Hypnosis in combination with the body-oriented\u00a0 approach of Somatic Experiencing\u00ae makes it possible to let go blockages, anxieties and patterns that are deeply stored as body memory. The focus is not only on inner images and emotions, but also on the underlying body sensations, which can then be positively transformed in the process.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=&#8221;Who is hypnosis and Somatic Experiencing\u00ae suitable for?&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;1748970003317-ca509f20-6310&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]Hypnosis and Somatic Experiencing\u00ae is aimed at anyone who wants to change something in themselves, such as disruptive behavior patterns, negative beliefs, lack of self-esteem, fears and panic (e.g. fear of loss, fear of flying and heights, fear of tunnels, fear of presenting in front of an audience, exam nerves, social anxiety), unexplained pain, birth trauma (your own birth or the birth of a child), grief and loss of a person or a beloved animal. Operations or accidents can also suddenly change our lives.<\/p>\n<p>If you are not sure, give me a call and we can discuss whether hypnotherapy and Somatic Experiencing\u00ae are suitable and whether I am the right person for you.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-fine-art-of-hypnosis.ch\/en\/hypnosis\/\">more information<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=&#8221;What requirements do I need to meet?&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;1748970859489-ef2f3711-6fef&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]Just be open and curious about a process that we will go through together.
