Until my back injure made it impossible to work out

I was use to eating 4 big meals a day and working out 5 or more hours per day. Weight was never an issue, until that life changing injury that caused me to gain 70 lbs. and ultimately caused me to give up my taekwondo career . . .

. . . AND BEGAN MY INTEREST IN NLP & HYPNOTHERAPY

In taekwondo I was interested in the power of the mind, how a teenage girl could break a board that a full grown man could not break. What was going on here?

Dr. Richard Bandler

Richard Bandler is the father and co-founder with John Grinder of Neuro-Linguistic Programming as well as teacher of Master Sam Naples.

Richard Wayne Bandler was born February 24, 1950 in New Jersey, which is where he credits having developed his tenacious attitude. As a youth his family moved to San Francisco and he lived in the famed Chinatown area where he credits learning acupuncture and the martial arts.

The Journey

The Journey is a cellular healing process that is based upon the work of Brandon Bays. Brandon Bays has long been a member of the personal growth and development movement working as Tony Robbins’ personal assistant as well as teaching his Living Health program which is the fourth day of his “Unleash the Power Within” seminar.


Brandon was new a age girl, living a charmed existence changing lives using NLP, hypnotherapy and NAC skills to change peoples lives. She was a vegetarian, ran on the beach and meditated daily. Her and her husband lived in a small beachfront cottage in southern California.


Brandon had an envious life until that fateful day when she could no longer ignore the tumor that was growing in her belly. How could this happen? She had done everything right.

What is Hypnotherapy?

The International Medical and Dental Hypnotherapy Association (I.M.D.H.A.) defines Hypnosis as “...an education communication process to a person’s mind that allow his/her conscious and subconscious mind to receive the same message. The process produces an altered state of consciousness though physical and mental relaxation. The critical faculty of mind is bypassed and the subconscious openly receives the communication. At this time, the senses are in a state of heightened awareness. The mind will only accept that which goes along with the established morals and ethics. The person in a hypnotic state will respond only to suggestions with which he/she is in a agreement. Desire, belief and expectancy are necessary for this altered state to have effect in the outer behavior of the individual.”
