Life coaching is an amazingly effective process that
helps people to make positive changes in their lives. Coaching works with the conscious mind (the logical, analytical, thinking
mind) to identify goals, set intentions, and commit to inspired action steps. This process creates lasting change. The
results are profound and life-changing.
Life
coaching also involves identifying potential obstacles to change. Most often, these obstacles are no more than negative thoughts
and limiting beliefs. Therefore, by eliminating or altering these thoughts and perceptions, clients achieve their desired
results and the process is faster, easier, and requires far less effort. Sounds simple, right?
In many ways, change is simple. However, how many times have you heard of
people who make wonderful, positive changes in their lives, but end up right back where they started? This is all too common
of an occurrence.
That's where hypnosis comes
in. Hypnosis helps people make lasting change by allowing both the conscious and the subconscious mind to work together. The
subconscious mind is the emotional, reflexive, feeling mind that is filled with long term thoughts, memories, and beliefs.
Whereas the conscious mind is associated with willpower, the subconscious mind is the source of strong motivation. Although
the subconscious mind is benevolent and always works for what is believed to be your highest good, it is the literal mind
that sticks with the thoughts, feelings, and ideas that have been implanted over the years. These may be the thoughts,
feelings, and ideas that no longer serve you in the present and may actually be obstacles to positive change.
So, hypnosis is a state of deep relaxation that allows the subconscious mind to take
in the new thoughts, feelings, ideas, and beliefs that reflect the way you want your life to be. Whereas meditation seeks
to quiet the mind, hypnosis directs the mind. Hypnosis is a tool that can help you to achieve the success that you
deserve.
For those who wish to go beyond the use
of hypnosis for making positive change, hypnotherapy sessions are also available to help clients identify and move past the
root causes for certain behaviors and to experience emotional healing as well. As always, the choice is yours.
As you can see, hypnosis is the perfect complement to life coaching in so many ways.
Some of the most common uses for hypnosis are closely aligned with clients' wellness goals such as weight loss, to stop smoking,
and manage stress. Mary Ellen specializes in helping people to change the things they can with regard to living a healthy
lifestyle. However, these are just some of the ways that hypnosis can help.
Hypnosis is also an effective method for childbirth preparation, fertility issues, pain
management, preparing for surgery or other medical or dental procedures, alleviating unwanted fear, increasing self-esteem
and motivation, improving sleep, enhancing creativity, accelerating learning and sharpening memory, improving athletic performance
(especially golf), choosing to stop drinking or using drugs, manifesting prosperity, improving relationships (including your
sex life), and the list goes on! Individual sessions are designed to meet your needs.
