What is hypnosis and what can it do for me?

Hypnosis is a state of consciousness, a relaxed state in which your concentration is focused. You are aware of everything, but because your attention is heightened and focused, you are more receptive to the ideas and suggestions that will affect the quality of your life in a positive, constructive way.

Hypnotherapy is the process we use, utilizing a series of positive “suggestions” or new “programming” to create that change. We are bombarded with suggestions all day long, every day of our lives, by the way of TV, radio, advertisements, written and spoken word. Even the people around us are continually giving us “suggestions,” often negative.

Hypnotherapy is a proven, professional approach to help you take control over your own life … to help create positive changes that are very important to the quality of your health and life … and to do it easier than you ever dreamed possible.

Is hypnosis safe?

Yes, it is perfectly safe. Hypnosis has been accepted and approved by Medical, Dental and Psychological Associations, as well as they American Medical Association for many years. It is utilized today as a valuable modality for self-improvement. Hypnosis, as we apply it, is probably the safest method you have ever tried. We use gentle, positive affirmations, visualization and other behavioral modification techniques to achieve your goals.

Hypnosis can change the way you think, feel and react to life.

Will I lose "control" in the hypnotic state?

No! This is one of the misconceptions given to us by stage hypnosis and show-biz. You cannot be hypnotized to say or do anything you do not want to do.

“I had smoked 4 packs a day for 35 years. A man I worked with was an alcoholic and I always saw him as a person with absolutely no will power. When he went to Life Awareness Programs and stopped smoking with a hitch, my only thought was that if he could do it, this had to be an answer for me. My business keeps me surrounded with other smokers, yet I was amazed at how easy it was for me to stop with this method. I have had no carving at all and it doesn’t even bother me to be around people who smoke. That was important to me because I didn’t want to turn into an obnoxious non-smoker. I have recommended this program and Karen Haley, to everyone I know.”

"When I arrived at my first Weight Control appointment with Life Awareness Programs, I weighed 250 pounds. Along with the hypnosis to establish new and healthier eating habits, I learned how to see myself in a more positive light and respond to stressful situations so that I retained control of my reactions and decisions. After one year I stopped in to see Karen, to show her my new me at 135 pounds. I was so pleased when she didn’t even recognize me!"

“I had absolutely no problems quitting 16 years ago. The program was so positive. I had no cravings and being around smokers has never bothered me. I never even notice them! I think my success had to do with my facilitator, Karen Haley. I felt like she understood, and this helped me to trust her. On a scale of 1-10, I have to rate her program a big TEN!”

"I had been drinking every day, all day for 35 years. I had just had another DUI and this one was going to mean jail time. I was very concerned that this would cost me my job and career. I saw Karen’s sign and made the call that changed my life. The morning after my first appointment I woke up for the first time in many years without
a hangover AND I didn’t want a drink. That was eight years ago and I am still sober."

“I smoked 2+ packs a day for 20 years have now been smoke free for 22 years. I was selling real estate at that time and smoking sas so much of a dominating force in my life. I can remember always trying to figure out how I could have a cigarette. I would cut a client short to have one and I didn’t like anything controlling me like that. I have had no cravings at all, and other peoples’ smoke doesn’t bother me - it just seems to have a neutral effect. I’ve been amazed at how easy it is to stop smoking with this program. There was no struggle. Even though I’ve had some major stresses in my life, I’ve never thought of starting up again.”
