Hi, I’m Janice Love. I’ve always been a deep feeler and thinker; a high-energy person with an insatiable curiosity about almost everything. In the 1990’s, I became fascinated with psychology and the human mind. Epigenetics and other sciences were proving that we really can transform our biology, thoughts and beliefs. Thus began my mind/psyche obsession. I read whatever I could get my hands on, but I craved a more visceral experience.
I sought out a San Francisco hypnotherapist who – over a series of ridiculously expensive sessions – completely failed to hypnotize me. Dismayed, I shelved the idea that hypnosis was a real “thing.”
Years later, I experienced acute post-surgery trauma which manifested both physically and psychologically. I’d become terrified of just about everything, but I was baffled as to why. I had met a hypnotherapist whom I really trusted, and I finally recognized something about myself – due to life traumas, I had trust issues. Working with her was magical – relaxing, healing, and eye-opening. Practicing what she taught me, I was able to re-balance myself. As a result, my personal discovery, research and growth shifted into hyper-drive. Shortly after moving to Texas, I found a Hypnotherapy School, signed up for training, and I haven’t stopped learning since.
Hypnosis has facilitated my deeper understanding of past events, and given me the tools to re-frame things that had been deeply troubling, into things I can accept (as well as release) in a non-reactive and loving way.
All hypnosis is really self-hypnosis, and through it, I continually sift through the layers of beliefs and misunderstandings that have shaped my perceptions of the world and its occupants. We all view the world through our personal lens, which is colored with our own unique understanding based on every experience of our lives.
Knowing that we have the ability to shift and expand our views – and literally change our beliefs – strengthens my resolve to keep explore my perceptions and improve my communication. Understanding how to ground and center increases my intuition, and I can better understand and connect with others. Meditation and ceremonial work no longer seem”out there” to me. The word magic is no longer a word from a fairy tale. Magic is completely natural and we are all capable of it. We just have to get in touch with that part of ourselves.
Reiki was not something I sought out. It just appeared and latched onto me at a time of great need, and rather dramatically. I had some very intense and frightening experiences, until I properly learned how to work with it. As the saying goes, “When the student is ready, the master will appear” and suddenly, Reiki practitioners were everywhere. It was a clear sign, so I followed it.
If anyone had told me prior to 2015 that I’d be able to perceive and protect myself from unhealthy energies, and to channel subtle and positive energies toward a desired specific outcome for myself and others, I’d have thought they were nuts. But energy is just star-stuff; we are all made of it, so why shouldn’t we be able to work with it? “Seeing is believing” is just the tip of the iceberg. There is so much more to this world than just what our eyes tell us.
Throughout my life, people have always told me: “I’ve never told anybody else about this!” and “I feel so much better, after talking to you!” My ability and desire to connect with others puts them at ease. People see I’m truly listening, and they sense my genuine interest. They hear in my feedback that I comprehend not just their words, but the driving feelings and emotions behind them. When they feel it’s safe to trust me, I am deeply honored and filled with gratitude. This work is what I am meant to do.
