Shannon's Hypnotherapy

12/21/2025

Today felt full circle for me.

Over the past twelve months, I was featured as a contributing author in two books. One connected to Suzanne Giesemann and the other connected to Marci Shimoff.

And today, on World Meditation Day, these two spiritual leaders came together to guide a global meditation.

Meditation does not have to be perfect or profound. Sometimes it is simply a pause.

That same state of presence is what I work with through hypnotherapy. It is not about zoning out. It is about gently coming back into yourself in a way that feels grounded and supportive to your nervous system.

If you missed the live meditation today, the replay is available on Suzanne's channel and worth experiencing in your own time.

I’m a registered clinical hypnotherapist based in Calgary. I work with anxiety, grief, trauma, and emotional overwhelm by helping the nervous system settle and the subconscious soften.

As the year winds down, this is your reminder to check your benefits.

Many people don’t realize that hypnotherapy is often eligible under Health Spending Accounts, and in some cases may be covered by extended health benefits, depending on your plan and provider.

If you’ve been meaning to work on anxiety, stress, emotional patterns, grief, or feeling stuck — this can be a smart time to book sessions before unused benefits expire.

I work with clients in Calgary and online, and I’m always happy to provide receipts or answer questions so you can check what your plan allows.

World Meditation Day on December 21 feels especially meaningful to me this year.

For anyone curious, Suzanne Giesemann and Marci Shimoff are coming together to guide a free global meditation, open to people worldwide.

Seeing Suzanne Giesemann and Marci Shimoff coming together around this event is something I deeply respect. Just this past year, I was a contributing writer in *Mediumship: Sacred Communications with Loved Ones Across the Veil* by Suzanne Giesemann, and also a contributing writer in *Awakened Hearts*, a book featuring Marci Shimoff. Both became international bestsellers.

Being associated with their work over the last year has meant a great deal to me. Stillness has been a real teacher in my own healing journey and in the work I do with others, so witnessing this collaboration feels like a quiet full-circle moment.

If you've been feeling unmotivated, foggy, or just "done", you are not alone.

Your nervous system carries everything...stress, emotions, survival mode, etc.

Hypnotherapy can help you release what's draining you so you can feel rested again.

If you're ready to reset, contact me for a complimentary consultation.

Sometimes people-pleasing is simply being kind, thoughtful, and genuinely caring about others.

But there is a different kind that is rooted in survival, where conflict makes your body feel like danger and love feels conditional.

You are allowed to choose yourself now without feeling like you are doing something wrong.
Your worth does not depend on how well you manage other people’s comfort.

I help clients retrain the parts of the brain and body that still believe love must be earned. Message me if you are ready to feel safe putting yourself first.

Watkins Mind Body Spirit Magazine has featured *Mediumship: Sacred Communications with Loved Ones Across the Veil* by Suzanne Giesemann, published by Sacred Stories.

I’m honored to be a featured writer in this inspiring anthology that explores connection, consciousness, and love beyond the veil.

This project continues to influence my work as a Calgary-based and Online Clinical Hypnotherapist, helping people reconnect with their power, release what no longer serves them, and bridge science and spirit through subconscious healing.

It’s also near and dear to my heart as a Pet Loss Bereavement Counsellor, where I support people navigating the deep emotional bonds that never truly end.

Ever feel like your nervous system has you in a headlock?
When it is stuck in fight, flight, freeze, or fawn it can throw you to the mat before you even know what happened. Every day feels like another round, and the more you fight it, the more it fights back.

The truth is your nervous system is not your opponent. It is a sparring partner that has been using the same outdated moves for years. With the right tools, you can retrain it, change the match, and walk out of the ring feeling calm, grounded, and in control.

That is what hypnotherapy can do for you.
Send me a message today to set up your complimentary consultation and let’s get you out of the clinch and back into your life.

Awakening is not always what people expect.
Sometimes it's damn hard. Often your nervous system is not ready for the expansion your spirit is reaching for.

I wrote this blog to explore what it really means to grow from the inside out.

I share part of my personal story, how I went from surviving in East Vancouver to experiencing moments of spiritual insight, while slowly realizing it was my human side that needed the most care.

I talk more about this experience in the best-selling book Awakened Hearts, a project that gave me the space to speak to the depth and reality of healing.

Today I work as a clinical hypnotherapist in Calgary and online, supporting people through anxiety, trauma, depression and panic attacks.

If you are in the middle of something big right now, I hope this helps you feel a little more seen.

Are you curious about how hypnotherapy might support your healing? I am always open to connecting. I offer complimentary consultations, online or by phone.

There’s a lot of talk about awakening. About light, energy, expansion. But for many people, it doesn’t feel like rising and it doesn’t always bring peace. Sometimes it’s disruptive. You start to realize you’re more than your thoughts, more than your pain, more than what happened to you, bu...
