“You use hypnosis not as a cure but as a means of establishing a favorable climate in which to learn” – Milton Erickson
The world needs more well trained and passionate hypnotists to help people reach their goals and overcome limiting thinking.
Unlike other career path the time and financial investment to become a hypnotist yields three wonderful outcome: meaningful work, comfortable lifestyle, and flexible schedule. Not only do you help other people to be more successful, but you help yourself too. The traditional paths forward for young adults are daunting than ever. Schools are more expensive. This career path is different, it’s easy!
And the demand for hypnosis continues to grow rapidly.
Have you heard of hypnosis but hesitated to dive into it as a new career path?
Starting a brand new hypnotherapy practice means:
Are you currently in the holistic field and looking to add value to your practice?
Maybe you’re a therapist, life coach, yoga teacher, or other holistic practitioner looking to extend the benefits of hypnosis to your current clients.
Are you ready to advance your current career as a hypnotherapist?
Learn from one of the best in the industry! Take away everything Kristin Shelly has learned over the past decade, taught via LIVE Zoom calls. This course is packed with tons of insider knowledge in both hypnotherapy and best business practices.
The field of hypnosis is currently experiencing a resurgence of popularity both in the medical fields and as a healing modality. It is one of the only therapies that can be done virtually and it’s in more demand than ever.
Most of us have had to adjust a part of our lifestyle since Covid-19, whether that’s work life, home life, or some combination of the two. Due to health conditions and general guidelines, many of us have benefited from virtual meetings and delivery services. As hypnotists, our main tool is our voice. Therefore we can work virtually just as effectively during this time of social distancing! It’s not only a great career to provide a fantastic income but can easily be done over Zoom meetings. I’ve found this can lend an even deeper level of relaxation to clients who are in the comfort of their own homes.
“I have really enjoyed my sessions with Kristin, especially the ability to use the recordings afterwards. She is a true artist who cares about her art and I am benefiting so much from it! I highly recommend seeing Kristin with an open mind.”
-Laryssa LaPorte (Zoom Testimonial)
The truth is …..Everyone can benefit from hypnosis!
Top athletes and business professionals have been using hypnosis for decades to get the edge on the competition. But it is also perfect for regular people who believe there is a natural state of balance and harmony in our being.
The behavior chain goes like this: Triggers → Thoughts → Actions → Consequences
Your thoughts are ultimately what control your actions. Control what you think and you’ll master what you do. If you need to overcome a habit or phobia, reduce anxiety, or perform at your best, hypnosis can help you achieve your ideal thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
Hypnosis for addictions works by relaxing the client, helping them access their unconscious mind, and to guiding them away from harmful behaviors and towards more positive and helpful ones.
Hypnosis for phobias works by detaching the stimulus (trigger object) from the emotional response (fear) and ‘updating’ the brain with a new, more realistic response.
Habits reside in the subconscious mind. In hypnosis, you release these habits and replace them with positive images, perceptions, sounds or feelings, creating a new program.
Hypnotherapy for trauma and abuse goes right to the root of the issues. Trauma imprints upon the brain and body. Hypnosis can access these root causes in the subconscious mind, then process, release and transform them.
We all experience negative self-talk through unhealthy patterns in relationships, conversations and circumstances. Hypnosis can reprogram these old patterns in your subconscious mind, redirecting you to more deeply trust and believe in yourself.
Hypnosis helps bring awareness to the deeper source of difficulties and helps you learn to cope with conflict and manage difficult emotions more easily. Hypnosis session done in partnership or individually.
Bullying can have severe effects on self-esteem. It can produce feelings of worry, anxiety and anger. Hypnosis helps process and eliminate negative emotions caused by bullying, by boosting confidence and self-esteem.
We all hold emotional attachments. Sometimes when someone is emotionally attached, they cannot see beyond what they feel. Hypnosis can lend perspective and provide clients with confidence, enabling them to take back their power.

“Maybe you call it the organizing principle of the Universe, or the qualities of the divine, but there is a part of us who knows perfection, seeks beauty, goodness, harmony, reason, and peace. We are always trying to improve; it’s an evolutionary impulse. Hypnosis, if used correctly, aligns itself with these qualities, and emboldens them.”
Kristin Shelly, CH, CI
Just like many people, I love travel, photography, painting, and nature. Owning my own practice allows me to have the flexibility in both my schedule and finances, and allows me to spend more time doing the activities I love, with the people I care about.
“My sister-in-law had great success quitting smoking about 15 years ago through hypnosis. She has stayed quit until this very day! That always stuck in my mind. About three months ago, I decided to try hypnosis for sugar cravings. Very similar to nicotine cravings as far as I was concerned. I noticed immediate Improvement, a change that has lasted now over three months! I was and am amazed! I tried 2 more sessions since then, one for self-confidence and one for joyfulness.. it works!”
-Tabitha Pope
Sugar Cravings
“I had dipped Copenhagen for 35 years. I feel as if there was nothing left for me to try to break this addiction. During a conversation with a friend about hypnosis I learned that Kristin’s hypnosis had worked for a few people she knew. This encouraged me but I was reluctant as well. Kristin’s sessions and the recordings that she sent me really made a difference in calming me while I was going through the quitting process. I know I would not have made it through the first week without her sessions. 28 days quit.”
-Stewart Nicholson
Nicotine Cessation
“Kristin is a powerful hypnotist. I am not easily hypnotized but I went very deep in our session. I was really impressed with the amount of time and care she took to help me discover and decide what to work on. I highly recommend Kristin for hypnosis and making real change in your life”
-Damien Dickinson
Goal Planning, Business Development
“My experience with Kristin Shelly was remarkable. From the lovely office space to her soothing voice and presence, I was beyond comfortable. In three sessions I was able to kick a 25 year habit of cigarette smoking, which I thought I’d never be able to do. Kristin is kind, caring, and accomodating. She always offers a few options for seating and blankets. I’m so grateful to have met Kristin and always enjoy our time together.”
-Melanie Owen
Nicotine Cessation
“As you pursue your career as a hypnotist, you’ll notice a pattern. We all have the same troubles, the same aspirations which present themselves in different ways. We all want less fear, negativity, and strain. We all want more peace, positivity, and ease. We all intrinsically know when something is out of balance. We yearn for balance, and in that sense, we already know how we want to be.”
“I care about my clients and I care about my students. As I read back through the last nine years of testimonials, a theme emerges…My clients feel safe, heard, and cared about. I couldn’t be more happy about that feedback. Those qualities are the foundation for healing.”
-Kristin Shelly CH, CI
