Nutrition and good health are not just consuming healthy foods and drinks. It is when we eat, our moods, our thoughts, our environment, our attitudes about ourselves, the stress in our lives, how much exercise we get, how well we eliminate wastes and toxins and breathing consciously. To create health and wellbeing, we must make conscious choices to achieve that goal in our daily lives.

In my work, a person's appearance, particularly the physical body, I see more in a clinical way as an indication of states of health rather than unrealistic societal projections.  Each of us has a "healthy" weight and size that is optimum of us.  One size for all is very unrealistic.  Our eating habits can indicate some balancing needed in our emotional and mental beliefs - our thinking.  The process is to re-train the mind so our thoughts and words are positively supporting our desires for optimum health and wellness. As well as healthy eating and optimal physical exercise.

Optimize your physical, mental and emotional health by letting go of the old “gunk” that is clogging your life. Make room for vibrant health, mental clarity, emotional balance and more peace within and around you. Meal planning, eating for your blood type, cooking class and more. Learn how to incorporate into your daily life natural practices to detox body, mind and emotions to successfully manage weight, stress, get rid of addictions and pain to feel and be your best.

Hypnotherapy is beneficial for Individuals who are functional and want to change behaviors and improve the quality of their lives. It can be very effective for normal, healthy adults who have simply found a challenge that is difficult to handle.

The Session:

The session will last about two hours. To begin we will have about thirty minutes to determine the nature of the problem and discuss more deeply what specific results you are wanting and the current underlying blocks (old habits and outdated beliefs) that have been limiting you in attaining them.  

During the relaxation process, and positive, supportive suggestive verbal imagery, you are in a very peaceful, quiet, soothing environment laying in a comfortable recliner. Your experience is your own and typically the client is aware at all times of what is being said and is able to come back fully awake at any time.

The session ends with a discussion of how the client feels and a supportive plan of action to fully integrate and incorporate the new patterns and changes that are taking place.

 I also ask that you make the commitment to follow the suggestions that you are given.  One requirement that is very important for optimum success with this therapy is that you listen to each week's recording every day, preferably at night as you are going to sleep.  I am here to help, support, advise and encourage you as you make whatever level of improvement in your life that you are ready to make.  It is all up to you.

What is hypnosis and transpersonal hypnotherapy – suggestive therapy?

• Is a natural state of consciousness in which you are open to suggestions. 

• Gives a fast, direct and effective way of tapping into the unused reserves of our subconscious mind which represents 90% of our brain power.

• It is a naturally occurring state of concentration.

• Enhances your control over both your mind and your body.

• It de-programs the subconscious mind to allow better access to your higher mind and your own wisdom of intuition. 

• Re-programming the subconscious mind with the clients’ own more supportive, positive suggestions to allow better access to the higher mind and the wisdom of intuition.

Your body is relaxed, your conscious “mind clutter” is quieted and your attention is free to examine and reprogram thoughts, feelings, habits and behaviors that no longer serve or support you in a positive way. 

The goal is to increase awareness around personal and societal programming. With increased awareness comes the personal choice to keep or reject these programs. Once the choice is made to reject old programs (old beliefs, habits, thoughts, behaviors, etc.) the undesirable patterns are then cleared and replaced with more supportive, positive, desirable thoughts, habits, beliefs and behaviors. This leads to the clients utilizing their full potential and fully accessing their gifts, talents, abilities to create the life they choose.

We will utilize various meditation methods, breath awareness, physical movement, sound vibration, acupressure and guided visualization to reach that Zen-like place within and remember the way to get back there whenever we need it as we go through our day to day lives.

Meditation is a technique for working with the mind. The mind is a tool that we must put into use effectively and efficiently in our daily lives. Very simple meditation is like resting. All day you are processing information, sounds, smells, feelings, etc. and your mind needs a break. 

You will experience a more stable, calm, clear and un-cluttered mind, more emotional balance, clearing of tension from your physical body and a stronger connection to your spirit or soul. 

Meditation is a detoxification of the mind and emotions.

Relaxation is a technique that allows the benefits of physical exercise, meditation, etc. to fully incorporate and integrate into every fiber of your being.

We must rest to have the vitality, stamina and endurance to successfully orchestrate and navigate our journey of life.

Breathing (pranic energy) is the Vital Force found in all of life. It animates life. The life of a cell or the life of a tree or an animal or human. This vital energy is in the brain and in the nerves. It is distributed throughout the body by the nervous system. 

Prana is the human energy which comes to us through the breath. Prana is the first unit of energy. It is the first breath or movement of the soul into the realm of mind and body. 

Pranayama is the science of breath management. It is the ability to expand the first unit, the seed of energy in you, into the experience of life. Slowing the breath also slows the mind.

Achieving and Maintaining Your Healthy Weight:

Utilizing conscious health eating, personal exercise routines, yoga, relaxation, meditation and guided visualization to clear emotional blocks, you can achieve your goal of living - being - healthy, strong and focused in body, mind and spirit.

Being a four+ letter word.... avoid using it.  Acknowledging that at certain times in your sometimes hectic life, you may have or are currently experiencing tension, disharmony and imbalance.  You are the one who got you where you are and you are the one who can get your life back on track.  Having that experience allows us the opportunity to choose to bring areas of our life back into a more balanced and harmonious state.

The use of chemicals i.e. tobacco, alcohol, prescription and non-prescription drugs, caffeine, sugar, overeating, etc. offer a very temporary respite.  Yes, these "soothers" can be used short term.  Begin today getting your life back on tract by using more permanent, natural methods of returning yourself to physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health and wellness.

Getting a natural night's sleep is paramount in experiencing physical health and wellness, mental focus and acuity, emotional balance and spiritual alignment.  Katherine teaches you how to set yourself up for a wonderful, fully conscious, alert and high energy day by creating a routine of getting a good night's sleep the night before.  Studies also show that restoring the ability to sleep positively affects health. and that people with a variety of medical disorders experienced improved overall health and quality of life when their sleep problems were resolved.

Learn how to set yourself up for a wonderful, fully conscious. alert and high energy day by creating a routine of getting a good night's sleep the night before.  Taking drugs to induce an unnatural sleep state is a "band aid effort" and ineffective for long term use.  If you seem to be living your life in a mire of poor physical health, low energy, brain fog, emotional roller coasterishness (my word creation) and depression. Create a program that works for you when you make it a part of your daily lifestyle.

Our thoughts determine the direction. As we think, so we become. 

Mind Mastery - I have heard many say that their mind never shuts up.  It just goes and goes and goes.  So instead of allowing your mind to control and manipulate you, show it who is really the "boss" of you.

Who is that you might ask?  Our Soul, our higher Self, is the orchestrator of our lives.  The physical body, mind and emotions are members of our team.  And it takes each member of our team to know what their job is, what their responsibilities are and to be supported in comprehensive teamwork to be the most effective, successful human beings possible.

Focusing and utilizing the dynamic power of your mind will make it more productive in fulfilling your Soul's purpose and mission.

Practicing meditation and positive affirmations are very effective tools to get your mind back on track.  Give it some guidelines to work with.  Make a list of what you want to experience in your life and give your "team" the support to get the job done.

It is truly amazing what can be accomplished by putting your mind, body and emotions into focused, conscious action, all working toward the same goals.
