The Healing Hypnosis: Empowering the Mind to Conquer Trauma through Hypnotherapy Training

Life is an extraordinary voyage filled with experiences that shape our character and define our journey. Some experiences are brimming with joy, while others cast long shadows of trauma that reverberate within the confines of our minds. Trauma, in particular, is an overwhelming distress that challenges the human spirit, yet, amidst these trials, we are gifted with the resilience to heal, and hypnotherapy is a beacon guiding us towards this healing process.

Hypnotherapy, the transformative practice that delves into the subconscious to heal deeply rooted wounds, is a significant tool in trauma therapy. Particularly, for those grappling with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), hypnotherapy offers a unique path towards healing.

PTSD is a distressing mental health condition that manifests after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. People living with PTSD often find themselves in a recurring loop of disturbing thoughts, anxiety, nightmares, and even flashbacks of the event. Traditional therapies and medications offer relief for many, but for some, these methods aren’t enough. It’s in these instances where hypnotherapy presents itself as a powerful and innovative solution.

But how does hypnotherapy accomplish this? The key lies within its capacity to tap into the subconscious mind. The subconscious is a repository of our emotions, memories, and experiences. Hypnotherapy gives us a ‘golden key’ to access this part of our mind, allowing us to unearth the trauma’s roots and address it directly.

Hypnotherapy for trauma and PTSD helps the individual to safely revisit the traumatic incident in a controlled environment, detaching the emotional response from the traumatic memory. This practice can significantly reduce the severity of PTSD symptoms, with patients often reporting an increased sense of control, improved sleep, and overall enhanced quality of life.

But healing trauma through hypnotherapy is not just about technique – it’s also about the relationship between the hypnotherapist and the client. In our hypnotherapy training, we emphasize the importance of empathy, trust, and rapport. As hypnotherapists, we are not just professionals executing a procedure; we are compassionate guides helping individuals to navigate the maze of their subconscious, to find the path towards healing.

If you’re considering becoming a hypnotherapist, know that you’re choosing more than just a career – you’re opting to become a catalyst for change in people’s lives. Our hypnotherapy training equips you not only with the technical skills but also the interpersonal abilities that distinguish a good hypnotherapist. You’ll learn how to foster a safe, understanding environment where clients feel valued, heard, and empowered to overcome their past.

This journey of becoming a hypnotherapist is a transformative one. As you learn to facilitate healing in others, you’ll also find personal growth and an expanded understanding of the human mind and its incredible capacity to recover. Trauma might cast a long shadow, but through hypnotherapy, we can illuminate the path to healing, offering hope to those living in the shadow of their past.

Hypnotherapy is a powerful, transformative tool. By exploring its depths, we can unearth deeply rooted pain and replace it with the seed of healing and growth. And through the process, we not only better ourselves but also contribute to a world that fosters understanding, compassion, and mental well-being.

So join us on this journey of understanding the mind and healing the soul. Become part of the solution and witness the transformation that hypnotherapy can bring to people’s lives. As you move forward in your training, remember: your journey as a hypnotherapist is not just about navigating the depths of the human mind – it’s about surfacing as a beacon of hope and light in someone else’s world.

As a hypnotherapist, you will have the power to recalibrate the mind, altering harmful patterns and replacing them with positive, empowering ones. You’ll learn to use powerful techniques like visualization and suggestion to help clients conquer their fears, increase their self-esteem, and regain control over their lives. Your work will be the difference between being shackled by past traumas and liberating oneself to live a fuller, more rewarding life.

Our hypnotherapy training includes a diverse range of modules, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the human psyche. It prepares you to help your clients safely traverse the depths of their subconscious and confront, accept, and release their traumatic experiences. Our course includes trauma-informed approaches that will give you the knowledge and confidence to handle sensitive cases with the empathy and respect they warrant.

We also emphasize the importance of self-care in our training. As a hypnotherapist, you will be shouldering heavy emotional burdens. It’s crucial to prioritize your mental health, create boundaries, and replenish your own emotional reservoir to remain effective and compassionate in your work.

The beauty of hypnotherapy lies in its transformative potential. Like a sculptor chiseling a block of marble, you will be chipping away at the walls of trauma, unveiling the true masterpiece within – the empowered, resilient individual capable of overcoming their past and embracing their future. You’ll be providing an invaluable service, giving people the tools they need to not only cope with their trauma but to thrive in spite of it.

So, let’s embark on this incredible journey together. With our comprehensive hypnotherapy training, we will guide you through the intricacies of the human mind and heart. With each step, you will gain more understanding, more knowledge, and more confidence to guide your clients from the shadows of their trauma into the light of healing.

As a hypnotherapist, your work can change lives. And, as we help each other navigate the complexities of trauma and healing, we can make a profound difference in the world. Let’s make the journey of healing accessible to all, one mind at a time.

After all, hypnotherapy is not just about reaching into the subconscious; it’s about enabling individuals to reclaim their narratives, author their journey, and create their masterpiece. Join us in this endeavor, and let’s make a difference together.

Hypnotherapy for Weight Loss

Hypnotherapy for Weight Loss

Do you find yourself eating when you are stressed?

Do you ever get bored and decide it’s time to eat?

Does your nighttime snacking have a mind of its own?

This could be a case of emotional eating.

What is emotional eating?

It is eating to feed your emotions vs. your body. It is sometimes known as stress eating because many emotional eaters eat in response to stress (though stress is not the only trigger – happiness, sadness, among other emotions can be triggers too).

Emotional eating is the result of an unhealthy relationship with food. Instead of seeing food as what it is, something you consume for survival (like air and water), you misconstrue it into something else. You become attached to it, give it emotions, personify it, and make it out to be something it isn’t. Sometimes food is love. Sometimes food is a pain killer. Sometimes food is entertainment.

Binge eating is an aggravated form of emotional eating. It happens when (1) the original emotional eating issue is not addressed (2) the triggers for emotional eating are aggravated, leading to an increased need to eat to feed the emotion(s).

Given time, an emotional eater switches from merely eating in response to emotions, to massively overeating in response to emotions, since they are unable to get relief from their original consumption. While not always the case, compulsive overeating often comes with poor body image and low self-esteem.

Emotional eating is more prevalent than you might think. Believe it or not, nearly 2.5 million adults in the United States today suffer from compulsive overeating, with probably many more unreported cases. Because of how our society has wrapped itself around food, almost all of us have a skewed relationship with food, whether we acknowledge it or not.

12 Signs of Emotional Eating

There are many kinds of emotional eaters – some eat in response to a negative emotion, while some eat in response to a positive emotion. Below are 12 signs of emotional eating:

You eat when you are stressed. When you have things to do (work/studies/exams), you reach out for food subconsciously. Especially when you’re up late at night and by yourself, though it can happen in the day and in front of others too.

You eat as a response to your emotions. You eat when you feel sad / annoyed / disappointed / angry / lonely/ empty / anxious/ tired / bored. It’s a reaction so subconsciously embedded that you don’t even think about it. You just automatically reach out for food whenever you experience those emotions.

You seek solace in food. When you feel down, you seek out “comfort food”. You bury yourself in food like ice cream, cake, chocolate, and cookies, even though they are absolute junk and have zero nutritional value. For some reason, you can’t quite explain, they provide you with comfort.

You have trouble losing weight (due to the way you eat). Even though you want to lose weight and you know the technicalities behind losing weight such as the foods and quantities you should eat, you have trouble sticking to your diet. You can’t seem to stop yourself from eating as and when you want to.

Your eating is out of control (You can’t stop eating). You eat even when you are not hungry, and you continue to eat even when you should have stopped long ago. Your desire to eat seems to have taken a life of its own. At times you would even go out of the way just to get food or to satisfy a particular craving, even though you may not be hungry at all.

You eat to feel happy. You are emotionally dependent on food, relying on it for happiness. You derive positive emotions from eating, even though it’s nothing more than a neutral activity to help you live, just like breathing, drinking water, and passing waste. Note this is entirely different from appreciating food as you eat it, which I’m all for. This is about eating specifically to derive the feeling of happiness, which creates a lopsided relationship.

You eat when you feel happy. You see eating is a necessary companion to happy emotions, just like how people eat to celebrate good news.

You are fascinated with eating/food. You love food. You love to eat. When you’re not eating, you can’t help but think about food. You long and crave for it. When you’re eating, it’s like you’re in a wonderland. Eating and food draw an intense level of interest from you. Interestingly, none of your fascinations is reciprocated by food or eating.

You use emotionally-charged words to describe food/eating, like “sinful”, “decadent”, “guilt-ridden”, “love”, “lust”, “indulgent”, “enticing”, “craving”, “tempting”, etc, even though food is a non-living thing, incapable of feelings nor returning your love/hate.

You eat even though you are rightfully full. No matter how much you eat, no matter how full you feel, you never feel quite satisfied. Whatever satisfaction you get from eating is momentary, and you return to eating after a while to recapture that emotion.

You think of eating even though you are rightfully full. Even after you’ve had your fill, you continue to think of food. You think about what to eat for the next meal right after you’ve finished eating. You obsess about X, Y, Z food, and when you can eat it. You can’t wait till it’s time to eat again. You think about how satisfied you’ll be when you finally get to eat. You count down to the next mealtime.

You have random food cravings out of the blue. Sometimes, you get urges to eat a certain food, which you can’t explain yourself. And it’s not even that you’re hungry. It’s just a craving which you must satisfy, else you’ll feel unhappy for the day.

Past Life Regression and Healing Generational Trauma

Past Life Regression Therapy and Healing Generational Trauma

Many things get passed down from family to family. Things like inheritances and family heirlooms, genes and genetic conditions, physical characteristics, and in some cases trauma.

Generational trauma is trauma that isn’t just experienced by one person but extends from one generation to the next. “It can be silent, covert, and undefined, surfacing through nuances and inadvertently taught or implied throughout someone’s life from an early age onward.”

Everyone is susceptible to generational trauma. The symptoms of generational trauma may include:

Hypervigilance
A sense of a shortened future
Mistrust
Aloofness
High anxiety
Depression
Panic attacks
Nightmares
Insomnia
A sensitive fight or flight response
Issues with self-esteem and self-confidence

“We know trauma can manifest itself through stress, anxiety, fight or flight, and other heightened alert systems in our brain and bodies, but intergenerational trauma can also mask itself through learned beliefs, behaviors, and patterns that become ingrained. This kind of wiring impacts personalities, relationships, parenting, communication, and views of the world.”

Children Can Be Affected by Traumatic Events Experienced by Their Parents

Multiple studies have found that children of Holocaust survivors are prone to worry, guilt and hypervigilance. Compared to others, they are more likely to assume the worst when something negative happens. They also frequently experience anxiety and nightmares.

Other studies have found similar symptoms in children of Vietnam war veterans. These symptoms often persist through adulthood.

Your Grandmother’s Exposure to Stress May Affect Your Weight

The Netherlands experienced a brutal and widespread famine in the winter of 1944. Later studies found that the grandchildren of women who survived the famine were more likely to be obese than would be expected. Further research found that the grandchildren of women who were pregnant that winter were most likely to be obese. Researchers suspect that the women’s starvation experience somehow altered the biological makeup of their children, while the children were still in the womb. These changes were then passed on to their offspring.

How Can Past Life Regression Help Heal Ancestral Trauma?

Generational trauma, also known as intergenerational or ancestral trauma can go back one, two, fourteen generations or more. So we need to go back to the source of where it began. When did the client “inherit” the generational trauma? Was it during childhood? Or does the source of this ancestral trauma go way, way back?

During Past Life Regression therapy the client is able to experience the most relevant past life connected with the generational trauma. It is here that both Past Life Regression Therapist and client alike can discover together the contracts, agreements, vows, and yes, even trauma that they brought into this lifetime. It’s this moment in the Past Life Regression session that we bring healing to and break the agreement to continue in the ancestral trauma of suffering, bondage, abuse, pain, and addictions.

Bring more ancestral healing work to your private practice, your clients, and the world with Past Life Regression Training and Certification program. Save $400 when your register here.

Inheriting ancestral trauma doesn’t mean you’re stuck with it. The good news is that there are ways to “undo” the trauma of the past. If you feel weighed down by traumatic events in your family’s past, Past Life Regression therapy can help you.
