Based on your priorities, we will work on the following areas, based on your priorities:
Strenghts
In traditional psychology, problems tend to be approached with a weakness-focus, meaning that the client and practitioner seek to extract what the client is doing ‘wrong’ to correct and solve the problem at hand.
In positive psychology, a strength-focus is assumed, meaning that the client and practitioner seek to identify what the client is doing ‘right’ in a given situation and how these positive attributes can be utilized to solve the problem.
The value in this approach is that the client views the problem more positively and constructively, which not only buffers against self-criticism but also promotes a growth mindset
Meaning & Values
Mahatma Gandhi once said that happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.
Regrettably, many people become overwhelmed and entangled in matters that do not align with their values and are largely unaware of the harmful effects of caring about things that, upon closer inspection, simply do not matter.
Caring about things that are not truly valued may prompt over-attachment to the superficial and fake, leading individuals to chase an illusion of happiness and satisfaction.
Motivation & Goals
Motivation & Goals
Motivation refers to the psychological processes responsible for initiating and continuing goal-directed behaviors. A crucial element in attaining one’s objectives is the intensity of motivation experienced at any given time, which is partly dependent on an individual’s ability to generate mental images of their future selves.
The mental representation someone has of a possible future self will positively influence the motivational factors needed to attain specific goals.
One way to get this momentum started is to introduce creative approaches, such as guided imagery and visualization, powerful techniques to envision what one can achieve.
Inner Critic
Many clients believe that a harsh, critical voice is needed to mobilize enough motivation. It is a common misconception that self-compassion equals self-pity.
Clients may believe that self-compassion can cause inactivity, passivity, a lack of motivation, or self-indulgence. Research findings suggest that this is not the case. Self-compassion is associated with greater personal initiative to make needed changes in one’s life.
Self-compassion is also positively associated with mastery goals and negatively associated with performance goals.
Self-Acceptance
Self-acceptance refers to the relationship that an individual has with him/herself and is conceptualized as the acceptance of self despite weaknesses or deficiencies.
Many scholars have added the term “unconditional” to the concept of self-acceptance to stress the fact that self-acceptance is not based on self-evaluation against some standard but a relational stance in which the individual accepts him/herself at a very fundamental level.
A person with a high level of self-acceptance does not feel “less” compared to others because of his/her weaknesses and failures and does not feel “better” than others because of his/her strengths and successes. Self-acceptance is the hallmark of a healthy relationship with the self.
Relationships
While developing functional-emotional intelligence skills can assist clients in managing their negative responses to the perceived difficult behavior of others, it is particularly beneficial to negate those negative responses.
To better understand and respond to difficult people, it is important to assess the behaviors that are perceived as problematic and discover the strength behind them.
By looking for the strengths behind difficult behaviors and increasing awareness of negative thinking patterns about a particular person, clients can begin to positively reframe those behaviors in a gentle, honest, and accurate way that offers a fresh perspective.
Communication
Feedbackers often worry about hurting the other person’s feelings, coming across as authoritative and not wanting to demotivate or discourage them.
On the other hand, receivers can perceive feedback as personal criticism and a threat to their self-efficacy and self-worth.
Considering emotions and point of view (empathy) of the person receiving the feedback, as an opportunity for growth and learning will instill a sense of hope and faith in the receiver’s capacity for change and improvement (growth mindset).
Mindfulness
Mindfulness practice is the ability to observe thoughts, emotions, and sensations. Rather than being completely immersed in them, individuals learn to see these thoughts, emotions, and sensations as transient states.
Through observing states, one can notice a difference between the states themselves and the person observing them. By entering this observer mode, one can “step outside of one’s immediate experience, thereby changing the very nature of that experience.”
This process has been referred to as de-centring, re-perceiving , and de-automatization to help clients enter this observer mode.
Feelfulness®
Feelfulness is the ability to feel a feeling by choice thus generate a desire state.
Feelfulness is one of the most most rewarding of all skills to quickly achieve the best possible self.
When you learn to allocate your observational resources to what matters most at the task at hand your confidence will increase and you will get a wonderful feeling from the inside out.
When you demonstrate yourself with honor and integrity, it keeps you on the most purposeful and enriching path and generally makes you a happier person.
This is because when you walk firmly in your integrity and your beliefs and behaviors benefit the greatest good is a win-win.
Practitioner's Strenghts
Knowing what your strengths are as a practitioner can help you to leverage them more deliberately and effectively. Strengths can be used to tackle problems or deal with difficult clients.
They can help you build a positive relationship with the client, and they may contribute to the more rapid and natural development of your professional role by putting them to work consciously.
The practitioner’s unique contribution to problem-solving success has been referred to as the “therapist effect.” Indeed, research has shown that a large proportion of intervention outcome is attributable to practitioner difference in approach.

What is Neuro-Coaching?
Perceptual Meta-self-awareness exercises are used to stimulate neural re-growth that generates change in the brain-mind-body continuum.
A revolutionary scientific observation is we are not necessarily “stuck” with the brain we have. “Rewiring” neural networks and enhancing neuroplasticity in normal brains is possible by shaping neural pathways.
1) accessing the subconscious mind and,
2) accessing the limbic section of the brain that provides the critical link to the brain-mind-body union and,
3) accessing way in which we can affect neural and physiological changes.

I am not here reciting what I've read, but I am expressing what I have observed that works wonders, and building on the work of Carl Jung the father of analytical psychology, William James, the father of Functional Psychology, Milton Erickson, the father of Ericksonian Hypnotherapy, and Martin Seligman the father of Positive Psychology.

- 5. your Automatic Habits determine Quality of your Life and the Rate of your Success!
In the old paradigm, it was commonly believed that leaders are born, not made. While it is true that some individuals may possess natural leadership qualities, it is important to recognize that leadership can also emerge from unexpected sources.
In the face of adversity, ordinary people who have never held leadership roles can rise and take charge when the situation demands it. This highlights the fact that leadership is not solely determined by inherent traits, but rather it can be nurtured and developed in anyone.
Moreover, the understanding that emotional intelligence skills, which are vital for effective leadership, can be acquired and enhanced through the brain's remarkable capacity for neuroplasticity.
This means that individuals have the potential to cultivate and strengthen their emotional intelligence, empowering them to become effective leaders by strengthening the following skills:

Skills
Generate a State of Being Skills
Feel a Feeling by Choice® Skills
First and foremost you need CLARITY. Without clarity, everything else lacks purpose and achieving the desired outcome becomes challenging, because more often than not, people don't know what they really want. What do you want?
The Words
By increasing awareness to not just words but also to the ways in which they are used, the effect of these words on your behavior and the behavior of others becomes extremely useful in choosing words and appropriate behavior more effectively.
Rather than unconsciously seeing yourself (and others) in a negative way by using negative language, coaching helps you circumvent these automatic patterns and their effects and helps you develop new positive patterns.
Word Triangles
Word Triangles Examples
HOW - BECOME - ACHIEVE
Thoughts and feelings affect who we become and what we achieve: when we gain the power to change them, we gain the power to change our circumstances, our health, and our life’s purpose, we gain the power to choose HOW you wish to experience the world.
PATTERN RECOGNITION - PATTERN UTILIZATION - PATTERN CREATION
Whether you’re a people helper (practitioner, coach) or managing /leading people,
learning how to Generate a State (Feel a Feeling by Choice®) is for You!
Why? Because it is not just an ADVANCED Skill but it is CONCEPTUAL meaning you can use it in a way that is good for you at whatever you do that you can do better.
PRACTITIONER - LEADER - PEOPLE HELPER
Feelfulness is one of the most advanced skills to acquire and to master and once practiced enough number of times, it has become an automatic habit for me and for everyone I taught this as a SKILL.
Effortlessly generating states for your clients begins with mastering generating states for yourself first, having a clear discernment over the similarities and differences over the flavors (gradients) between various states of being.
THERAPEUTIC - PEAK PERFORMANCE - MASTERY
Once mastered, your generated state can be made available or transferred to your client or an audience (colleagues, family, or group of people).
This is the reason why is necessary to increase your acuity, perfecting your detached observation skills, for when and if, you get to the negative patterns, you will already have the skill to neutralize the undesired emotional reaction and to choose your appropriate response by Generating a State.
This is the secret to Mastery!
Lead singers do this very well, but they do not focus on projecting their state unto the audience, instead they focus on presenting their Mastery; they allow themselves to feel the feeling of, to "swim" in their mastery while performing, and this is how they have their fans “under their spell.”
It's not a "spell," it's FEELFULNESS®
How do Word / Mind Triangles Work?
Word / Mind triangles are the perfect tool used in Cognitive Defusion to help individuals shift from a binary mindset to a more complex, dynamic mindset. One basic idea of a mind triangle is that it consists of three points, each representing a different aspect of an individual's experience: thoughts, feelings, and behavior.
When we experience a distressing thought or emotion, we often get caught up in it and view it as an absolute truth. This can lead to a binary mindset where we feel like we have only two options: to believe the thought or emotion or to try to push it away. However, this binary mindset can be limiting and may not allow for a more nuanced understanding of our experience.
By using a mind triangle, individuals can learn to view their thoughts and emotions as just one aspect of their experience, along with their behavior and physical sensations.
This can help them develop a more complex and dynamic understanding of their experience, rather than seeing it in black and white terms. For example, if someone is experiencing the distressing thought "I am a failure," they might initially feel trapped in this thought and see it as an absolute truth.
However, using a mind triangle, they can learn to view this thought as just one aspect of their experience, along with their feelings and behaviors. They might notice that this thought makes them feel anxious and depressed, and that it leads them to avoid situations where they might fail.
By examining all three points of the mind triangle, they might begin to see that their thought is not necessarily resourceful and that they have other options besides believing it or avoiding situations where they might fail. In this way, mind triangles can be a powerful tool for cognitive defusion because they help individuals develop a more complex and nuanced understanding of their experience, rather than getting stuck in binary thinking patterns.
This leads to top emotional intelligence, increased self-awareness, and improved performance and overall well-being.
First and foremost you need CLARITY. Without clarity, everything else lacks purpose and achieving the desired outcome becomes challenging, because more often than not, people don't know what they really want. What do you want?
All it takes is willingness and I will show you the way…

5 Traits of Superior Leadership
When it comes to assessing leadership styles, the role played by certain dispositional factors is well demonstrated by successful transformational leaders.
Each trait might predict your ratings of transformational leadership behaviors, as follows:
- ENTHUSIASM: a tendency to “convey positive emotions and project optimism and enthusiasm” may account for the link between extraversion and transformational leadership behaviors.
- SELF-EFFICACY: transformational leaders are usually high in self-esteem and self-efficacy, while those high in neuroticism tend toward the opposite, given their negatively skewed worldview.
- PROACTIVE: openness to new experience; two main aspects of transformational leadership are entertaining new ideas and thinking outside the box. Transformational leaders are more proactive than reactive, finding fresh ideas to help clients.
- CONSCIENTIOUSNESS: the ability to self-manage without needing supervision is the mark of any outstanding leader, especially true of a transformational leader with high levels of internal motivation.
- EMPATHY: those with empathic nature often show concern, support, and basic respect for others – all pivotal aspects of transformational leadership.

My Approach
Carl Jung founded the analytical psychology movement and is known for the collective unconscious, archetypes and individuation.
Jung found that there is a collective unconscious all people share and helped people better understand their unconscious mind.
During the last thirty years of his life, Jung embraced Alchemy as a crucial component of his research in psychology. He found in alchemy a perfect symbiosis of ideas and images that matched his own understanding of the complexity of the psyche, affirming his beliefs regarding the unconscious's drive and direction.
Alchemy seeks to transform the lead of the unconscious into the gold of wisdom, liberating your soul. The alchemists understood the connection between the anima and the soul - “the innermost and most secret numinous of human.”
Milton Erickson's clinical practice conveyed an extremely advanced and nuanced understanding of the human mind that modern science continues to validate to this day in realation to individual’s unconscious minds.
But far more importantly, he understood the value of intelligently and creatively acting on this knowledge, and as a result pioneered effective novel approaches to activate the healing potential of the continuously intelligent and creative unconscious’ of his patients.
1. how the unconscious mind works
2. indirect, permissive and interspersal techniques
3. brief therapy, neuro-linguistic programming
4. observation skills, validation, cultivation, and challenge
5. applying tailoring, utilization, strategic, competency, naturalistic methods
Martin Seligman strongly encouraged the field of psychology in 1998 to widen its scope and move beyond human problems and pathology to human flourishing.
Rather than merely focusing on what is wrong with people and fixing their problems, the focus should also be on what is right with people and boosting their strengths.
Born in 1942, Seligman is credited as the father of Positive Psychology and its efforts to scientifically explore human potential.
1. positive emotion
2. engagement
3. relationships
4. meaning
5. achievement
William James the father of Functional Psychology was interested in the study of optimal human functioning and considered subjective experience as highly important.
He believed that to maximize human potential, we must gain insight into both the limits of human energy and the ways to stimulate and optimally use this energy.
Some have argued that William James should be considered “America’s first positive psychologist.

Word Triangles®
Researchers discovered that sentences with unusual grammar or unexpected meaning activate the brain's language processing centers more than straightforward or nonsensical sentences, because Complex Sentences Fire Up Brain’s Language Centers
They used an artificial language network to identify sentences that drove and suppressed brain activity, finding that linguistic complexity and surprisal were key factors.
Sentences requiring cognitive effort to decipher, such as those with unusual grammar or meaning, evoked the highest brain responses. The study offers insights into how the brain processes language and has potential applications in understanding higher-level cognition.
Key Facts:
1. MIT researchers used an artificial language network and functional MRI to study the brain’s language processing regions’ responses to different sentences.
2. Sentences with linguistic complexity and surprisal, requiring cognitive effort, activated the language centers more strongly.
3. The study’s findings can help improve our understanding of how the brain processes language and may have broader implications for cognitive research.

I am not here reciting what I've read, but I am expressing what I have observed that works wonders, and building on the work of Carl Jung the father of analytical psychology, William James, the father of Functional Psychology, Milton Erickson, the father of Ericksonian Hypnotherapy, and Martin Seligman the father of Positive Psychology.
With my UNIQUE mix of expertise I am here to give you the Tools you need to gain Top Functional EIQ Skills to enhance whatever you do, that you can do better:

- 4. beneficially Register (neuroplasticity) in your Muscle Memory (automatic habits), because
- 5. your Automatic Habits determine Quality of your Life and the Rate of your Success!
In the old paradigm, it was commonly believed that leaders are born, not made. While it is true that some individuals may possess natural leadership qualities, it is important to recognize that leadership can also emerge from unexpected sources.
In the face of adversity, ordinary people who have never held leadership roles can rise and take charge when the situation demands it. This highlights the fact that leadership is not solely determined by inherent traits, but rather it can be nurtured and developed in anyone.
Moreover, the understanding that emotional intelligence skills, which are vital for effective leadership, can be acquired and enhanced through the brain's remarkable capacity for neuroplasticity.
This means that individuals have the potential to cultivate and strengthen their emotional intelligence, empowering them to become effective leaders by strengthening the following skills:

Feel a Feeling by Choice® Skills
First and foremost you need CLARITY. Without clarity, everything else lacks purpose and achieving the desired outcome becomes challenging, because more often than not, people don't know what they really want. What do you want?
The Words
By increasing awareness to not just words but also to the ways in which they are used, the effect of these words on your behavior and the behavior of others becomes extremely useful in choosing words and appropriate behavior more effectively.
Rather than unconsciously seeing yourself (and others) in a negative way by using negative language, coaching helps you circumvent these automatic patterns and their effects and helps you develop new positive patterns.

How do Word / Mind Triangles Work?
Word / Mind triangles are the perfect tool used in Cognitive Defusion to help individuals shift from a binary mindset to a more complex, dynamic mindset. One basic idea of a mind triangle is that it consists of three points, each representing a different aspect of an individual's experience: thoughts, feelings, and behavior.
When we experience a distressing thought or emotion, we often get caught up in it and view it as an absolute truth. This can lead to a binary mindset where we feel like we have only two options: to believe the thought or emotion or to try to push it away. However, this binary mindset can be limiting and may not allow for a more nuanced understanding of our experience.
By using a mind triangle, individuals can learn to view their thoughts and emotions as just one aspect of their experience, along with their behavior and physical sensations.
This can help them develop a more complex and dynamic understanding of their experience, rather than seeing it in black and white terms. For example, if someone is experiencing the distressing thought "I am a failure," they might initially feel trapped in this thought and see it as an absolute truth.
However, using a mind triangle, they can learn to view this thought as just one aspect of their experience, along with their feelings and behaviors. They might notice that this thought makes them feel anxious and depressed, and that it leads them to avoid situations where they might fail.
By examining all three points of the mind triangle, they might begin to see that their thought is not necessarily resourceful and that they have other options besides believing it or avoiding situations where they might fail. In this way, mind triangles can be a powerful tool for cognitive defusion because they help individuals develop a more complex and nuanced understanding of their experience, rather than getting stuck in binary thinking patterns.
This leads to top emotional intelligence, increased self-awareness, and improved performance and overall well-being.

5 Traits of Superior Leadership
When it comes to assessing leadership styles, the role played by certain dispositional factors is well demonstrated by successful transformational leaders.
Each trait might predict your ratings of transformational leadership behaviors, as follows:
- ENTHUSIASM: a tendency to “convey positive emotions and project optimism and enthusiasm” may account for the link between extraversion and transformational leadership behaviors.
- SELF-EFFICACY: transformational leaders are usually high in self-esteem and self-efficacy, while those high in neuroticism tend toward the opposite, given their negatively skewed worldview.
- PROACTIVE: openness to new experience; two main aspects of transformational leadership are entertaining new ideas and thinking outside the box. Transformational leaders are more proactive than reactive, finding fresh ideas to help clients.
- CONSCIENTIOUSNESS: the ability to self-manage without needing supervision is the mark of any outstanding leader, especially true of a transformational leader with high levels of internal motivation.
- EMPATHY: those with empathic nature often show concern, support, and basic respect for others – all pivotal aspects of transformational leadership.
We will work on the following areas, based on your priorities:
Strenghts
In traditional psychology, problems tend to be approached with a weakness-focus, meaning that the client and practitioner seek to extract what the client is doing ‘wrong’ to correct and solve the problem at hand.
In positive psychology, a strength-focus is assumed, meaning that the client and practitioner seek to identify what the client is doing ‘right’ in a given situation and how these positive attributes can be utilized to solve the problem.
The value in this approach is that the client views the problem more positively and constructively, which not only buffers against self-criticism but also promotes a growth mindset
Meaning & Values
Mahatma Gandhi once said that happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.
Regrettably, many people become overwhelmed and entangled in matters that do not align with their values and are largely unaware of the harmful effects of caring about things that, upon closer inspection, simply do not matter.
Caring about things that are not truly valued may prompt over-attachment to the superficial and fake, leading individuals to chase an illusion of happiness and satisfaction.
Motivation & Goals
Motivation & Goals
Motivation refers to the psychological processes responsible for initiating and continuing goal-directed behaviors. A crucial element in attaining one’s objectives is the intensity of motivation experienced at any given time, which is partly dependent on an individual’s ability to generate mental images of their future selves.
The mental representation someone has of a possible future self will positively influence the motivational factors needed to attain specific goals.
One way to get this momentum started is to introduce creative approaches, such as guided imagery and visualization, powerful techniques to envision what one can achieve.
Inner Critic
Many clients believe that a harsh, critical voice is needed to mobilize enough motivation. It is a common misconception that self-compassion equals self-pity.
Clients may believe that self-compassion can cause inactivity, passivity, a lack of motivation, or self-indulgence. Research findings suggest that this is not the case. Self-compassion is associated with greater personal initiative to make needed changes in one’s life.
Self-compassion is also positively associated with mastery goals and negatively associated with performance goals.
Self-Acceptance
Self-acceptance refers to the relationship that an individual has with him/herself and is conceptualized as the acceptance of self despite weaknesses or deficiencies.
Many scholars have added the term “unconditional” to the concept of self-acceptance to stress the fact that self-acceptance is not based on self-evaluation against some standard but a relational stance in which the individual accepts him/herself at a very fundamental level.
A person with a high level of self-acceptance does not feel “less” compared to others because of his/her weaknesses and failures and does not feel “better” than others because of his/her strengths and successes. Self-acceptance is the hallmark of a healthy relationship with the self.
Relationships
While developing functional-emotional intelligence skills can assist clients in managing their negative responses to the perceived difficult behavior of others, it is particularly beneficial to negate those negative responses.
To better understand and respond to difficult people, it is important to assess the behaviors that are perceived as problematic and discover the strength behind them.
By looking for the strengths behind difficult behaviors and increasing awareness of negative thinking patterns about a particular person, clients can begin to positively reframe those behaviors in a gentle, honest, and accurate way that offers a fresh perspective.
Communication
Feedbackers often worry about hurting the other person’s feelings, coming across as authoritative and not wanting to demotivate or discourage them.
On the other hand, receivers can perceive feedback as personal criticism and a threat to their self-efficacy and self-worth.
Considering emotions and point of view (empathy) of the person receiving the feedback, as an opportunity for growth and learning will instill a sense of hope and faith in the receiver’s capacity for change and improvement (growth mindset).
Mindfulness
Mindfulness practice is the ability to observe thoughts, emotions, and sensations. Rather than being completely immersed in them, individuals learn to see these thoughts, emotions, and sensations as transient states.
Through observing states, one can notice a difference between the states themselves and the person observing them. By entering this observer mode, one can “step outside of one’s immediate experience, thereby changing the very nature of that experience.”
This process has been referred to as de-centring, re-perceiving , and de-automatization to help clients enter this observer mode.
Feelfulness®
Feelfulness is the ability to feel a feeling by choice thus generate a desire state.
Feelfulness is one of the most most rewarding of all skills to quickly achieve the best possible self.
When you learn to allocate your observational resources to what matters most at the task at hand your confidence will increase and you will get a wonderful feeling from the inside out.
When you demonstrate yourself with honor and integrity, it keeps you on the most purposeful and enriching path and generally makes you a happier person.
This is because when you walk firmly in your integrity and your beliefs and behaviors benefit the greatest good is a win-win.
Practitioner's Strenghts
Knowing what your strengths are as a practitioner can help you to leverage them more deliberately and effectively. Strengths can be used to tackle problems or deal with difficult clients.
They can help you build a positive relationship with the client, and they may contribute to the more rapid and natural development of your professional role by putting them to work consciously.
The practitioner’s unique contribution to problem-solving success has been referred to as the “therapist effect.” Indeed, research has shown that a large proportion of intervention outcome is attributable to practitioner difference in approach.

I want a Million Dollars
CAN YOU USE HYPNOSIS TO "MAKE" A MILLION BUCKS?
I got an interesting question from one of our clients today that I thought I'd share with you. They asked, "If the subconscious mind can't question or reject suggestions given through hypnosis, can't we just use it to attract a million dollars and let the subconscious figure out the 'how'?" It's a great question and one that could benefit many.
First off, let's debunk a myth: the subconscious mind can indeed reject suggestions. It doesn't work on logic like our conscious mind but rather on values.
For instance, if someone tried to hypnotize you into doing something harmful, your subconscious would kick in with a solid rejection.
Now, about the million-dollar suggestion. Technically, yes, you can use hypnosis to plant the idea of making a million bucks in a year. But there are a couple of things to consider:
1. Subconscious Alignment:
•Are all layers of your mind aligned with this goal? I'm talking about identities, values, beliefs, potentials, behaviors, and, of course, results. If you only focus on the result without aligning the other layers, the suggestion might not pack much punch. Aligning behaviors and potential actions increases your chances because they have a cascading effect on the results.
•For instance, if you're hypnotized to trade stocks for a million, but you know nada about stocks (Potentials layer), or if your beliefs and values are throwing a wrench in the money-making machinery, it might not work out. It's not your subconscious sabotaging; it's just not in sync.
•That's why, when I do hypnosis, I make sure to cover all layers. Getting them all in alignment is the real key to success.
2. Conscious Receptivity:
•Let's say you're on board with the suggestion. Are you open to receiving guidance from your subconscious on the 'how'? Often, our conscious minds are too loud, drowning out the subtle messages. After aligning, the solution is to take inspired action and let your subconscious guide you along the way.
So, while the idea of manifesting a million dollars through hypnosis is intriguing, it's not a one-and-done deal. It's a process that involves getting all your mental ducks in a row and then staying open to the guidance your subconscious provides.
3. Addressing Potential Challenges:
•Example: Now, picture this: I hypnotize you to take specific actions, like trading stocks, to rake in that million. Sounds great, right? But, if you're clueless about stock trading (Potentials layer), you're likely to fumble through the behavior or, more commonly, not even attempt it.
•Example Continued: And what if you harbor beliefs that making money is "hard" or that you don't deserve financial success? Or perhaps, your childhood experiences etched conflicting values about money in your mind. Maybe your identity is whispering, "Success isn't for me." In these scenarios, attempting the suggested behaviors might go awry, leading to what we label as "self-sabotage."
•Example Continued: It's crucial to note that your subconscious isn't playing the saboteur here. It's just not on the same page as the intended outcome.
•Example Continued: This is precisely why, in my hypnosis sessions, I address all layers of the mind. I want every part – identities, values, beliefs, potentials, behaviors, and results – aligned and working together. It's this harmony that propels you toward the desired outcome.
4. Conscious Receptivity Reiterated:
•Example: Assuming you've accepted the suggestion, the next hurdle is conscious receptivity. Imagine your subconscious mind guiding you on the "how" to achieve that million-dollar goal. Great, right? But here's the catch – many folks drown out this guidance with conscious noise.
•Example Continued: Too often, we second-guess our subconscious minds, letting the chatter of our conscious thoughts cloud the subtle cues. Achieving success through hypnosis requires not just alignment but also a receptive conscious mind.
In essence, it's not merely about planting a suggestion and waiting for magic to happen. It's about understanding and addressing potential roadblocks at every layer of your mind and then staying tuned to the guidance your subconscious offers along the way. This holistic approach maximizes your chances of turning that hypnotic suggestion into a tangible reality.

Hi,
I am Carmen Sauciuc, I've coined the term FeelFulness® in 2011 and I help Practitioners, Coaches and Professionals acquire Functional Emotional Intelligence SKILLS, Quicker with FeelFulness® Techniques to avoid Emotional Contagion and to Master Client Outcome quick and easy in 60 days or less, to achieve peak performance, stay motivated, be confident at whatever it is you do, that you can do better.
To Feel a Feeling by Choice® is the Top Functional Emotional Intelligence Skill to acquire. No one else is teaching this skill. Generating a State of Being through the Power of your Thought-Feelings® with Word Triangles® is for both Therapeutic purpose, Peak Performance and Mastery.
My strategy blends goal-oriented problem-solving functional psychology -through EXPERIENCE (not just theory)- and I am devoted to helping you reach your best potential.
I'll show you how to unleash the power of your Thought-Feelings (R) with Word Triangles (neuro-language) to re-direct your stream of thoughts (thought management) shift your mindset (re-pattern) and create a desired consciousness (Generating States of... ) to productively register (neuroplasticity) in your Muscle Memory (automatic habits).
Because your automatic habits determine the quality of your life and the rate of your success!
I have my own journey to mastery, paved with plenty of struggles but my willingness to overcome these obstacles never wavered.
Perseverance and persistence are my main supporting friends. I've been dealing with several autoimmune conditions that took a lifetime to diagnose and get treatment for; as if that were not enough, a few inattentive people drove straight into my vehicle; but these troubles play just a small part and they do Not define who I Am.
My heroes are Carl Jung, MD, Milton Erickson, MD, William James, PhD, and Martin Seligman PhD, both having dealt with physical illnesses, but despite these challenges they each revolutionized hypnotherapy and functional psychology respectively.
There is something very interesting that happens to people bound by chronic physical conditions: most realize the limitations of the physicalness and begin to expand their mind beyond their ordinary limits.
I am here to revolutionize your though-feeling processes by upgrading your perspectives and provide you with numerous possibilities.
My intuitive and practical methodologies have lasting effects, remodeling your automatic habits. After working in a corporate world with financial systems for over two decades, creating top efficiencies with various systems, I soon came to realize that the human mind is a complex set of systems, generating thoughts, feeling and behaviors, systems which can easily be upgraded, improved and efficient-ized.
I studied, practiced, and got certified in Neuro-Linguistic and Hypnotherapy by the American Board of Hypnotherapy and the American Board of Neuro-Linguistics Programming and trained with the most prestigious Milton H. Erickson Foundation School of Hypnotherapy.
Most people believe that their conscious mind is what runs their show, when in fact it is the subconscious mind that takes care of it all: the subconscious is the operating system without which the conscious mind app would have no ground to run on.
I’m a published author, a Mensa member and I always had a high degree of self-awareness and a great purity of mind; understanding complex subjects coupled with the capability to break them down to smaller pieces for common sense understanding comes easy to me.
I teach and guide through motivation and inspiration, and I believe in "working less while accomplishing more" while my unwavering passion for better-ness inspires others to further their peak performance skill development and increase their well-being. Let me take You to YOUR MASTERY!
All it takes is willingness and I will show you the way…

The Sacred
Working with your most inner sacred space is very important to me. Your inner sacred space is who you are at your core and who you want to be and that has to be addressed in time, in small or medium bites.
William James, Carl Jung, Mircea Eliade, and Rudolf Otto are all scholars who have written extensively about the concept of The Sacred in their respective fields of psychology. While each has a unique perspective, they all share a common interest in understanding the experience of the sacred.
William James believed that The Sacred and God are natural and universal human experience. In his book "The Varieties of Religious Experience," he argues that the sacred is a transcendent and mysterious experience that is beyond our everyday, mundane reality. He describes the sacred as a feeling of awe, wonder, and reverence that people often experience in the presence of something greater than themselves, such as nature, art, or God.
Mircea Eliade in his book "The Sacred and the Profane," distinguishes between the sacred and the profane as two distinct categories of experience. According to Eliade, the sacred refers to a realm of experience that is filled with spiritual meaning and significance, while the profane refers to the everyday, secular world of ordinary experience. He argues that the experience of the sacred is fundamental to human existence and that it provides the sense of orientation and meaning in life. Eliade also suggests that alchemy is a form of "technique of the sacred" that allows the alchemist to access the spiritual realm, and to communicate with the divine. He notes that alchemy, like shamanism, is a "way of becoming sacred" and that it can lead to a state of "cosmic awareness" and "illumination."
The psychological phenomenon of a suddenly appearing, extremely enigmatic, and at the same time fascinating state in which one feels influenced by higher powers was described as a “numinous experience” by Otto and Jung. Rudolf Otto in his book "The Idea of the Holy," describes the sacred as a numinous experience that is characterized by a sense of awe and fascination in the presence of the divine. He argues that the experience of the sacred is distinct from other forms of experience and is characterized by a sense of mystery, transcendence, and ineffability that cannot be fully captured by words or concepts.
Carl Jung states that The Sacred is what helps us to appreciate and enter into a relationship with the numinous aspects of the psyche, or soul. He argued that the experience of the sacred is a fundamental part of human psychology and that it could be accessed through dreams, myths, and symbols and not just through repetition of religious ritual for obligation's sake. Carl Jung’s encounter with The Sacred was feeling the presence of the numinous and states that this feeling forms the center of a whole and fulfilled human life and is central to the process of healing and individuation as he understood it.
Jung states that the wide-spread loss of soul is due to the lack of living numinous experiences and the loss of a spiritual belief system. To Jung and Eliade, religion is not defined through institutionalized practices, but as a personal need to invoke and invite the Sacred into our daily lives. Jung argued that the sacred was not limited to traditional religious obligations to God, but could also be found in secular experiences such as nature, music, sports, and art. He believed that the sacred was a manifestation of the collective unconscious, and that it provided individuals with a sense of meaning and purpose in life.
Jung identified several archetypes that are related to the experience of the sacred, including the Self, the Divine Child, and the Wise Old Man. The Self is the central archetype that represents the integration of the conscious and unconscious aspects of the psyche. Jung believed that the experience of the Self was a transcendent and numinous experience that could be accessed through meditation, prayer, or other spiritual practices. The Divine Child archetype represents the potential for renewal and rebirth in the individual. It is associated with the experience of innocence, wonder, and creativity. The Wise Old Man archetype represents wisdom, insight, and guidance. It is associated with the experience of transcendence and the search for meaning and purpose in life.
Jung believed that the experience of the sacred was an essential part of the individuation process, the journey towards wholeness and integration of the psyche. He believed that individuals who were able to integrate the sacred into their lives were more likely to experience a sense of wholeness, meaning and purpose, and to live a fulfilling life.
Nowadays psychologists use different terminologies to describe the concept of the sacred, depending on their theoretical perspective and research focus. Here are some examples:
1. Transcendence - the experience of going beyond the limits of the everyday self and connecting with something greater than oneself. This can include experiences of awe, wonder, and spiritual insight.
2. Greater Good - the idea that individuals should act in ways that benefit the larger community or society, even if it requires personal sacrifice or inconvenience. The greater good is often associated with ethical and moral values, and is frequently invoked in discussions of social responsibility, justice, and altruism. The concept of the greater good can be seen as a secular expression of the sacred, as it implies a sense of collective purpose and responsibility that transcends individual interests and selfish desires. In some cases, the pursuit of the greater good can be considered a form of spiritual practice, as it involves a commitment to values that are seen as transcendent and meaningful.
3. Peak Experience - a moment of intense joy, creativity, or fulfillment that can be triggered by a variety of activities, such as sports, music, or artistic expression.
4. Numinous Experience - the feeling of awe, reverence, or sacredness that is often associated with encounters with the divine or with sacred objects or places. Numinous experiences can be triggered by a variety of stimuli, such as music, art, nature, or religious rituals.
5. Ultimate Concern - the highest value or purpose that an individual or community holds. It is often associated with religious or spiritual beliefs and can provide a sense of meaning and direction in life.
6. Flow – the state of optimal experience characterized by complete absorption and engagement in a challenging activity. Flow experiences are often associated with creativity, productivity, and enjoyment, and are said to be deeply rewarding and fulfilling. Flow experiences can be triggered by a variety of activities, such as sports, art, music, or work, and are often described as moments of "being in the zone" or "losing oneself" in the task at hand. Many scholars have argued that flow experiences can be considered sacred, as they provide a sense of transcendence and connection with something greater than oneself.
7. Mystical Experience - a type of spiritual experience characterized by a sense of unity or oneness with the divine or with all things. Mystical experiences often involve feelings of transcendence, ineffability, and intense emotional arousal.
