It was AMAZING and PROFOUND and HEALING!!! I am so in love with and grateful to my teachers, assistants and my beautiful group for their wisdom, love and support; and for the process itself! I was NOT gonna do this, no way, no how, no matter what anyone said. But then, at the last minute, my heart had other ideas. And I'm so grateful I listened. Much love to all at Wellness.
I began the two year Internship Program in October of 2007 and last week I completed the program, becoming an Advanced Clinical Hypnotherapist. This is an achievement that I am both proud to have accomplished and at the same time, humbled and honored by all of the knowledge, experience and confidence I have gained from my teachers. Diane and David, you are both such gifted mentors, but more importantly for me, the comfort level you model in the Heart Centered Hypnotherapy process has allowed me to not only trust the process, but also myself, my intuition and my clinical skills. This, I believe, is a gift that I could not have received anywhere else, or through any other type of training. So for that I am eternally grateful! I look forward to the next step in my journey, the path continues - Thank You!
I wanted to let you all know that I decided to do the 2 year Hypnotherapy internship and It was an absolutely amazing and unexpected experience. I met 14 other people who had completed the 6 day Hypnotherapy workshop and were interested in getting more of the whole experience. They were all lovely, motivated and interesting people who I consider friends now and hope to know for the rest of my life. The unexpected part is the spiritual path that we embarked upon. I thought I was going to learn more about hypnotherapy issues, which I did, but there was also so much more to it! Personal growth, spiritual enlightenment and fellowship are just the few that come to mind. In brief, it was an amazing experience! I'm so glad I decided to do it.
