Spark an Awakening with Depth Hypnosis Therapy

Depth Hypnosis is a counseling model developed by Isa Gucciardi, PhD that integrates Shamanism, Buddhism, Energy Medicine, and Transpersonal Psychology. A client does not need experience, knowledge, or belief in any of these areas to receive the benefits of Depth Hypnosis. In a Depth Hypnosis session, we discuss issues you’d like to work on and what affect they are having on your life. We use this information to go into an altered, meditative state and work on the subconscious level. You can think of this like a deep state where you are fully conscious and aware, but the busy working mind is taking a well-deserved break. 

Working on the subconscious level allows us to see where patterns emerged from and how to unravel them, as well as identify and heal past trauma. Although talk therapy has many benefits and should not be discounted, Depth Hypnosis, avoids talking at length about the trauma and cuts to the chase to allow the healing to occur much quicker.  The committed client can expect to see a shift within 3-5 sessions.  Most clients come every week and others come every few weeks and/or as needed.  As with everything in life, you get out (of each session) what you put in.

In session, the practitioner and client work as a team. The practitioner is not doing the work or healing for the client, but rather assisting the client as they learn to be their own healer. Depth Hypnosis empowers the client and reminds us that we all have the necessary tools within us.

Depth Hypnosis encourages radical self-responsibility and engages clients in a process of self-empowerment through self-knowledge. As clients navigate their psyches through hypnosis, insight inquiry, regression, dream work, meditation, or the shamanic journey; The Depth Hypnosis practitioner helps the client interpret their subconscious material. By doing so, the client and practitioner gain a deeper understanding of the obstacles that are creating disharmony in the client’s life.

Depth Hypnosis works on all levels – physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. It complements well with other practices and beliefs. Depth Hypnosis works for all areas and issues we – including children – are dealing with. From habits to relationship patterns to health issues and addictions to abuse and trauma – this practice allows for the client to come back into wholeness without living from one’s wounding.

Antidote for Zoom Fatigue

Video conferencing has become the norm and is the way we live these days. It’s as if we’re living in the Jetsons era (I’m dating myself). It’s also draining and exhausting. People are increasingly experiencing burnout from endless video conferencing – a phenomenon coined as “Zoom Fatigue” and it is real. Today, Zoom is not just being used for work; it’s also how people connect with friends; participate in group fitness; attend life events like weddings, graduations, and even funerals; enjoy social activities (Zoom Happy Hour, anyone?); and go to school. We need to bring back human connection and re-integrate personal care. Although I’m not an expert at this, I know first-hand how this improves my work capacity and I’m sharing a few of my learnings with you.

Create a ritual to think, process and plan

Zoom fatigue is a mental and physical challenge. Consider blocking time at the beginning of your day – before Zoom fatigue settles in – to think, process, and/or plan your day. Even if this is a 30-minute break – do it. Use the time to preview your day, identify 2-3 work tasks to complete that day. Or perhaps you need that time to focus entirely on a deliverable that needs your undivided attention and fresh eyes. Going into your day with a sense of direction will help the day run smoothly. Treat this time as a daily ritual to start your day grounded.
ANCHOR

Take your pulse and break up your day

It’s easy to fall into the pattern of scheduling or attending back-to-back meetings. Stop. This is a fast track to Zoom fatigue. Instead, break up your day. Make time – even if that means scheduling it – to figuratively take your pulse and recharge before the next meeting. Check within and see what you need and do that. If you need time alone, take it. If you need food, get it. If you need time with a real, live person, make it happen (safely, of course). If you hit a mental block, go outside in nature. Individuals who take personal breaks during the day are more likely to end the day feeling productive and alive.

Setup guideposts and step away

Now more than ever, your day should be different from your evening, and your weekday should be different from your weekend. Make time to nurture yourself, your friendships, or even your interests. Preparing and enjoying a family dinner may help slow your roll and focus on what matters most. Perhaps getting your hands in the dirt and grooming your garden is a beautiful way to fuel your soul and start your weekend. Perhaps a long hike or run with a neighbor or friend fills your bucket and warms your heart. Maybe picking up a hobby like knitting, woodworking or writing brings you peace of mind. Conceivably all these activities allow you to disconnect and provide mental and emotional relief. Remember by taking care of yourself, you have the clarity to take care of others. Excessive zooming is draining. Zoom is also a remarkable tool that allows us to easily connect more so than ever before. It helps us keep working, keep laughing, keep sharing, keep learning, and keep smiling. So, although I still feel like I’m living an episode of the Jetsons – I’m grateful for this tool and how it has reminded me of the importance of human connection and self-care. Take care of yourself and keep Zooming! -Erica
