Each of us are so incredibly unique.  Honoring the people that we are and valuing our family and community is so important.  We live in a complicated and diverse world.  The greatest gift is to seek understanding  not only of ourselves but how we work within our relationships, the community and the world.

Jennifer has been a guest speaker at Gaston Memorial Hospital's FMS Group, Caromont Cancer Center and a guest speaker at Winthrop College as well as a guest speaker for many local organizations to demonstrate and educate the public about the uses of hypnosis.  She has worked as a co-instructor teaching the art of self-hypnosis at Gaston College in Dallas NC. Jennifer believes education is the key to understanding the benefits of hypnosis. "Hypnosis is widely misunderstood and when people truly understand the mechanics of how hypnosis works, they are able to let go of old misunderstood labels and negative myths about hypnosis. People also learn that they have done their own form of trance state without knowing it effortlessly. It isn't magic or mystical.  It is merely a skill that most anyone can learn if willing".
