Is This For You?

Hey friends!

We're on the final stretch of our journey to explore Depth Hypnosis and Applied Shamanic Counseling. Today I'm talking about ways to tell if this healing practice is for you.

This journey has been a series of bitesize insights. These insights build upon each other and are structured, so each episode stands on its own. So if you listen to episodes in random order or you're just joining this trek - I've got you covered.

After today, I'll wrap up this series by talking about things to consider before entering a plant medicine ceremony. Again, I want to echo what I shared last week. Depth Hypnosis and Applied Shamanic Counseling do *not* involve ingesting plants. Yet, I know plant medicine ceremonies are flourishing. So I want to share things to consider before you step into that sacred ceremony - as my last episode of this series. Then I'll return to a potpourri of topics, thoughts, and ideas. 

Let's get started.

Exploration

How do you know if Depth Hypnosis and Applied Shamanic Counseling are for you? First, as a general barometer, this healing paradigm is for you if you're experiencing friction in life. And more importantly, you're willing to solve old problems in new ways so you can access clarity and meaning. 

This generation is craving connection and experiential transformation. And your brain is wired to explore. So when you crave exploration and reconnect with your purpose, you experience a transformation. You step into your authority and embody your essence. And from this holistic place, you reawaken to the mystery of the universe.

That said, most of us do not explore without an impetus. It usually takes a symptom you're suffering from before you take action. The symptoms may be...

• Disconnect, numb, or loss
• Stuck or blocked
• Anxiety, stress, and complete overwhelm
• Depression and chronic fatigue
• Imposter syndrome and self-doubt
• Addictions with food, social, screens, or substance
• And strained relationships with a spouse, parent, child, boss, or colleague.

Remember, what's happening in your outer world reflects what's happening in your inner world. So if you're in conflict with another person, you're likely in conflict with a part of you that reflects similar qualities. Or, if you feel stagnant or lack focus, you likely have a part of you that feels stuck and unable to focus. So with insight and growth, you experience a more profound sense of freedom - physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. 

The Healing Journey

When do you know if Depth Hypnosis and Applied Shamanic Counseling are for you? You may find talk therapy and western therapies serve their needs and purpose. And you're seeking more. You sense there are still unresolved or unearthed issues that need a different approach. 

And when you get to the heart of the matter and harmonize your inner world with your outer world - you neutralize friction in your life. You move forward more whole and alive. This. Is. Transformational. And you have to experience it to believe it.

Depth Hypnosis and Applied Shamanic Counseling avoid talking at length about trauma. Instead, they cut to the chase, making healing occur much quicker. When you're committed, in your agency, and willing to do the transformational work, you can expect a shift within 4-5 sessions. 

I'll break this down and share examples of what transformation looks like. 

• You move away from feeling disconnected, lost, and stuck and move towards living in alignment with your power and experiencing a balanced life.
• You move away from feeling anxious, stressed, and completely overwhelmed and move towards being able to identify, remedy, and restore imbalances to return more empowered.
• You move away from suffering from imposter syndrome and cycling in self-doubt and move towards consciously traveling along your own path.
• You move away from addictions and move towards understanding, purifying, and holding your native energy.
• You move away from feeling depression and chronic fatigue and move towards living in flow and navigating life with self-confidence, clarity, and grounding.
• You move away from feeling loneliness and isolation and move towards connecting and relating with others more compassionately.

When you go inward, revisit past trauma, and heal imbalances - you experience a transformational shift. You elevate yourself, your energy, and your presence.

One's Own Authority

When you step into this work, you need to act with authenticity and from a place of authority. This is not magical thinking, nor is it a tour of past lives. Instead, this is about being in your agency to put yourself on a more powerful path.

And this mindset dovetails with Depth Hypnosis and Applied Shamanic Counseling. This healing practice encourages radical self-responsibility on your part. You need to be in your authority and engage in self-empowerment through self-knowledge. This is important when navigating your psyche. 

Things to Know

As you decide whether this healing practice is for you, I'll share some things you to know.

If you're unsure you're ready for this deep work, I recommend looking at best-case and worst-case scenarios. I'm certain you'll see you have nothing to lose and everything to gain by doing this work. And by continuing to listen to my podcast, you'll get a sense of how I communicate and express my thoughts. And when you're ready to take action, schedule a 15-minute call with me. I want to hear where you're at in your journey and what you're looking for. Vist sparkpathhealing.com and schedule time to talk.

When preparing for a Depth Hypnosis or Applied Shamanic Counseling session, be sure you're committed to doing the work to get the results you desire. Also, start noting your dreams leading into your first session. Dreams help point you in a direction or provide more texture and color into issues you're experiencing. And in general, I recommend avoiding any substances 24 hours before a session. That way, you have greater clarity and can make connections.

The flow of these sessions usually goes like this...

• You share your history as it helps me identify potential patterns
• You expand on the issue/issues you're experiencing and want to work on through the sessions
• You connect with your higher self through a guided meditation
• You unravel deep patterns and heal at the issues origination
• You further integrate the healing through more sessions

That said, your pathway to reconciliation and wholeness is unique. So your spiritual healing sessions have an organic structure.
