Hypnosis for Today’s Children

How does it work?
Children are so often in a trance! The trick here is to catch the focus and imagination of the child and to tie it in with goals and change that are agreed to.
Did you know?
A child doesn’t need to sit still or close their eyes and they can still be in a useful trance state!
Hypnosis Works Wonderfully for Kids!
Children are in trance so much of the time, playing, make-believe roles and daydreaming; they can make amazing changes that most adults can only dream of! I have worked with children from around 4 years old and upwards. Anyone around 11 or older would tend to be treated as an adult.
Building Confidence, Reducing Anxiety, Building Self-Esteem
You may learn self-hypnosis, and by practicing it several times a day prior to the birth, you will be able to use this technique to distort time, such as deceasing the duration of contraction discomfort. With this technique, you may also access other techniques to help you to cope more effectively with the various stages of the birth process, such as creating anesthesia (absence of pain and touch) or analgesia (absence of pain).
Letting go Bed-Wetting (Enuresis)
Some women periodically experience fear surrounding the birth process. With hypnosis, you may learn to adjust the way you feel, and learn to become more relaxed, more joyful and more confident in your bodies ability to do what it needs to do automatically. You may also create positive change in your relationship to choosing breastfeeding for your baby, your energy levels and your calmness in your new role of motherhood.
Behavioural Improvements
Clients of mine have improved their skills at school, improved learning ability, and created more alertness when studying. I have helped children to stop thumb-sucking, curb nail-biting, and improve eating habits.
Children have rapidly improved negative behaviours, with just one or two sessions. It must be noted, however, that the child needs significant family and school support, and may require other family members to adjust their behaviours also ...
If a child lives with criticism, he learns to condemn.
If a child lives with hostility, he learns to fight.
If a child lives with ridicule, he learns to be shy.
If a child lives with shame, he learns to feel guilty.
If a child lives with tolerance, he learns to be patient.
If a child lives with praise, he learns to appreciate.
If a child lives with fairness, he learns justice.
If a child lives with security, he learns to have faith.
If a child lives with approval, he learns to like himself.
If a child lives with acceptance and friendship,
he learns to find love in the world.
