MICHAEL BELYEA, M.A.

Thank you for taking part in a hypnotherapy session. Hypnosis can be a powerful tool for insight, relaxation, and healing. This guide offers some gentle suggestions to help you care for yourself and make the most of your experience after our session.

1. Take Care of Your Body

• Drink plenty of water.
• Eat a nourishing meal or snack.
• Rest if you feel tired—your body and mind may still be processing.

2. Be Kind to Your Emotions

• Sometimes memories, feelings, or realizations surface after a session. This is completely normal.

• Give yourself space to feel whatever comes up without judgment.
• Writing in a journal may help you sort through thoughts or emotions.
• Take it easy for the rest of the day if possible.

3. Let the Experience Settle

• You may notice changes in the hours or days that follow—shifts in mood, energy, or perspective.
• Don’t worry if things feel unclear at first. Let your subconscious do its work.
• Insight often unfolds naturally over time.

4. Integration Ideas

• Reflect quietly or meditate.
• Spend time in nature.
• Engage in activities that calm and center you—like yoga, art, walking, or music.
• Avoid overstimulating environments right after your session, if possible.

5. Listening to Your Recording 

• Listen when you're relaxed and won't be interrupted.
• You may pick up new details each time you listen.
• Stay open and curious.

6. Optional Next Steps

• Practice any suggestions given in your session, gently and with patience.
• Simply observe how your thoughts, habits, or feelings shift in the days ahead.

• In some cases, you may wish to schedule a follow-up session for continued exploration.
