**What is Hypnotherapy?**

Hypnotherapy is a type of therapy that uses the power of suggestion to encourage positive change. During a hypnotherapy session, we guide you to a relaxed and focused state – often referred to as a trance state – where you’re more open to suggestion. While in this state, we create words, stories, imagery to stimulate the changes you desire, guide you through visualization exercises and provide positive suggestions aimed at promoting your personal development and specific goals.

**What is NLP?**

NLP stands for Neuro-Linguistic Programming, a method of conversational hypnosis that involves understanding how our minds work, how we interact with the world, and how we can better control our thoughts and behaviors and emotional responses. NLP techniques are designed to help individuals adopt new, more beneficial patterns of thought and behavior.

**The Power of Hypnotherapy and NLP for Personal Development**

When combined, hypnotherapy and NLP create a powerful framework for personal development. We can help you break free from limiting beliefs, boost your self-esteem, enhance your communication skills, and even conquer fears or phobias.

By accessing the subconscious mind, these techniques can help you discover the internal resources you need to overcome obstacles and achieve your goals. Whether you’re aiming for career advancement, improved relationships, or personal satisfaction, these tools provide a roadmap to success. And, this all happens far faster than other therapies. Minutes. Not months or years.

**Why Consider Hypnotherapy and NLP Sessions?**

1. **Break Negative Patterns:** Many people get trapped in negative cycles of thinking and behaving. Hypnotherapy and NLP can help you break these patterns and replace them with more positive, productive ones.

2. **Boost Confidence:** By replacing self-doubt with self-belief, these techniques can significantly enhance your self-esteem and confidence, enabling you to take on new challenges with a positive mindset.

3. **Improve Communication:** NLP techniques help improve how you and others communicate, leading to more effective, empathetic communication in both your personal and professional life.

4. **Overcome Fears and Phobias:** Whether it’s a fear of public speaking, heights, or something else entirely, hypnotherapy and NLP can help you overcome these fears, opening up new opportunities and experiences.

Hypnotherapy and NLP are powerful tools to unlock your potential and lead you towards a more fulfilling life.

Skill Beyond CDs – Best Greater Seattle Hypnotherapy & NLP

Written by Connie April 17, 2015December 29, 2023

Hi, Seattle Hypnosis Friends!

I’ve written another article for my website called “Skill Beyond CDs.” I’m sharing it here as well. 🙂 I’ve explained this idea one on one in my hypnosis & NLP consultations, however, perhaps it’s time to share it bigger.

A prospective client came in for her consultation yesterday. In our Q&A, she asked me: “Are you going to give me an audio CD of our session that I have to listen to?” I said, “No way! I don’t do that, because you don’t need to do that.” She heaved a giant sigh of relief, a prior hypnotist had tortured her in that way. I explained more: “When this work is done well, change is automated. That means it sticks and grows even more powerful on its own. Today, and tomorrow. Without you needing to listen to a CD.”

The fact is, hypnosis is a self-regulated profession. In the Seattle area, and in Washington State, there are no certification requirements, beyond a simple registration process. Anyone can do this work, trained or untrained, skilled or unskilled, creatively imaginative or reading from a script book. Every hypnotist has chosen and pursued a different level of training, and has achieved a different skill set, as well as coming to the game with a different level of native intelligence and creativity.

Every hypnotist has a different mindset as well, as to the power of these tools for personal and positive change. Some hypnotists are believers, and some are doubters.

Doubters give CDs. Giving a client a CD recording of the session gives its own NEGATIVE and damaging hypnotic message: our work isn’t enough to be successful. Wow, what a stupid thing to communicate to a client–creating an expectation that change is difficult. Yes, our work is enough to be successful! IF the skill set is there in the first place to create and install ongoing change rapidly.

This work is all about utilizing the unconscious mind to make change. Unconscious means outside of conscious awareness. Thinking and remembering to make time to listen to an audio recording of your session involves your conscious mind. When the conscious mind is involved, this work is less powerful and less successful. Good hypnosis requires no “homework.”

A somewhat rude novice hypnotist asked me one day: “If you’re not going to make CDs, how are YOU going to compete?” The answer is (without giving away the unique processes I have created to help people change), by creating more success for clients WITHOUT making them listen to a CD. It wouldn’t have been polite to say: “Because I’m better and smarter than you at this work and I’ve created something different that’s even more powerful.”

Here’s a story I like to tell to illustrate these ideas from my own personal experience. I used to have an extreme spider phobia. In addition to being deathly afraid of spiders, I was constantly worried about seeing one and was always on the lookout. This pattern lasted in me for over 30 years!

Guess what? I didn’t have to do anything or listen to a CD to keep that fear in place. It’s just who I was and how I responded in the world. It was an unconscious strategy in my mind. Not a useful one. With NLP, that strategy became changed in me in a one event new learning. I was changed. Effective immediately, there was no fear of spiders. It’s been 9 years now, and I’ve never had to “listen to a CD” to keep that change. It’s just who I am and how I respond in the world. With calm where fear used to be. That’s effective change. That’s what I strive for in my office. Automated change that does not involve your conscious mind expending energy where it’s not needed.

So my advice, toss the session CDs and find a hypnotist actually skilled enough to help you face to face!

All the Best,
Connie

Hypnosis, NLP

What is NLP? It’s Hypnosis on Steroids.

Written by Connie June 12, 2012June 7, 2013

Does hypnosis work? Does NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) work? Absolutely, Yes!! The evidence mounts. Here is a video testimonial from Julia of Seattle, filmed today at the Mindworks Hypnosis offices. Julia is another impressed client, who is marveling at the “profound differences in her life” via a process that feels so “comfortable.” Yes, that’s NLP and hypnosis done well. Julia had a single Neuro Linguistic Hypnotherapy session prior to this report.

You can find out for yourself. Call us! Connie & Michael (425) 564-8608. Here comes my favorite expression again!! 🙂 “The proof is in the pudding, and you and your success is the pudding.” Julia is enjoying hers.

Warm Regards,
Connie
