WITH KATHLEEN SHANNON, CHt
Hypnosis
My primary wellness modality is hypnosis (also known as hypnotherapy) which I have been teaching clients and students since 1993. These sessions may include Clinical Hypnosis, Spiritual Hypnosis, Past Life Regression, Spirit Contact Therapy and Life Between Lives.
I facilitate deep relaxation and creative visualization to help one release negative subconscious programming. This release and acceptance process results in a change of perspective; which enables one to overcome emotions and behavior such as anxiety, guilt, pain, sadness, anger, unwanted habits, and more.
Negative emotions and behavior can cause disease and events to happen that you don’t need in your life. When unwanted things happen, you may actually be causing them with negative thought patterns, subconsciously. You attract what you don’t want!
Illness, accidents and a sour attitude are soul’s indicator of imbalance. Negative thought patterns must be changed in order to be free to experience a life of your own choosing which may include serenity, good will, prosperity and health.
My goal is to help you live successfully in the world today by creating high energy, focus and abundance in your life. You are your beliefs, they need to be examined and understood so you can dissolve any blocks to your natural unlimited energy.
Hypnosis is an easy and effective process to program strong abilities to focus and remember studies at school, increase memory in general and to improve athletic prowess in sports. All hypnosis is self hypnosis, my words alone are not enough. Here with me you will learn self hypnosis skills to use the rest of your life.
All hypnosis is self hyypnosis, you learn how to allow it to happen, you are always in control. For example, when you join an institution such as the military or a religion, you allow the army or the church to change your behaviour with willing participation in its daily requirements. You can always say no if you do not agree with its agenda. It is a choice to agree or resist.
When you join a gym and hire a private trainer, you are agreeing to one on one instruction. Think of a hypnotist as a private trainer for your mind, to improve subconcous behaviors.
Clinical Hypnosis
I use Clinical Hypnosis as a way to create transformation in your subconscious mind with new positive phrases. This brings faster results than talk therapy, where your conscious mind wants change, but subconsciously continues to replay negative words used to control you as a child.
This is especially effective for reprogramming how one continues to react to past traumatic events. Hypnosis has now been approved by the US government as a medical prescription to help soldiers who suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
6 STEPS TO CLINICAL HYPNOSIS
1) Working together we first decide on the desired goals.
2) We find out the root cause of a health challenge or discover what is preventing the desired goals.
3) We co-create only positive affirmations for you manifest what you desire or to manage pain and promote healing on your own at home.
4) You lay back in a comfortable recliner and close your eyes. Hypnotic trance music is playing. You discover the hypnogogic line between sleep and awake.
5) I command to you the new affirmations while you are in hypnosis. I say them again in first person, asking you to repeat after me. You are 200 times more likely to accept new programming while under hypnosis.
6) Your session is followed up with emailed instructions which include all the affirmations we created together and how to do self hypnosis at home.
Clinical hypnosis has become popular for patients seeking a complement to their medical procedures and relief from unusual health challenges such as chronic pain and chronic disease. Some patients find these conditions are not fully resolved through pharmaceutical drugs and surgeries, so they may try alternative solutions like hypnosis.
I facilitate hypnosis for pain control if you are a patient who can’t use anesthesia and are needing a procedure done, such as at the dentist.
I offer pre-surgery hypnotherapy for optimum success during procedures, promoting confidence in your surgeon and a calm mental state. Then I can help you speed up your healing process with post-surgery hypnotherapy programming.
There are many medical procedures that may cause anxiety, insomnia or nausea, where hypnosis is very effective in resolving those kinds of problems.
All sessions will be holistic in nature, treating body, mind and spirit as equal parts of a whole system of health optimized through balance, understanding and visualization. In this way, I offer medication-free solutions to help sleep better, eliminate pain and speed healing.
The most commonly accepted use of clinical hypnosis in the past was to quit smoking or lose weight. Patients were sometimes referred by their doctor to a hypnotist. Now in the new century it has been proven effective for use in any behavior modification desired.
Think of hypnosis as programming new software into the hardware of your brain.
Spiritual Hypnotherapy
Offered here are my unique sessions of spiritual hypnotherapy, used for exploring past lives, life between lives and your future in this life or a future life. These sessions are beneficial for understanding your life as it is now, healing from past hurts and manifesting a better future. This can include regressing to your childhood in this life, called age regression.
I specialize in helping you meet and work with your spirit guides to improve your life and to release any guilt, anger, fear, sadness and remorse that may be blocking your success.
I also help clients contact friends or relatives who have passed on to the other side. You become your own psychic medium. That beloved person can talk to me through you. Every important person you interact with in this life is most likely someone you were with in a past life.
Learning how to harness and use these powerful tools can help you create a better life now and for your future.

Remote Hypnotherapy
Kathleen’s Ministry offers remote services which brings me to you, anywhere in the world. We can see each other just like an in-person session. I can monitor your eye rems and breathing. All you need is a computer with a built-in camera and an account with Zoom, Google Meet or WhatsApp.
Telephone sessions are also an excellent way to experience hypnotherapy in the comfort of your own home. All you need is a blue tooth device or headset for your phone but you can also use the speaker phone for hands free relaxation. This is a method that I have been using since 2008 with great success. This remote method is very safe because you are given a self release suggestion. That means you can come out of trance at any time on your own.
For “Remote Sessions” you can use a land line with no video picture which calls my cell phone or both use a smart phone if you prefer to see me on camera. We can connect by cell phones or computer for a visual session on WhatsApp, Zoom, or Google Meet.
You will make a regular hypnotherapy appointment on this page, and add “Remote Session” in the notes. I will contact you by telephone at the time you choose for your session. Before that, I will contact you by email to plan the best type of remote session we will have.
