Dealing with relationships through hypnosis and hypnotherapy is another underutilized application of hypnosis. Yet it is one that offers a wonderful opportunity for many people to significantly improve the quality of their lives.

I have used hypnosis to help people better cope with a wide variety of personal, business and family relationships. Typically, this involves either giving people a protective barrier against toxic people in their lives or reframing relationships by letting go of past emotional baggage.

Toxic bosses, ex-spouses, parents, brothers, sisters, neighbors, "friends". The list of people who can drive us crazy is lengthy. Hypnosis can literally remove them from your emotional life if you choose to have it be so. Here is a comment from a client who had a very oppressive relationship with her mother:

Hi John,
I wanted to take a quick minute to thank you for your wonderful help. I cannot begin to tell you what your hypnotherapy sessions have done for me. Having the "mommy-ectomy" was the best thing I have ever done for myself. Having no reaction to the things that Mother does is incredibly liberating.  Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Ex-spouses and current bosses are the two other major categories of problem people and toxic relationships from whom hypnosis frees my clients. The common element is that these people were causing my clients emotional harm as a result of "pushing my client's buttons."

Another major use of hypnosis in relationships is letting go of "obsessions" over particular people: ex-spouses, boyfriend and girlfriends. Through a hypnotic ritual, my clients un-glamourize these people and turn their attention to new relationships and new possibilities for their lives.

Hypnosis can also re-vitalize existing marriage or romantic relationships. Click below to read an article I wrote on marriage which will give you an idea of what I mean:
