way. 

Yes, hypnotherapy can sometimes seem wacky and weird – but it works! And, we’re expressing fully. Whether you believe in your experience to be real or not, the mind is delivering a message to you through memory or creative visualization in order to be useful. 

Take advantage! Whether you see another Starr therapist or interested in joining as a client, I am there to guide you through the experience so you feel safe and get the full benefit of the process. The benefits can sometimes be immediate and dramatic, or they can be more subtle and noticeable over time. Either way, clients are often amazed and walk away with a different perspective. We hope to see you soon!
