HipGnosis

You notice that you would like to start exercising. So you make a goal and a plan. You even go sign up at the gym. And you get all pumped up and go work out and it feels good! And then… somehow, it’s a lot harder to go the next day. You get all deflated and find yourself at the gym less and less. And soon after, even looking at the gym membership card gives you a mild anxiety attack.

You would like to quit smoking. Everybody’s telling you you should. It’s so bad for you, you’ll die a horrible, slow death, who smokes in 2012 anymore anyway, blah blah blah… Well obviously, you know all of that. Because you’re not stupid. And you’ve even earnestly tried to quit a few times. But somehow, though there’s a part of you that would like to change, the rest of you ain’t cooperating…

You walk around in a fog of anxiety. That thing that you’re worried about. Or  having to do that other thing that you’re absolutely dreading. You can think through the problem logically but somehow that’s not helpful and you want to punch everyone who tells you to just take it easy…

+ We relax and play our way into change instead of push or work through things.
+ We access incredibly deep, meditative states of understanding and peace without actually having to meditate.+ We deal with patterns instead of ‘problems’.
+ We get change in a shockingly short time.
+ Despite the mind-boggling depth of transformations that occurs, there is often lots of laughter.
+ Sometimes, happy tears, too.

That’s where HipGnosis comes in.

(Hooray!)HipGnosis is an integrative approach to all sorts of magical transformation. It combines principles classical hypnosis (trance states to access the unconscious mind) with neurolinguistic programming, play and mind-body training. It works as if you somehow downloaded a hidden control panel to your body + mind so that you had unimpeded access to the hidden layers of your awareness to change whatever you want.

I spent a lot of time in the academic study of human consciousness, mental health and well-being. I have a BA in Eastern religion, a master’s degree in public health, spent time doing research and published some psychiatry-related academic articles while I was there. Then after I decided to go rogue, I trained at the Center for Integrative Hypnosis, being certified as a clinical hypnotist through the National Guild of Hypnotists and as an Integrative Life Coach through the International Association of Counselors and Therapists. Here, I learned not only hypnosis but a range of wacky, mind-blowing techniques to shift a surprising number of things.

The Me-In-My-Natural-Element version:
Because I had been hurting a lot throughout my life, struggling with mental illness and normal human stuff; I don’t like to hurt and I learned lots of things that really, really help. And I like to play and goof off because I never stopped being 6 years old. Naturally, I had to build a House in which I could help people stop hurting with ninja techniques while playing.

“Simone is a real-life fairy godmother, but not the goofy Cinderella kind who waves her wand to grant a wish. Simone is the kind of fairy godmother that has a magic box of keys, and if you trust her and her methods, she can unerringly find the key that unlocks and lifts whatever curse you’ve been saddled with. For me, a 30-year curse was transformed into something of such beauty, I still occasionally catch my breath in awe.” — Risa Wolf (click for more praise for HipGnosis)

Want to play with me?

Because that would be really fun.

My current 1-on-1 HipGnosis session offerings are either in person (if you’re in New York City or can come here) or through Skype. As long as you have a decent webcam and internet connection and we can see each other clearly, there’s no difference!

[A HipGnotic Toolkit] A Single Session: $100

Shift massive amounts of stuff, get completely surprising insights, and learn a whole bunch of self-HipGnosis techniques to keep using on yourself to re-wire your brain for the rest of your life. The session is set up so that the impact of what we’ve done together continues to magnify afterwards. Lasts 1 to 1:15 hours.

[Deep Play] 3-Session Package: $250

All of the above, except we go even deeper. This is where you might encounter some of my most powerful hypnosis (yes, with the correct spelling) techniques to sink right into the heart of your unconscious mind and play. Deep healing, thunderous epiphanies, moments of understanding so intense they feel almost religious have been known to happen.

[Solve Your Entire Life*] 6-Session Package: $450

All of the above, plus strategic, systematic and macro-level brain-reprogram over a 6-week period for you to be and get whatever you want. Become a ninja at problem-solving and pattern-shifting. This is really powerful stuff.

(*The whole ‘solve your life’ thing is kind of a joke but not really. One of my coaching clients and I were laughing about how we “solved the entirety of her life” by week 6 and we had nothing else to talk about**. So that’s where this comes from.)

((**Yeah, of course stuff is going to come up again. Because we’re human. But after working with me for 6 weeks, she had dissolved so many of the foundational stucknesses and acquired so many tools for dealing with new ones that she felt, well, ‘set up’ splendidly for the rest of her life.))

 

 

 

Oh, also? If you are super duper interested but the cost seems prohibitive, don’t let it stop you. Please let me know by emailing me (address right below). I do sliding scales for friends of Ollie (and if you email me, you’ll be friends with both of us!)

Prepare to be extremely relaxed… Once you have made the payment, I will send you an email to schedule our (play!) sessions together. But not before doing a little happy dance about getting to connect with you.
