Kanta Bosniak, Hypnosis & Coaching

I'm having a hypnotic moment!

About Me

I'm a happiness consultant! I do hypnosis & life coaching work by TELEPHONE and in-office, so you can work with me from wherever you are without having to leave your home and in complete privacy. ************************************************************ *********************** I'm also an artist, writer, Reconnective Healing Practitioner, intuitive and workshop presenter. My Myers-Briggs type: INFP (Teacher/Healer). Human Design Profile: Projector (Guide)So, I'm hardwired to be a teacher and guide! My work with clients integrates Spiritual Life Coaching, Hypnosis & Guided Imagery, Complementary Enery Work, Tapping, and training in self-hypnosis and/or meditation, depending on client preferences. ************************************************************ ***********************My art, writing and human potential development work is all spiritually based. I'm an interfaith minister and have been meditating for most of my life. I began teaching meditation and doing Guided Imagery for relaxation and spiritual growth in 1970. ************************************************************ ***********************I was brought up in the Quaker tradition and attended a Quaker school for 12 years, which profoundly influenced my life. I resonate with the idea of the "Inner Light" within all people. ************************************************************ *********************** I work with women to help them lose weight and feel beautiful. I am unique in the field of weight loss hypnosis and coaching, as have personally lightened my own body by over 100 pounds, naturally, and without surgery, using my own techniques. I've been there, so I know how to mentor weight loss and assist clients in achieving their goals. I help clients who want to lose weight without surgery AND clients who have had gastric bypass surgery and want to change their programming, so that they lose weight faster, release old patterns, and establish new ones that are in harmony with joy. ************************************************************ *********************** I work with women who are cancer survivors, to help them feel empowered, beautiful and support wellness through relaxation and visualization (only with physician referral). I also work with people in developing their creativity and creative careers, whatever their field of expression. In addition, I work with people who want to explore their spirituality and develop their intuition. Or just relax. One of my clients calls it a "mind massage!" ************************************************************ *********************** And, I do spiritual mentoring. I work with men and women who want to consciously create their lives, access intuition, connect with teachers, guides and angels, attact abundance, find their Soul Mate, and expand their capacity for joy. ************************************************************ *********************** I've done staff development workshops and had solo shows as Artist-in-Residence at Omega Institute and I've presented workshops at The Association for Research & Enlightenment. I also present at Unity Churches and other New Thought, creative and spirituality-oriented venues. ************************************************************ *********************** Last fall I hosted a teacher from Kauaii of "Nonviolent Communication" and a teacher of "Freeing Your Creativity" in my old center in Floyd, VA. As I update this profile, I am currently in the beginning of a new chapter. In the Reading, PA area, and celebrating many happy life changes, including a deepening commitment to fulfillment of creative expression and connection with people as readers,clients, as particpants and as...people! ************************************************************ ***********************I am an award-winning member of the Association to Advance Ethical Hypnosis and presented at the recent AAEH Conference on the visualizations for Cancer Survivors I developed and used as in my own healing and recovery process. Please visit KantaBosniak.com for more about this. ************************************************************ *********************** GET READY FOR SUMMER! Be your most beautiful at that June wedding! Let go of weight starting now and feel like the Goddess that you are! OR get started making your fondest dream come true.
