Should You Try Hypnotherapy?

There isn't one among us who has reached the point of perfection. Each of us has habits that we wish we could overcome. We each experience bad days, weeks or years we would like to get behind us. Many are searching for that extra bit of motivation necessary to really help us break out to a new level of success in our hobbies or careers.

If you have made a decision to actually do something about ending a behavior with which you are unhappy, or if you wish to improve a behavior you know is holding you back, hypnotherapy might be the fastest and most economical solution. A few sessions of hypnotherapy often brings dramatic and lasting change to behaviors that have held us back for years or even decades.

Ida Kendall has spent her career integrating hypnotherapy with other methods in the healing arts to create an holistic approach to behavior modification. She recognizes that there are times when psychotherapy, medical treatment, changes in diet, exercise, or spirituality may be needed to compliment the services she provides. On the other hand, she commonly receives referrals from practitioners in these other fields who recognize that hypnotherapy may speed up the process, and make the changes more permanent.

If you are plagued by fears, sleeplessness, depression, anxiety or addictions, or if you are desiring to increase motivation, focus, balance, or joy, the place to start is with Ida Kendall. Her combination of training and experience provide her with the wisdom to give you a prescription for wellness that takes into consideration body, mind, and spirit.

Hypnotherapy Instruction for Therapists and Hypnotherapists

Licensed family counselors and psychologists are finding that their clients are not as willing to spend months in traditional talk therapies in order to see results. Many of these same therapists are realizing that they need to use methods from the growing field of brief therapy. By teaching their clients to use various tools to deal with issues such as anxiety, eating disorders, fears, post traumatic stress disorder, and motivation, they can see short term results while working on the deeper causes.

In this video, Ida Kendall provides some additional details on how she works with therapists and other hypnotherapists to teach these methods.

Weight Management Through Hypnotherapy

If you have three sets of clothing in your closet to handle your shifts in weight from pleasingly plump to out of control, you may find that after all those other methods you've tried, hypnotherapy may be the way to get things under control. Ida Kendall can gently place you into a trans state, similar to that place you are just prior to becoming fully asleep. Once in this state, your mind is more predisposed to receive and later act on suggestions which you and Ida have agreed upon in advance.

Transformational Breath - Breath of Life, Breath of Joy

Do you think you breathe as well as you could?
Do you know the consequences of NOT breathing well?

• Depressed immune system
• Chronic Fatigue
• Poor circulation
• Physical weakness
• Toxicity build-up
• Depression
• Stress
• Sleeplessness
• Lymphatic dysfunction

And worst of all..

Availability for the top 32 anaerobic diseases to inhabit your body - things like cancer and fibromyalgia that just can't live in a properly oxygenated body!

The consequences are so serious that you will now find oxygen bars and hyperbaric chambers dotted across the country to address this poor state of affairs. It is estimated that we now use only 20% of our breath capacity on a regular basis, and yet a whopping 70% of our daily detox is done through respiration - WOW! (You thought it was that other system lower down that did all the detox work, didn't you?)

As little as 20 years ago, the oxygen content of our air supply was as much as 28%; it has now dropped to 16 - 18% in cities like Los Angeles. Are you worried? You should be! This statistic has tremendous impact on our health, vitality and wellb eing, and on our ability to resist disease and combat stress. Add that to our sedentary lifestyles, and we're in big trouble.

What are you going to do? We can't all move to a rain forest now, can we? Fortunately there is an economical solution at hand, a technique that after just 5 short sessions you can do for yourself at home.

It's called Transformational Breathing

Transformational Breathing is a diaphragmatic, circular breathing technique that works simultaneously on 3 important levels:
1. Clearing physical restrictions to open, relaxed breathing;
2. Releasing negative mental patterns and emotional suppressions
3. Providing a clear channel to spiritual awareness and connection.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What happens in a TB session?
In a reclined position, you are guided to relax and breathe gently and rhythmically without pausing, like a wave, coming in and going out without stopping. A breath session will last for about 60 minutes, with the last 15 minutes being a period of gentle meditation and "re-grounding".

Won't I hyperventilate if I breathe like that?
No, the facilitator will guide you to relax your exhale and this type of exhale is what prevents hyperventilation.

Sounds kinda boring - is that it?
Actually, there is more to it! Dynamic music will guide you through the various stages of breathwork. Your facilitator will gently guide your breath to rebalance using positive affirmations and trigger points that will release trapped energy. If the energy gets intense, your facilitator will coach you to "tone" or make long clear sounds. This moves the energy through your system so you can be free of restrictions both physically and emotionally. Movements may be added for greater effect, and you may move your arms, legs, hips, feet and shoulders as directed by your facilitator while you breathe.

What's in it for me?
Feelings of greater peace and relaxation; permanent resolution of emotional restrictions because these restrictions are addressed on all levels simultaneously - physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. Greater health (such as improved lymphatic and bowel function) and vitality and ongoing feelings of well being and peacefulness will be yours.

If you are interested in a breath session, individual or group, Ida Kendall can facilitate you to release, relief and peace.
