Engineer currently employed | I support you throughout your career path, whether it's for job searching or a career change.

Are you a student wondering about your future? A recent graduate looking for your first job? An employee wanting to advance, negotiate a better salary, or consider a career change? I offer personalized, practical and non-judgmental support to help you identify your opportunities and achieve your professional goals. Trained as an engineer and now head of operations, I have built my professional career through several experiences, changes of position and taking on responsibilities. These developments have allowed me to develop a real ease in job searching, skills development, interview preparation and salary negotiation. Beyond my own career path, I have always enjoyed supporting those around me in their professional reflections: identifying accessible jobs, discovering training courses, improving a CV, preparing an application or building a strategy to change jobs. My conviction: good career guidance almost never relies on diplomas or past experiences, but also on the ability to identify opportunities, to value one's potential and to give oneself the means to access them. How can I assist you? 1. Educational and career guidance - Identify your interests, skills and aspirations. - Discover jobs and sectors you might not have necessarily considered. - Explore the training courses, degrees and certifications that are suitable for your project. - Compare job opportunities, career prospects and salaries. - Develop a realistic action plan to achieve your goals. 2. Job search and application optimization - Create or improve your CV to make it clear, attractive and tailored to recruiters. - Optimize your LinkedIn profile and professional visibility. - Quickly identify relevant offers using effective search methods. - Adapt your applications to the expectations of companies and to the pre-selection tools. - Develop a strategy to access more opportunities. 3. Interview preparation and career development - Learn to present your career path with confidence and coherence. - To enhance your skills, including when changing sectors. - Anticipate recruiters' questions and construct convincing answers. - Prepare your arguments for negotiating your salary. - Identify the levers for professional development and access to greater responsibilities. 4. Career change and use of artificial intelligence** - Take stock of your situation and identify new perspectives. - Identify skills that can be transferred to other professions. - Use artificial intelligence tools to explore sectors, training programs and job offers. - Set up a personalized monitoring system for professional opportunities. - Transform your thoughts into concrete actions, with clearly defined steps and objectives. Depending on your needs, we can analyze job offers together, rework your CV, simulate an interview, search for training courses or build your career change strategy. I also place great importance on new technologies, particularly artificial intelligence, to teach you how to conduct faster, more relevant and more autonomous searches. Terms: - Format: at your home or remotely. - Target audience: high school students, university students, recent graduates, employees, job seekers or those undergoing career changes. - Content: sessions fully adapted to your profile, your needs and your objectives.

✅COACHING / MANAGEMENT CONSULTING / COMMUNICATION WITHIN MARITAL / COUPLE & FAMILY RELATIONS

✅COACHING / MANAGEMENT CONSULTING / COMMUNICATION WITHIN MARITAL / COUPLE & FAMILY RELATIONS

In our imagination, nourished by our education and our conditioning, we all believed one day that once married, having founded our family, we will realize our dream. Before taking the leap, we all idealize this life, and the stronger our hope, the stronger the awakening to the reality of life would probably be. Indeed, family life is another experience, a challenge and a process during which we learn a lot about ourselves, about the other and about the relationship. By choosing the right mediator, family and married life can therefore be a great opportunity to grow (sometimes in pain, in joy). Among the possible accompaniments, some examples: - The basics of a solid and fulfilled married or family life - How to resolve disagreements - The secrets of a balanced and balancing child education - Learn to express emotions - Manage families and in-laws - How to take your place within the couple - Define the respective roles of each Among the techniques used: - Non-violent communication tools - The “helping relationship” which aims to support people in crisis or conflict situations and help them resolve dysfunctions (emotional, relational difficulties, repetition of scenarios, lack of self-confidence, etc.) . It also leads to better self-knowledge and guides the person to discover their own solutions. The practitioner in helping relationship through his attentive and neutral listening, his training, his personality, his presence, his availability will allow the consultant to progress towards a better knowledge of his psychological mechanisms, respecting his blockages, his rhythm and his ability to hear. The therapist takes into account the subject as a whole: physical, psychological and social. Allow the consultant to access autonomy so that he can, when he feels ready, walk alone, in all inner serenity. - Coaching that allows you to act and take responsibility, which is the basis of effective and lasting change. Work on the management of emotions and relationships, confidence and self-esteem, self-affirmation is at the center of individual support, which allows you to live more fulfilled and authentic relationships. - Love coaching, which is personalized support based on understanding the mechanisms of love and focusing on putting an individual in this disposition of openness and acceptance of the other and their difference (which prepares to receive love) and to transfer keys of understanding to gain emotional maturity. It allows you to obtain concrete and measurable results in your love life. Through coaching, the consultant becomes aware of his resources, optimizes his potential and transforms his life. - Brief marital and family therapy. She is interested in how the problems manifest themselves in the present but the personal history of each is also approached. This insight helps to better understand the events experienced and to make connections between the past and what is at stake in the current difficulties. We introduce changes in behavior to open up perspectives, mainly relational. - Sophrology. Sophrology is a gentle method that promotes relaxation of the body and mind where you relearn how to listen to your feelings using controlled breathing exercises, muscle relaxation and mental suggestions. It allows you to develop your potential, regain self-confidence, manage your emotions and achieve your goals. It will be, at times, interesting to use this technique to manage to unblock the mind that is blocking and to give the body more amplitude to welcome what presents itself. ➤ THE COACH PSYCHOANALYST PSYCHOPRACTITIONER Trained at the Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League University in the United States, our psychoanalyst, psycho-practitioner and behaviorist coach has specialized and worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, regularly speaking in forums and conferences, and also offering personalized INDIVIDUAL support. ➤ PLACE, TIMETABLE, PRICES ✓ Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Fribourg-Zurich-Neuchâtel-Lugano-Montreux-Basel-Neuchâtel-Bern-Lucerne-Brussels-Luxembourg-Paris-Lyon.

Coherence between form and content. The important thing in communication is not the confidence we have in ourselves, but the appearance of confidence we exude. It’s also not about being structured or coherent but simply about appearing to be so. And to do this, there are targeted tools. ➤ So, how do you listen and be listened to, convince/persuade and be impactful, challenge and leave an impression, enhance your content, address your audience relevantly and optimize the quality & clarity of the exchange/message? It is precisely a question of going through, applying and deploying practical and effective techniques of oral presentation, simple intervention or 'one to one' exchange, aiming to challenge one's audience or interlocutor, taking care of both the content and the form. , all in a professional or personal setting. Here again, there is a range of precise verbal and non-verbal communication techniques which, once modernized and brought up to date, will be put to the service of your reality. Allowing you to move from fear to pleasure in front of the public. ➤ Thus, mastered, the practical method allows, through a set of simulations and scenarios based on your daily experience supporting pragmatic & concrete techniques, to improve self-confidence, self-assurance, ease by overcoming discomfort and controlling his emotion in public. But also to work on your leadership & charisma, in a context where empathy and emotional intelligence are at the service of communication. ➤ So, in this context, after having precisely defined your objective and reviewed the obstacles encountered, here are some examples of themes covered through concrete techniques and a targeted methodology: ✓Practical tools to perfect your rhetoric/repartee ✓Decode and use the practical communication tools of great leaders ✓Fundamentals (practices) of eloquence but also of oratorical art (intonation, gaze, gestures, elocution, range, emotions, pronunciation, development of one's own style of charisma, etc.) to ensure consistency between content and the form ✓Fundamentals of Body Language to support and not interfere with the speech while being convinced & convincing. ✓ Highlighting their speech & promoting their speaking to arouse interest, by building on their strengths. ✓Creation of a coherence between the message emitted & the message received in order to improve its speech and in fact, its professional/personal relations. ✓Management of Q&A sessions & external reactions during an intervention or an oral exchange. ✓Practical tools to put your interlocutor at ease and appear friendly/interested. ✓To succeed in a negotiation/mediation. ✓On the one hand, learning to say 'no' simply in three steps AND on the other hand, getting people to say 'yes'. ✓To turn sentences into positive AND constructive. ✓To manage conflicts (eg 'assertive' communication techniques, eg CNV techniques - Non Violent Communication). ✓To put NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) at the service of communication. ✓To adopt effective, simple, fair and engaging language. ✓To use sentences, turns of phrase & expressions allowing to be precise, simple, effective & challenging. ✓To manage your personal & professional relationships with, for example, the preparation of your ratings. ✓Make your hypersensitivity a strength to tame your abilities. ✓Listening proactively and expressing / conveying ideas / message clearly. ✓ Avoid letting your emotions show through and propose a constructive solution to problems, while drawing on your own relational skills. ✓Be better equipped to recognize and immediately remedy situations that weaken their authority and affect their ability to communicate effectively. ✓Enhance their potential for expression and creativity (often underestimated until now) and 'apparent' sociability ✓Develop not necessarily self-confidence, but the 'appearance' of self-confidence, refine one's listening to respond adequately, open up to the resources of the imagination, free oneself from the rational to then structure one's speech. ✓Relate their communication objectives (project, institution, values, ideas, demands, etc.) to the form of their expression. ✓Learn and put into practice persuasive communication techniques and better understand the perception that others have of oneself. In order to improve his skills of 'self-presentation' and conveyed image. ✓Practical techniques to foster the engagement of the other party. ✓Strengthen the structure of its communication and develop a convincing argument in order to sell its ideas and projects. ✓ Optimizing internal and external relationships are professional fundamentals, so the structure of meetings, dialogue within the company, and mastery of change communication are invaluable. (...) ➤ In addition, you will leave with concrete and immediately useful tools, developed in the form of practical lightning modules: learning to say no, getting a delicate message across, selling an idea, expressing disagreement with an authority, getting a "yes" without upsetting someone, resisting the pressure of a too-quick "yes", calming someone who has taken your words badly (...). ➤ In short, public speaking skills are now an essential cross-functional skill for asserting oneself, informing, negotiating, and persuading. However, to master the keys to successful public communication, it is necessary to enhance the impact of one's own speeches: by structuring one's interventions and taking into account the circumstances and the audience's expectations; by making a lasting impression through storytelling; by integrating the psychological and emotional factors of effective oral communication; by incorporating emotions into the preparation of the message and arguments; by anticipating objections and delicate situations; by preparing and structuring an engaging and convincing presentation outline; by experimenting with the rules of improvisation; and by appropriately managing difficult situations (...). ➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practical exercises adapted to your everyday situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live, to have an external perspective and areas for improvement) , so that you will be able to apply them immediately, and from the first session. ➤Progress following these sessions is noticeable from 2 to 3 sessions (*study 2026). ➤ Make your words a formidable asset.

✅Overcoming Obstacles, Practical/Behavioral Psychology, Change Management, Personal Development---Certified Expert Consultant

✅Overcoming Obstacles, Practical/Behavioral Psychology, Change Management, Personal Development---Certified Expert Consultant

SUMMARY DESCRIPTION (IN BRIEF) ➤A unique support system to transform your obstacles into levers for success ➤ Here, there are no ready-made solutions or judgments, but a personalized approach that combines the best of pragmatic Anglo-Saxon coaching and applied European psychoanalysis. In concrete terms, you benefit from both practical tools for action and in-depth work on your thought and emotional patterns. The result: lasting self-awareness and tangible changes from the very first sessions. ➤The goal? To regain control over your life. To understand your inner patterns, overcome your blocks, and above all, take action using concrete techniques tailored to your situation. ➤ Examples of themes regularly addressed: ✓Self-confidence, assertiveness, self-esteem, decision-making ✓Emotional management: anxiety, anguish, stress, anger, depression, negative thoughts, addictions, trauma ✓Relationships: family, professional, school, or romantic conflicts, feelings of loneliness, or communication difficulties ✓Efficiency: concentration, procrastination, organization, time management ✓Reconstruction: overcoming trauma, transforming wounds or harmful behaviors into positive resources ➤The method: ✓An initial exchange to analyze your expectations, your obstacles and your objectives. ✓A joint exploration to decode your mechanisms and identify your triggers. ✓A concrete work plan, with pragmatic reflections and actions to implement. ✓A gradual evolution, in a relationship of trust, where each session = progress + solutions. ➤Why does it work? Because this approach offers you both: ✓The depth of psychoanalysis to understand your invisible obstacles, ✓The effectiveness of support in immediately implementing actions, ✓The security of a caring space where we move forward together, without judgment, in co-creation. ➤ In short: a lively, interactive and personalized support that restores your confidence, clarity and energy to move forward. DETAILED DESCRIPTION ➤This methodological approach, halfway between first practical behavioral coaching in an 'Anglo-Saxon' style and then psychoanalysis accompanied by a dedicated specialized psychoanalyst psycho-practitioner, is based precisely on precise questioning techniques, offering help in finding solutions, mastering new ways of envisaging/dealing with/perceiving difficulties, then implementing actions to be carried out. Combining the advantages of the two approaches and choosing the appropriate mediator to carry out quality work and help each other move forward/overcome certain mechanisms, will therefore induce the awareness necessary for this decided change, towards a new dynamic. ➤The goal? To understand the thought and emotion patterns triggered by specific everyday situations that lead to blockages. Then, to take concrete action using pragmatic techniques and methodological approaches tailored to your situation to regain control of your life. ➤To drive this change and achieve these aspirations, a host of concrete tools are at our disposal, but they require deep self-exploration. It means questioning ourselves, analyzing, gaining perspective, and understanding the issues and problems before finally freeing ourselves through action. ➤Examples of themes/problems regularly dealt with & which are the subject of dedicated specialized support, adapted to your plan: •Self-confidence, self-esteem/assertion, shyness, decision-making, personal development •Management of emotions & suffering expressed in the form of anxieties, depressive disorders, embarrassments, addictions, relationship difficulties, phobia, stress, anger, anxiety, negative thoughts, panic, depression but also modification of behaviors harmful to good -being (post-traumatic stress, injuries, dependencies, addictions, etc.) •Disorders in school/professional relationships (tensions, (re)orientation, pressures & conflicts) and personal (family, romantic, friendly, emotional) & social relationships (loneliness, communication difficulties generating pain/frustrations) • Problem of concentration, procrastination, organization, professional efficiency, time management •Management of a past trauma of which you are the victim (...) ➤Initially, it is always a matter of knowing the triggers that led you to seek support and knowing what you hope to achieve with this support. ➤With specific techniques that have proven themselves & adapted to your case and through a methodological approach and pragmatic tools, the purpose involves on the one hand an exploration of oneself through psychoanalytic tools and on the other hand concrete actions, as is the essence of coaching which bears fruit from the first sessions, by making you autonomous. ➤Influenced by cognitive & behavioral therapies, by Anglo-Saxon coaching instruments & the European methodology of applied psychoanalysis, the approach therefore aims to seek links between current difficulties and past experiences, including repressed and unresolved conflicts and to confront difficulties that may be partially related to inappropriate thoughts or behaviors learned/adopted often in spite of oneself. ➤And if cookie-cutter advice is precisely not offered, that you will never be judged or directed but heard and guided, in a process of permanent/interactive co-construction...it is precisely because it is important beforehand to analyze together, to become aware, to study jointly, to deepen, to decode your blockages & your initial problem to clarify your aspirations. So, how does a session unfold? After an initial assessment, a 'diagnostic'/exploratory contact during which your expectations are examined, your problem, your obstacles, your needs and objectives identified, the next step is to analyze them together. Then, we shift our perspective/approach, consider the 'impasse' differently, rethink the difficulties, and gradually step out of our comfort zone through a series of pragmatic suggestions, reflections, and actions to be implemented, following a work plan defined together, grounded in a supportive and trusting relationship. ➤In concrete terms, a session = reflection + solutions, with a strategy readjusted if necessary. ➤ THE CONSULTING PROFESSOR - PSYCHOPRACTITIONER A graduate of a prestigious French Grande École and an Ivy League university in the United States, he combines academic rigor with modern teaching methods. With over 18 years of experience in Europe and North America, he has taught at prestigious international institutions (both public and private), and regularly speaks in Switzerland, France, Belgium, Luxembourg, and Canada, as well as at various forums and conferences. A recognized specialist, he offers personalized and accessible support (a blend of psychotherapist guidance and practical, hands-on coaching), based on active listening, a proven methodology, and tailored teaching methods.

Krav Maga - Personal Defense Go Right to the Goal: Body-Mind-Krav Maga

Krav Maga - Personal Defense Go Right to the Goal: Body-Mind-Krav Maga

Krav Maga: Modern Art It all starts with a choice: Refuse violence, refuse to be dominated by violence and even the fear of violence, be it verbal, emotional and especially physical. One of the means to achieve this goal: the art of Krav Maga Created in the late 1960s in Israel by Master Imi Lichtenfeld (1910-1998), Krav Maga was designed and forged especially to respond to any form of physical aggression. The basis on which Krav Maga is based is REALITY: it is unpredictable, multiform, brutal and forgives only very few errors. From this observation, it is easier to understand the characteristics of Krav Maga and especially what distinguishes it from traditional martial arts that also offer a module "self-defense". Krav Maga is indeed: -ambitious: he aspires to treat any situation of physical aggression be it against a aggressor without weapon, with weapon (knife, ax, machete, long stick, short, bat of baseball, rope, gun ... ), from any position (standing in the front, back, left, right, sitting on a chair, sitting on the floor, kneeling, lying on the back ...), regardless of the nature of the terrain, regardless of the brightness, whatever the weather. Humility: Reality imposes its conditions as the presence of STRESS whose effects must be recognized and never be neglected. -realistic: the fear, the nervousness, the anxiety felt by the individual in a situation of aggression do not allow him complicated gestures that he can not remember and that he can not even perform physically! -simple: short gestures, direct, linear most often, that go "straight to the point", easy to learn, easy to remember, easy to perform under ... stress! -Logic: it is the Principles that make Krav Maga and not the techniques that are only tools in the service of an Art that analyzes, reflects and provides the most accurate and efficient answer to the problem. -polyvalent: thanks to logic and pragmatism, Krav Maga gives itself the potential to resolve in a decisive way an incalculable number of problems because it can go towards "the unknown" by means of "known". -Educator: Through a pedagogy based on the pressure of the student, it gradually learns to manage his emotions, his mind, his body and gradually acquires greater self-control. -human: according to Imi Lichtenfeld's teaching, one must demand of oneself the highest level of competence so as not to have to take a life or even to hurt - as far as possible - his or her aggressors. I try to pass on the philosophy of the creator of Krav Maga, Master Imi Lichtenfeld, who saw his art as much more than a "defensive weapon" formidable for its efficiency. Indeed, Krav Maga is before a whole a vehicle to reach the blooming of the individual by the control of oneself thanks to the conscience of having adapted tools - because realistic - to manage and even to neutralize the violence under all its forms. The Art created by Imi Lichtenfeld is, as the experience of teaching proves, very flexible and endowed with a very great faculty of adaptation because each student shows different expectations. The greatest satisfaction is to see how the individual reveals himself to himself through Krav Maga which, by its simplicity and intensity, allows everyone, with sincere practice, to get to the bottom of his doubts and his doubts. fears. In a particular class, I am an instructor who asks the student of the intensity and physical and mental, curiosity, sense of observation, the spirit of synthesis, the ability to constantly search for the "common denominator In their practice of Krav Maga and ... good mood!

Academic Coaching: Study Skills, Planning and Organisation

Many students understand their course material but still find it difficult to get started, organise their workload or keep track of deadlines. This does not mean that they lack ability. Sometimes they simply need a clearer system and practical strategies that work for them. My academic coaching is designed for students who want to feel more in control of their schoolwork and become more independent learners. We begin with the your actual workload, current challenges and personal goals rather than using a single approach for everyone. Depending on your needs, we may work on: • planning weekly workloads and deadlines • breaking assignments and projects into manageable steps • developing sustainable routines for school materials, agendas and digital platforms • choosing effective note-taking, revision and exam-preparation strategies • improving focus, self-monitoring and reflection • building confidence in managing school responsibilities and asking for support Together, we identify realistic strategies, test them in everyday school life and adjust them according to what works. I am an education professional with more than 20 years of experience in teaching, special education and school leadership. I hold a Master’s degree in Educational Sciences from Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB). Throughout my career, I have supported students with a wide range of learning and support needs, coordinated individual learning plans and worked closely with teachers, families and specialists. I work in English with students following international, European, IB, IGCSE and other school programmes. With my background in special education, I can adapt the coaching to different learning, attention and executive-functioning needs. The focus is not on teaching a particular school subject. I help students use their own schoolwork and goals to develop strategies that they can gradually apply independently. Online sessions are available, as well as in-person sessions in Brussels. I am currently accepting enquiries for coaching beginning in October 2026.

Audio-Psycho-Phonology, according to Tomatis and Emotional Support

Audio-Psycho-Phonology, according to Tomatis and Emotional Support

Audio-Psycho-Phonologist with over 35 years of experience in helping and supporting people seeking emotional or physical well-being, I am also certified in Emotion and Body Code by Dr. Bradley Nelson. This allows me to offer those who want it considerable help through a simple, effective and also practical method because there is no need to travel! From a very young age and often already since intrauterine life, then as soon as we started to speak, we are "impregnated" with negative thoughts, emotions, feelings in our family, environment, often conveyed by social, media, education. These negative blockages are then reinforced and accumulated as our existence progresses. Freeing oneself from these negative emotions, these imbalances, these knots that have been able to settle in and block our daily life, also helps to "make them conscious" and to learn to recognize them, accept them, respect them and finally transform them in order to avoid trapping them again. We can thus be freed from: - Lack of motivation - Fatigue and lack of energy - Difficulty projecting oneself into the future, - Difficulty making decisions, - Feeling stuck in a situation - Professional or personal relationship problems - Decrease in memory, attention or concentration - Feeling unwell, lacking self-confidence - Worries, fears, anxiety... Etc. I offer to those who wish it, children, adolescents, adults, follow-up in the form of half-hour sessions once or twice a week, to gradually release this emotional burden and these imbalances. An initial interview via Skype allows us to explain in more depth the progress of the Emotion/Body Code sessions which then take place on site or via Skype.

Lesson hypnosis course with option for hypnotherapy or self-development

Lesson hypnosis course with option for hypnotherapy or self-development

They still exist: people who believe that hypnosis is not real, or that it is a paranormal activity. However, decades ago it was scientifically proven that hypnosis not only exists, but is also very effective in achieving all kinds of different goals. Thanks to the hypnosis course, you too can learn what exactly this fascinating state entails. This way you can not only learn to act, but also get a taste of our courses in debate and presentation techniques (our TV course), communication, singing, improvisation, physical acting, lie detection, hypnosis, directing, or writing! Of course, it remains true: the more you follow one particular course, the faster you progress. You can take both live and online lessons. 'Enlightenment is always preceded by confusion.' Milton H. Erickson What is hypnosis? To understand hypnosis, think of sunlight; that is diffuse and falls somewhat everywhere. However, if you bundle light through a number of crystals, you turn it into a laser beam. Hypnosis does the same with your attention. It is usually focused on several things at the same time. This way you not only see what is directly in front of you, but you also notice things to the left and right, in your peripheral vision. However, when you focus yourself and focus your attention on one point, you can achieve a hypnotic state. Our brains In the past, people who talked about hypnosis mainly talked about the two brain hemispheres. The left hemisphere controls the right part of the body (except the ears), the right hemisphere controls the left part of our body. Moreover, it has often been claimed that our logical thinking (including arithmetic) and our language are mainly located in the left hemisphere of the brain, and our creativity in our right hemisphere. However, this is only partially true. The reality is a lot more complex, and other parts of the brain often take over when a certain part is damaged. In ancient texts - and unfortunately often also in more modern writings - you often read that hypnosis additionally activates the right hemisphere of the brain. During brain scans we can indeed see that a different pattern emerges than when one is asleep or awake. However, the investigation into what exactly is going on is by no means complete. What we can say with certainty is that the brain usually works as if what is suggested is actually registered, as opposed to what happens when one simply imagines something! Numerous experiments (often with PET scans, such as the experiment by Henry Szechtman of McMaster University in Ontario in 1998, or the pain reduction experiment of Pierre Rainville of the University of Montreal a year earlier) have already shown this. Brain experiments give us a good example of why hypnosis is so effective in (among other things) pain relief. For example, during a well-known experiment, subjects were confronted with pain stimuli of different intensities. They had to report how much pain they were in while their brain activity was also recorded. The subjective experience of pain of the same intensity differed enormously from subject to subject, but the activated brain area during the pain experience was especially interesting: after all, this was an area responsible for memory and experience! How strongly you experience pain is therefore largely related to the way you deal with it and not only to the objective intensity! You will never do anything you don't want to do The above statement is also largely correct, but it must be qualified somewhat. A particularly small portion of the population—perhaps about one percent—seems to reach a state labeled “stuporous.” These people seem to do just about anything asked. However, we believe that this has nothing to do with a bad or unstable character, or with absolute control of the hypnotist. What is going on can be explained by the phenomenon of narrowed attention. Because a stuporous person is so concentrated on the task at hand, he or she is often no longer really concerned with what is happening around him or her. You stay active In any case, hypnotized people never behave like passive machines: they are actively solving their problems, and are also creative when not suggested by the therapist. However, most things that happen to them are experienced as 'effortless', as if everything happens 'by itself'. Not everyone has the feeling of being 'away': you usually maintain contact with the outside world during a hypnosis session. It is precisely because of the possibility of disturbance that spectators are usually asked to remain quiet during shows. By the way, it's important that you can hear the hypnotist, right? Harmless Hypnosis is absolutely harmless. Negative suggestions can be harmful, but that also applies to everyday life. Anyone who is constantly told by the teacher that he or she is not making any sense of it runs the risk of believing it even when it is not true, or of having a dent in self-confidence. This means that hypnotherapists - like all people - should certainly be careful with the suggestions they give! For example, we think that most (or all) people suffering from multiple personality disorder (where people believe they have multiple personalities) have been given false suggestions (not necessarily under hypnosis) by people talking about different 'parts' or 'personalities'. And what to think about fortune tellers, whose predictions often become true because people (unconsciously) direct their actions accordingly - which does not necessarily mean that they are all quacks. Research also shows that when reminiscing, people often fantasize things! A therapist must therefore be careful of this, especially when it concerns alleged incest or abuse, for example. You always wake up It is impossible to remain 'stuck' in a hypnotic state. Anyone who remained in hypnosis would simply fall asleep and then wake up sober. It seems that people also often experience a hypnotic state in daily life, for example when reading, watching TV, or practicing yoga or meditation. Tool As mentioned, hypnosis is often an excellent tool for treating all kinds of ailments and problems of a psychological or psychosomatic nature. And since body and psyche have a huge mutual influence on each other, this means that you can alleviate or eliminate a lot of suffering with hypnosis. For example, it has been frequently shown that hypnosis is very effective against allergies, psoriasis and anxiety, but hypnotic techniques are also often used to achieve positive goals.

“ It is with the utmost admiration and gratitude that I extend my effulgent endorsement for David, the epitome of mathematical tutorship. His fervor for the subject and his pupils is steadfast, and David’s commitment to ensuring proficiency and comprehension is manifest in every tutorial session. His availability is most pliable, as he exhibits a constant readiness to alter his docket to accede to the necessities of his students. This adaptability is rare and precious quality, one that has played a seminal role in my time near the finals. Not only do he demonstrate devotion during his scheduled lessons time, for he is always approachable for additional guidance and support outside his hours. David’s unwavering dedication to the academic success of his students is truly remarkable and deeply appreciated by those who benefit from it. What distinguishes David is not solely his mastery in mathematics, but his amiable and cordial demeanour. He cultivates a genial and hospitable environment; and his pedagogy a harmonious blend of professionalism and conviviality. I consider myself fortunate to have availed myself of David’s instruction, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. In conclusion, if you seek a mathematics tutor, David Devidze should be your first port of call. His passion for the subject, commitment to his students, and affable personality makes him the ideal tutor for anyone seeking to enhance their mathematical understanding and aptitude. A true gem in the world of tutelage ”

“ We are very happy with the French lessons Awni gives to our 14-year-old daughter. He is very flexible and adapts the lessons perfectly to her needs and level! He places special focus on pronunciation, vocabulary, listening skills, and conversation, while introducing interesting topics that make the lessons engaging and enjoyable. He is also willing to adjust the lessons to the homework and topics covered at school, which has been extremely helpful for her progress and confidence in French. Our daughter genuinely enjoys the lessons because Awni is motivating, clear, patient, and kind. He creates a positive atmosphere that makes learning fun and effective at the same time!! We highly recommend him as a French teacher! ”

“ Alberto is an excellent teacher: professional, focused, and fun. He takes the training seriously but keeps the atmosphere light and engaging with a great sense of humor. Although French is his main language, he also teaches in English, which makes the classes really accessible for us. He tailors his approach to each student’s level and physique. My girlfriend and I really appreciate how he adapts techniques to suit us individually. His private studio is fully equipped and comfortable. It's an ideal place to train, and he also offers collective courses. Highly recommended for anyone looking to learn Krav Maga in a supportive and effective environment. ”
