Healing Through Self-Hypnosis at Rancho Cortez

We mentioned last month that hypnotherapist Pat Labeda (pictured here) would bring her class on self-hypnosis to the Rancho Cortez fitness program, but we realize that little teaser may have lacked some important information. If you're wondering what self-hypnotherapy is and how it might help you, here are the details (courtesy of Pat herself):

Hypnosis is a Recognized Treatment

We've all seen a comedy act or a TV show that features hypnosis, but that's completely different from true hypnotherapy. In fact, authentic therapeutic hypnosis has been proven as an effective treatment for a variety of conditions and has been recognized for more than five decades by the American Medical Association as a worthwhile remedy.

Hypnosis is used in dentistry, childbirth, and surgery and has helped countless people quit smoking or drinking, manage pain, and recover from trauma.

Hypnosis is Safe

Hypnosis is nothing more than a deep state of relaxation that brings you into a heightened state of consciousness and awareness; there are no tricks or forced, embarassing behaviors in hypnotherapy. And contrary to popular belief, you cannot get "stuck" in a state of hypnosis or fail to wake up. A hypnotherapist simply uses visualization and positive input to help you affect change in your life.

What you can Expect

Pat's class is provided to all Rancho Cortez fitness program participants at no extra charge, and her goal is to teach you simple, proven hypnosis techniques that you can take home with you for further use. The focus is on self-healing and enabling you to tap into your own inner reservoir of strength to improve health, lose weight, overcome addiction, and manage pain.
