WELLNESS COACH HOLISTICALLY EMPOWERS CHANGE
Jacqueline LeClaire Wellness Coach HOLISTICALLY
Empowers Change
by Sheila Julson
As a holistic lifestyle coach for more than 25 years, Jacqueline LeClaire of Results Wellness Center, LLC understands that change can be intimidating. Using a warm, personable approach, LeClaire looks at each client individually as a whole person and uniquely combines hypnotherapy, reiki, intuitive readings, yoga, chakra balancing, crystal healing, fitness and esogetic colorpuncture to steer clients toward a forward path.
LeClaire started building a solid client base while working as a fitness coach, teaching weight training and cardiovascular exercises. While dating a chiropractor, LeClaire became intrigued by how he had used hypnotherapy to help his patients meditate and find relief from stress. She became a Certified Hypnotherapist and worked for many years from an office in North Arlington, New Jersey.
LeClaire notes that hypnosis often conjures up images of parlor tricks and levitation for entertainment purposes, but hypnotherapy can foster change of habit and help people quit smoking and reduce cravings for unhealthy foods, as well as alter compulsive habits that developed subconsciously, like nail biting or negative thinking that limits self-growth.
“Hypnotherapy drills into the subconscious mind while you’re in a state of deep relaxation,” LeClaire explains. While one is in this deeply relaxed, meditative state, the subconscious mind is more susceptible to absorbing positive suggestions or affirmations and can thus be conditioned into letting go of ingrained habits.
Reiki is an ancient Japanese healing technique that focuses on stress reduction and relaxation. “Reiki is the word for universal life force energy,” LeClaire says. Clients lie fully clothed on a table while the practitioner facilitates the body’s healing process through gentle touch. When the mind and body is calm and deeply relaxed, the body’s energy, or chakras, become unblocked. Reiki can be used to ease pain, anxiety, depression and fatigue. While it’s most beneficial to experience hypnotherapy or reiki in person, LeClaire notes that these therapies can also be performed virtually. LeClaire also offers yoga classes, fitness and nutrition coaching, and esogetic colorpuncture, a system to healing that uses a device to focus on points and zones on the skin to transmit light through the body’s energetic pathways. “I felt led toward each of these holistic energy healing modalities through people that had influenced me over the years and whom I’ve intersected with throughout life,” she says. She offers free phone consults and customizes individualized plans for each client.
During the pandemic, LeClaire says that more people are seeking ways to promote self-healing and spiritual, physical and emotional stability. She works with people that feel overwhelmed and are seeking ways to cope; people that want to make lifestyle changes; and cancer patients that want to support their conventional treatments with holistic modalities.
“I meet people where they’re at. I read their energy and try to figure out where they are blocked,” LeClaire concludes. “I don’t want to overwhelm them but instead try to put them on the path forward by eliminating negative thinking. If something’s not working, I’ll try a different approach. I give them MP3 music, mediation techniques and mantras—all the tools they need to continue healing outside of my office.”
LeClaire is also a teacher; she regularly offers classes to instruct others to become Reiki Level I, Level II or Reiki Master practitioners. She also teaches hypnotherapist certification classes to people that want to learn the therapeutic art for personal development, for expanding coaching skills, or for communicators seeking to add depth to their toolbox. This summer and autumn, LeClaire will add more classes to train people how to give reiki and hypnotherapy to others, how to teach physic abilities and how do energy readings to help more people connect with their spiritual selves.
