ACADEMY OF HYPNOTIC SCIENCE
H
ypnotherapy in Australia is growing in popularity — and growing fast. Every day people are using it to give up smoking, to lose weight, to overcome fears, phobias and addictions, to reduce social anxiety and stress, to study more effectively — even to improve their golf game! Did you know that you could become a clinical hypnotherapist, and graduate with government-accredited training, in 2016 — able to launch and grow your own private practice? In no time at all, you’ll be seeing as many clients as you wish and being your own boss in one of the world’s most satisfying careers: helping people. The Academy of Hypnotic Science is based in Melbourne and is Australia’s biggest and best provider of government-accredited training in clinical hypnotherapy. Every year it takes students from all walks of life: retirees and students, working mums and working dads, those looking for a new career and those looking for a first career, those with experience in therapies such as massage and those with none at all. You don’t need a medical or psychology background and you don’t need to be an academic. You just need to enjoy helping people. Its courses are governmentaccredited, which means that as a graduate with experience seeing clients you can get: clinical membership of Australia’s national professional hypnotherapy associations; insurance to practise; and even your own private health provider number. You’ll only train as a hypnotherapist once, so doesn’t it make sense to make sure what you’re doing has real credibility?
Depending on your circumstances, you may qualify for government funding, which can take more than AU$5000 off the cost of the course — and you don’t even have to pay it back. The Academy of Hypnotic Science offers weekday and weekend courses and you can be fully qualified in as short a time as six months, ready to start seeing your own paying clients. You’re also welcome to start your new career in rooms at the Academy in Cheltenham, Victoria, to help kick-start your new practice. The comprehensive course will teach you: How to induce and deepen trance Advanced Ericksonian hypnosis techniques How to use counselling skills to achieve great results with your clients How to help clients stop smoking, manage weight and overcome insomnia, anxieties, pain and phobias How to launch and grow your own clinical hypnotherapy practice Hypnosis is fast, safe and simple, and a long way from the “cluck like a chicken” ideas that many people have about it. Basically, it enables you to enter a daydream-type state and, in so doing, switch off your critical and analytical thinking and open up your subconscious to new, more useful ways of thinking. When delivered properly by a well-trained clinical hypnotherapist (like graduates of the Academy of Hypnotic Science), it’s a fast and effective way of working on problems that may have remained stubbornly inaccessible to more cognitive forms of therapy (or to drugs, which often don’t treat the underlying causes of the symptoms).
Want to find out more? Visit ahs.edu. au, look at the Academy’s Facebook page, facebook.com/AcademyHypnoticScience and then why not come along to the next Open Evening? It’s free (though you do have to register) and you can have a look around at the facilities, meet the trainers and some graduates and ask anything that’s on your mind. To book your place at the next Open Evening, go to academyopenevening. eventbrite.com.au. Alternatively, chat with the friendly enrolments manager Anette by emailing wellbeing@ hypnoticscienceacademy.com or calling 1300 839 733.

If you’d like to see the Prospectus, you can download it at bit.ly/1WxDDiG. (It’s a chunky file, though, so check before you download. Alternatively, call Anette and she’ll happily pop one in the mail to you overnight.) The Academy of Hypnotic Science has trained more hypnotherapists than any other college in Australia. It’s trained people just like you to have the confidence and knowledge to grow their own private practice as a clinical hypnotherapist, seeing as many clients as you like and working as your own boss in an extremely satisfying career.

THE YOGA HOUSE Specialising in Japanese remedial yoga, The Yoga House was founded with the desire to offer yoga with a difference. “We wanted other people to experience a form of yoga that was dynamic, that gave you the instant feeling of achievement along with the ability to change your body — not just on the outside but on the inside too,” say The Yoga House co-founders Lyn Keogh and Lisa Masters. According to Lisa, while she had tried many other forms of yoga, “nothing makes you feel quite as good as this unique blend; it makes you feel strong and flexible with a great sense of vitality”. At The Yoga House, instructors make the yoga all about you and your body, and encourage you to be present in the moment. Each class is adjusted according to the weather, season, time of day and, most importantly, who is on the mat. Japanese remedial yoga is an active physiotherapy that rebalances the body by strengthening weaknesses and relieving overstressed and over worked muscles and joints. By using the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine acupuncture meridians, it allows practitioners to isolate movements to a specific body part rather than just general movements. “Even if you have never done yoga before, remedial yoga allows you to feel immediately comfortable,” says Lyn. “It teaches you to get to know your body’s abilities and limitations and to make quick but lasting changes in your health.” While some yoga classes may leave you feeling flat, frustrated and a little achy, The Yoga House founders believe that a well-structured class should always leave you feeling light, invigorated and happy — and the feedback they get from their clients reflects that and so much more. “We get a lot of positive feedback about the benefits our clients are
experiencing that they have never gotten from any other type of yoga,” say Lyn. “I’ve had people tell me that not only are they much more relaxed in their day-to-day lives but our yoga has also had a huge effect on their body and general wellbeing. They have noticed that their periods are now regular, their sex drive has improved, they can walk further and faster, their headaches are relieved and their mental health has greatly improved. It’s incredible.” T: +61 2 9817 0078 W: theyogahouse.com.au

ANGEL YOGA Angel Yoga (AYKAF) has been teaching yoga to kids, families and adults for over 15 years. For the past decade, its teacher training program has also been qualifying others to teach yoga to children throughout Australia. AYKAF holds classes, specialised workshops and training programs in classrooms, childcare centres and yoga studios. Dani Reidy, founder and director of AYKAF, is a senior yoga teacher and has been teaching for over 17 years. Her personal and professional experiences allow her to teach with understanding and empathy. She provides classes to all ages that instil respectful boundaries, love and compassion. Yoga is incredibly beneficial to children as it teaches self-acceptance and acceptance of and compassion for others. It is non-competitive and meets individuals where they are, allowing any child to participate, no matter their athletic ability. Children learn healthy habits early in life as well as awareness of their own bodies, their capabilities and their uniqueness. Children also learn breathing techniques and methods that allow them to calm themselves and focus their minds. As children get older, yoga can help those interested in athletics to improve their strength, flexibility and mental preparedness. However, yoga is also a great option for children and teens not interested in sports, as it teaches them to pursue healthy habits in life and to respect their bodies. For families, yoga is an exceptional way to bond and share a healthy activity. Through family yoga, individual family members come together to have fun while learning ways they can slow their busy lives and connect to each other, calm themselves and show appreciation for each other at home. AYKAF’s six-level yoga teacher training course is a registered certificate course through Yoga Australia. It enables others to teach yoga to children aged two to 12, teens, families and children with special needs. It also prepares other professionals (ie early childhood teachers, school teachers,
psychologists, social workers, coaches) to bring yoga into their work with children. Training courses are held in Brisbane and Melbourne. Students outside these areas may also train online via correspondence. You can also book an experienced, qualified AYKAF teacher to come to your workplace to teach classes to children and/or deliver workshops to your staff. T: +61 412 564 757 W: angelyoga4kids.com.au

One of the concerns many people starting out as life coaches have is whether they’ll be able to establish a business or make a living out of it. Hart Life Coaching is committed to supporting its coaches during training and while they are setting up their business. One of the simplest, most costeffective ways to establish a business is to follow the advice of life-coaching founder father Thomas Leonard: “If I was a new coach ... and I needed credentials to feel good about marketing my coaching services, here’s what I would do. I would go out of my way to find and coach 100 individuals over the next two years. That’s it. ... They could pay me or not. Some clients would last a single session, others the full two years. But I would know that ... the following would likely happen: “I would earn enough to get by, especially if I kept my day job and coached at night and on weekends. “I would learn so much from these 100 people that I would develop confidence in my abilities. “I would start getting referrals within a month and this number of referrals would grow as I got better at what I did. “I would turn my 100 clients into my mentors and make sure they taught me how to coach them. “I would have testimonials and outcomes from clients that I would point to proudly if/when future clients wanted credentials/references. “I wouldn’t be afraid to coach folks, because I’d be willing to coach them for free. “I wouldn’t be afraid to ask a lot of my free clients because if they didn’t like it, they’d leave.” If you really want to make a difference, check out Hart Life Coaching.
