In this powerful and soul-expanding episode of Hypnogeeks, I am joined by Leah, a past-life regressionist and founder of HealHouz, a spiritual platform devoted to awakening multidimensional awareness and honoring the divine within.

Leah brings a wealth of experience from her background in nursing, elder care, and afterlife transition support. Her work through HealHouz blends practical compassion with metaphysical insight, rooted in ancient goddess traditions and modern spiritual practice. HealHouz exists as a nurturing space for those ready to deepen their spiritual connection, explore their shadow, and activate the powerful authenticity that lives within.

We dive into Leah’s transformative book, Unlock the Power of Your Shadow, which explores shadow integration through Hindu goddess archetypes, emotional triggers, past and parallel lives, and time as a multidimensional experience. Together, we unpack how these hidden aspects of self aren’t meant to be feared—they’re meant to be understood, embraced, and transmuted into power.

Whether you're new to shadow work or deep in your healing path, this conversation offers insights, practices, and heartfelt wisdom to guide you home to yourself.

Welcome to the HypnoGeeks Podcast episode 14!

In this episode, I am thrilled to introduce Albert Vigil, a passionate advocate for self-improvement and holistic healing. Albert is certified in the Silva Method and Reiki levels 1 and 2, and is currently pursuing advanced education in clinical medical hypnotherapy, mind-body psychology, neurobiology, and neurochemistry. His dedication to understanding profound healing modalities extends to biology, biochemistry, and psychology.

The programme also emphasizes positive thinking, affirmations, and intuition development, empowering individuals to reprogramme their subconscious minds for success. Through goal setting, mental rehearsal, and mind-body healing techniques, the Silva Method provides a comprehensive approach to achieving personal and professional goals, reducing stress, and fostering overall health and happiness.

Albert is not only an aspiring author but also a committed educator, developing community programmes to spread awareness about the benefits of self-help and motivational education.

🧠Unlocking the Power of Mind and Recovery 🧠

Are you ready to explore the fascinating world of the mind, delve into the secrets of personal transformation, and discover the keys to recovery and well-being? Look no further than Hypnogeeks episode 13 – the ultimate podcast for therapists, curious minds, and seekers of positive change!

Join us as we embark on a mind-bending journey through the realms of hypnotherapy, holistic healing, and the power of the human spirit. Hosted by experts in the field, our podcast episodes are packed with fantastic information.

Episode 13 of our Hypnogeeks Podcast with Shig 🎙️ Step into the World of Recovery and Transformation 🌟

In this captivating conversation, we journey deep into the heart of truth and transformation. Hypnogeeks explores the very essence of our existence, unveiling the stories, struggles, and triumphs that shape our lives.

🔍 Unearthing the Roots:
Discover the profound origins behind life's challenges – from the feeling of not fitting in, to the masks we wear. These issues run deep, and families often hold the key to unraveling them. Shig believes in listening, understanding, and embracing these perspectives from the earliest stages.

🤯 The Ripple Effect of Substance Misuse:
Did you know that for every person grappling with substance misuse, a staggering 14 lives are impacted? But it doesn't stop there. Addiction's far-reaching consequences affect families, friends, and communities at large. The numbers might be even higher, revealing the urgency of addressing this issue.

🏠 A Fresh Approach to Recovery:
Traditional rehabilitation centers have their place, but they come with challenges – time off work, separation from family, and costs. Enter SP Bespoke Solutions, setting a new standard with rapid intervention and individualised care. Their dedication and expertise make all the difference.

🌟 The Power of Early Intervention and Education:
COVID-19 brought substance misuse into sharp focus as people were confined to their homes. Early recognition and seeking help became crucial. SP Bespoke Solutions emphasizes the need for education and intervention to prevent further harm and maintain family bonds.

🏛️ Government's Investment in Recovery:
While the government invests in recovery services, the conversation calls for a holistic approach. Legal measures might not be as effective as comprehensive support and therapy, in addressing the emotional and psychological facets of addiction.

❤️ Shig's Path to Recovery:
Shig's own journey to recovery is a testament to revisiting the past, embracing the good and the bad, and learning to love oneself. His approach involves clearing minds of negativity, offering "rent-free space" in heads, and empowering individuals to live without fear of substances.

🌠 Individualised Recovery, a Team's Dedication:
Shig and his team at SP Bespoke Solutions champion individualised recovery plans. Their mission? To help individuals reclaim their lives, mend relationships, and become positive contributors to their communities.

🎧 Join "Hypnogeeks" for a heartfelt exploration of addiction recovery. Witness the power of compassion, early intervention, and personal dedication. Together, we'll unveil the path to healing and transformation.🚀🌈
