Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
Happy spring! As some of you may know, I had a freak accident and broke my wrist a few weeks ago. I had surgery and now the arm/wrist is optimized inside with permanent titanium plates and parts! Thank goodness for skilled surgeons and, also, for self hypnosis–I’m healing perfectly. I am using self-hypnosis for accelerated healing, as well as pain management, as well as improving strength and flexibility and regaining range of motion. It’s working!
I’m reminded once again of how powerful and effective self hypnosis is as a tool. So, Michael and I have decided to begin again to offer our one-day seminar events and train others in “instant self-hypnosis,” as well as other topics such as quit smoking and goal manifestation through power of mind. Our new space in Bellevue off of Richards Road has quite a large area for a classroom.
First up: A Chance to Trance. A group event to learn about the mind, experience hypnosis and manifest a goal. More info is here: https://seattlenlptraining.com/live-seminars-personal-change-now/
It’s 2.5 hours, Saturday, June 25th, in our office space in Bellevue.
Description: Everyone can be hypnotized and learn to focus their own unconscious minds in powerful ways to achieve their goals. If you’ve ever wondered what trance is like, here’s your chance to experience it. A Chance to Trance. Experience hypnosis first hand and be guided through an ingenious process of goal manifestation by Neuro-Linguistic Hypnotherapist & Licensed Trainer of NLP®, Connie Brannan. Bring a goal for your life success!

Hello, Hypnosis Friends!
Our new hypnosis office space in Bellevue is shaping up! Actually, we’re on the boundary of Bellevue and Redmond, Bel-Red Road. We’re still unpacking the classroom aka Michael’s space, however my client work office is pretty much put together. My mother was an amazing artist, and I have numerous pieces of her work still to be put on the walls. Here are some photos of our office in progress:
It has all the elements that are important to me in a private office. Clean, nice, sunny, a “woodsy walkup” setting, lots of free parking, windows showing green, colorful art, and positive energy.
I know a private professional office space is important. It’s the difference between “playing at” hypnotism and being the real deal. Come work with me and Michael, and get your infusion of positive energy, empowering ideas and take action states of mind.
All the Best,
Connie

Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
Michael and I are offering a special hypnosis event in the Greater Seattle area on Feb 9th. It’s a seminar designed to help people achieve their New Year’s Resolutions. I’m sharing our press release below!
http://seattlenlptraining.com/achieve-new-years-resolutions-your-power-of-mind/
Coincidentally, yesterday I was talking to a man who works at a gym. He was commenting how quickly people “give up” on their goals, and New Year’s Resolutions about fitness in particular. Right now, this time of year the gym is packed (with good intentions and bodies wanting to work out and get fit) and then in a few days to weeks it’s “back to normal.” Only a few dedicated regulars. It doesn’t have to be that way. I gave him my business card!
Here’s our press release. Michael and I would love to share this tool called hypnosis with you. It’s something amazing!

Hello, Seattle Area & Beyond Hypnosis Curious & Enthusiastic!
What if personal control and change were easy? What if it were possible to turn “addiction” into “indifference.” It is! With the right tools. When you get your conscious mind and UNconscious mind working together on a project, success is easy.
It’s Halloween week, and we all know what THAT means! Candy everywhere, treats, at the office, leftovers at home, the kids piles of candy, candy clearance bins at the market, and etc. and etc. If sugar is one of your temptations, you can make it be different. You can make it be IN-different. We can turn that “addiction” into sugar indifference! How would you like to say: “No thank you, not right now! Not interested.” and mean it?! That would be preferable to “Gimme, gimme, gimme!”, wouldn’t it, if achieving and maintaining a healthy weight is one of your goals.
Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP offers private sessions custom crafted with a unique skill set of Neuro-Linguistic Programming and creative hypnotherapy. We have won several awards as “Best of Bellevue” for weight loss and control program.
Call me and find out more, we can set up a free in office consultation meeting.
All the Best,
Connie

Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
As we posted earlier, Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP has offered financial help to hurricane relief victims. We are contributing a portion of our hypnotherapy client session fees for the month of September to the American Red Cross. We got a very nice letter of thanks and we thought we’d share it! To all our clients, thank you for helping us to help. All the Best, Connie
Dear Connie,
I wanted to extend my sincere thanks for your recent contribution to the American Red Cross in support of Hurricane Harvey relief following the catastrophic destruction caused by the storm. You made a tremendous difference for families when they needed you most.
It has been nearly a month since the deadly Hurricane Harvey devastated parts of Texas and Louisiana – flooding homes, submerging roads, making entire neighborhoods unreachable.
But thanks to your support, Connie, the Red Cross and partners were able to launch a significant Hurricane Harvey relief effort, providing safe shelter, food and comfort to families who lost everything. Thank you for being there.
In the last few weeks, the Red Cross and community partners have provided more than 405,000 overnight stays in emergency shelters due to Hurricane Harvey.
The Red Cross has served more than 2.6 million meals and snacks to people in need after the hurricane.
More than 2,900 Red Cross disaster workers and as many as 170 emergency response vehicles are on the ground right now, helping thousands of people affected by this disaster.
The Red Cross has distributed nearly 849,000 relief items like diapers, bug spray, cleaning supplies, and comfort kits that contain deodorant, toothbrushes, toothpaste and other hygiene items in Texas and Louisiana.
Connie, we could not have done any of it without you. It is your trust and your support that fuels our work. Our on the ground response from both Hurricane Harvey and Irma shows the difference that supporters like you make to families in need.
Stay tuned for our one-month report, which will share how donor dollars continue to make an impact to support Hurricane Harvey relief efforts.
I cannot say it enough: Thank you.
Sincerely,
Harvey Johnson
Senior Vice President, Disaster Cycle Services
American Red Cross

Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
Michael and I are happy to share and grow the power of mind by doing hypnosis and NLP, and by teaching. Here’re new training dates from the private career school side of what we do.
Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
I consider myself one lucky person, because I get to pursue my passion-which is hypnosis (a super accelerated learning state) and NLP (a super accelerated hypnosis). NLP has been aptly described as “The Art & Science of Excellence.” Yes!
I have two businesses, rated A+ with the Better Business Bureau. Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP offers client work and hypnosis services in my Bellevue office working one on one with people. We tweak and install new strategies for success of all varieties, and that’s mightily rewarding work. I love helping!
Mindworks NLP is Michael’s and my Washington State Licensed private career school which we operate in the Greater Seattle area. We share the teaching duties as we share these amazing tools, both for those looking to become certified professionals through our school and the Society of NLP® and also for those looking to enhance their own power and control over their lives.
We are pleased to announce our next Seattle area training dates. Space in these live hands-on trainings is limited, to assure our personal attention and verification of student skill sets. In other words, personal guidance and feedback galore, something which was missing in my own original NLP trainings-and I have determined MY students shall have.
Here are our offerings:

We just studied with him this past year in Orlando, FL. We keep our skills current and cutting edge. If you’re really interested in learning and excelllence, then you won’t settle for anything other than “the real deal” trainers. There are only approximately 35 such Licensed Trainers of NLP ® through Bandler’s Society of NLP® in the entirety of the US. In our trainings, we are the only trainers involved, we don’t turn your learning over to lesser skilled assistants, as others do.
We hope to see you in one or more of our upcoming Seattle area NLP and hypnosis trainings.

Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
I was asked to share my expertise in hypnosis by Bellevue College. Number one, by teaching courses there. Yes, I do. (Two courses coming up next month!) In addition, last week they contacted me to be a contributor on their blog. To write something for their readers!
Well, those of you who may follow THIS blog know that writing is “my thing.” I jumped at the opportunity. It also supports my personal goal of enlarging the world’s understanding of this so-misunderstood treasure-trove of power called “hypnosis.”
Here’s what I wrote: Self-Hypnosis: A tool for life success!
Here’s an excerpt:
“Everybody has the ability inside their unconscious mind to create a new world. The one they want! The one that’s joy-filled, successful, happy, free, fun, and all the things people want for themselves. We activate change through this part of our mind. Hypnosis unlocks positive change and unleashes potential. Why not use ALL of your brain for a change?”
I’m excited to teach these brief courses next month. If you’d like to find out more, here are the links to Bellevue College Continuing Ed’s website.
Self Hypnosis for Healthy Eating & Weight Loss from 2/15 – 2/22 (2 Wednesdays)
A Chance to Trance: Discover Hypnosis for Goal Achievement on 2/8 (1 Wednesday)

Michael and I live, eat, and breathe hypnosis! It’s our “bag,” it’s our gig. We love doing it, and we love teaching it, as well. We are offering a FREE WEBINAR event tomorrow evening. Tuesday, June 28th, 7 – 8 pm. It’s in conjunction with our “Discover the Magic of Hypnosis” course.
Join us online! Discover the Magic of hypnosis! (And discover a free bonus if you stay to the end.) Registration link is here:
https://app.webinarjam.net/register/3326/a5fddc6a15
Discover how to really use hypnosis as you master your own self development!
In this mind-opening webinar, you’ll learn:
https://app.webinarjam.net/register/3326/a5fddc6a15
What kind of successes can you expect from our certification training? Here’s the scoop from a couple former students of “Discover the Magic of Hypnosis”:
“Connie and Michael are the best!! They really teach all the important things about hypnosis in a concise and positive way, and give you the tools you need to succeed. They are a pleasure to learn from, and I feel very confident to start my own practice. I can’t thank them enough! Highly recommended!!” – Dawn F., Seattle, WA
“What a grand journey. A mere 4 days, and how very far I have traveled! Studying with Connie and Michael was such a pleasure. Both are fabulous instructors, making learning fun and exciting. And I became a hypnotist! Wow!
Initially just the concept of learning trance induction was overwhelming but, with their combined years of experience and knowledge, technique and practical tips, the Brannans guided me through it all, filling me with confidence along the way. In fact, just one single technique alone made it worth the price of admission for me.
If you have any interest in learning hypnosis, trance induction and accessing the untapped resources of the human mind, Mindworks NLP is definitely the place to be. Once again, many thanks!” – Jon Komatsu, Seattle, WA
Yay, for new hypnotherapists. I say, the more the merrier, and yay for more success, joy, and helping in the world. You might notice a common theme in the comments: confidence. We use hypnosis to teach hypnosis, and installing confidence in our students is always on our agenda. Obviously, we were successful.
Now is the time for hypnosis.
Michael and I are teaching our 4 day live hypnosis training event again, July 7 – 10, 2016, through the school side of our work, Mindworks NLP. It’s always a fabulous experience, with lots of fresh minds opening up to the power of words, unconscious creativity and problem-solving ability. We love to unleash newly minted “Certified Hypnotists” for the betterment of the world, and specifically, the Seattle area.
Hi, Hypnosis Friends and Enthusiasts!
We have an expression in the “biz.” “All hypnosis is self hypnosis.” This is true. It’s a learning state of mind we put ourselves into. It happens naturally all the time. And it can happen by design. That’s our traditional understanding of the words “self hypnosis.”
And there can be triggers for INSTANT hypnosis, like flipping a light switch, from awake to hypnosis. That’s what I install for students at Bellevue College who take my Self Hypnosis for Healthy Eating and Weight Loss course. It starts tomorrow, June 1st.
http://www.campusce.net/BC/course/course.aspx?C=13255&mc=1893&pc=1817
Who wants in? This is an amazing tool.
It’s like the old expression: “Give a man a fish and he has dinner tonight. Teach him HOW to fish, and he has an endless supply of dinners.” Self hypnosis is fishing for personal development!
Join me in this marvelous adventure. I invite you. It’s two evenings wherein we stuff your mind full of new understandings of what is hypnosis, how does the mind work, how do we create change in ourselves, some language of influence, and this instant trigger for trance is installed. You learn to DO self hypnosis. You learn and you play. It’s experiential. Hypnosis happens.
Fun, fun, fun. That’s my opinion and I’m sticking with it.
All the Best,
Connie

Hi, Seattle area Hypnosis Friends!
“Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.” –Maimonides
When someone comes into my office, Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP, I guide them into change. I also like to teach them self-hypnosis. It’s their power to make a better life on an ongoing basis.
http://www.campusce.net/BC/course/course.aspx?C=11562&mc=1893&pc=1817
Here’s a special event to learn self hypnosis inexpensively in a group setting. It’s a two evening event through Bellevue College Continuing Education. Dec 2 & 9. $89 The name of the course is “Building Confidence & Self Esteem Through Self Hypnosis.” Yes, self hypnosis is great for that, AND so much more. You can sign up through Bellevue College at the link above, and begin a world of positive changes.
All the Best,
Connie
More Info: 🙂 Experience hypnosis and learn to do-it-yourself. Connie guides you, teaches you, and helps you install an instant trigger for trance, and learn the power of words and positive intention. More about Connie: www.mindworkshypnosis.net and www.seattlenlptraining.com.
Hi, Hypnosis Friends and Enthusiasts!
Here is an opportunity to get hypnotized and experience that state of being which is calm, quiet, clear-minded, and creative. Here’s a chance to see something useful change in your life. It’s my A Chance to Trance one evening experiential class at Bellevue College on 10/21/15 at 7:00 pm:
http://www.campusce.net/BC/course/course.aspx?C=12634&mc=1893&pc=1817
Hypnosis is an experience I believe everyone in the universe should enjoy as a means to goal achievement. Not only do I teach hypnosis and use it in my business Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP, I use it myself. And do you know what, it works!
People who have heard about hypnosis think it’s limited in it’s uses. FALSE. It can help achieve the proper mindset and body cooperation for any goal. Here’s a personal example:
I had oral surgery yesterday. It was supposedly “a big deal,” with pain killers prescribed and a million rules and do’s and don’t do’s for “post op.” I used self hypnosis for accelerated, perfect healing, and do you know what? Today I feel fine. It took one ibuprofen after the surgery, that’s it. No pain. No swelling. The surgeon was recommending sedation medication for the surgery itself (and told me that was typical for his patients). I said, no thank you. And I didn’t need it. I used self hypnosis to remain calm, and relaxed throughout.
Our minds are more powerful than we use. If you’re ready to learn more about hypnosis and experience that state for yourself, then my event next week is for you. It’s moocho inexpensive. You can sign up through Bellevue College at the link above. Hope to see you there!
All the Best,
Connie

Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
Yesterday evening, Michael and I shared some thoughts and insights into how the mind works and hypnosis as a change tool. We had a lot of fun, it was our first ever Webinar offering online.
It’s cool, and it’s easy for participants, as anyone with internet can join us from their own home or phone. It was a great learning experience for us, as well, as to the technical necessities of this form of online sharing of info.
In the next few weeks, we’ll be sharing snippets of our presentation from last night. Here’s one right now, where I answer the question: “What is hypnosis good for?” My answer: anything that involves the mind. Here’s the video:
Sorry for the uneven sound–we’re still learning the technical side of all this. I hope you can hear my passion and enthusiasm coming through, as well as info. I’m including a text transcript as well:
“Hello! Connie, again! What has hypnosis been used for? Pretty much anything you can imagine. If your mind is involved, hypnosis can be useful for that. It’s been used clinically for so many different things. The big three: weight loss, quit smoking, and anxiety and stress release. Those are the mainstream kind of things that people come to a hypnotist for.
However, it’s possible to do so much more beyond that. We can stop pain. We can stop bleeding. We can help people to have comfort during oral surgery without anesthesia. Surgical procedures without anesthesia. Through the power of the mind. Accelerated healing. There’s a whole field of hypnosis called hypno-birthing. I don’t partake of that, however many people do. And that is all about preparing the person’s mind for comfortable childbirth.
There’s just so many different uses. And I can tell you a little bit more about some of the clients I’ve had in my office. Really, it’s everyday people with everyday issues.
• People that have had relationship breakups and they want to stop obsessing about their old partner.
• People that play golf. They want to be a better golfer, they just want to score better in their game. Any sport, any sport you can name, hypnosis is a way to focus the mind to access a skill set and automate it!
• Any kind of phobias or fears that are inappropriate for life can be shifted. I have seen every phobia under the sun. Fear of overripe bananas. Fear of record stores. Fear of dinosaurs. Just fear of anything you can imagine. Fear of the wind! Imagine how terrifying that would be, living here in the Pacific Northwest. You see a leaf move, and you go into a panic attack. These things are not resourceful. They’re not useful. And the mind can make those changes very easily.
• I’ve worked with artists. I’ve worked with musicians.
• Kids with test anxiety.
• I’ve helped a stroke survivor regain cognitive function.
• I’ve helped people with memory.
• If you’re into the esoteric explorations, I even did past life recall type work with people where we go backwards in time in their imagination and we replicate and recreate wisdom and learnings from prior lives. Whether you believe it’s an actual thing, a past life, or simply a symbolic representation in the mind, either way it has useful information there. So, sometimes in hypnosis, that’s where we go.
What is hypnosis good for? Really, anything and everything! I have worked with kids to senior citizens for everything. If it’s something that you want to be different in your life, hypnosis is a tool that can help you get that communication into the unconscious. Where it has power.
Because, here’s the bottom line: Your unconscious mind is really super agreeable. It will create for you the things you instruct it to do. It is so agreeable, so accommodating, and so creative in making it happen.
The problem that people run into is they think about the things they don’t want in their life. With hypnosis, we pull them out of that thinking and put them into the other side of the coin. As Albert Einstein said: “You can’t solve a problem with the same thinking that created it.” Or maintains it! What do you want? How do you want life to be different? How do you want to feel? What do you want to think? What behaviors do you want to modify? You can change anything about yourself.
This is so underutilized, hypnosis. I believe and feel that, as time goes on, hypnosis is going to gain, and gain, and gain in credibility. And appreciation. And become mainstream. There are going to be as many hypnotists and hypnosis clinics as there are pedicure and fingernail manicure shops. On every corner, practically. Or dry cleaners. Because hypnosis can help anyone do anything. That’s my belief and I’m sticking with it.” — Connie Brannan, CHt. & Licensed Trainer of NLP®
For more information as to the uses of hypnotherapeutic hypnosis, you can check out my FAQ: http://www.mindworkshypnosis.net/faq/. Removing fear, weight loss, quit smoking, stress release, fingernail biting, any behavioral changes, sleep improvement, improved motivation and confidence, enhanced creativity. And more and more and more. You name it, hypnosis helps!
I hope you enjoy learning more about hypnosis on my blog here. We also offer full blown live hypnosis trainings, hands on, face to face experiential courses in Bellevue. How to hypnotize. How to craft language for maximum unconscious power and change. Instant inductions. Silent inductions. Spontaneous hypnosis scripts flowing from your mind and not read from a piece of paper. We have a four day training coming up. July 9 – 12, 2015 is our “Discover the Magic Of Hypnosis” hypnotherapy training. If you’d like to join us, we still have a few seats available.

Transcript/excerpt of Connie Brannan answering a question: “What is Hypnosis” for webinar “Discover the Magic of Hypnosis.” broadcast June 30, 2015.
“Hi, Connie again! And now we’re going to have a brief conversation about what is hypnosis. We are assuming that you are a newcomer to this beautiful, magical, creative process called hypnosis. So, we’re going to take it from square one.
What is hypnosis? We have in our minds a conscious awareness. Awake. Aware. Living our life in the world. What we think. Logic. Reason. Evaluation. Focus. This is a conscious thing, we notice what’s around us. We notice what we can notice, and guess what? It’s a tiny, tiny bit of available information. We can only notice so much.
Hypnosis is an accessing of a different kind of consciousness, a resourceful, creative consciousness! Unconsciousness, which is also called subconscious. What it is: it’s everything else beyond that conscious awareness. You might notice one thing, two things, three things, in a moment. Your unconscious is taking in billions of pieces of information.
It is handling the processes of language. Translation. Understanding sound. The ability to speak and communicate. How to move your mouth. How to form words. Understanding. You don’t have to think about that. It has become automated, unconscious.
Unconscious mind stores your life experience in memory. It’s not a conscious memory, it’s an unconscious memory. It’s total recall. Holographic life experience. The definition of hypnosis: we get the conscious mind to step aside. Get out of our way! You’ve had your shot to solve this thing, now, step aside! When the conscious mind steps aside, it opens up a doorway into this creative, unconscious mind.
Here are some of the aspects of the conscious mind vs. the unconscious mind. Your conscious mind is analytical. Logical. Sequential. One thing at a time. Very, very limited in its focus. And it directs our day to day outcomes. Whereas, the unconscious mind is creative, unlimited and expansive. It is doing so many things, multi-functioning! It handles our feelings, our imagination. Our intuition. Our creativity. Our problem-solving ability.
And in addition to that, it’s running the body. Everything to do with the body and how it functions. Breathing and blood flow! So, now, I’m sitting here and I’m breathing. I wasn’t thinking about breathing a moment ago. And yet, it’s still happening. If I want to, I can consciously adjust my breathing. This is an example. I can breathe faster. I can breathe slower. I can breathe deeper. But if I forget all about it and stop directing it, guess what? I’m still breathing.
Unconscious mind handles digestion, and breathing, and blow flow, and healing and every process inside the body. Renewal of cells. All these things. These are unconscious processes handled by this fabulous, powerful unconscious mind. Gee! What a good thing to have on our side, huh? Talking to the unconscious mind about the things we want. That’s basically hypnosis.
You know, we talk about left brain, right brain. It’s really one mind, and it has different functions. My favorite, obviously, is your creative mind, your artistic mind. Some people say: “What’s more important, creativity or knowledge?” I believe creativity! As well as imagination. Maybe those words are synonymous.
Here’s an image and you can see:
Thinking, reason, linear, analytic logic. Science is on that left side there. Science, medicine, therapies that think “one size fits all,” one problem one solution. That’s not the kind of thinking that we use in hypnosis. Heck, no!
What we know in hypnosis to be true is that everyone is unique. And everybody has the ability, inside their unconscious mind to create a new world. The one they want! The one that’s joy-filled, and successful, and happy, and free, and fun, and all the things people want for themselves. It’s really accessible through this part of our mind.
So, what is hypnosis? There’s lots and lots of different definitions out there. The formal analytical one is: “It’s a bypassing of your critical factor, the conscious mind.” When you bypass, you push it aside, you go around it, you get in that door, you’re talking to the unconscious. That’s unconscious communication. That’s hypnosis!
My own definition: it’s a state of accelerated learning. Because, in this place in your mind you can make changes so fast. You can have new thoughts, new intuitions, new solutions to life’s dilemmas. And it happens at such an incredibly accelerated rate of speed. Unlike other therapies that might say to a person: “It will take months and months of hard work to make a change. Change is struggle. Change is horrendously difficult.” Well, that’s not what we believe in the world of hypnosis. We believe change is easy. And once you get into this state of mind, you have that accelerated learning available to you.
“What is hypnosis?” It’s a focused attention. It’s not sleep. Here we have an interesting word: monoideism. Focusing on a single idea. That is a good definition. However, that name itself just doesn’t sound sexy or anything. It never caught on.
We use the word “hypnosis,” Greek for “sleep.” That’s a huge myth, hypnosis is not sleep. Not in any way, shape, or form. It is a creative mind space.”

Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
Michael and I are offering 4 Power of Mind Workshops next month in the Seattle area, Bellevue, WA to be specific. It’s a great way for people to learn amazing empowerment techniques and ideas at an affordable cost in a tiny chunk of time. One Day!
These are all one-day “taster” seminars offered through the private career school side of my work: http://seattlenlptraining.com/day-seminars/. In the workshops we explain, demo and the students play with NLP, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (the Art & Science of Excellence).
Michael and I are also offering one seminar on Self Hypnosis, which has caught my attention and prompted me to post. Every time I teach self hypnosis at Bellevue College, someone asks me: “Well, how is self hypnosis different from meditation?” I’ve thought of a great answer: hypnosis takes it to the next level, with an added oomph for success. Hypnosis is “meditation on steroids.” And you can quote me! 🙂
Meditation IS a kind of hypnosis, where the goal seems to be to achieve the state of quiet mind and roll around in it–hoping some good things spontaneously generate. And they probably will! What’s different about self hypnosis? Hypnotherapy and self hypnosis use this state of mind targeted for strategic change: GOALS. With self hypnosis, you’re telling your mind to DO something, to create a specific outcome for your life, whether it be healthier habits or a new body shape, or accelerated healing, or becoming multi-lingual quickly, etc. etc. etc. Here the etcs are endless.
Yay, for the brain, and it’s very agreeable nature!
At Bellevue College I teach a snippet of this material, as the time allows there. NOW, Michael and I are teaching this together through our own school, Mindworks NLP, and are offering it to you in an expanded format. An all day event. It’s slated for June 20th. More info is here: http://seattlenlptraining.com/day-seminars/

Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
I consider myself one lucky person, because I get to pursue my passion–which is hypnosis and a high-tech hypnosis called NLP. NLP has been aptly described as “The Art & Science of Excellence.” Yes!
I have two businesses, one is client work and hypnosis services through Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP, in my Bellevue office working one on one with people. We tweak and install new strategies for success of all varieties, and that’s mightily rewarding work. I love helping!
The second business is Michael’s and my Washington State Licensed private career school which we operate in the Greater Seattle area, called Mindworks NLP.

We are pleased to announce our next Seattle area training dates. Space in these live hands on trainings is limited, to assure our personal attention and verification of student skill sets. In other words, personal guidance and feedback galore, something which was missing in my own original NLP trainings–and I have determined MY students shall have.

Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
This morning Linkedin told me that people were congratulating me on an event — my 8 years work anniversary. It’s nice to remember the things I had forgotten to notice. I began my business, Mindworks Hypnosis, in January, 2007. Eight years! Happy Anniversary to me.
When I discovered the helping power and the absolute creative joy of doing NLP, (Neuro Linguistic Programming) and Hypnotherapy, I quit my job as a Bookkeeper/Office Manager, created this business, and I’ve never looked back. Dozens of additional hypnosis and NLP trainings under the belt, three different offices and thousands of clients later, and I love this work more than ever. This has been the best eight years of my life!
I remember my first paying client, she was a girl named Heather who wanted to stop fingernail biting. She had one session with me, and she was successful. She was also my first testimonial, which is still on my website:, http://www.mindworkshypnosis.net:
“I had a manicure last night…I haven’t had a strong urge to bite my nails and I can’t exactly find the words but it is an amazing feeling. Thanks so much, Connie!” –Heather R., Seattle
When I started this job, I got some really bad business advice: To pretend I’m good at only one thing. To market myself as a “specialty.” To say I’m the hypnosis weight loss specialist. Or, I’m the hypnosis quit smoking specialist. I refused then and now to limit the power of what I do. My expertise is in facilitating change in unconscious strategies for behaviors and beliefs and states of mind and body in any realm of activity whatsoever.
In the eight years, I’ve successfully helped an amazing variety of clients, from weight loss, quit smoking, ending fear and anxieties, all the way to working with pro and Olympic athletes, clients with addictions (drugs, alcohol, gambling, sugar, and etc.). Helping kids with study skills, confidence, and self esteem, helping with physical and accelerated healing, helping stroke survivors with mental function, helping erase blocks to business success, improved sleeping, improved memory, improved intimacy, and so on. As we say at Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP, if the mind is involved in the activity (which is EVERYTHING), then hypnosis helps.
Lots of people in life are looking to “find their passion.” The thing they love doing and are good at, which utilizes and highlights their strengths. The thing that they would choose above all other careers. The thing that makes them smile in the morning, excited and happy to be going to work. I found mine, and this is it!
All the Best,
Connie
Hi, Hypnosis Friends & Enthusiasts!
The work I do and teach in the Seattle area is hypnosis and NLP, Neuro Linguistic Programming — amazing methodologies for personal development and goal getting, goal achievement. Hypnosis and NLP are applicable and wonderful for so many varieties of change — from weight management to phobia fixes, to behavioral changes such as quit smoking and stop fingernail biting, to sports enhancement to improving relationships and communications, and pretty much any activity where your brain is involved. (ALL!)
In the realm of that last category, relationships and communications, I am offering a new course at Bellevue College this winter quarter. It’s called: NLP for Dating and Relating. NLP has been called “hypnosis on steroids.”
http://www.campusce.net/BC/course/course.aspx?C=13808&pc=1817&mc=1893&sc=
Here’s the course description for NLP for Dating and Relating:
Are you interested in dating or improving relationships with those around you? Effective communication can improve any relationship! You will learn how to build rapport and connect with people in the best way possible, both socially and in business contexts. Create states of mind and body in yourself (such as confidence and joy) that lead to effective communications. NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) is a methodology of effective communications, both on the conscious and unconscious level. Connie Brannan is a Licensed Trainer of NLP ®.
NLP for Dating and Relating
Item: W9509 Connie Brannan
7:00 PM – 9:00 PM North Campus Room: V1021
Sessions: 1 W Address: 14673 NE 29th Place Bellevue, WA 98007
3/18/2015 – 3/18/2015 Fee: $49.00
What is NLP? I talk about that here:
The course, a one night, 2-hour adventure, is all about building new states in ourselves that enhance communications, confidence, ease, flow of words, sharp-minded, humor, and so on. It’s also about understanding rapport (positive connections between people) and how to facilitate rapport.–PHYSICALLY. And verbally. It’s fun, cool, stuff. And super powerful.
My goal for the course is that people should walk out the door after the class feeling more empowered and positive, with tools to use for improved communications. I’d love for you to join me!
The Bellevue College info and sign up link is here. http://www.campusce.net/BC/course/course.aspx?C=13808&pc=1817&mc=1893&sc=
All the Best,
Connie
Michael joins me in wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving. Wishing you all a wonderful holiday season rich with health, joy, and success of all varieties.
All the Best,
Connie
Hi, Hypno-Friends!
It’s a landmark. 🙂 Five years!! It’s been five years this month that I’ve been sharing my thoughts, insights, and passion for hypnosis and NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) and the power of the mind here on this blog. I’ve shared articles I’ve written, stories, client successes, videos I’ve created, event notices, musings, and more. All original content. My thoughts, my voice, my stories.
I hope you’ve enjoyed reading, watching, learning, and thinking about the things that I have shared here. I love what I do, and I love when someone realizes “yes, I can” and creates a better life. Empowerment, that’s hypnosis. Thanks for joining me on this ride into the power of personal change! If you’re new to my blog, I invite you to check out the full archive! It’s located on the upper right column, midway down. “Archives.” Five years worth of reading pleasure.
To celebrate this landmark, I’ll be pulling out some vintage articles and stories from my blog that I’ve written and share them again. Here’s one of my earliest posts from October 2009.
It’s cold and flu season (but not for me!)
Hi, guys! Who watches television? (Raising my own hand, but only half way.) 🙂 I hardly watch at all any more, because the quality of “what’s on” is going down, down, down, and my time for leisure is going down as well. That’s a good thing, but that’s also another topic. This one is:
Dramatic pause. Negative suggestions.
Watching TV this past week, I can’t help but notice the BOMBARDMENT of ads right now, commercials for cold & flu medicines and paraphernalia. Here’s the message: “It’s cold and flu season.” and that means “You’re going to get sick., you can expect to get sick.” I also notice that the stores are stocking the aisles with cold and flu medicines and products–prominent and in-your-face, on the end caps and special displays, with alarming banners warning that cold and flu season is here! Same message: “It’s time for you to get sick now! You’re going to get sick now.” It’s not a warning, per se, it’s a directive! It’s a negative suggestion. And our minds seem quite willing to embrace it without question!
Michael has a story he likes. He was in a work training with a woman. She told this story: She knew that every year she would have one bout of illness per cold and flu season, one only. The reason she’d only have one was because she’d prepare for it, and take massive doses of vitamins. She knew that she’d only get sick once! Her vitamins would protect her from further illness! And yes, it did transpire that she’d only get sick once per winter/season. BUT…one winter she got so busy and forgot to prepare with her vitamins, didn’t think about it at all. Guess what? She didn’t get sick that winter. Not once. Not at all. She forgot to get sick!!
Here’s a personal story about my personal experiences. This is NOT medical advice, because…I’m not medical. I’m a hypnotist. And here’s one positive side effect I enjoy from my hypnosis. Your mileage may vary.
I don’t get sick, either. Ever. Because I’ve decided not to. I USED to get sick, just like everyone else. Two major colds a year. At LEAST two. Until I discovered hypnosis and how the mind processes ideas and suggestions. Three years, (as of this writing, October 2009) and I haven’t been sick. Not a sniffle. I did have food poisoning for one day (some bad shrimp on a Vegas buffet), but it ended quite quickly. I don’t get sick because my unconscious mind rejects the idea, and does what it needs to do to make sure I stay well–strengthening my immune system, or whatever it wants to do. I can happily trust my unconscious to keep me well, and ignore those nitty gritty details as well. I don’t care how. I just know it’s in place. Wellness. I can hang around sick people, avoid hand sanitizer, ignore those commercials and product displays, no flu shot for me, and stay well. Three years and counting…
Hypnosis is incredibly powerful. And our understanding is just a miniscule slice of that giant cake. There’s so much more to know and learn. The unconscious mind knows how to keep us healthy. I talk to the mind in ways it likes, to do just that!
What do you suppose would happen if you decided to stay well this winter?
Warm Regards,
Connie

Hi, Hypno-Friends!
I’m excited to announce that I have been chosen to be a featured presenter at the Oregon Hypnotherapy Association’s spring educational conference this month. I’m giving a talk on the topic of aversion therapy—that’s the art of using hypnosis to attach “a big fat no!” to the habits and behaviors that people want to stop doing. That runs the gamut of things like stopping smoking, drinking, overeating, fingernail biting, procrastination, and more.
In the field of hypnosis, there’s harmful negative aversion (suggesting illness and death–which I would NEVER do to a client), and there’s positive aversion. The “aversion” aspect of any work I do is all positive aversion. Here’s more about my talk for those interested in the nitty gritty of hypnotherapy, who may read my blog.
The Power of Positive Aversion
Connie Brannan, CHt., Neuro-Linguistic Hypnotherapist and Licensed Trainer of NLP®
What would you never do? “I’d never kill anyone.” Sure, you would. If the situation was such that the killing became an imperative and appropriate response. That’s not a felt response, that’s an intellectual response. What makes your skin crawl? What is it that you would REALLY never do, such that the thought of it is so repellant and disgusting and fearful to you that it turns your stomach and your brain says about it: “That’s a big fat NO!” Eat live worms? Kiss your grandmother? Jump out of an airplane for fun?
Aversion in hypnotherapy is the art of attaching a “big fat NO” to an unwanted behavior such as smoking or eating sweets, in the mind AND the body. In this talk, I demonstrate a potent NLP technique to achieve this.
Finding and attaching the most potent multi-sensual aversion connection is very much an art form. Hypnotherapy itself is a creative art, and the more you successfully tailor ideas and associations for the person in front of you and what moves them, the more successful results you will achieve for them. Everybody is different, and their “big fat nos” are different.
In this talk we discuss aversion. Unwise, harmful aversion (you’re going to die a horrible corrosive death with illness, pain and suffering if you continue the behavior) vs. creative positive aversion. For a long time I avoided aversion suggestions altogether, because it seemed to me to be only negative and hurtful. It doesn’t have to be. Also in this talk we discuss how useful aversion is in a propulsion system to change, combined with the positive attraction of desired outcome.

The UN declares, and of course I agree: “The pursuit of happiness is a fundamental human goal.” Yesterday, the world celebrated happy, with the 2014 International Day of Happiness. If you want to hear some uber-catchy happy music and see some happy faces and bodies dancing to it, look on Youtube.com under the search term hashtag happy, #HAPPY.
Here’s one:
I think we should do more of that. 🙂 I think happiness is too big to contain within a single calendar day, and should be welcomed and celebrated and lived every day. What kind of a world would it be if people were HAPPY every day? A different world, a better world. Because…
In the words of my favorite teacher, Dr. Richard Bandler: “Good feelings, good decisions. Bad feelings, bad decisions.” My work is all about good feelings, and making them unconsciously automated. That’s hypnosis and NLP. When you feel good, you think differently, and you act differently in ways that are useful.

Here’s another musing on hypnosis and the nature of personal changes.
I was thinking about my dad this morning. He was very handy around the house, and could fix anything. He was a Lowes kind of guy–loved going in those home improvement and hardware type stores. As I was brushing my teeth this morning and staring at the water running in the sink, a vision from my childhood popped into my brain.
I could see my dad, lying on the bathroom floor with a “snake” type cable doing things to clear obstructions in the drain and pipes in the bathtub and sink. He fixed it! My dad was a wonderful problem solver.
Last week I had poured Draino in my own bathroom sink, and today I noticed that yes, the drain is running faster. And that reminded me of hypnosis.
Everything is a hypnotic metaphor. Everything.
My clients always want to know this: how fast? How long will it take to achieve x change with hypnosis? It absolutely varies. Sometimes it’s instant! Like my dad and his Roto-Rooter type pipe snake clearing a clog instantly. The brain says: “Oh, that blockage is unnecessary! Goodbye!”
Sometimes change needs to work it’s way through the mind and body and habits, like Draino’s chemical reactions through pipes. You pour it in and you let it sit, and yet it’s working. Dissolving those clogs over time. Hypnotic suggestions keep “workin’ it” over time, as well.
Brain and drain. Very similar words. Mere coincidence? 🙂 Bottom line, hypnosis is absolutely wonderful to flush troubles out of your life. The evidence is here: http://www.mindworkshypnosis.net.

Imagine yourself in your “skinny jeans.” Hear the compliments of your family and friends. Like what you see when you look in the mirror! Feel the energy! The hypnosis skills taught in this workshop can help you unleash the infinite power within you to achieve all this! You’ll learn to reprogram your own mind to act in ways you desire: healthy choices, healthy eating, motivation to exercise. It won’t be a struggle, and it’s not a “diet,” it’s simply doing what you want to do. Your mind and your body will be working together–for your health!
If your New Year’s resolutions are weakening, this course is your pump up of power! I do hope you’ll join me. This course is lively and fun and participatory. That means, you get to experience hypnosis as well as learn more about the power of your mind.
Warm Regards,
Connie

GREAT AMERICAN SMOKEOUT GROUP HYPNOSIS SESSION OFFERED BY MINDWORKS HYPNOSIS
November 21, 7-9 pm, Bellevue, WA.
Experience the power of hypnosis to help you focus your mind and achieve your goal of becoming smoke-free.
Written by guest blogger, Michael Brannan. 🙂
Did you know that hypnosis is described by a prominent scientific journal as: “The most effective way of giving up smoking” (New Scientist, issue #1845, October 31, 1992, p 6). This was the conclusion reached after reviewing some 600 studies totaling nearly 72,000 people.
To find the most effective way to give up smoking, researchers carried out a meta-analysis, statistically combining the results of more than 600 smoking cessation studies covering almost 72,000 people from across the globe. By combining the results from so many separate studies, the meta-analysis enables the real effectiveness of each technique to be seen. The results are clear: the use of clinical hypnosis for smoking cessation is the most effective approach to becoming smoke-free in existence! And, one of the least expensive!
The results are in. According to the extensive research, here are the relative
effectiveness of various therapies:
Nicotine Replacement Therapy/Patches and gum, 7%
Will power alone (“cold turkey”), 6 – 11%
Herbal remedies, Lozenges, Nasal sprays, 2 – 5%
Herbal cigarettes, Inhalers, 2 – 5%
Prescription drugs, 20%
Acupuncture, 24%
HYPNOSIS!, 60%
We’re Connie and Michael Brannan, owners and operators of Mindworks Hypnosis, and we’ve been helping people end the smoking habit for over 7 years. We use a unique and powerful blend of hypnosis and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) to stop smoking dead in it’s tracks.
You may not have heard of NLP, but it is the most advanced and powerful form of hypnosis there is. It has been called “hypnosis on steroids.” Knowing that hypnosis is already the most effective way to stop smoking, just imagine your results when you put it on steroids! Cool, huh?
You can quit, and we can help using this powerful, proven and safe method. And, unlike drugs, hypnosis has no negative side effects. It does, of course, have positive side effects–you’ll start feeling happy, energized, joyous, much better than you have in a long, long time. Call us and get on the path to healthy now: 425-564-8608.
Warm Regards,
Michael
