Then Hypnotherapy with Jackie is right for you:
A passionate advocate for self-care as well as a skilled educator, Jackie loves empowering you to cultivate positive change in your life. With a deep sense of reverence, she assists you in uncovering the mysteries, illusions, and challenges you encounter on your path toward better health and greater awareness.
Your work with Jackie begins in her softly colored studio where she completes a thorough assessment, allowing her to fully understand your unique issues. She then will educate you on how hypnosis works and make sure you feel comfortable and safe. Then she will guide you into a state of deep relaxation. This state of deep relaxation allows you to go into a focused concentrated state, similar to being absorbed in a good movie or a good book. This deep state of relaxation allows your subconscious mind to emerge, which is where you can uncover limited beliefs and outmoded patterns and behaviors that no longer serve you, replacing them with healthier ones that support your process. After returning to a fully alert state, Jackie will teach you self-hypnosis and possibly suggest other personal rituals for your continued growth.
Your sessions may yield:
- Elevated mood, lower blood pressure, clearer thinking, and a general feeling of well being.
- Freedom from addicting habits, more energy, greater lung capacity, and an enormous feeling of accomplishment.
- The ability to move forward with great confidence toward new goals and dreams.
- Techniques to help you relax during health care procedures.
- The expectation of a beautiful, calm and joyful birthing experience, as well as various visualization and deep breathing techniques to help birth your baby comfortably, just as nature intended.
- The desire to nurture yourself with healthy foods, exercise, and a positive self image.
The science behind Hypnotherapy:
Scientists know that our brain is divided into two parts (a left and a right hemisphere). The left brain is generally home to the conscious or "outer" mind, while the right brain is home to the subconscious or "inner" mind. The left brain/conscious mind is logically based, likes numbers and letters, processes information in a linear manner, is analytical and critical. The right brain/subconscious is emotionally based, is home to our creativity, imagination, our instincts and habits. Hypnosis is a natural concentrated focused state. During hypnosis the conscious mind is quieted and the subconscious mind is engaged. Since the conscious mind is not interfering with its "reasons," doubts and analyzing, the creativity, imagination and non-linear aspects of the subconscious mind allows for the exploration, discovery and change of beliefs, patterns and behaviors to take place. It is here in the subconscious, the right brain, where change occurs.
Testimonials
"In preparing for the birth of my second child, I found hypnosis to be invaluable! I was able to remain calm, relaxed, and in control throughout my labor and never required medication. I was most impressed with the breathing techniques and believe it shortened the pushing time dramatically."
Susan Street, Issaquah, WA
"HypnoBirthing(R) techniques that Jackie teaches allowed me to give birth without any medications. I felt really happy about how everything went and I'm a more confident person now. It was very empowering. In these days, when a woman's ability to give birth naturally is so often doubted, HypnoBirthing(R) allowed me to believe otherwise. The relaxation exercises also helped me sleep better during my pregnancy and have helped me in nursing my baby."
Gizela Brown, Redmond, WA
"I have one more pound until I reach my goal weight and I'm so pleased with hypnosis. It really gave me the added support I needed to lose the weight. What I liked most is that my emotions don't control my eating anymore. I'm able to say "no" with little effort - and I don't want the junk and sugar anymore. The relaxation is my treat and reward!"
Emily Baxter, Seattle, WA
