Kindness and compassion

When Thomas Edison was asked about how he felt about his failures, before finally inventing the light bulb, he replied, ‘I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.’

Exploring what works and doesn’t work is part of being human. I believe we are here to learn through experiencing duality and this always includes emotion. For example, how could you truly know what you want if you haven’t also experienced what it is you don’t want?  Along the way mistakes may be made as different paths are explored. Be patient with yourself. Learn from mistakes and move on!

Since few people would claim to be perfect, it seems unnecessary to pretend that we never make mistakes. Greeting mistakes and imperfections with kindness and compassion provides more nurturing conditions for growth. When you feel broken on the inside, give yourself some time to discover what you need to heal. And ask for help or support, if you feel stuck.

If you find you are making the same mistakes over and over again then hypnotherapy may be beneficial as we can use the emotions you are experiencing to determine the origin of the pattern you are wanting to break. Once discovered you may process and move forward in your life positively.

Pain management and the Mind-Body Connection

We are never disconnected at the neck!

Whatever happens in our minds- emotions, thought processes, perceptions, the five senses- is always reflected in our bodies. And, in the same way, what happens in our bodies is reflected and recorded in our minds. Some of the most important of these happenings have to do with pain- be it emotional, psychological or physical.

The very nature of hypnosis and self-hypnosis is helpful in coping with pain. Why? It is the opposite of being in a pain state. How can hypnosis help with pain?

• Promotes relaxation

• Changes your sense of pain

• Distraction may help you focus on comfortable parts of your body

Self-hypnosis is easier to learn after you yourself have experienced hypnosis a few times. Kristine can teach you this! And learning and practicing self-hypnosis will put you back in charge of your experience!

Kristine offers her clients a variety of mind body options, including both outside resources, such as guided meditations and hypnosis audios and will engage your inner resources, to start changing the way you have been doing things up to this moment. So, rather than repeating those day to day patterns as you may have been in the past, she will offer you some ideas to build on, to investigate so you can notice how things begin to change moving forward. .

Pain may be mandatory, if you have a chronic illness or physical tissue damage, but suffering is optional.

Dealing with Times of Uncertainty

While watching the news unfold surrounding this coronavirus pandemic you may feel like the entire situation is out of your control. While the science world is preparing a vaccine what can you do? How might you respond in a way that will benefit you?

When it comes to how you respond to this virus or perhaps other situations in which you may find yourself- for example– a situation where your body is battling or recovering from a disease, or maybe your body has inflammation that is causing your physical pain. In any of these situations there are many things you can do- that are in your control. And one of these is having a lifestyle strategy..

Whether it be a virus, disease or physical pain- consider your lifestyle strategy.

Your personal care routine!

How are you managing your stress?

How about hypnosis? How might it be beneficial for you?

Hypnosis may provide you with an option for well-being.

Consider a session where you get comfortable and I lead you into a relaxing trance… you become more aware of your breath, taking slow deep breaths- really resetting your nervous system (if you may be feeling anxious),  next progressive relaxation helps with relaxing and releasing any stress or tension you may be holding in your muscles. I may then use suggestion to direct healing and restorative energy into any areas in your body that are of concern, perhaps visualizing strengthening your immune system or healing a particular area, and let’s not forget sleep as I include some suggestions for a wonderful slumber. Or perhaps, I guide you back to a time when you felt a certain way- for example, a time when you felt confident, healthy and well, on top of the world- and we then bring those wonderful feelings forward…

There are so many ways that hypnosis can be explored to help you physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually – just so many ways on so many levels.

A session can also be recorded so you have a resource audio that you can use anytime !

Remember you have options in helping to maintain or restore your health. Perhaps it’s time to take a few minutes for yourself and establish a personal care routine, and you might consider exploring hypnosis for even more positive change.

With hypnosis, there are no negative side effects and no drugs involved. The process is natural as you are using one of your most powerful resources- your mind!

It starts with You!

“Owning our story and loving ourselves through that process is the bravest thing that we’ll ever do.”
– Brené Brown

For many self-love may be a hard one!

Self- love is the forgiveness, acceptance and respect for who you are deep down inside- and this includes all your beautiful parts as well as whatever you might consider your hideous parts!

And, when you love yourself, you take care of yourself, you honor your limitations, you listen to your needs and you respect your dreams enough to act on them.

Self-love isn’t selfish (as many might at first consider). You know when you are able to genuinely love and accept yourself, you are able to love and accept others much more fully.

Consider a tea cup. Now consider that tea cup empty. How can an empty tea cup be used to quench the thirst of another? It is impossible. Likewise, it is impossible for us to give love if we haven’t first filled ourselves. Simple.

Anxiety

Anxiety- Is it controlling YOUR LIFE?

Have you been feeling stressed a lot lately? Perhaps your energy levels are feeling depleted or maybe you aren’t digesting foods as easily. You may be experiencing difficulties thinking logically or maybe you seem to be taking off more sick days than ever before?

Did you know that for every thought or emotion you have, there is a corresponding chemical and physiological response in your body?

It’s true.

Whether your thought or emotion is real, or only perceived, your mind and body will respond regardless. Consider your nervous system as being much like a communication system. Your nervous system will take in a message, interpret it and determine what will go on in your body, as a result of that message.

Adrenaline is one of the many chemicals released during stress and is commonly known as the Fight or Flight hormone. If a stressful situation presents itself your adrenaline release is a normal function of your body’s defense mechanism as part of your autonomic nervous system.

However, when you spend a great deal of your time being stressed out, feeling anxious, the chemical balance in your body is compromised as your body’s energy is being depleted. Next, the chemicals in your body become out of balance and your immune system may begin to break down, often resulting in illness or disease. Your brain is affected as well as you may find yourself not able to think clearly. This may lead to adrenal fatigue or other ailments.

The good news is that you can reset your autonomic nervous system be resetting your brain! You can learn positive coping mechanisms including specific breathing methods and a variety of exercises. Hypnotherapy is useful in updating those less desirable responses using your own positive resources.

The result?

You will find that as each day passes you will feel better and better, freer, lighter and happier. And, in the process, you will have taken control of your brain, your thoughts and your actions!

If you are ready for change contact me, and let’s work together so that you can start living your life feeling better and better, lighter and happier.

Are you ready for change?

Free Yourself!

Stop giving away your power by looking externally to blame and start searching inward for solutions.

Please consider the difference between fault and responsibility.

It really doesn’t matter who’s fault it is that something is broken if it is your responsibility to fix it. So, if your parents, or someone else you were close with exposed you to trauma it is definitely not your fault! But, it is now your responsibility to learn how to move past that trauma and try to do your best to overcome the trauma to build a happy life for yourself.

If you are instead waiting for someone to apologize, to suffer and be punished and made to fix it, please understand that more often than not, that just isn’t how it works. You are holding yourself back by waiting for something to happen. By moving through and overcoming the trauma, pain etc., by building a happier life for yourself you will find liberation, releasing all that no longer serves you so that you can instead invite more positive into your life!

Don’t wait for someone else to fix you. Liberate yourself!

You have the power within within you.

Path of Discovery

Have you ever noticed how sometimes the uncomfortable things that happen in our lives place us directly on the path to the best things that will ever happen to us?

Is there a reoccurring pattern in your life that just isn't working for you? Reoccurring patterns may be the result of a mental block. Mental blocks can be formed for many reasons and can affect your life physically, mentally, emotionally or spiritually.

Are you ready for a change?

Hypnotherapy is a useful tool in removing mental blocks. I will work with you to access your memories, using hypnosis, to revisit the very origin of your mental block. We can then review the scene and put things into proper perspective. The result- you bring along the improved, updated beliefs on your improved path moving forward!
