Acupressure

Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese process that uses fine needles. These are placed in strategic points throughout your body. Based on meridian points, the theory is that the process will unblock energy points letting it flow freely in the correct direction.

Acupuncture has help people overcome pain, high blood pressure, emotional stress and many other problems.

If you don't like needles then look into acupressure. This follows the same principles but involves applying pressure to the points with the hands and fingers instead of using needles. It also produces great results for many.

Hypnotism

Look into my eyes! Well it may sound silly, but hypnotism can make a big different in your life. Especially if you incorporate other techniques with it like Energy therapy, and EFT.

Your brain controls every cell in your body. The subconscious mind is busy working 24/7 doing everything necessary to keep you alive. It keeps your heart pumping, your lungs breathing, the digestive tract working and so many other little jobs.

It does this without you having to think about it.

 

Hypnosis can help you harness this part of the mind and provide the power to bring you happiness, and health.

 

Other benefits include self improvement and eliminating bad habits.

We have all been hypnotized at some point. You may have noticed this while driving or reading a book. All of a sudden you wonder how you got from point A to Point B or wonder what you just read.

Your conscious mind is bypassed with hypnosis This way you can make changes without it saying “ Oh, I can't do that” Your sub conscious will not think that way.

Energy

Energetics can help you resolve issues by having your energy support you in the ways that benefit you physically, emotionally, spiritually and mentally. Usually muscle testing is used to find the problems which can be many layers deep. These are discovered one at a time and then resolved.

You may want to become aware of other images you have at times that aren't in your best interest. When you have realized this, be sure to replace these with positive images.

Your thoughts have an influence on how you feel and heal. Try your best to eliminate negative thoughts. Staying positive brings on even more meaning when you understand how your mind works.
