Hypnosis is not about clucking like a chicken on stage during a Las Vegas act and not remembering it later. It is a deep state of relaxation that opens your mind to suggestions, but never unwillingly. Few have experienced the full potential of hypnosis because it is falsely associated with comedic entertainment instead of a powerful method for “relaxed suggestibility”. Some people might refer to methods of guided meditation and as "mindfulness." Both mindfulness and hypnosis are methods for changing our inner states. They can help anyone break long held unwanted habits, behaviors, or mindsets.

Hypnosis is very close to a natural state of mind. We often go in and out of it during repetitive tasks: cleaning, yard work, eating, bathing, daydreaming. Jon helps you access hypnotic states to support your personal goals. As Americans we are very attached to the idea that willpower is our key to success for almost anything. However willpower seldom works for our most deeply ingrained habits. Perhaps you smoke, or overeat, or experience high anxiety. Perhaps you can't shake shyness or lack of confidence. Why do you keep choosing undesirable partners to date? Do early negative experiences still prevent you from positive actions today?

Our brains get stuck in patterns that they no longer need. Simple guided hypnosis lets us see these patterns for what they are and set them aside in favor of new and more satisfying habits. Most people think they can just eliminate a "bad" habit but truthfully our brains want that habit for a reason. Old habits need to be replaced with new ones, healthier ones.

If you would like to explore this method of changing your thought processes, Jon's first meeting with you will include up to a 30 minute conversation about what you’d like to change, followed by a hypnosis session.  This first meeting will often last up to 90 minutes. It's a deeply peaceful and satisfying experience. Let Jon help you find out where you might be stuck in the change process. Don't give up on your dreams and desires for a more fulfilling lifestyle before trying hypnosis! Although this practice has been around for centuries, brain science is uncovering now why it is so powerful.
