Hypnosis Makes All Things Possible
“I dwell in possibility.” – Emily Dickinson
I’m fond of the expression: “The world is your oyster.” Maybe that’s from growing up in the Pacific Northwest, where oyster hunting and oyster shucking with my dad and family is a happy memory. We had a secret place at Hood Canal where you could pick up your limit of clams and oysters in a matter of a few minutes. Abundance, a secret reserve.
Well, there’s a not-so-secret place where you have everything you need to achieve any goal whatsoever…it’s your unconscious mind. It’s a resourceful, creative, problem-solving place. And we have access to this world of positive possibility which resides in you. That access is “hypnosis.”
If you’re ready to activate possibility (that’s called action and change), that’s what Michael and I do at Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP. We offer skilled NLP Neuro-Linguistic Programming and hypnotherapy.
What’s your dream?
All the Best,
Connie

If you expect failure, here it comes! The mind controls our outcomes, in business, and in life. At Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP we help you Dream Big and EXPECT to succeed. And you will, and you do.

Goodbye to Procrastination – Hypnosis Client Testimonial
Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
Here’s another happy client report. Love to get good news from my clients about how our NLP and hypnotherapy work is changing and shaping their success.
“I have been able to pick up the phone without hesitation for numerous types of business calls, which I would have procrastinated on before. This is the most amazing difference and the most important, since this directly relates to me getting the referrals I need that lead to my income.” –B. P., Bellevue, WA
That’s right, the right state of mind fuels success in business. And in life. Procrastination is built on fear. We remove fear, and replace it with confidence, motivation, and “go for it.”
If you’re stuck anywhere on the list below, we can help. No ideas? We install inspiration and creativity. Not starting a project? We install passion and a sense of pleasure and immediacy. Not finishing? We install energy and confidence and motivation. How would you rather feel and then you can be successful? We create that.
All the Best,
Connie

Success Maker Services – Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP
Hello, Greater Seattle Hypnosis Friends!
There are two kinds of change, and both are wonderful for helping a life to be more in alignment with goals and desires: remedial change and generative change.
Remedial change is characterized by this mindset: I have a problem, that I want to change. Something needs “fixing.” I need to lose weight, for example. I need to refocus on a healthy lifestyle. Or, I need to dump this cigarette habit. Or, I need to get over this irrational fear of getting on the airplane. There are things you want to start doing, and there are things you want to stop doing. Change. This type of change is wonderful. In the literature, we call this: self-improvement.
Generative change is somewhat different. It’s characterized by this mindset: I’m good, I want more, and I’m capable of it. Generative change is more aptly called: self-development. You may already be fantastic at a skill-set. You want more! You may be a creative person, but you’d like unconscious help to be more creative. More inspired. More focused on success. More motivated. Or more athletic.
Most of our services work on helping build success in both of these types of change at once. However, here are some of our services that lend especially well to generative change success and positive outcomes:
Tweaking and optimizing. Those words are not just for websites, they are for lives as well. We’re using such a tiny, infinitesimal part of our brain power. More is good. Hypnosis unlocks that potential and helps us to be more of what we want for ourselves and that helps us be successful and enjoy life more. And that’s what it’s all about. Join me in these brain and life enhancing adventures called hypnosis and NLP.

Goodbye to Interview Jitters — Resilient with Hypnosis
Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
Have you ever been nervous? Sometimes it makes good sense and is appropriate, in that it keeps you safe! Keeps you from walking alone in dark alley ways, driving fast on icy roads, or petting the hungry bear coming up to your campsite.
Sometimes fear is useful. Sometimes not! Most times, not!
Most times, fear and nervous and anxious are a lug wrench messing with life success. Inappropriate, and not useful. Katherine H. of Seattle, WA was experiencing anxiety and dread. We prepped her for job interviewing. Dread won’t land a job, in particular! An interview is a time to shine and be confident and communicate effectively. After Neuro-Linguistic Hypnotherapy, she did just that.
Here’s her report:
“Hi Connie, I’m doing quite well. I’m feeling like my old self again, which is terrific! I interviewed for a job today in Bellevue! What I have noticed is that I don’t have those dread feelings anymore…Today as I was waiting for the interview, my brain said happy! It felt soothing. 🙂 It’s really nice not to be bothered with the roller coaster ride and I find that I am more resilient overall.” — Katherine H., Seattle, WA.
Terrific, is right!
How long did it take to achieve this turnaround, this transformation? From fear and dread to happy, soothing resiliency? Quicker than you think. A few hours, a few sessions. Not years of laborious therapies that like to talk about problems. We don’t analyze problems, we do the work to END the problems. If other therapies had the tools to do so, they would. They don’t. Here’s what works: pure NLP done right combined with creative (not canned or generic) hypnosis. I love what I do, because it is creative.
Some Seattle area hypnotists will read a generic script at you in a 45 minute hypnosis session, and call it good to go. In my book, not good enough. Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP offers something very, very different. A creative flow of words, ideas and communications designed for your mind and life, that lasts 1.5 to 2 hours. Interactive! Fun! Fascinating! And it works. NLP is a “high tech” hypnosis, and very few are skilled in it, which is unfortunate. Done right, it’s amazing.
The proof is in the pudding. We’ve updated the website today, http://www.mindworkshypnosis.net with more client success testimonials, in addition to Katherine’s. We’ve shared over 250 client reports and comments of their successful life changes at this point. If you’ve got a few hours to spare, they’re great reading and thoroughly inspirational!
You didn’t know change was so easy, did you? Find out for yourself, any time! Call me at 425-564-8608 for a free consultation and learn more about what I do and how I can help.
All the Best,
Connie

A Power Approach: We Don’t Talk About Change, We Create It!
Hi, Greater Seattle hypnosis friends!
Another happy client shares her success with Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP services. Diana, of Woodinville, WA, came in for several issues, which we worked concurrently. She did GREAT, she collaborated and did what I asked, to create a new way of thinking.
“When you change how you think, how you think changes you!” My hubby and biz partner, Michael, coined that phrase! And it’s absolute truth.
Here’s what Diana says after 4 sessions of Neuro Linguistic Hypnotherapy at Mindworks Hypnosis:
“Connie, as we finished up our sessions today I wanted to thank you and say a few words.
I had been to counseling at least three times over the past 28 years for: procrastination/not motivated/negative/low energy/self-esteem-confidence. Well I spent a lot of [time] talking, however, I did not receive much help, only more frustration.
I have always been open to alternative therapies but had not explored the
possibilities of what Hypnosis could do for me until this year. I researched
Hypnotherapists in my area. I viewed your web site and read the patient
reviews. After I watched your video, I felt there was a connection and
believed you could help.
I knew I had made the right choice the minute I walked into your office. The office is very calming, light, bright & creative. You are very confident and explained what therapies you use, your degrees, certificates, years of experience including your own successes. I was ready to get started!
It was all so easy and relaxing. I was amazed after the first session how I
had changed without even thinking about it. I just did not want to be
un-motivated, I had energy to get things done – I did not go crazy by any
means but it felt good to think to myself,” hmm I really don’t feel like
watching anymore TV”. I did not want to put things off until tomorrow – before, I was the queen of making things sound so much better if I did them tomorrow!
It felt awesome to see myself energized to go out for a walk or work in the
yard, instead of ugh – really a walk. I don’t crave the salty snacks, if I eat them – I just have a few and I’m satisfied. The things that bothered me are simply gone, just like you said – whoosh. The hypnosis itself is amazingly relaxing, I was aware of everything – yet the time slipped by.
I am so excited to work with my Self Hypnosis..I let you know how it goes. Thank you again!” — Diana S, Woodinville, WA
It seems like a big bundle of stuff, doesn’t it? Procrastination. Self Esteem issues. Confidence issues. Negative thinking. It’s all connected, and our work touches all of it. We don’t work on one behavior or THING. We work on life. Here’s an analogy…pro bowler. They know how to hit pins to knock down other pins with the one ball roll. We do that, too. I look for the biggest and best things to change which will have the most positive impact for the person in front of me. That skill is part of the artistry of hypnosis and what makes a creative hypnotist superior to a script-reading hypnotist.
I love my art. And I’m happy for Diana. I taught her a great tool, called “Self Hypnosis.” So she can work any goals for herself on an ongoing basis, utilizing this power part of the mind–her unconscious mind. Conscious mind work didn’t get her very far, as she said, 28 years of counseling. This approach is very different. We don’t analyze problems, we heal and end them. 28 years of counseling (and no success) or 4 sessions with Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP (and life changes galore). Which sounds better? You pick!
All the Best,
Connie

What is Hypnosis?
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

Confidence!! With Hypnosis
Hi, Seattle area Hypnosis Friends (and beyond):
Another happy hypnosis client report appeared in my email today. Yay! We LIKE success. 🙂
Kal came in several months ago to our hypnotherapy & NLP clinic in Bellevue. He wanted to work on confidence. And so we did!
We both automated confidence in times and situations where it would be useful to him, like in business, and like in personal relationships and dating situations. And, we also gave Kal control of the feeling. To bring it whenever he wanted. Here’s his report:
“Hi Connie; How are you doing? Hope all is well at your end. I wanted to follow up with you and let you know that the NLP session with you has worked out really well for me. My confidence levels have really shot through the roof and I am in a much better state in attracting relationships. Thanks.” Kal, Seattle, WA.
Good job, Kal. We asked your unconscious mind to keep working it even beyond our sessions, so you can expect more and more confidence in the days and weeks to come.
Happy clients is where it’s at! Yay for success. I hope I get an invitation to Kal’s wedding down the road.
All the Best,
Connie
Improve Confidence and Kick Self Doubt Out the Door with Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP
Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
Sometimes life feels like random events move us creating random outcomes. We might doubt our abilities, and hesitate or waffle on decisions–be those decisions large or small. We’re paralyzed with self doubt. Confusion. Lack of confidence. Indecisiveness. Fear.
I think there’s a better way to live.
I found this ridiculous item at “Stupidiotic” store in Las Vegas. It’s called the “Decision Aider.” For those who can’t decide. A random magnetic pendulum helps you “decide.”
Do you want to keep waffling on decisions? The answer is: “No!” What would it be like to live with confidence in yourself and your ability to make fast and clear-minded decisions? That sounds preferable to me! And guess what? Hypnosis & NLP is a tool to create that in you. With my trademarked process called Designer Feelings®, we build your: Unshakable confidence. Clear thinking. Quick synthesis of large amounts of information. Optimism. And energy to go for it! All blended into one powerhouse state of mind for success.
You know what’s nice about making a decision? You’re doing something, you’re moving forward. And that’s always good. Even the wrong decision is better than the limbo-land of no decision. Why is it better? Because you can always take stock, change course, and make new decisions later. That’s called “control.”
In the world of NLP, we express it as: “There is no failure, only feedback.” And that feedback helps us move in the directions we want. Success, joy, fun, abundance, etc.
If you’d like to improve your confidence and decisiveness, we can help. Our trademarked process is called Designer Feelings®. That’s what we do, kick self doubt out the door, and then lock it. So it can’t get back in. And you’ll find yourself making the best decisions for your life. The first one is calling Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP. 425-564-8608.
All the Best,
Connie

Hi, Hypnosis Friends!
I’ve been doing this work, hypnosis and NLP, in the Seattle area for 9 years now. And what I absolutely sense is that hypnosis is becoming more recognized as something that WORKS.

Experience Hypnosis – Bellevue College Event 10-21-15
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

Hypnosis is Meditation on Steroids
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/
Hypnosis is one of my great loves. I have another: NLP. Here’re the other courses we’re offering next month:
Power of Mind Workshops
NLP for Personal Development: June 6, 2015
Rapport & Relating, NLP for Dating: June 13, 2015
Self Hypnosis: June 20, 2015
NLP for Sales and Business Success: June 27, 2015

“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
It’s Not What You’re Capable Of, It’s What You’re Doing.
I woke up this morning with a hypnosis thought running through my mind. I thought I’d share it! 🙂
It’s not what you’re capable of, it’s what you’re doing.
There’s a world of difference between I want or even I can vs. I am doing it. We help you make the leap from intention to action. That’s the power of skilled hypnosis.
You know there’s a difference between who you are right now in the expressions of your life and who you desire to be. There’s some magic in that acorn, a tiny thing dreaming of greatness, and making it happen. Action, activation, that’s the difference.
There’s that same magic in you. That difference for our success is really just a quality of mind. Change yours any time, adopt a mindset customized for your success, and do the things you want to do for your life. We’ve all only got so many ticks of the clock in this world–make your life beautiful, successful, healthy, happy, and magical, starting now.
Call us and make it happen. Connie (425) 564-8608

Business Success – WA Client Testimonial for Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP
Hi, Hypnosis Friends & Enthusiasts!
Here’s another happy client success testimonial for Seattle area’s Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP. Tom Farrish owns a business in Randle, WA. He wanted to grow his business, and knew that it would be useful to focus his mind on success, PROFITS, and business growth with skilled hypnotherapy and NLP.
Tom’s trip from Randle, WA to Bellevue, WA is over 100 miles, that’s a 2+ hour drive each way to our offices. That’s motivation for change!
There’s a mindset for optimal success, in any endeavor, whether it’s sports enhancement or business growth or simple habits like eating healthy and working out! In Tom’s case, his mind became confident and focused on business growth, and his expectation of financial success helped him to make it happen. He’s noticing opportunities and acting on them, in a powerful way! The skies the limit, Tom!
I’ve said this often on this blog: “What you focus on expands!” In other words, you find what you’re looking for. A mind focused and expecting and confident of success does what it takes to make it happen.

All the Best,

Discover the Magic of Skilled NLP and Hypnotherapy.
I love this video. It demonstrates SKILL:
When a person is passionate about what they do, it shows. It shines. Because they learn and practice and get good at it. They take joy and pride in it. They don’t settle for “just ok.” They want more. This man has practiced with his cards. 🙂
This is a mindset I like, because it’s also mine. It shows in the work I do as Mindworks Hypnosis & NLP.
In one of my earliest hypnosis trainings, the instructor referred to hypnotherapy as a “Matchbook Profession.” That’s not a compliment. It means you learn it for a buck and it’s a by the numbers affair, involving reading purchased scripts at people. No way, Jose. Perhaps some hypnotherapists are of that mindset and modus operandi, not me. This is an art, and endlessly creative, and there’s always more to learn, which is why I’m drawn to it.
My goal is and always has been, client successes. When a client “wins” (successfully gets his goal), I win. And I’m passionate about winning.
If you’ve tried some other therapies and even some other hypnotherapist or purported NLP practitioner and were not impressed with the results, go for someone more creative, skilled and passionate. You may be awesomely surprised at how quickly life improves for you.
All the best,
Connie
The Hypnotic Spread — Success, that is!
- Walt Disney was a hypnotist?
Hi, Hypno-Friends!
“Life has improved drastically.” One of the interesting things about hypnosis and Neuro Linguistic Programming is their power to “generalize” success into several areas of life simultaneously. This often happens. A positive change does not happen inside a vacuum, it happens inside a life, and life is movement and connections, with fingers which reach and intertwine and grow.
One healthy change leads to more healthy changes. 🙂 Once your mind gets rolling in that way (the purpose of what I do–focusing your mind on success), well, the desired changes happen quickly. And spread more success. The testimonial below is from a woman who got more than she bargained for when she came in for hypnosis.
Here is Kelli Zielinksi’s report of the dramatic changes she’s noticing in her life after a few sessions of Neuro Linguistic Hypnotherapy:
“Hi Connie, I’m doing fabulously! Working with you has absolutely changed my life, here’s some things I’ve noticed:
-Much more relaxed and focused; I’m able to deal with situations better than before when I get stressed, and am able to get into a state of calm when I need to. My working life has improved drastically
-I’m sleeping properly! I love that I sleep so much better; not only am I off the medication I used to have to take almost nightly to help me sleep, I also find that the sleep I get is a lot deeper.
-Dropped two pant sizes
-Eating appropriate portions
-Drinking more water
-Increased motivation to exercise
I’ve lost weight, but the best part is not worrying so much about the weight. Instead, I’m focusing on healthy habits, and the rest is just working itself out. I feel like I’m in control and have the right priorities, rather than worrying so much about comparing myself to others. It’s a great feeling!
-Kelli”
Way to go, Kelli! Thank you for sharing your success and allowing me to share it with the world here on my blog and website. Yes, hypnosis works. It has an effect. It changes lives for the better. It’s amazing. It’s power. Not the hypnotist’s power, it’s the client’s mind that has the power. Kelli did this, amazingly well. Yay, Kelli!
With the right tools, success is easy. Find yours.
Warm Regards,
Connie

It’s “Act Happy Week!” – The Chemistry of Success
- Get happy with hypnosis and NLP
Hi, Hypno-Friends!
My calendar of events tells me it’s “Act Happy Week” beginning on March 19th. Yay! I’m ready! I’m celebrating!! Big time! Are you?
I’ll tell you why I think you should participate in this as well. When you choose to “act happy,” or “pretend” to be happy, you unleash all kinds of good chemicals in your body. Pretty soon you’re not acting, you’re feeling and being happy. Happy is good. Happy leads a person into all manner of success making, improving health, relationships, even cognitive function, wealth.
Happy is the chemistry of success! We got endorphins, we got oxytocins. We got dopamine. I don’t know what all. I don’t need to know. I can feel it and it’s good!
This is no stretch for me. I’m happy pretty much all year long. For those of you who have found happiness to be difficult, start now, with “Act Happy Week!” Practice. Smile, dance, laugh, and begin to feel good.
Yes, I’m extremely good at happy. Why? I’m a Licensed Trainer of NLP. NLP is a methodology that offers shortcuts to creating new feelings in your body at will. You can pump up your happy and hold onto it where it’s useful for your success. Any time of year. Why not?
Warm Regards,
Connie

You never stop learning! Not ever. That’s one of my core beliefs, and as such it leads to the possibility of creating continuously a life more in alignment with pleasure, joy, success, power, and so on. Learning gives you the ability to rudder your own ship. Learning is power. Learning is magic. Learning keeps your mind sharp and young.
Who wants an easy and FUN one-evening learning experience, which just happens to be amazingly useful as well? (And inexpensive.) I’m offering something new at Bellevue College, as part of the Personal Development Continuing Education program. Info:

Teaching Tonight – Self Hypnosis @ Bellevue College
http://www.campusce.net/BC/course/course.aspx?C=11562&pc=1066&mc=1387&sc
Room for one more, honey! (Line from a Twilight Zone episode I particularly enjoy!) 🙂
Hi, Hypno-Friends!
I’m teaching another course at Bellevue College. This one is “Building Confidence and Self Esteem Through Self Hypnosis.” It’s 2 nights, tonight (Feb 15) and also Feb 22. Six hours total. In those magical 6 hours, I’ll be presenting an experiential hypnotic extravaganza of learning.
I hypnotize the group en masse, and set a trigger for the students to return to “instant trance” anytime they like. With this tool, we can focus our own minds on positive changes–and the unconscious mind is the part of your brain that makes things happen. It’s the seat of our emotions and behaviors.
In the class, we practice hypnosis. We learn the truth about hypnosis. We learn how to craft what’s known as a “well-formed goal.” (You have to know what you want in order to get it!)
It’s fun. It’s hypnotic. It’s inexpensive. This class through Bellevue College is only $89. What a deal! If you want in, there’s still room as of this writing:
http://www.campusce.net/BC/course/course.aspx?C=11562&pc=1066&mc=1387&sc
Hypnosis. It’s everywhere you want to be. Including Bellevue College tonight. Join me if you can, you must sign up through BC. I know you’ll be glad you did!
Warm Regards,
Connie
World Hypnotism Day 1/28 – Thank You to Attendees!
Hi, Guys!
Michael and I attended the festivities today in Bellevue around our state’s National Guild of Hypnotists’ chapter’s World Hypnotism Day events. Michael and I were financial sponsors of the event as well as participants. Michael gave free public talks on getting over PTSD, and another on the Magic of Instant Change, and a class for professional hypnotists on hypnotic “inductions.” (Bringing someone into hypnosis.) He also manned a Q&A panel to answer questions re: hypnosis and hypnotherapy.
I gave a free talk on Smoking Cessation, as well as a paid course for professionals on how to bring a resource state into a problem state and dissolve the problem state — Advanced techniques of NLP Anchoring.
It was a long day, but FUN! Thank you to all who attended, and we hope you learned more about the power of your own minds.
World Hypnotism Day is an event to promote the understanding of hypnosis as a healing art–I think that we met that challenge today. 🙂 For more local events, keep your eyes on my “events page” at the top of this blog. Hypnosis is something to be celebrated all year long, not just one day.
Warm Regards,
Connie
Hello, Success and Achievement!
I worked with the gentleman below for anxious feelings which were inhibiting his success and helped him reconnect to his own positive energy. It was always there, in abundance.
“Hello Connie, I just wanted to let you know, so far everything is going great! I’m very happy I had the opportunity to meet someone like yourself in my life. You’ve helped me so much…you have a tremendous amount of positive energy and that’s what I’m naturally all about! : ) Thanks again! Best regards, Wasiem Hamadeh, Renton, WA”
Yay, Wasiem! You go, boy! 🙂
For the record, I’m not medical. I never “treat” anxiety or any medical conditions. I simply help people feel better, choose different behaviors, and life improves and goals are met.
Doctors subscribe to the one-size-fits-all methodology of change. Categorization. Labeling. And then medicine’s idea of the grand fix–here, take this drug. Or these drugs. You have “depression.” Here’s a drug for that. You have “anxiety.” Here’s a drug for that. You have “insomnia.” Here’s a drug for that. Problem is, that often doesn’t work in creating solutions and a better life. Client-centered NLP and hypnosis does work.
Everyone is different, and what they need is different. I figure out how (not why) my specific client is choosing (yes, it’s a choice) to feel anxious, or sad, or stuck, or what
have you. All these “medical conditions” which really devolve down into feelings and behaviors flowing from having those feelings can be easily changed with NLP and hypnotherapy. We choose a better feeling or blend of feelings instead. Take two of these (better feelings, how about happy and joy-filled) and and you won’t need to call me or anyone else in the morning.
Warm Regards,
Connie
The Art of Strategic Change
Hi, Guys! I have a riddle for you! 🙂
What does a military strategist and a skilled NLP change worker have in common? Answer: A LOT!!
Here’s my goal in the work I do with clients: strategic change, elegant change, fast change, helping clients get the most bang for the buck, finding the key strongholds of the problem, and taking them out in strategic, rapid fire sequence. Using imagination, strategy, and fire power to win “the war” against the issue at hand.
My “strategic change” blitzkrieg is a different approach than traditional “talk therapy” counselors. They’re all about discussion, about rolling around in the muck, accentuating and revivifying negative thoughts and emotions over and over and feeling bad. Metaphor: A counselor would want to figure out WHY an unwashed person smells so bad, uncover the origins and chemistry of body odor and what the person did to create it, whereas I would say: You smell bad. Take a shower. And I’d show them the shower, and even turn it on for them.
Talk therapies: It’s not about movement, and it’s not about change. It would not be unusual for a person to see a counselor for YEARS on a particular issue. To me, that’s absolutely ridiculous. RIDICULOUS! Unconscionable, really. Is it about the money, about milking people for money? There’s no way in hell change takes years. It takes minutes. That’s the firepower of NLP and hypnosis.
And I’m always working to increase my personal firepower! To increase my arsenal of weaponry. How? I am continuously learning more, and becoming more and more skilled, mastering the work of hypnosis, Neuro-Linguistic Programming, conversational hypnosis, energy work, and more. It’s a different focus than some hypnotists.
Some of my colleagues spend their money on marketing guys to help artificially pump up their web presence and SEO (Search engine optimization)–one guy pays someone else who is not even a hypnotist to write his blog and the posts are insipid!–you know where I spend my money? On learning, on live trainings with the best of the best! To become better at the work I do. To me that’s massively more important and I believe leads to true and legitimate success. My arsenal is knowledge and skill, not fluff and puff.
Another hypnotist friend of mine (and he’s wonderful and I love him) tells clients: “it will require at least three sessions and possibly six before results start to show.”
Frankly, that’s not good enough for me. No way. I expect some level of positive results to show after a single session with me, and complete success on any specific issue in at MOST four sessions. What happens though, is that an array of issues are interlinked (for example confidence and self esteem and weight loss), and all of that is sorted through in around four sessions.
One of my clients yesterday used this phrase describing his desire to quit smoking NOW: He wanted “One and Done!” It’s not always possible to complete the work in a single session depending on the person and his situation, but in his case, we did that for him. “One and Done!” Many of my clients experience this!
Am I better than my friend who takes up to six sessions for a change to appear? Apparently I’m more skilled. And I know what makes the difference. It’s the NLP. Neuro-Linguistic Programming (my specialty) is what makes the difference. It has been called “hypnosis on steroids.” It’s faster than traditional hypnosis. More powerful. It’s the BIG GUNS in my arsenal for your strategic change.
I enjoy being a military strategist. Every day is different, and every person is different, and I get to use my creativity and fire off the big guns. Yay! Take that smoking! Blam! Take that, overweight! Blam! Take that, fear! Blam! A talk therapist will not take the stronghold. A hypnotist reading a script at you will not take the stronghold. I can. Let’s do it.
Warm Regards,
Connie
Fear is Gone and the Extra Pounds are Going.
Hi, Hypno-Friends.
Hypnosis is good for so many things, here’s an abbreviated list:
- agoraphobia
- anxiety/anxiety state
- confidence boosting
- depression
- embarrassment
- emotional pain/guilt
- exam nerves
- fear of flying
- insomnia
- interview nerves
- migraine
- motivation
- memory and learning
- nail and finger biting
- nervous problems
- nightmares
- panic state, panic attacks
- pain control
- performance anxiety
- phobias (all kinds)
- public speaking
- relationship problems
- shyness
- smoking
- social anxiety
- sports performance
- stage fright
- stress and related problems
- weight loss
Sometimes a client will ask for my help with more than one issue. One nice thing about how easy change is, it builds on itself. Change one thing for the better and other positive changes begin rolling. Here is a testimonial/business review I received today:
“I cannot thank Connie enough for the amazing Life Changing experience! I have sufferred from both a fear of heights and an ongoing, 50 year weight management problem. I have paid thousands of dollars to “talk” therapists, and emerged with some idea of why I had these problems, but NO idea of how to utilize that knowledge. In 3 sessions with Connie, who was extremely sensitive to my issues, I can now proudly say “Bring on your heights” and I have been losing between 15 and 20 effortless, happy pounds a month. My Life has totally changed for the better. Folks don’t even recognize me from the back! She is a REAL LIVE miracle worker. GG”
Yay!!
I love success stories. Is it time for yours to begin?
Wam Regards,
Connie

If you’re in the Seattle area, you’re close enough to get in on this! It’s not just information, it’s DOING. I guide the whole group into a wonderful trance and lead them through a change process of goal setting and manifestation. It’s cool. It’s ingenious. It’s something I’ve created that I use one-on-one with my clients for their life goals, and it’s POWERFUL. It works!
And, notice the amazingly low, low cost of just $39 for the evening’s trance experience. Bellevue College set that price, not me. I think what I’m offering is beyond price. Judge for yourself. Join me. The sign up link (you must sign up through Bellevue College) is here:

Spring has Sprung!
Happy first week of spring! I like the heavily transitional seasons best, fall, and spring. Where things change. Big time! We’ve got TREES here in the Pacific Northwest, and that’s terrific. Boy, did I miss them when I lived elsewhere in the country. I lived in the desert for years (Arizona), and there was a dearth of trees. Cactus don’t count! Coming home to Seattle was such a refreshing and green experience! Yay, Seattle! 🙂
Fall and spring. Trees tell the story. Fall is the time of letting go, which the trees manage in abundance and with ease. And now it’s spring! It is the further development of that process, the healthy fresh new life that comes as a result. My neighborhood is rich with pink blooming trees right now. Cherry blossoms, I believe. Beautiful! Beautiful! Beautiful! Where’s my camera?
If you’re ready for some fresh, healthy new spring in your life, there’s a way to do that! It’s called…hypnosis. Let’s grow you something alive and beautiful. Something happy and bright. Look around you. It’s time!
Warm Regards,
Connie
NLP Explained – What is Neuro-Linguistic Programming and how will it help me change my life? (Easily!)
Here’s another video! (I’m just a video makin’ machine today!!) 🙂

NLP is a conversational, high-tech hypnosis…the most powerful change tool on earth. It’s also been called “hypnosis on steroids.” Absolutely. This is the primary thing which has reshaped by body (minus 75+ pounds) and my life. Do you think I’d have been comfortable and confident enough before NLP to make a video such as the above and chat to the world? No way, Jose. Do you think I’d be running my own businesses? Perhaps, but I doubt as successfully.
NLP is a set of tools for life success. This is what sets me above other hypnotherapists’ level of success–my NLP. There are Practitioners of NLP, there are Master Practitioners of NLP, and beyond that level of skill, there are Trainers of NLP. I’m a Licensed Trainer of NLP ™. And, when you come to my office, what you’re going to receive is neuro-linguistic hypnotherapy. In my estimation, the power of this blend and the postive changes achieved through this exceeds anything else I’ve ever heard of or experienced on earth. I’d love it if you’d let me prove it to you.
Warm Regards,
Connie

Just in Time for Valentine’s: Feel the Love, or…Effective Relating
Hi, Hypno-Friends!
I want to share something personal, and wonderful. A milestone. Michael and I have been married 25 years this month! To celebrate, we took an extended weekend getaway, to Las Vegas, just the two of us! And we renewed our vows to each other–signing up for the NEXT 25 years of happy love! 🙂 I do! We did!
Here are some pictures from our Vegas adventure. I’ve always wanted a Las Vegas Wedding, so this trip, we did it. We found a chapel, and we did it! For fun, we dressed up glittery, me in sequins, and Michael in velvet, and we found an “Elvis” to sing and officiate. It was SO MUCH FUN!!
- 25th Wedding Anniversary
Love is very much a reason to celebrate. Committed, ongoing, growing love…even more so. Everyone we met kept repeating “25 years! Wow!! That’s amazing!! What’s your secret?”
I’ll tell you!
Successful relationships are all about relating (an action verb, not a stagnant THING, but a continuing evolution), and communicating. Effectively! Communicating what you want in a way that moves you towards your outcomes. And maintaining appropriate emotional states which support those communications and outcomes, as well. (In a significant-other context, it’s remembering and re-connecting with why you’re together and in love.) Lots of people have trouble in this area, apparently.
Well, guess what? Hypnosis works, for this as well as for so many other things. A good relationship, be it professional or personal, group-sized social interactions, or intimacy, it’s not luck. It’s learning, and it’s choice. I help people in their relating, all the time, helping with everything from sexual intimacy issues to anger to insecurity and more. How do you want to be, how do you want to feel, how do you want to relate differently than what may be the present state of affairs?
I can help. NLP and hypnosis are excellent tools for this.
This is kind of like my weight loss success story. I walk the talk. I know what makes a successful, fulfilling relationship. I’m living it! I wouldn’t trust a therapist or counselor who has been 2-times divorced and couldn’t develop or maintain a loving, long-term relationship to save their life. You want THAT to guide you for healthy relating? I wouldn’t. Pick someone who is successful, and happy. Someone who lives love and doesn’t secretly sneer at it as a pipe dream, and can help you craft yourself into effective relating states. I know how. Belief, and success, I’ve got both. So can you.
If you’d like help with relating, call me (425) 564-8608. What a wonderful Valentine’s gift for you and your sweetie.
Warm Regards,
Connie

New Year’s Resolve
- Happy 2011 To You!
Happy New Year! Are you making some wonderful New Year’s Resolutions for 2011 for your health and success and prosperity? I am!
Yes, I’ve been thinking about New Year’s Resolutions. And the word “resolve.” What does it really mean? If you’re sort of wanting something, thinking about it, but doing little or nothing to achieve it, that equals a lack of resolve. “Gee, that would be nice someday, but…” If you’re half-heartedly doing something towards a goal for only a day or two or three and then the desire drifts away, that’s a wishy-washy resolve. Like a slap with a wet noodle–not much power in it. I believe that half-hearted determination is what most people bring to their New Year’s Resolve. And that’s sad.
However, it doesn’t have to be that way!! 🙂 If weak resolve is not good enough for you, read on! Hypnosis helps you create something absolutely different. Hypnosis reaches into your inner workings and finds, reinforces and activates true resolve. True resolve is a whole-hearted affair. Heart and mind and body affair–every nerve and fiber of your being saying: “YES, I’m going for it!!!” Resolve and determination…think Rocky preparing for his big fight, eating raw eggs, and working out, running up those monument steps, triumphant (in advance) and focusing all his attention and actions on achieving his goal.
That’s real resolve. It’s power, because you KNOW you’re going to get what you want and nothing and no one can deter you. You do everything within your power and energy and creativity, with passion and motivation, to achieve it, that worthy outcome you desire.
Resolve is also a visual term. When things come into focus, they resolve. The blur resolves into a clear image. When you resolve to do something, your goal is FOCUSED. Sharp, sharp, sharp. Clear. Unmistakable. How would you like to be sharply focused and motivated and moving on your goals with true resolve? Yes, me, too.
Hypnosis, baby! If your New Year’s desires already have the force of a pure and clear RESOLUTION, yay! I applaud you! Go for it. However, if you find that clarity of desire unfocused, or the resolve is not there to give you that OOMPH, that go for it power of actual sustained movement forward, then hypnosis is a tool to help you do just that.
It doesn’t matter WHAT you are resolving to do, hypnosis can give you that directed focus and acceleration, like stepping on the gas pedal in your car. You select the destination, hypnosis is both the GPS (how to get there) and the thrust forward of stepping on the gas. Resolve. Rocky was hypnotized. He hypnotized himself into power. We are all capable of this, but it’s a heck of a lot easier to have a professional communicator help it to happen faster and more easily.
Personally, I think it would be a massively wonderful gift to give yourself for the new year: a super powerful hypnotic dose of accelerant for your goals, whatever they may be. Quitting tobacco once and for all, getting in shape, finishing that project, beginning that project, whatever you’re resolving within yourself to do and be for 2011 and beyond. The difference: with hypnosis, the resolve STICKS, long and strong enough to get what you want. How cool is that?
Resolve to make 2011 your best year ever, and begin to realize the control you do have over your life. Over your actions, your habits, your very thoughts.
Warmest Regards,
Connie
