You need to use hypnobreath work to heal because if you've been numbing out, if you have a big ego, if you have a lot of protective strategies, you can't get into that higher state of clarity because all of that energy is just working on suppressing that ability to access your highest states.
So you have to heal first and then you can start to make creative connections and discover how your skills and your experiences and your obstacles and then turning those outwards will help you discover your purpose.
Thanks for having me, John.
Yeah, I think for me, it was definitely when I got to the peak of the mountain, I had a very clear goal that I wanted to be an account director on one of the biggest brands in the world at the best agency in the world. So when I was an account director on Google at a creative agency called Anomaly, I just thought I would feel so fulfilled once I got there.
And I thought I'd be so proud of myself and I would just feel accomplished and my life would have meaning. And instead, as soon as I got that title and I got the projects and the recognition, I was just like, okay, what's next? What's the next goal? What's the next promotion? What's the next metric I need to hit?
And I realized that I even tried then to go client side on the global marketing team at Bacardi. And that was a really glamorous job. And after a couple months of that, I was like, all right, what am I going to do next? And there was never a moment where I felt truly fulfilled. It just felt insatiable. It felt very empty. And that's what forced me to start looking inward.
I recognized that I didn't have gratitude for where I was. And I was numbing myself out with a lot of different coping mechanisms because I was working extremely hard. It was very fast paced. And then I would get to what I was working really hard for. And there was no...
internal reward so apathy a little bit of disconnection some aloofness too because i just wasn't attuned to my feelings there was also substances that i was using that was numbing me out as well so it was just a mixed bag just what kind of happens when you're on the hamster wheel and you're just in this conditioned autopilot mindset and not really attuned to yourself and your values
Can I ask John if you've experienced breathwork before? Have you done it?
I've read about Navy SEAL training doing breathwork and specifically box breathing. The style of breathwork that I really resonated with or that I started off with was holotropic breathwork. So that's a really intense experiential therapy.
where you're releasing suppressed emotions, you're healing childhood memories, everything that you've basically been storing and holding onto in your body comes out and it's extremely cathartic. But again, it's very intense.
So I was very fascinated by physiologically what was happening in my body, psychologically, the patterns and the insights and the awareness that were coming into the forefront. And I just found that in talk therapy, I was aware of my patterns and my behaviors and my voids, but it wasn't changing my behaviors in terms of what my nervous system was still attracted to.
and i needed something deeper and this breath work just took me right there it took me to the source of emotions it just brought to light so many things that i had really buried in my subconscious and so i became really fascinated by it i studied it around the world i traveled i tried all the different instructors and the different styles and i realized that there was a missing piece there was a gap
for people to really understand what was happening in a session and how to actually change their life. And so that's where the hypnosis comes in. It's just very specific vocal cues to help people focus their mind and rewire some of those negative patterns.
It's a great question. So breathwork on its own is completely transformative and extremely powerful. So you could just do two inhales, one exhale, laying down by yourself, no music, no facilitator, and you'll feel releases, you'll feel tingling, you'll feel physical sensations, and you'll likely access some memories or some visions. So alone, that style of breathwork is incredibly healing.
Now, the hypnosis, again, helps with the specific focal points and intentions so we can start to rewire and reprogram the mind. And I find that it's really hard for people to just skip to having a positive mindset and having positive affirmations. They first need to release some of the fear, some of the shame, some of the guilt, the self-doubt.
So that's what we really do in the middle of a journey with the hypnotic suggestions. And then the visioning comes at the end where we have you see that expansive vision for your life.
I think a lot of the reason that people get stuck in habitual thought loops or anxiety or depression is because they're either reminiscing too much about the past or they're just stuck and they just feel lost and they don't have a clear roadmap and clear direction for the future.
So once we're clearing out the emotion, we're reprogramming the limiting belief, then the last part of the session is seeing the life that you want to create. seeing the goals already attained, feeling the emotion of what that would be like when you're on the stage or you have your own company, it's successful, that home, that family, whatever that looks like.
And then the very last part of every single hypno breathwork session is what is your next intuitive action step towards that goal, towards that life, towards your higher self. And now they have a very clear, tangible action item. And if you do that every single morning for 20 minutes, You will be so clear.
