Hypnotherapy uses hypnosis to shift limiting thoughts and beliefs. Hypnosis is essentially a deep, deep state of relaxation, where your subconscious mind is most open and receptive to change. It is best described as meditation, but with a goal. It allows you to bypass the critical factor of the mind (which filters incoming information to our brain) and speak to the subconscious mind directly. Our beliefs, emotions, habits, imagination, memories, intuition, and automatic bodily functions reside within the subconscious mind. Hypnosis is completely safe and is a brainwave state that we all experience naturally multiple times every day. While in this state of complete non-resistance, we have greater ability to allow our thoughts to align with our manifestations.
-
Manifestation & Life coaching is the practice of examining our life circumstances and recognizing the actions, feelings and thoughts that create our manifestations & identity. It’s the conscious process of aligning our thoughts with our manifestations & who we want to be. Through this practice, we are able to become more aware of our thinking so that we can deliberately choose the thoughts and actions that align with our desired outcomes. Manifestation & Life Coaching paired with Hypnotherapy allows us to take these findings and further embed them on the subconscious level, for even faster results.

The best way to work with Brittany is via membership to the online Hypnotherapy audio session library, called the Manifested Me Vault.
The Manifested Me Vault is a great fit if you’re looking for flexible, self-paced subconscious mind reprogramming & manifestation support. You’ll get instant access to a library of powerful Hypnotherapy audios to help you rewire limiting beliefs, align with your desires, and elevate your manifestations - anytime, anywhere. It’s perfect if you love the idea of ongoing mindset support on your own timeline, without needing to schedule sessions.

-
Mostly yes.
The only documented cases where a state of hypnosis becomes inaccessible is with clients who are diagnosed with Schizophrenia.
Otherwise, everyone can be hypnotized, as it’s a perfectly natural and safe state of being. In fact, in this resistance-free state, you are most intune with who you truly are & most aligned with your Higher Self.
And for that reason, I have yet to have a client who cannot reach a state of hypnosis.
As with any skill, you will continue to go deeper (and the effects will last longer) the more that you practice it.
-
It feels like a deep, deep state of relaxation & non-resistance.
However, you can still have a conversation and move your body freely while in Hypnosis. In fact, we call it a “conversation with your eyes closed” because you will be speaking to me while in a state of hypnosis.
Emotions may arise (which is perfectly fine and normal), since we are accessing the area of the brain where your emotions reside.
Some clients feel a variety of different physical sensations during hypnosis, such as:
Feelings of lightness or heaviness
Eyes fluttering
Swallowing more than usual
Release of repressed emotions
Twitching
Tingling in their extremities
Alignment goosebumps
Light dizziness
Tightness in the hands
An altered perception of time (it might feel longer or shorter than actuality)
A state of euphoria or joy
But these responses are all completely normal and I’ll help you navigate them so that you remain comfortable and deeply relaxed throughout your session.
-
Yes and no.
The state of Hypnosis is technically the Theta brainwave state. We experience it naturally at least 2x per day (sometimes even more) - such as right as we fall asleep, and right when we wake up in the morning. You don’t have to believe in hypnosis to experience this state of mind; it’s a natural part of the human experience.
However, if you want to use Hypnosis for therapeutic, manifestation, & personal growth purposes (as we do during our sessions), you have to want the results to have them work for you.
You cannot be hypnotized against your will - your brain is designed to protect you from unwanted change.
I recommend asking yourself the following question: “On a scale from 0-10, how much do I want this change or manifestation?” 0 would be not at all, 10 would be more than anything.
If you answered with a 7 or above, you are open and willing to make the change. Any remaining resistance is something we can address through our work together.
If you scored any lower, I would suggest that you think through and find a different manifestation that you desire more.

When listening to The Manifested Me Vault sessions, some people may find that they relax so deeply that they fall asleep.
Hypnosis is absolutely still effective during sleep, it’s just a different experience, almost like how vanilla and chocolate can both be ice cream, but just different flavors of the same treat. Some people prefer to be more active and remember their hypnosis audio recordings, since it can be a very relaxing experience. If you notice yourself falling asleep and you would prefer to stay awake, I would recommend sitting up while doing your sessions (rather than lying down).
Sometimes, when we are in such a deep state of hypnosis, it might feel like we are sleeping, but actually we are not! If you “wake up” (or come back into conscious awareness) right as the Hypnotherapist is counting you up and out of the session (rather than finding yourself still napping 3 hours later…), then you know you were merely in a deep state of hypnosis during the session, not sleep. This just means that your conscious mind was deeply relaxed and disengaged, leaving your subconscious mind to listen & enjoy the session.
-
Yes! This is one of the most exciting and powerful uses for Hypnotherapy and the area that I specialize in!
Hypnotherapy puts you in touch with the larger part of you - your Inner Being, Soul, All-That-Is Energy, through the channel of your non-resistant Subconscious Mind. By lessening resistance through deep relaxation, we are able to experience amazing energetic shifts. This is where the latest in neuroscience, quantum physics, psychology, and spirituality all intersect! When we are tapping into the subconscious mind, we are tapping into that Infinite Energy, the Emotional Intelligence we have within us, and to our Intuition. In fact, scientifically speaking, our Intuition is merely cues that our subconscious mind is aware of, but our conscious mind is not. During our sessions, we are managing our thoughts to tune into the frequency of our desires. Through Hypnotherapy & Coaching, we can release the limiting beliefs & resistance that are separating you from the realization of your desires.
In fact, it’s through nightly Hypnosis that I manifested becoming a houseguest on the CBS TV show ‘Big Brother!’
-
For maximum effect and quicker change, I do request that my clients supercharge their results by listening to their provided Hypnotherapy recordings daily.
-
Absolutely not.
During Hypnotherapy, you remain in complete control of your experience. No one can hypnotize you to do or say anything against your will. The Law of Self-Preservation is still in effect. This is exactly why you must WANT to change in order for your brain to allow these changes to occur.
-
Absolutely not!
It’s actually incredibly pleasant, oftentimes blissful, and very relaxing - like a mental massage. Most clients feel relaxed, refreshed, and motivated after their session. Some may feel a bit tired, especially if they released quite a bit of repressed emotions during the session.
It might be surprising at times - you may find yourself chuckling or surprised at the messages your subconscious mind brings to your awareness.
However, it’s not scary because we maintain a safe psychological distance the entire time. It's the state of alignment of being intune with your InnerBeing...which is never a scary experience. It's like coming home.
If for any reason, at any point in time you want to stop, you can open your eyes and bring yourself out of the experience. You are in control the entire time.
-
You may remember every detail, or you may have more of a general sense of what happened. Almost like when you watch a movie and you remember the plot, but you may not remember every single scene exactly in order. It depends on the individual, their depth of hypnosis, and their unique experience each time.
Hypnosis is considered a retroactive experience, so you may remember details or learnings even several days later, as your subconscious mind begins to integrate our work together.
Regardless whether you consciously remember the session or not - your subconscious mind will remember every word I said on the deepest level.
Some people experience a lighter form of Hypnosis, some experience a deeper form - and both are equally valid and effective.
-
Here is the example I like to give - a stage hypnotist show is like a candy bar and Hypnotherapy is like broccoli.
The Hypnotic stage show is “junk food” - purely for entertainment (yet fun all the same!) and Hypnotherapy is for healing, alignment, and mental nourishment.
Both utilize components of Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) & Hypnosis, but both create different results.
Rest assured, there is no need to be “entertaining” during our sessions!
-
If a thought pops into your brain during an audio session, that’s perfectly normal. The conscious mind, although relaxed, is still there slightly in the background. It’s perfectly okay - just refocus on your breathing and bring your attention back to the sound of my voice.
The only way you can do Hypnosis “wrong” is by not attempting it at all!
Just like anything, it is a skill that you get better at over time.
-
No! You cannot get stuck in a state of Hypnosis.
You are able to bring yourself in and out of Hypnosis anytime you like. It’s a deep, deep state of relaxation.
If your audio session stops for any reason, you will come back up to the Beta brainwave state (the conscious brainwave state you are in as you are reading this right now) or you would drift off to sleep (the Delta brainwave state).
