Before the Programme my journey into hypnotherapy began with inspiration and curiosity. Watching Paul McKenna in action sparked a desire to explore this fascinating field, although I approached it with some scepticism. I have spent many hours in psychotherapy over the past 3 decades healing from the profound effects of childhood abuse from both parents, which I found was successful but when I discovered that hypnosis could be even more effective than traditional psychotherapy, I felt compelled to learn more especially when Paul shared that statistically people have greater success of overcoming trauma via hypnotherapy when compared to psychotherapy. The idea of rewiring our thinking and reshaping our behaviours through neuroscience intrigued me deeply. While I had doubts, my innate curiosity - something that had always guided my healing journey - urged me forward. The same inner wisdom told me to undertake this course.
I had experienced the power of hypnosis twice before: once through hypnobirthing, which enabled me to have pain-free, intervention-free labour, and again through athletics sports performance techniques like anchoring. Both experiences were transformative and left me eager to understand the methods behind them. This course felt like the perfect opportunity to master these techniques, learn NLP strategies, and develop skills to help others break free from the negative patterns keeping them stuck.
Thanks to the Programme which was transformative because it encouraged me to approach personal growth holistically. It taught me that we only reach our true potential when we fill up our cups - our knowledge, skills, network, resources, and reputation.
Through guided sessions, powerful techniques, and a supportive community, I not only deepened my understanding of hypnotherapy but also learned to prioritize self-care and reflection. This programme emphasised the importance of aligning inner healing with external action, enabling me to reframe limiting beliefs of self-doubt, enhance my skill set, and cultivate meaningful connections.
Now My Life has shifted dramatically. I feel empowered to pursue opportunities because my five cups are no longer depleted. I’ve gained invaluable hypnotherapy skills, expanded my network with like-minded individuals, and strengthened my reputation as someone dedicated to transformation and growth. More importantly, I now approach challenges with clarity and confidence, knowing I have the resources to navigate them. This course didn’t just teach me about hypnotherapy - it reminded me that when we fill our own cups, we naturally inspire others to do the same.
