The Original You: Trauma Healing & De-conditioning Through Hypnotherapy

In this episode, we dive into the real world of hypnotherapy — far from stage tricks or swinging watches, and back to its ancient roots in the healing temples of Egypt and Greece. Modern hypnotherapy, shaped by Mesmer, Braid and Erickson, blends psychology, neuroscience and the art of working safely with the subconscious.

Hypnotherapy isn’t about losing control — it’s about reclaiming it.
By guiding us into a natural, focused state of awareness, it opens the doorway to the subconscious, where trauma imprints, fear patterns and old conditioning often live. From here, gentle suggestion, imagery and deep relaxation help the brain form new pathways, release old stories and restore emotional freedom.

We explore:

• What hypnotherapy truly is (and isn’t)

• How it supports trauma healing

• Why the subconscious is key to lasting change

• The science of re-patterning protective responses

• Reconnecting with the original, authentic self beneath conditioning

This conversation is about integration, nervous system repair and reshaping your life from truth, not trauma.
