Frequently asked questions

What is numerology?

Numerology is an ancient system of self-discovery that uses numbers to reveal insights into your personality, strengths, weaknesses, talents, motivations, and life path. Based on the idea that numbers carry specific vibrational energies, numerology provides a profound tool for understanding yourself and your journey through life.

How does numerology work?

Numerology typically works by assigning numerical values to the letters of a name and then calculating various core numbers based on a person's birth date and full birth name. These calculations reveal specific numbers like the Life Path Number, Destiny Number (or Expression Number), Soul Urge Number (or Heart's Desire Number), Personality Number, and Maturity Number. Each number is believed to represent different aspects of an individual's personality, talents, challenges, and opportunities.

What can numerology tell me?

Numerology can provide insights into your innate strengths and weaknesses, your core personality traits, your life's purpose and direction, potential challenges you might face, and the best ways to navigate them. It can also help you understand your relationships with others and shed light on opportune times for certain actions or decisions. It offers a framework for self-discovery and personal growth.

Is numerology a form of fortune telling?

While numerology can offer insights into potential trends and influences, it is generally not considered a direct form of fortune-telling. Instead, it's viewed as a tool for self-understanding and guidance. It highlights tendencies and possibilities rather than fixed future events, empowering individuals to make informed choices based on their unique numerical blueprint.

What is the Pythagorean Method of Numerology?

The Pythagorean Method is one of the most widely used and influential systems of numerology. It's attributed to the ancient Greek mathematician Pythagoras, who believed that "all is number" and that numbers held the key to understanding the universe. In this method, each letter of the alphabet is assigned a numerical value from 1 to 9 (with some exceptions for master numbers), and these numbers are then used to calculate various aspects of your numerology chart.

What are the main numbers in my numerology chart?

While a full numerology reading explores many aspects, the core numbers typically include:

Life Path Number: This is considered the most important number in your chart. Derived from your full birth date, it reveals your natural talents, the major lessons you're here to learn, and the overall path or direction your life is likely to take.
Expression Number (Destiny Number): Calculated from the name you go by, this number reveals your innate talents, abilities, and potential. It describes what you are inherently equipped to do and become.
Soul Urge Number (Heart's Desire Number): Derived from the vowels in your name, this number reflects your deepest desires, inner motivations, and what truly makes your soul sing.
Personality Number: Calculated from the consonants in your name, this number reveals how others perceive you and the aspects of your personality you tend to show to the world.
Birthday Number: Simply the day of the month you were born, this number offers additional insights into your specific talents and characteristics.
Attitude Number: The month and day you were born, provides an insight into how you view the world.

How can a numerology reading help me?

A numerology reading can offer profound benefits, including:

Self-Discovery: Gain a deeper understanding of your inherent strengths, weaknesses, talents, and purpose.
Clarity and Direction: Understand your life path and the lessons you're meant to learn, which can provide clarity on your life's direction.
Personal Growth: Identify areas where you can cultivate your potential and overcome challenges.
Relationship Insights: Understand the energetic dynamics between you and others.
Timing and Opportunities: Numerology can also indicate auspicious times for certain endeavors.
Validation: Often, a reading validates what you intuitively already know about yourself but haven't fully articulated.

How often should I get a numerology reading?

A comprehensive numerology chart reading provides foundational insights that remain constant throughout your life. However, many people enjoy yearly "Personal Year" readings to understand the energetic theme and opportunities for the upcoming year. You might also seek a reading when you feel at a crossroads, starting a new chapter, or simply desiring deeper self-understanding.

What is hypnotherapy / Rapid Transformational Therapy?

Hypnotherapy is a type of complementary therapy that uses hypnosis, a state of focused attention and heightened suggestibility, to help individuals achieve specific therapeutic goals. It involves guiding a person into a relaxed, trance-like state, where their subconscious mind becomes more receptive to positive suggestions and insights, allowing for personal change.

Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) is a pioneering, award-winning therapy developed by Marisa Peer that combines the most effective principles of hypnotherapy, psychotherapy, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and neuroscience. RTT is designed to deliver fast and lasting results by directly accessing the subconscious mind to identify and reframe limiting beliefs, leading to profound personal transformation.

What does it feel like to be hypnotized?

Being hypnotized is often described as a state of deep relaxation and focused awareness, similar to daydreaming or the feeling just before falling asleep or waking up. You are generally aware of your surroundings, retain control, and cannot be made to do anything against your will or moral code. It's not about being unconscious or losing control, but rather a heightened state of mental receptiveness.

What can hypnotherapy / RTT be used for?

Including but not limited to:

Behavioral changes: Quitting smoking, weight management, breaking bad habits.
Stress and anxiety management: Reducing stress, overcoming phobias and fears, managing anxiety.
Pain management: Alleviating chronic pain or preparing for medical procedures.
Improving performance: Enhancing sports performance, public speaking, creativity, concentration.
Emotional well-being: Building confidence and self-esteem, overcoming trauma, managing grief.
Procrastination and self-sabotage
Money blocks and career advancement
Public speaking and performance anxiety

Can anyone be hypnotized?

Most people can be hypnotized to some degree, as it's a natural state of mind we all experience. The ability to be hypnotized varies from person to person, with some individuals being more receptive than others. Willingness, focus, and the ability to relax are key factors in how easily someone can enter a hypnotic state. It's not about weakness of mind, but rather the ability to concentrate and follow suggestions.

What is Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT)?

How is RTT different from traditional hypnotherapy or talk therapy?

RTT distinguishes itself in several key ways:
* Speed of Results: Unlike traditional therapies that can take months or years, RTT often delivers significant breakthroughs in just 1-3 sessions. It's designed for rapid, permanent change.
* Root Cause Focus: While traditional therapies may focus on managing symptoms, RTT goes straight to the root cause of an issue. It helps you understand why you have a particular belief or behavior, and then helps you release it.
* Combination of Modalities: RTT integrates elements from various therapeutic approaches, creating a unique and powerful method that harnesses the best of each.
* Personalized Transformation: After a session, you receive a custom-recorded audio to listen to daily for at least 21 days. This reinforces the new, empowering beliefs established during the session, making the change permanent.
* Client-Centered: RTT empowers you by helping you understand your own mind and how to communicate with it for lasting positive change.

What does an RTT session feel like? Can I get "stuck" in hypnosis?

During an RTT session, you'll be guided into a relaxed, hypnotic state. This is a natural state of inward focus, similar to being completely absorbed in a good book or movie, or that feeling just before you fall asleep. You remain fully aware and in control the entire time. You can talk, move, and will remember everything that happens. It's impossible to get "stuck" in hypnosis – that's a myth!

How many RTT sessions will I need?

Many issues can be resolved in a single RTT session. For more complex or deeply ingrained challenges, 2-3 sessions may be recommended. Your practitioner will discuss this with you during your initial consultation and assess your individual needs.

What happens after an RTT session?

Following your RTT session, you will receive a personalized audio recording. It is crucial that you listen to this recording daily for a minimum of 21 days. This consistent listening reinforces the new neural pathways and beliefs established during your session, helping to embed them in your subconscious mind and create lasting, positive change. We'll also have a follow-up check-in to monitor your progress and provide additional support.
