Before this program, I had taken another hypnotherapy class which was very interesting but did not provide me with adequate confidence or specific enough tools to do the work with others.
When I first started the Mindvalley Hypnotherapy Coaching program I knew right away that I would be well grounded and have not only good notes to refer to but actual real-time practice with other students and enough information to go out and test these tools with friends and others.
One day I was in a sauna reading over my notes and thinking about how I would get my first client when the lady sitting next to me asked what I was doing. I told her I was studying to be a hypnotherapy coach. She said so what does that mean. I said well I can show you a simple technique called "havening". Then, with her permission, we went through a havening experience ( I was reading my notes while her eyes were closed !) and she came out of the experience with a big smile. She then took me by complete surprise and said "I want to be your first client". After a few seconds I said great, let's set something up next week.
Now that this course is complete I have had several positive experiences with varying levels of success in testing out several of the simple but effective techniques provided during this course. I am so delighted and I feel my confidence growing with each session.
My intention is to keep doing this work and gradually over the next two years build up enough word-of-mouth clients to quit my day job and do this rewarding work on my preferred time schedule and with people, I believe I can truly help to live more fulfilled and enjoyable lives. Doing hypnotherapy makes me feel really helpful and it is very satisfying to know I have made someone else's life better.
