Hypnotherapy is very interesting.
We've had several conversations and show different hypnotherapists.
In fact, one woman, she, she didn't even know she was actually assaulted until she went to hypnotherapy and then found out that in deep seated inside that her brain had cut off the memory, but she, her body remembered it.
So that's what the fascination though is, but you're right though, once you get in that subconscious, man, it's, it's endless what you can do in there.
You can help people realize things, help them get them through things, you know, stuff they'd never imagined they could ever do, you know, and, and hypnotherapy seems to be coming up a lot more now versus traditional therapy.

That is the mind that has thousands upon thousands upon thousands of different thoughts that go on every single day.
So you've got the 10%, which is the conscious mind, which, you know, it's, you know, it's just all these different, all these different thoughts.
You know, a lot of them are negative, which is something that we address with hypnotherapy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
