“Priceless, life-changing, mind-blowing, unique. There is no course like this that also addresses spiritual issues. This course will touch your heart in more ways than you ever thought possible. I had absolutely no idea that this course would and has changed my life. This course went above and beyond what I expected.
Tracy Brannon (Class of 2014)
“This course is for those interested, in both a professional and personal level, in Hypnotherapy. It will give you the skills to feel confident in delivering varying therapeutic sessions for a wide variety of issues/problems, and also give you the valuable tools to develop your “self”. I have really enjoyed this course and especially the personal teachings from Costa and Susan (words of wisdom!).
Claire Shaw (Class of 2014)
“The procedures for each (client) session were thorough and detailed, and a very practical approach, so could easily be followed and used in training. practice and with clients. The level of detail in all aspects of Hypnotherapy, working with clients and business practice was unexpected, but well done and appreciated.
Valentia Lithryn (Class of 2017)
“I particularly liked:

- the Practicals / demonstrations
- excellent handouts
- the mix of clinical / spiritual / holistic approach
- getting to know everyone in the group
- the conviviality

I’m an idealist / perfectionist trying to NOT have expectations. Subconsciously, I knew the Course would shift stuff - I didn’t expect the shifts to be so massive! Consciously, I hoped it would give me new tools to use and in this respect the course exceeded my expectations. A mind, body, soul blower! You have only your phobias to lose! It reaches the parts other courses can’t reach...
