Excellent hypnosis work happens organically when you are connected first to yourself, then to your client. You know you are connected and in alignment with your higher self because you’ll feel great, and little things won’t bother you.

The daily work of a professional hypnotist includes exceptional levels of wellness and self-care.

Take care of your body.

Eat healthy, get great sleep, and de-stress using self-hypnosis and other anti-anxiety techniques.

Take care of your mind.

Read things that are delightful, that make your soul smile.

Engage in thoughtful and purposeful discourse with people on topics you care about. If you don’t do this already, you can look forward to the following change: as soon as you begin studying to be a hypnotist and learning about the heart, mind, and behavior, the small talk topic that you may be used to talking about will seem boring.

Take care of your emotional state.

Give your mind stillness. Take time to do nothing. Watch leaves fall. Sit on the floor with your dog or cat. Sit near the lake or ocean and just listen to mother nature. Spend time in the forest with the trees and enjoy hearing the sounds and feel of the earth beneath you. Address your emotional needs, if an emotion comes up that you don’t like or want to change, do your self-hypnosis on it.

Take care of yourself spiritually.

Spirituality is a belief in something beyond what we can see with our eyes. It’s a belief that there is something more, that some part of our energy continues when we pass away from this life.

It’s not organized religion.

Honor that belief in you, whatever it is. If your spirituality is the forest, then visit the forest regularly.

If your spirituality is music, then listen to music regularly.

If your spirituality is being kind and compassionate to others, and reading scripture, then do that regularly.

One of the primary issues I’ve helped clients resolve, is that they are out of alignment with their own beliefs – whatever they are. As a professional hypnotist your role will be to help your clients with their own beliefs. You will never push your beliefs on your clients. You will, however, help your clients recognize their own beliefs and get back into alignment with them so they are living in integrity with their own beliefs.

Connection With Yourself First

Before you are able to truly connect with your client at a heart level – you must connect with yourself and stay connected.

This doesn’t mean you have to be perfect to be an exceptional hypnotist.

The opposite is often true.

Students arrive at my courses in varying states of discomfort, suffering, frustration, and anger.

Yet they know and believe there is something more. They’ve glimpsed the eternal and know they can have access to it. That’s why they are there. Hypnosis allows us to tap into the greatest parts of who we are as humans – and as source, if you have those beliefs. That’s why they’re there, to use that and help others use it as well.

And the first step is to connect with yourself first, daily.

What Does It Mean to “Connect”?

By connecting, I mean to focus and be present. Release anything that is not integral to that moment, allow yourself to drop into a very powerful resourceful state of knowing and feeling, and yes, I mean do some type of self-hypnosis.

How to Connect with Yourself

Do self-hypnosis, or spiritual connection daily with a focus on you – who you are now as a human.

Forgive yourself. Love yourself. Ask more of yourself. Set high expectations, and give yourself the love and grace to make mistakes and move on for the greater good of the human race.

How Do You Know When You’re Connected?

You’ll feel it. You’ll feel on top of your game. Little things won’t bother you. The things that used to upset you, don’t. You’ll see the big picture, and how all those little annoyances of daily life are really there to help you practice your craft – remaining calm in the face of fear and stress. That is what your clients will present to you, and that’s what you’ll deal with every day.
