ABOUT THE TRAINING:

This is not your “typical” hypnosis or hypnotherapy training. This is life-changing work where we go straight to the root of the issue and heal it at the source – the place in which it was created. This hypnotherapy works with all aspects of the self for deep healing: mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual. This is a highly experiential hypnotherapy training designed for those in the health, helping, and healing industries who would like to learn the amazing tool of transpersonal hypnotherapy to work with their clients on a much deeper level.

Working with the subconscious mind is much more effective at making lasting changes, compared to trying to make changes with the conscious mind only. The subconscious mind is exponentially more powerful than the conscious mind, which is why it is so HARD to make changes from the conscious mind. The conscious mind is almost fighting against the subconscious mind and the self-limiting beliefs that are so deeply wired within. Think: Swimming upstream against a very strong current.

This training is a full immersion program where participants will learn first-hand the techniques of transpersonal hypnotherapy by doing hands-on, deep-dive sessions of their own, with colleagues in a small group setting. This is an amazing opportunity to learn a very healing modality to work with clients/patients (and for the healers themselves). Many practitioners who undergo this type of hypnotherapy training experience their own personal transformation.

This program is designed for those who want to also do their own inner work, in order to better assist their clients/patients with their inner work. Think: Heal the healers.

After all, we can only take others as deeply as we have met and healed ourselves.

ABOUT TRANSPERSONAL & TRAUMA HEALING HYPNOTHERPY:

Transpersonal & Trauma Healing Hypnotherapy (TTHH) is a therapeutic modality that is helpful for healing and overcoming certain issues that show up in our lives that may be linked to past traumatic experiences. Often, this link goes back to childhood where traumatic experiences “wired in” certain psychological and physiological reactions and responses for survival, along with subsequent negative beliefs, behaviors, and patterns, also for survival. As adults, these same patterns that once “saved us” (e.g., dissociating, isolating, fighting, fleeing, freezing) can now hinder us in our everyday lives and relationships. 

TTHH may help with anxiety, depression, addictions (e.g., food, drugs, alcohol, shopping, social media), self-sabotaging behaviors, unresolved grief, shame, trauma, physical ailments, and so much more. More and more research is coming out about the effectiveness of hypnosis and hypnotherapy for many different physical, mental, and emotional issues. 

Hypnosis, Hypnotherapy, and Transpersonal & Trauma Healing Hypnotherapy: What’s the Difference?

Hypnosis is a form of narrowed focused attention, in which deeper states of consciousness are reached, often dipping into the subconscious mind, and thus slower brainwaves – often theta brainwaves. The subconscious mind is where everything is stored such as: memories, emotions, traumas, underlying beliefs, habits, etc. From this state, it is often easier for a person to see certain patterns or issues and to shift them within themselves, rather than just analyzing things over and over in the cognitive, conscious mind. It is important to note that this “hypnotic” state is a natural state that humans experience throughout life spontaneously. For instance, when one is daydreaming, in deep contemplation, or reminiscing, this is a trance-like, meditative, or hypnotic state. Another example is when we are engrossed in a book or a movie and everything else seems to fall into the periphery and time escapes us. These are examples of a trance or hypnotic state. Another example is when we have “highway hypnosis” or when we are driving and we remember nothing about the drive itself or the turns taken, but we still end up where we were going. In that example, our conscious mind was somewhere else and our subconscious mind was driving the car. Hypnosis is invoking these natural states on purpose, in a therapeutic manner, in order to “go deeper within” and heal any unresolved issues that are stored in the subconscious mind and in the body. 

Hypnotherapy is the use of hypnosis to assist with certain issues that arise in a person’s life.

Transpersonal & Trauma Healing Hypnotherapy is a specialized type of hypnotherapy that was developed by Liz Burkholder, NP. It was created specifically to help process and resolve trauma in a safe and therapeutic environment. Its framework draws from and builds upon many other modalities, therapies, and practices such as clinical hypnosis, transpersonal hypnotherapy, Heart-Centered Hypnotherapy, meditation, mindfulness, guided imagery, emotional release techniques, somatic release techniques, breathing techniques, polyvagal theory, nervous system regulation, neuroscience, neuropsychology, inner child work, ego parts therapy, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), subtle energy work, chakra work, yogic practices, trauma focused yoga, Jungian psychology, etc.

*Heart-Centered Hypnotherapy is a type of hypnotherapy that was developed in the 1990s by psychotherapists Diane Zimberoff and husband, David Hartman, both founders of The Wellness Institute in Seattle, WA.
