Hi, Seattle Hypnosis Friends!
I got a personal note from a client the other day, so happy with her success after two sessions with me, one on phobia release and one on sugar issues. She wrote:
“I really feel like a whole new person since you worked your magic.” — Jennifer B., Issaquah, WA
She also was so sincerely happy with my work she shared it on a public forum. YELP, a third party review site. She gave Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP a 5-star rating and a wrote a review:
“Connie works miracles! After a single session, my lifelong spider phobia was resolved. It was a simple painless process. I can now remove them without freaking out and running for help. I never thought it possible! She also was able to switch off my sweet tooth in one session. I don’t want sweets anymore and am down 10 lbs. I would recommend Connie to everyone!” – Jennifer B., Issaquah, WA
I love happy clients. As I tell them off the get go, I want success for them. It’s a win, win. If they win (get their goals), I win. And I like winning. Jennifer down 10 pounds is wonderful.
What would you like to change in your life? What would it be like if there were someone in the Seattle area who could help you do it because they have the tool kit and experience and creativity to help? I’ve got all of the above. Find out more anytime. I do offer a free in office consultation.
All the Best,

Is it time to quit smoking? We help.
My office cabinet is filled with discarded packages of cigarettes from client after client. They quit smoking effective immediately to the point that they hand me their cigarettes (and chewing tobacco) right there during a session and announce: “I’m done!” Sometimes they hand them to me. Sometimes they want to crush them and throw them into my garbage can. It’s all good. One client wanted to and DID run over them with her vehicle in the parking lot.
I keep these discarded packages of cigarettes of all brands around for testing purposes, to verify that the person in front of me is done smoking…that ALL temptation or desire to smoke is gone.
All the Best,

This is not your “boo-hoo into a kleenex” type of changework. I get clients who come in after YEARS (some DECADES) of counseling. It has had the effect of wrapping them tighter into their problems. Solved nothing.
They come to me, and with my tool kit of NLP and custom creative hypnotherapy, change is immediate and powerful. They’re stunned. Because they’ve been hoodwinked into believing change is slow and laborious. False! Change is easy. With the right tools. Discover what works, if you really want positive and immediate change in your life and habits. Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP.
In this brief video above, I share excerpts of a happy NLP client testimonial. Here is the full text:
“I was very hesitant to seek help or counseling, for all of my life, because I didn’t want to talk about my problems. I know what my problems are. I just wanted to fix them.
And then I found Connie. And after one session I felt remarkably better. Like a completely different person. Connie is amazing! I trust her and I feel like she is somewhat of a kindred spirit.
Don’t think twice. Trust your instincts. Come and see Connie. She’s amazing. Truly, truly amazing.” — Kerry D., Seattle, WA.
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!

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

Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
I’m sharing a video I’ve made regarding recent client, Jennifer, of Seattle, and her success with Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP. Charming photos of one happy lady in London after kicking fear of flying.
You go, girl. The world is your oyster. Where to, next? 🙂

Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
I love it when my clients let me know how they’re doing. It makes my day to get a happy email telling me how success and a better life is unfolding after our Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and hypnotherapy work.
Jennifer H., of the Greater Seattle area, wrote to me and shared her joy after kicking fear of flying. After 17 years of allowing fear to stop her from getting on a plane, she successfully flew to Europe.
In her words: “I did it!”
Goodbye, flight anxiety. It’s not a thing for her, anymore. The world is her oyster. Now. Jennifer can experience the joys of connection and travel, and share those adventures with her kids as well. Makes me happy! This is why I love my work.
People think phobias and fears are such a big deal. And so they are, to the sufferer. Unless you find the right tools to remove them. 🙂 To a skilled NLP hypnotist, it’s relatively easy to remove a phobia. I had a spider phobia for decades, myself. I don’t have it, anymore. I couldn’t care less about spiders, they’re not on the radar, and take up none of my mental energy.
Jennifer’s crippling fear of flying is gone now. It’s my hope for her that her mind now expands to consider, look how I overcame this thing. I must be powerful, and I didn’t even know it. I wonder what else I can control in my life. (Lots, Jennifer!)
If you’d like to learn more about what this is all about, this Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) work, I’m happy to explain. It’s a fascinating, interactive, open-eyed conversational hypnosis. And, in the hands of a smart and creative person, it works! To help you get from A, to B. Any A, any B. For Jennifer, it was from Seattle to London.
All the Best,
Connie

Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
A recent Seattle area client came to Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP to remove flight anxiety. This anxiety was installed in her 18 years ago and had remained since then. She was experiencing all manner of symptoms of fear around flying: anxiety, physical tension, feeling hot, impaired breathing, catastrophic thinking, and so on. It was triggered by crowded airports, TSA security checkpoints, walking down the jetway, and the very experience of flying itself. She had to resort to pharmaceutical drugs in order to be able to get on an airplane and fly.
Unnecessary fear. Not good. Not useful. Not fun.
What would it be like if it were different? And what would she prefer if anxiety were gone? This is the question I posed to Jennifer G. of Sammamish, WA. She had one two-hour session of Neuro-Linguistic Hypnotherapy. We created her new Designer Feeling ® for flying, a blend of calm, happy, free and peaceful. We removed anxiety, and did the work to automate this new feeling in its place. Goodbye, flight phobia. 🙂 Plus we gave her a secret weapon to take with her on her upcoming trip, and any future flights. An NLP instant trigger that she controls to bring this new calm and happy feeling on demand.
Success!
Here’s her report, after our one session:
“I just wanted to touch base with you and let you know that I had a wonderful trip to South Africa. My anxiety was lessened immensely and I was able to prepare for my trip without any pre-trip anxiety. I had no anxiety on the short leg of my trip, and just a little on the 15 hour flight, which, I think anyone would get a little anxious on a 15 hour flight. Working with you was a rewarding experience and I’m so glad that I chose this option! Thanks!” — Jennifer G, Sammamish, WA.
Yay, Jennifer. If she ever wanted to erase ALL remnants of anxiety from any future long flights, we could do that as well. Typically, I work with people 2 to 4 sessions for any given desired success. This was her result after just one session! Impressive!
Skilled NLP is a real tool helping real people to achieve real results. Find out more anytime. I do offer a free in office consultation meeting.

Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
Words are my work tool. Words are power. Words move us and matter. I was thinking the other day about the phrase “Wishful Thinking.” It has a negative connotation. If we’re dreaming about something we’d like someday that we don’t figure will manifest, we say: “Oh, that’s just wishful thinking.” We don’t expect success. We don’t work for success. And we don’t get success.
Hypnosis and NLP are absolutely NOT “wishful thinking” like that. You know what they are? WISH-FULFILL THINKING. Wish fulfill. As in, get what you’re wishing for. People are so much more powerful to create success in their lives than they know. I know. People are powerful, and when the mind is directed via focused positively-directed wish-fulfill thinking, success happens.
We do tend to get what we expect. Expectation colors all, and reveals itself in what we do, how we act in the world. Wishful thinking expects failure. So failure happens. Wish-fulfill thinking expects success. Success happens. Henry Ford is famous for expressing this same idea: “If you think you can or you think you can’t, you’re right!”
How does this work? The mind moves in the direction of its dominant thoughts, so when an outcome (such as successful weight loss, habit change around smoking, calmness instead of anxiety, etc.) becomes dominant, that’s what we do. And how we live. That’s what we create for ourselves in our lives.
Hypnosis and NLP Neuro Linguistic Programming are all about directing the mind to focus on what we want, not what we don’t want. And we train the mind to have an expectation of success. “Dream wantonly, and expect to succeed.” This is wish-fullfill thinking.
As always, the proof is in the pudding. Check out my client reports. Directing your mind to success (in this UNconscious realm, outside of conscious interference, back behind the curtain in the mind as it were) works to create success. Any success.
I offer private client sessions to help you direct your mind and create life successes. Find out more in my free in person consultation. I’m happy to meet with you. I love to chat about what I do and how the mind works. That’s why I named my business “Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP.” Dump the wishful thinking, and find your power with unconscious wish-fulfill thinking.
All the Best,
Connie

Hi, Hypnosis Curious!
There’s lots of misunderstandings about hypnosis and hypnotherapy floating around in the world, to the point that different arts use the tool but call it something else. “Guided Meditation.” “Visualization.” “Dream Sculpting.” and so on. People fear the name Hypnosis, thinking it’s something dark and weird. Nope! So wrong.
Here’s what it is: It’s an effective tool to actuate the best of us. The best in us. How? By communicating with the unconscious mind, where our power lies. And it’s an amazing, wonderful connection. Here’s what I say!
“Your unconscious mind is pure, positive energy 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It will do anything for you, be creative, solve anything, find new choices, actuate healing, make success of all varieties. NLP and hypnosis are simply methodologies for inserting precise and clear instructions into the unconscious mind for these goals.” — Connie Brannan, CHt., Licensed Trainer of NLP ®
And believe me, now is a time when bringing out our best really matters. The world is in transition (some of us would say going to h-e-double-toothpicks in a handcart). We need the best in ourselves. And it’s there and accessible via hypnosis! And NLP, even more so. NLP is a super accelerated hypnosis.
As always, the proof is in the pudding, successes and goals realized through skilled hypnosis, like the 200+ success stories on my website. Find out more anytime. I offer private sessions and one on one customized services utilizing the art of hypnosis and NLP.
All the Best,
Connie

Hi, Seattle area Hypnosis Friends!
Here is another short, sweet, and to the point testimonial for Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP. I helped this man with fear of heights.
He reports:
“I stood on a ledge at least 1000-1500 feet above the river and looked down to study a rapid without any fear. I love this stuff. Thanks.” – Dan M., Seattle, WA.
Yay, Dan! Here’s to overcoming fears and living a more adventurous life.
What people don’t realize (until they do) is that fear is a choice. An UNconscious choice. A pattern embedded into the unconscious mind. It’s not something we can alleviate with thinking via the conscious analytical mind. We need to work within the unconscious to install a new choice. And, yes we can! Calm, confidence, freedom, a sense of adventure.
NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) and hypnotherapy, it’s all about new UNconscious choices. In our work together, called Designer Feelings®, you consciously (awake and aware) indicate your new choices, and we install them via UNconscious communications. That’s our skillset at Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP.
If you’re battling fear, stop it! Call us for a free consultation and learn how you can improve your life quicker than you imagine. We help with any fears at all, fear of flying, fear of public speaking, fear of spiders, fear of small tight spaces, fear of open spaces, fear of the wind, fear of dinosaurs, you name it. It’s all unnecessary, and we can help you to kick it out of your life. Call us: 425-564-8608.
All the Best,
Connie

Hi, Greater Seattle Hypnosis friends!
Hypnosis is a way to tap into that creative problem solving imagination that we all have.
Henry Ford, the automaker, said something I know is true: “If you think you can, or you think you can’t…you’re right!” Yes! Change happens in the mind before it can happen in the world, your habits, your body, your success. There’s another expression I like, “keep your eyes on the prize.” You have to know where you want to go in order to get there.
People come into my Bellevue hypnosis clinic and as part of our work, we engage in a one on one live question and answer period where we find and clarify desired goals. And figure out how we will measure change. And develop a clear vision of what success looks like, feels like, sounds like, and would afford to a person’s whole lifestyle. This is super important, and happens before we even begin the formal hypnosis and Neuro Linguistic Processing change work.
In my office we imagine success. Successfully. We dream big! And thus, pave the way to create it. Albert would be proud.
Find out more anytime about this amazing thing called hypnosis. I do offer a free consult about how your mind works and how I work and what your mind is capable of creating. It’s more power than your currently enjoy.
All the Best,
Connie

Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
Michael and I just finished teaching our 4 day live hypnosis training event, through the school side of our work, Mindworks NLP. It was a fabulous experience, with lots of fresh minds opened up to the power of words, unconscious creativity and problem-solving ability. We’ve unleashed newly minted “Certified Hypnotists” for the betterment of the world, and specifically, the Seattle area.
Two of our recent hypnosis students sent us testimonials to our teaching this week. Thought we’d share! 🙂
“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.
If you’re ever of a mind to learn these amazing methodologies of change, hypnosis & NLP, we offer that in addition to one-on-one private sessions of clinical Neuro-Lingustic Hypnotherapy. Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP is located in Bellevue, WA. Call us!
All the Best,
Connie
Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
Here’s another testimonial to the work we do at Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP. Jennifer G, of Federal Way, WA was a recent client of mine. She posted a review of my services this week on YELP business reviews. I’m so pleased with her success that I’m sharing her comments here. She wrote:
“I wish I had known about Connie years ago. I wish I had known that I could be a non-smoker so painlessly and quickly. After 30 + years of addiction it’s gone – And I did not suffer in the process!
No urges, no cravings, no overeating to compensate. I have tried to quit 3 times in the past decade and failed each time – until I went to Connie. I am in awe of the freedom from smoking and how easy Connie made it for me.
This was so worth it! I am excited to work with Connie on my fear of flying next!” — Jennifer G, Federal Way, WA.
Do you want change? Do you think you can’t get there by yourself? Help is here! Call us: 425-564-8608.
All the Best,
Connie
Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
Who loves Seattle? I do. As I have my entire life. I was born here! 🙂 I lived in other places for awhile, but they just didn’t cut it. Nowhere is as beautiful as Seattle, which is why I chose to come home to the Seattle area for my hypnosis business. Take a look at this view (high definition option is best, under settings):
Here’s a view of the city one bright afternoon as seen from the Space Needle – another thing I love . A panoramic spin. This puts me into trance! Very hypnotic.
In our Neuro-Linguistic Hypnotherapy work, we customize new feelings for clients such that good feelings take over and the negative or unwanted feelings leave. We capture those feelings from life experience. As I watch this video, I’ve got a great feeling: gratitude. I think I’ll capture it. 🙂 So lucky to live in the most gorgeous place on earth.
All the Best,
Connie
Hi, Seattle lovers everywhere!
Check out this hypnotic time-lapse video I’ve created. It’s a typical Seattle May day…murky, gray, overcast, dark. At first. Then, miraculously, things shift. The clouds blow away, and are replaced with dazzling blue skies and brilliant sunshine. What a beautiful Seattle day. Hypnotic!
And what a great metaphor. This is the essence of hypnosis and hypnotherapy and NLP. Change. And, as this video shows, change is easy! Troubles and problems and old habits can “blow away” as though they never even existed. We don’t need ’em, we can get rid of them. Easily! That’s the secret and unknown part. Hypnosis is the tool to make it happen.
Hypnosis and NLP are really user guides for the mind.
I hope you enjoy this amazing video. I love it, if I do say so myself. These scenes are three different views of the same day, from atop our own Space Needle – the heart of Seattle. My favorite part is when the shadow of the Space Needle moves and elongates across the city. We are so privileged to live in the Greater Seattle area, there’s nowhere as beautiful on earth.
All the Best,
Connie

Hi, again, Hypno Friends!
Here’s a photo of my hypnosis chair, complete with spiral pillow. I get a kick out of that pillow every time I see it! 🙂 It’s an “old-time hypnosis” symbol. To me, it’s fun. I call it: Hypno-wheel. So, this is the Hypno-wheel Pillow, sitting on the Trance Chair, my leather recliner, in my hypnotherapy office in Bellevue. It’s waiting for you! You don’t actually sit ON the pillow, I move it when we get down to business, it’s really for “ambiance!” The symbol also means “infinity.”
And that makes great sense to me…as hypnosis is an ancient art. In the time of the Egytians, they had healing “sleep temples” where hypnosis was practiced. Hypnosis and healing, that connection has long been known. Hypnosis has been written about by well-known psychologists of the 1800’s, including William James. In India in the 19th century, hypnosis was used on the battlefield to help with necessary amputations–without anesthesia, without pain.
Hypnosis is not new. But, there’s a growing awareness and acceptance in the world for hypnosis as a mainstream healing art and science, which I find wonderful. Holly-weird has done it’s best to create fear and a negative mystique surrounding hypnosis, but the truth has a way of coming out. And the truth about hypnosis is wonderful. What it can do for a person, and the pleasant nature of the experience itself.
Here are some actual quotations from my clients upon emerging from trance and commenting on the experience: “That was delightful.” (Gene, Mercer Island) “Wow!!” (Monica, Bellevue, and dozens and dozens of others–this is the most common response) “Better than sex.” (Andy, Seattle) “I loved it!” (Michael, Bellevue) “That was amazing!” (Jennifer, Kirkland)… Some people are speechless, but the grateful smiles on their faces speak volumes.
When you’re in trance, in hypnosis, you are connecting to the best part of yourself. That part of you that wants success and fulfillment and thriving and good feelings! The part of you that can make those things reality.
So, what does trance feel like? In general, and for me personally, a sense of well-being permeates trance, and stress packs its bags. People do experience it differently. To some, it’s very very similar to their natural waking state. To some, it’s “otherworldly” and beyond words. Some people find their limbs turning so heavy, heavy relaxed, so comfortable that they don’t want to move. Some people feel light and floating, as though disconnected to their physical bodies. Some people feel warmth and tinglings. Some people get cold. (I also offer “the dream blanket” during trancework.) It has also been likened to those transitional moments before sleep.
We experience naturally-occurring trance doing everyday, just-living-our-lives things. Reading a book, playing on the computer, driving a car, daydreaming, watching television. It’s nothing “woo-woo,” and it’s nothing bizarre. It’s just us, activating our minds in a specific, natural way. What’s cool, what’s magical, is how we can use this “hypnosis state of mind” to create change in ourselves and in our lives. When you apply hypnosis, for a desired outcome, guided by a professional, that’s what is called hypnotherapy. That’s what I do.
So, if you’re still wondering: “What does trance feel like? And what can it do for me?” I’d like to show you. http://www.mindworkshypnosis.net Call me and I’ll be happy to meet with you and tell you more.
Warm Regards,

Hi, Seattle Hypnosis Friends!
One of the (ridiculous) myths of hypnosis is that it’s something dark and scary and otherwordly. Hollywood movies conjure up frightening images of hypnosis done by strange men wearing dracula capes in dim, shrouded basements. Accompanied by the sounds of maniacal laugher. “I control their minds!! I control their minds!!”
Uh, no! That’s not what it is.
The reality? Hypnosis is a type of super-accelerated effective communication. Ideas are shared with the problem-solving part of the mind, and it gets to work creating change. It’s comfortable, it’s fun, it’s pleasant. And professionals do it in professional spaces.
I’ve created a brief video below to share my Bellevue office space with you. I LOVE my office, it reflects how I approach this work. The key word is “professionalism.” Take a peek:
Some part-time hobbyist “hypnotists” in the Seattle area don’t think an office is necessary. They do sessions over the telephone, while they’re sitting in their bedroom painting their toenails. Here’s what I say about phone “sessions” on my FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions about Hypnosis) page:
“Hypnosis and NLP work is most effective face-to-face, which is why we don’t recommend internet or phone sessions. We don’t go for “watered down.” We want your success! Our work is interactive communications, and very hands on. Verbal (sound) alone is a tiny, tiny bit of information being conveyed, we use the full spectrum of communications information, using ALL the senses, going in both directions. Some of our favorite and most effective NLP techniques involve touch. You can’t do touch over the phone. Hypnosis deepening techniques also involve touch.”
Effectiveness! Super important. Professionalism. It’s also super important. We’re talking about your mind and your life and your goals being met. You want someone fully committed to this work and your success. A hypnotherapist who maintains a private, professional office space is a positive indicator that you’ve found someone who is serious about the work. Hypnosis (and that includes NLP) is my full-time career, my passion, not just something I’m doing “on the side” for a few bucks, like others in the Seattle area. Those people are hobbyists. Not real hypnotists. Not professionals.
When I was shopping for office spaces in the Seattle area, I was shocked at how many spaces were drab and dreary and noisy. Shared spaces. Closed-in rooms, with no light and no positive energy. Not acceptable! I chose a totally private office in Bellevue, it’s a positive energy space, in a beautiful, green park-like setting, close to the city and freeways and yet has a serene feel of “a world away.” And I’ve filled my space with life and color and many, many pieces of fine art. This is a space where I do “my art.” That’s hypnosis and NLP and more.
Come see the hypnosis office in Bellevue for yourself. We do offer free private in person consultations. Like anything, it’s more beautiful in person.
All the Best,
Connie
Kick the smoking habit, with Mindworks Hypnosis! Here’s Seattle area people who have done it with my help already: I QUIT SMOKING! Lots and lots of happy campers, offering up smoking cessation success testimonials. Join them, anytime!
Call Connie to set up a session, or to claim your free in-office face-to-face consultation:I don’t do phone consults, if you would like to learn more before starting, I want to meet you! And I want you to meet me!
The truth: Hypnotists offering phone consults are lazy. It’s a weak and incomplete way to understand and evaluate a client’s needs. And I want you to understand in particular the work I do called NLP — it’s a super powerful technology that’s been watered down and misunderstood by other therapists. I want you to know what NLP Neuro Linguistic Programming REALLY is, and how I use it for your success.
Now, some clients are ready to roll. And that’s great, too. Let’s go!
All the Best,
Connie
Hi, Seattle Hypnosis Friends!
I’ve had a lot of clients over the years, and I’ve helped with every variety of context and situation of desired change from weight loss to anxiety release to help with addictions, to sports improvement, to quitting smoking, and more. Some clients stick out as memorable, because of their willingness to “go for it” and cooperation, some for their incredible successes. Karel was both of those things.
Karel shared her thoughts about our work on Google with a 5-star review of Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP:
“Connie Brannan has helped me change the way I think about myself and my life. I saw her primarily for help with weight loss, but I ended up realizing many other positive changes at the same time. I was surprised and so pleased with the lasting results of my sessions: ability to concentrate on the way I wanted to eat, improvement in my personal relationships, and a completely rejuvenated interest in life.
After 20+ years of severe depression, I was amazed to find that I was free of it after just a single session. I am so grateful that I had the good sense to see Connie, and I recommend her services to anyone who wants similar improvements in their life.” – Karel Creason, Bellevue, WA.
And she wrote to me a few years later, offering this follow-up.
“Hello, Connie, I want to give you an update on the changes in my life since I saw you in February 2012. I have continued to benefit from my freedom from depression…
I also have been able to handle a number of emotionally difficult situations which, in the past, would have had me reeling. What a great improvement. I no longer become paralyzed with grief, fear, or anger when I learn of family illness, marital problems, self-esteem issues, etc.
These changes are because you told my subconscious what to do to make me live the way I want to. I have always held to your phrase that if something I think or believe isn’t useful in my life, get rid of it. What a concept!
In addition to letting you know how I’m doing myself, I wanted to let you know that I referred 2 of my friends to you, and they both have reported great happiness with what you did for them. ” — Karel Creason , Bellevue, WA
Yay, Karel. Keep living your life on your own terms, with joy and a sense of your own power to make life better.
This sentence of Karel’s sums up the power of creative, skilled NLP and hypnosis: “After 20+ years of severe depression, I was amazed to find that I was free of it after just a single session.” We ALL have this kind of transformational power residing in our unconscious minds–it’s merely a matter of effective and persuasive communications. That’s what skilled hypnosis is, opening up the door and engaging in effective communications with the unconscious mind, and offering up new choices, stimulating new habits and patterns of living.
As I said to Karel and I often say to clients when I’m happy with the shifts happening: “High five to the unconscious mind!”
All the Best,
Connie
We have over 160 happy client success stories on our website. However, that’s not the only place to find information about us. Sometimes the happiness and satisfaction radiate out onto the internet at large. Here are numerous 5-star reviews of our hypnosis and NLP services posted online over the last few years:
“I went to MindWorks for weight loss but ended up getting so much more out of my sessions with Connie. I have reduced stress, increased confidence and put past dysfunctional relationships in the past. Connie is a warm, caring, professional. The work we have done together has absolutely changed my life. I highly recommend Connie / MindWorks.” — Kelly, Seattle, WA
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
“This works!!! I dubbed Connie “my fairy godmother” because I can’t believe how fast and easy and brilliant her techniques work. I went to her for severe anxiety, one session I was handling the challenges in my life without panic attacks. I went back for insomnia, after one session I was sleeping like a sweet little creature curled up in pillows. There have been other side benefits of my work with her that include confidence and getting my sense of humor back. I highly respect this woman – her integrity, her talents, her heart and how effective her work has been in my life. I can not say enough about how easy, natural and powerful hypnosis and NLP are. If you have tried everything, stop struggling and go see Connie!” — Marcela Kenevan, Gig Harbor, WA
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
“I worked with Connie recently on some longstanding issues and found her to not only be incredibly competent in working with me, I also found her to be both extremely positive, uplifting and compassionate. I felt fortunate to be able to work with her and would recommend her to others.” –Carmen Q, Seattle, WA
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
“Since I’ve seen you on April 5th, I have NOT smoked. Wow! What a difference! I’ve smoked for over 30 years…this is great not to be chained to that bad habit anymore! Thank you, Connie!!” — Crystal Butrick,, Kent, WA
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
“I was referred to Connie by my medical doctor who knew from personal experience that she (Connie) had helped a two-pack a day cigarette smoker totally quit smoking. She helped me with my particular issue (fear of freeway driving) and I know how conscientious, caring, kind and knowledgeable she is. She genuinely cares about helping her clients. I recommend her highly and am grateful to have met her and have worked with her.” — Joy Epstein, Sun City, AZ
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
“Connie is amazing. I used Mindworks for weight-loss and also did a one day session on stress free holiday. It was A++++++. Besides being really good at her work, Connie is also a great person and super friendly and listens well. I highly recommend Connie and Mindworks!” –Kerry G, Mercer Island, WA.
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
“Connie treated me for fear of flying, and I cannot praise her enough! I had previously been hypnotized for this by someone else and it did not work. Connie was warm, kind, and very personable. I am an avid flyer and not only do I take a window seat, but I actually enjoy staring out into the sky! She is worth every penny and then some!” – Kristen Halley, Edmonds, WA
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
“Without exaggeration Connie literally changed my life. She helped me stop smoking after only 3 sessions (I smoked for 18 years). She also cured my big fear of fish and water after only one session, from the stage where I couldn’t watch a deep ocean documentary on TV, to having the courage and even enjoy going in a submarine in deep water to watch fishes and under-water life, that to me is day and night. Before I met Connie, I couldn’t even think of going to aquarium or swim in the beach. AND YES IT’S WORTH EVERY PENNY. Connie is professional, she will listen to you carefully and will guide you to make the changes you want, and she’s good at what she does. We just moved out of the state, and I will miss seeing her. Thank you Connie for doing such a wonderful job!” — A Google User, Seattle, WA
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
“I was at a proverbial crossroads in my life and knew it was time to make some changes, examine my ambitions & goals and move bravely forward into my future – perhaps an entirely new future. However, before I could do that, I needed to release some patterns & beliefs that had been holding me back. When I discovered Mindworks, I suspected it could be ideal for my needs. One consultation with Connie and I knew I had found the perfect place and the perfect person to help me. I was immediately at ease with Connie. Her ability to compassionately and skillfully blend techniques of NLP and hypnosis allows the client to discover solutions to their own issues and problems. I trust her. I believe in her and the tools that she passionately & masterfully uses to guide you to your own truth.” –Kerry D., Kent, WA
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
“I went to see Connie to quit smoking. The experience was very positive. Connie was very explanatory so I knew exactly what to expect when I sat in the chair. She explained how hypnosis worked and told me exactly what she would do while I was hypnotized. Connie helped me reach my goal. I walked out of her office a non-smoker and three months later, I am still smoke free. I would recommend her services to anyone.” — Jenny Rivera, Bellevue, WA
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
“Connie, I can’t begin to thank you for the ways you’ve made things better for me. I originally sought out Mindworks as the result of a glowing recommendation from a trusted friend and health professional in an effort to curb my neurotic eating. Connie was wonderfully professional and patient with me even when I lost confidence in myself or the process. I was able to dramatically reduce my nervous/neurotic eating, let go of self-loathing thoughts, gain some peace with difficult parent relationships and feel so much more hopeful and positive about the direction in which I was headed. I absolutely plan to return to do a little more mental house-cleaning and have recommended her to several others.” — A Google User, Seattle, WA
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
“I cannot even begin to say all I want to say about Connie and the work she does at Mindworks Hypnosis. I’ve worked with Connie on a couple different occasions, and she has changed my life completely. There have been so many things she has helped me with. I first sought her out for my fear of spiders, and she blew my mind. Fearful my entire life to being able to squash them no matter the size!! I went to her for my lack of energy and enthusiasm for working out and losing weight. I’ve lost 50lbs and am now 10lbs from my goal! I had knee problems for over a year on my right knee. Connie did some Reiki on it, and immediately the pain and stiffness was GONE, never to return. Since learning her relaxation techniques, I can fall asleep within minutes instead of lying awake in bed. By using her techniques for triggering my brain, I went from a 5 year straight smoker to now almost 5 months as a nonsmoker! Connie is patient, she listens, and she knows how to help you get past the road blocks, no matter the size. I’ve recommended her in the past and I will continue to do so in the future!” –Nichole V, Mercer Island, WA
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
“If you want to go to the true source of personal excellence in any field, you must go to Mindworks Hypnosis and NLP. I worked with Connie Brannan and was immediately set on a better path. Connie is positive, kind, warm, candid, intelligent, and her office has a healing feel to it-I was at ease instantly. My prior fears and false belief systems that were limiting my potential WERE GONE. This occurred instantly-after years of struggling with issues of self-esteem and confidence, in one afternoon Connie had eradicated those barriers to my success. I also studied under Connie to learn Neuro Linguistic Programming, and I am proud to report that at my new position I made a record number of sales IN ONE DAY that this company had NEVER SEEN previously.
If you have habits that you cannot break, if you have issues that are detrimental to your personal or business success, if you struggle with limiting beliefs that do not serve you, if you struggle with weight, smoking, phobias, please do yourself a favor and call Connie Brannan at Mindworks Hypnosis and NLP.
It was literally life changing for me.I recommend Connie Brannan and Mindworks Hypnosis to EVERYONE, and after witnessing my sales prowess, my employer now wants to meet with Connie. I have so much to thank her for…Thank you Connie Brannan!!!” –Kirsten Harris., Olympia, WA
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
“In the past Connie helped me go over one of the terrible part of my life. She did it so quickly and so good and I will be appreciating to her for this all my life. THANK YOU, Connie, VERY MUCH. “–Y.P., Seattle, WA
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
“I went to a seminar Connie led at Bellevue College TELOS programs. I was struck at one by her innate kindness and her genuine concern for all of us in the class. I was so helped that I signed up for her training program so that I could give others the type of amazing, healing experiences I was having. As a person who has ben a teacher since 1967, I have run and been in over 350 credit hours worth of classes. I can say very honestly, I have never had such outstanding teachers before, and doubt I will see many even half as good in the future! Everyday I face and do things I never believed possible before. I know I sound over the top, but I am so happy with her services that over the top is the only way to go.” –Gaia Hawkin, Kirkland, WA
I love when I see people changing right before my eyes. A recent weight loss client, Marian Zappala, of Redmond, WA is having wonderful changes through the work we’re doing: hypnosis and NLP. She’s becoming powerful, and losing weight along the wayl!
Marian is a lovely, intelligent lady who needed more confidence in herself. Now she’s got that. After two sessions, she reports that she’s already lost 4 pounds. Here’s what she says about what she’s noticing:
“I was an emotional eater. Since I’ve started the process of hypnosis I have felt more confident, more relaxed, and more in control of my life. And, through this process I have let go of those things that were controlling me, like irritability, boredom, stress, and I now have managed my eating patterns. I’ve lost 4 pounds so far.”
I no longer crave sweets, breads, or the carbs that were making me more tired, more heavy, and more irritable. I’m feeling more confident! And I see that it’s almost unconscious that I’m making these decisions to not eat the bread, the pasta, the rice. And definitely I’m eating smaller portions! The other night for dinner I chose to have just vegetables, and I was not hungry later. When I woke up in the morning, I was hungry but I didn’t want or get any bread. Which is a miracle!”
Food choice changes, yay! However, self image changes: super yay! Here is what Marian says about how she feels more empowered in her life, even beyond just this weight management goal.
“The idea of “I’m not good enough” has been completely destroyed.
I feel more armed for the world, better prepared. My confidence, my ability to manage stressful situations is back to where it used to be, like 15 years ago. So now I feel that it’s just a matter of time for me to achieve the weight loss that I want to have for myself.
I’m really happy about all these changes.
I definitely recommend Connie! You’ll have to come and try it! You’ll see that even in just one session you can feel a difference in your mood and your attitude towards making changes in your life regardless of what the change is. The process is very easy. Connie helps me through all the steps. It’s funny at times. It’s something that I think anybody who has an open mind to a change in their life can embrace.” –Marian Zappala, PHd., Redmond, WA.
Marian came in for weight loss, and that’s happening. Losing weight and finding so much more. I’m enjoying seeing this empowerment of Marian. More! We want more.
When I help people with weight management, we look at everything–and as we begin the work I ask about 1/2 hour’s worth of questions as to existing habits and patterns. My questions are not JUST about the food and exercise habits–they’re also about emotions, beliefs, and self image. I see what needs tweaking for optimal success. And then we go for it. Creative hypnotherapy and Neuro-Linguistic Programming. It works.
All the Best,
Connie
Last year in March, the world celebrated happy, with the International Day of Happiness. Here’s a video which shares that exuberant joy.
I think we should do more of that, celebrating joy and feeling happy. 🙂 I think happiness is too big and wonderful to contain within a single calendar day, and should be welcomed 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 the developer of NLP and 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 to you. NLP Neuro-Linguistic Programming is a high tech hypnosis described as “The Art & Science Of Excellence,”–and I am so pleased to have achieved the status of Licensed Trainer of NLP ® through Dr. Bandler.
Learn more anytime about the power of hypnosis and how easy it really is to find your happy, with the right tools, skillfully wielded. Here: http://www.mindworkshypnosis.net I love my hypnosis & NLP client work here in the Greater Seattle area. Your success, that’s what makes me happy.

Here’s a short but sweet blog post about the power of hypnosis and NLP to stop smoking.
Another non-smoker is made. I received this email from one of my Seattle hypnosis clients:
“I’ve been feeling really great and have not smoked since our session back in January.” — Ray Meek, Seattle.
Yay, Ray! 🙂 That’s what it’s about. I love it when I get those emails and phone calls. Your success is my success, and I am ALL about success. I want it. For you.
When you’re ready to go for it, so am I.

Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
I got another nice email feedback from one of my successful smoking cessation NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) and hypnotherapy clients. His name is Robert Stack, from Seattle, and he said today:
“I never thought freeing myself from smoking could be so much fun!” — Robert Stack, Seattle, WA 5/17/14.
I hear that a lot–surprise at how easy and how much fun this work is. Some people have an expectation that change should be unpleasant, grueling, gut-wrenching even. No! Not in my office. They think change takes a long time. No! Not with what I do. Here’s the truth: this work is fast and fascinating and FUN.
Hypnosis itself feels great, it’s a “close your eyes and relax” comfort and clarity of mind. I guide a client to this state of mind and then I create a customized flow of direct and indirect suggestions, words, ideas, stories, and images that inspire change. It’s a super pleasant, creative space. We spend about 30 to 40 minutes out of a session doing the hypnotherapy portion.
In the same session, we’ll spend a good solid hour or more doing NLP. NLP, Neuro-Linguistic Programming, is my primary tool, and my expertise, as a Licensed Trainer of NLP™ through the originator of NLP . NLP involves playing mind games, following my step-by-step processes manipulating images, sounds, feelings, and beliefs, which have the effect of creating amazing instant change on an unconscious level. And yes, it’s SO MUCH FUN.
Some people come into my office thinking the experience is going to be boo hoo into the kleenex — telling sad stories, like “talk therapies” they may have experienced. No way in h-e-double-toothpicks. Never. We don’t do that. My office is filled with laughter. We play with the STRUCTURE of thinking, not the content. It’s a completely different focus and approach. And, obviously, it works. Check out the over 160+ testimonials I have on http://www.mindworkshypnosis.net helping with everything under the sun.
People want results. And so do I. And how much better to achieve that success in a quick and fun manner with hypnosis and NLP. Robert has learned what I do and it’s power for change, and what the experience itself is like. You can, too.
Warm Regards,
Connie
Hi, Hypno-Friends!
I’d like to share this great healthy eating article I found on the internet. It’s a set of weight loss tips. Now, it’s my belief that people in the “weight loss struggle” really DO know how to lose weight. They know the formula: eat less, choose healthy, and be more active. They just don’t activate them.
That’s where hypnosis comes in. Hypnosis turns ideas into action.
Here is a link to the article. These tips are good advice for weight loss. However, rarely is advice alone enough to make it happen. You need the mindset of success. You need the focus, and drive, the determination and motivation. You need the “go for it.” You need the tenacity. “Stay with it.” Re-shaping your body can be a lengthy process, and you need to be in it to win it for the long haul. That’s where hypnosis shines. You need the “no way” automated response attached to unhealthy foods and overeating. That’s where hypnosis is magic. You need the “I’m making time for me” directed choice to become more active physically. That’s where hypnosis helps.
Hypnosis does help!
Having a plan (advice and tips and understanding food choices and nutrition), that’s all well and good. Making those choices reality on an ongoing daily basis, that’s a REAL plan for success. Call me and we’ll talk about the power of your mind to do just that.
Warm Regards,
Connie

Are you ready for the new year? Here it comes:
Hello, Hypno-Enthusiasts!
Here is another slam-dunk learning opportunity at Bellevue College. Hypnosis for Smoking Cessation. I teach you a tool called self hypnosis, and we do some work in class on helping you quit smoking as well.
Info: http://www.campusce.net/BC/course/course.aspx?C=12481&pc=1066&mc=1387&sc=
This event is hypnosis hands on. Experiential. You get hypnotized, for your healthy changes. Not only do you learn ABOUT hypnosis, you DO hypnosis. I guide you, and then you play with hypnosis yourself, on an ongoing basis. It’s like the old saying: give a man a fish and he has dinner, teach him how to fish, and he can feed himself for a lifetime. Hypnosis will feed your well-being for a lifetime.
The school location is Bellevue, through Bellevue College’s continuing education department, however, I’m hoping we attract learners from every corner of Seattle and beyond. Hypnosis is too big and wonderful to be contained geographically.
Learn more here:
http://www.campusce.net/BC/course/course.aspx?C=12481&pc=1066&mc=1387&sc=
These courses are a lot of fun. I do hope you’ll join me. Learn self hypnosis to quit smoking for the low low price of $89. When you think about the costs of smoking to your pocketbook and your health, this is an amazing opportunity.
Warm Regards,
Connie
Discover it for yourself!

Connie

Seattle, Hypnosis works! It really, really does. Ask Steve Rozday who was suffering with anxiety. Here’s what he has to say after working with me at Mindworks Hypnosis and NLP. 🙂

That’s right, Seattle! Hypnosis works for smoking cessation. Ask D. Butrick. He smoked for 30 years, until he didn’t. One session, baby!
Hypnosis speaks to the inner mind where habits are formed. And can be broken as easily. See it for yourself, and discover what it’s like to breathe easily and feel good again.
Warm Regards,
Connie
D. Butrick of Seattle, WA reports his quit smoking with hypnosis success with our Neuro Linguistic Hypnotherapy. He had smoked for 30 years, and had tried unsuccessfully to quit numerous times. Then he found what does work! Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP for effective smoking cessation.
One hypnosis session was all it took for D to achieve his goal. Yay, D!!! He gave us a report:
“Since I’ve seen you on April 5th, I have NOT smoked. Wow! What a difference! I’ve smoked for over 30 years…this is great not to be chained to that bad habit any more! Thank you, Connie!!”

Name your success, Seattle: hypnosis works.
Discover what the power of your own mind can do for you! Hypnosis is not at all what people think it is, based on “Hollyweird” and TV. No voo doo, no shrouds, no strange dark rooms, no swinging pocket watches. Hypnosis is something so natural and so powerful–it’s your brain power being activated. And that happens through WORDS, and imagery and stories. It’s a skilled use of communication.
Call to learn more about what hypnosis REALLY is. (425) 564-8608. As always, Michael and I offer free in-office consultations. This is a tool very much for the 21st century, and beyond.

Buddha was another smart cookie. He obviously shared the hypnotic mindset. What you think, you become. Change begins in your mind.
In a nutshell, that’s the work Michael and I do at Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP here in the Seattle area. We help people change their thinking, become more resourceful in the world, and see life differently, and those differences in thinking lead to differences in living. It’s that easy.
And that difficult. Because skilled hypnotism and Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP: that’s a high tech hypnosis) in the Seattle area is not as common as you might think. If you find a hypnotist who is GOOD, passionate, creative, skilled, and shares Buddha’s thinking on this, well, magic can happen. And does!
Call us to learn more about the mind and personal growth and personal development and habit change. That’s our expertise! We can help you reshape your thinking in ways that serve your goals. And your life success! As a reminder that, yes, hypnosis works, check out the scores of happy hypnosis client testimonials on our website!
I found this pic on Social Media today. This cartoon talks about “forgetting,” and I believe that idea as presented is not the whole story. There is no forgetting. Let me tell you more about the unconscious mind, how it works, and the power of unconscious ideas to actually “do change.” I’m going to share what I know to be true with you, Seattle, about hypnosis, my passion!
Even if the conscious (thinking, awake) mind doesn’t remember these “amazing ideas,” the ideas are still in THERE, and working inside the unconscious (creative, intuitive, power) mind. They’re active. They’re not “lost.” They are beyond conscious awareness, and that’s where they are most potent and useful. Unconscious ideas move us, to be and do different actions in the world.
This should not be an “Oh, well, disappointment” cartoon, it should be a “Hell, yes, and YAY!!!! Isn’t that terrific?” cartoon. And when the unconscious mind thinks it is useful, you DO remember consciously.
Here is more information about hypnosis, Seattle! Yes, those moments before sleep are a hypnotic state of mind. Myriads of tests have been done to understand and label brainwave patterns, and those moments before sleep are an identical brainwave pattern to hypnosis, called Theta waves. Every night as you’re falling asleep, you pass through hypnosis. And every morning when you awake from sleep, you pass through hypnosis. This is not some otherworldly unknown, this is our life. Hypnosis is natural, and we do it everyday.
Here, I have a chart of brainwave patterns, and explanation. The hypnotic state of mind is between analytical, conscious thinking (Beta) and deep unconscious sleep (Delta). It’s a natural state in which we drift in and out of throughout each day.
Those creative thoughts, keep them coming, brain. Consciously or unconsciously. Those moments before sleep are a power state of mind, and the unconscious will take those creative ideas and fly with them and create changes in the life that are wonderful. Who cares what the conscious mind remembers?
Here’s to your positive changes, Seattle!
Warm Regards,
Connie
Karen Downer, of the Seattle area, has been tapping into the power of her mind. And guess what, the changes are exciting. Wonderful, positive changes in outlook, and behaviors. Karen notices the changes, and that’s why she’s in LOVE. With hypnosis.
There’s an old song my Mom liked to sing: “to know know know her is to love love love her…” Get to know hypnosis, Seattle! You will LOVE her. 🙂
Warmly,
Connie
Hi, Hypno-Friends!
More evidence in support of skilled hypnotherapy and NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) as a tool for life success. Cal Ihler, here, quit smoking. He had been trying unsuccessfully to end smoking for 20 years, meeting only with disappointment, with “hardship and stress.”
That’s as dead as the smoking habit, after working with us. 🙂 Cal reports that his new state is joy and happiness and the satisfaction of doing what he wants to do. Hear it in his own words!
Yay, Cal! Two months without cigarettes, soon to be 2 years, then 20 years, then his entire life as a nonsmoker. The smoking habit will be a dim memory, lost in the mists of antiquity.
If you’re ready to REALLY get down and dirty and say “hell no” to cigarettes, well, these tools work. Some people quit in a single session, and the change comes like “boom!!” Instantaneous transformation. Walk in a smoker, walk out, a nonsmoker. Check out the testimonials here which support that. Some people, like Cal here, take a couple or three sessions for success as the mind processes the changes at a rate of speed that is comfortable.
Bottom line: change happens. Success happens.
When you’re ready to quit smoking, and to enter a state like Cal describes: successful and joy-filled and happy, call us! 🙂
Warm Regards,
Connie

Stop Smoking, Seattle! It’s good advice. It’s also a website: http://www.stopsmokingseattle.com/. I have several websites that I’ve created, and this site is about hypnosis for smoking cessation.
Here’s an advertising video for my site:
On my many websites, I like to highlight the different things hypnosis is good for. Short answer: pretty much EVERYTHING. Michael likes to say: “If the brain is involved, hypnosis helps.” Yes.
http://www.stopsmokingseattle.com has lots of good information about studies on hypnotic success with quit smoking. Kind of like a battle royale, and hypnosis wins! Hypnosis is more effective than other stop smoking tools: nicotine gum, the patch, drugs, herbal remedies, acupuncture, and so on. I also talk about all the chemicals that are in cigarettes, and how your body has the capacity to heal itself from the effects of cigarettes and the time frames involved. It’s interesting stuff.
And primary, of course, on my hypnosis for stop smoking website, is the PROOF. Seattle area people I’ve helped using hypnotherapy and NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) who agreed to let me share their success stories. Actually, there are many providers of hypnosis in Seattle, with varying skill sets. My advice: Go for quality! Go for proven success. That’s me and Michael and our passion: Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP. It’s the best in Seattle hypnotherapy services.
If you yourself are interested in dumping tobacco use, or know someone who is, direct them to my website. More people should know that skilled hypnosis is the best tool to stop smoking, and stay stopped.
Warm Regards,
Connie
I LOVE my happy clients. Chalk up another win for my blend of hypnotherapy and NLP vs. tobacco.
Cal Ihler of Woodinville, WA. shared his success story today in an email, and I’ve gotten his permission to share it with you. He’s a non-smoker now, and feelin’ GOOD!!
“Hi Connie, I want to share with you that I have not been smoking for over 5 weeks now! The onsite sessions coupled with your no smoking cd really has allowed me to finally take control and be proud of myself for being able to do what I have wanted to do…stop smoking!! I am so grateful for your help! Thank You!” –Cal Ihler, Woodinville, WA
High-Five to the unconscious mind! Good job, Cal. If your New Year’s Resolution is to STOP SMOKING once and forever, call me. As Cal will tell you: Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP, it works!
Warm Regards,
Connie
