Fix Your Negative Thoughts and Traumas with Cognitive Hypnotherapy - with Trevor Silvester

Break anxiety, phobias, addictions and gain control over anything in your life with cognitive hypnotherapy.“Potentially anything that the mind creates, cognitive hypnotherapy can help with” –Trevor SilvesterCan’t stop biting your nails? Constantly feeling down or anxious? Struggling to lose weight? Can’t kick that addiction? Try cognitive hypnotherapy!When Trevor Silvester founded the Quest Institute, he introduced the idea of combining hypnosis with cognitive behavioural therapy, and the results have been extraordinary. This breakthrough method of therapy doesn’t just treat symptoms with a one–size–fits–all approach, it gets to the root cause of a person’s issues–and gives them the tools to gain control over anything in their life.Trevor’s innovative therapy approach turned Tim’s life around, helping him sell a company, get into biohacking, and better understand those around him. That success compelled Tim to join Quest as a practitioner, and Trevor became his mentor for more than five years.In this episode, Trevor explains the hypnotic language of wordweaving, a tool that gave Tim the life-changing line, “follow the fun.” The conversation explores the different trance states we all live in, and how cognitive hypnotherapy isn’t about hypnotising you to get better, but de-hypnotising you from what you thought was wrong.And, as Trevor explains, we each have the answer to solve our own problems locked within us.Highlights(2:39) What you can achieve by knowing cognitive hypnotherapy(7:38) What IS cognitive hypnotherapy?(14:01) Everyday trance states(19:24) Yes, you CAN be hypnotised(25:52) What issues can cog hyp treat?(32:54) The story of Mrs Toothbrush(39:14) The hypnotic language of wordweaving(44:21) Tim’s major breakthrough; “follow the fun”(48:08) An actionable take-home messageVisit: https://www.questinstitute.co.uk/ Sponsor: Shout out to our episode sponsor CAROL Bike!
