OUR PROGRAMS -

Our +350 programs are written & recorded in original interactive self-hypnosis that was designed by Elizabeth Bohorquez, RN, C.Ht, President & Program Designer.  This type of self-hypnosis allows the listener to change mind programs in a trance state as well as "in the moment."  Each program teaches these techniques in actual trance work.

Here are a few links to programs designed specifically for our Pain Management Department.  Click on the link for a description of the program.  A full list can be found by clicking on the top link in the yellow column.

Managing Social & People Anxiety - Shyness

Fear of Public Speaking & Making Presentations

Fear of Phone Calling & Sales

Managing Trauma: Moving from Depression & Fear

Fear of Flying

If you have a phobia or fear,  it is imperative that you learn to manage your mind & body connection "in the moment", as well as future-pace your subconscious mind with interactive self-hypnotic programs.

There are many kinds of phobias & while some individuals may need medication, there is much one can do for themselves.  This personal power relieves much of the perceived fear, that is often the trigger to the phobia itself. Keep in mind that whatever you image in your mind is REAL for your body physiology.  That is why you can react strongly to your fear EVEN WHEN it is nowhere in sight.  

Knowledge is king. Here you will be introduced to  actual tools including interactive hypnosis, imagery, awareness meditation & the nutritional link to the workings of your mind & body connections! 

Many individuals with phobias also have habits that are conducive to producing stress chemicals.  These include food, sugar, alcohol, smoking, drugs & even prescription medications.

I hope that you choose to work with our free groups & also our extensive audio work for managing your phobic issues, as well as other areas of your life. They are affordable & can change the outcomes of your life experiences.

Mind-Body Fitness Boot Camp

ABOUT SELF-HYPNOSIS
Self-hypnosis is a vital key to change.    We utilize it all the time, but for most of us the application is negative & not positive.   Lifestyle change & enhanced performance should be in the cards for most of us, but as we know from experience this is easier said than done.  That is about to change...

Knowledge is king. Here you will be introduced to  actual tools including interactive hypnosis, imagery, awareness meditation & the nutritional link to the workings of your mind & body connections! 
 
 Hypnosis has been a part of the practice of medicine for hundreds of years & the practice of visualization has been traced almost to the beginning of time.  All hypnosis is self-hypnosis.  We are actually in hypnotic trance most of our waking day & it is the purpose of the skilled hypnotist to actually wake the individual from his or her imposed automatic pilot trance state & help the person to focus inwardly & direct change.

On this pages & in your work with our groups,  you will learn more about hypnotic technique, it's history, uses & how Interactive Self-Hypnosis allows you to practice this valuable tool in any moment during your day, giving you hundreds of opportunities to program your subconscious mind for change.

Emotional States & Their Crayons
Elizabeth Bohorquez, RN, C.Ht

Without a doubt, the ultimate key to high level functioning and performance in all areas of life is emotional management. With just a couple of new tools on your belt, that of Interactive Awareness© and Interactive Self-hypnosis©, you can be on your way to a smoother emotional life. Interactive Awareness is like having a new pair of glasses, allowing you to relax deeply and to see very clearly in the moment. Interactive Self-hypnosis is a powerful change tool that utilizes active imagery in combination with deep relaxation right in the moment. This pair forms a perfect conduit for managing emotions of all varieties.
 
When working with  Interactive Self-Hypnosis you learn to disassociate, or separate yourself from your emotional state. It helps to understand that you are not your emotions. Emotions are simply a part of you that needs management, even when the presenting emotion is positive! Here you will be re-introduced to your as if they were children wearing tee shirts with their names embroidered on the front for clear identification. Emotions spend their day coloring experiences. Sometimes the colors work well and other times not so well.  On occasion the crayon colors are too heavy and other times too light. And if the emotion holds the crayon too tight, or presses too hard the crayon can break and you might experience this as a complete loss of control of your emotional self.

As you begin to look around the world, as well as at your own behaviors with your new perspective eyeglasses, you will spot some pretty interesting emotional states and their crayons.  Remember, the more you are willing to see, the better for you.

Knowledge is key. Working with emotional states is a skill just like anything else. We have emotions that work in a positive way for us, and others that don’t. These are often called negative emotions, but it’s important to keep in mind that even negative ones also have their good points and can be useful in certain situations. You’ll come to understand that these emotions can help to open the subconscious mind through releasing.

When looking at emotional states it’s a good idea to know that there are hundreds of them. Few people can name more than twenty. . Some emotions are experienced as having negative high-power such as anger. You also have positive high-powered emotions as well, for example ecstasy could be considered in that group. You also have negative lower-powered emotions, for example annoyance and on the positive side you might consider the emotion of being pleasant. Sometimes the momentary experience is about the choice of emotion and other times it’s about the intensity of the crayoning.

Interactive Awareness Practice helps us to see the details and what is truly unfolding in the moment. How good are your self-observation skills? While most of us can name or describe our high-powered positive and negative emotions, most of us fall short when it comes to the lower-powered ones. This is most unfortunate because these are the emotions that hang around more frequently, coloring daily experiences, and are usually the ones responsible for stress related diseases and interfering with goal achievement. We often call them our personality traits, often believing that they can’t be changed because "they are who we are." This in itself conjures up some interesting images. For example, what would happen if one’s anger, resentment and failure programs were diminished or removed? Would they evaporate? This is a living example of how "nonsense language" finds it’s way into our subconscious mind programs.

It helps to see emotions like visitors who knock at your door. You can choose who want to invite inside, as well as the decorum you expect or need in any moment. In the practice of interactive self-hypnosis we can isolate moments and work with them as separate entities. If you look closely enough with your new perspective eyeglasses, you will notice that each moment has a separate goal, something you want and that each moment has emotions present that are holding specific crayons. So, this is all about choice. What does your goal look like, what emotions and/or crayons are best in this moment? You might have to give up some automatic pilot programming if you want the goal. This is maturity and the ability to see your outcomes very clearly. This is self-development and self-growth.

How good are you at naming your emotions? Remember that you have both negative and positive ones. Some are big and some are small. Do keep in mind that they all have crayons! As you become skilled with your new tools of Interactive Awareness and Interactive Self-Hypnosis you will be able to wake up to what works for you, coloring you towards your goals. And if your crayons aren’t working for you, you can simply choose to change colors… right in the moment.
