Who am I?
I am Katrien Lauwers. Initially, I started the training mainly to overcome my own obstacles. Why do I keep falling back into my bad habits when things aren't going well? Where does that come from and how do I solve it? Clearly, willpower wasn't enough for me. I was searching for ways to understand and transform my fears. Through Mindvalley, I came across Marisa Peer, who offered guided self-hypnosis on the theme 'fear of rejection', in short, the fear of being rejected.
I thought, "Why not?". I was very skeptical about hypnosis myself, let alone guided self-hypnosis. How could she possibly come up with the answers I was looking for? But nothing could be further from the truth. The answers I was seeking were simply deeply rooted in my subconscious, and by asking the right questions, I found them and also the cause of them. Believe it or not, my fear of rejection disappeared like snow in the sun, and I felt free and relieved again.
The beauty of hypnotherapy is that the solution actually lies within yourself. It's the job of the hypnotherapist to ask the right questions so that you can uncover the cause of your problem and find the answers yourself. And that's precisely my talent: asking the right questions and having a great hunger for digging and searching for what really matters. I immediately started the training. Initially, it was to get to know myself better.
“Wow, I didn't realize I had such a big fear of rejection. Wow, I really enjoy smoking tobacco, but I've managed to replace it with vaping!"
As the training progressed, I gained more self-awareness and also discovered that I was good at asking the right questions to my fellow students. I could quickly get to the core of people's problems, discovering what they really needed, not just what they thought they needed, so they could feel what the next step is here and now.
Every day brings new challenges and new encounters.
I am grateful for the opportunity to help others overcome their fears and transform their habits. Each session is a chance to bring about positive change in your life.
So, as I continue to develop and grow myself, I remain a firm believer in the power of hypnosis and self-discovery. As a hypnotherapist, I am ready to help people break through their own inner blocks and lead a life free from limiting beliefs.
