Integrative Hypnosis with Melissa Tiers

I’m wicked excited because today on The Karen Kenney Show, I’m talking to one of my beloved mentors, the multi-award-winning author and in my own words “super-duper smarty pants”, Melissa Tiers!

Melissa is the founder of the Center for Integrative Hypnosis in New York and it’s been said about her, “When it comes to coaching and the brain, Melissa Tiers is known as ‘the teachers’ teacher’ all over the world.”

So when I had a chance to work with her to expand and deepen my own skill set, to experience her magic and to get certified in Integrative Hypnosis and “coaching the unconscious mind” - it was a total no brainer!

Melissa is hands down one of the most curious people you’ll ever meet.

I would even say that it’s her enthusiastic curiosity that first brought and now keeps Melissa as a sought after-hypnotist, and one of the top brilliant minds and thought leaders in her field of work.

She’s always fascinated by about altered states of consciousness, the limits of everyday human perceptions and how we can learn to bend and shape them.

Even after writing four books (three of them award-winning), teaching all over the planet and with decades of studying, intense seeking, and hands on experience on the topic of the unconscious mind, she’ll still tell you that she doesn’t know it all.

She knows that there is always room to expand her knowledge, research and experiment further and continue to play in this area of neuroscience that can, does and will make a difference for humanity in an ongoing way.

It’s this beautiful blend of compassion, confidence, and curiosity that first attracted me to her as a teacher (that along with her NY accent and her liberal use of adult language) and keeps her as someone that I’m thrilled to get to study with and continue to learn from!

Are you curious now too? If so, buckle up; this is going to be a fun ride!
