"With any type of Hypnotherapy process, the quieting of the mind chatter is a strong barometer for the success of the program. Every client that comes to Sanlyn Wellness has a differing degree of how strong their conscious mind is and how receptive their subconscious mind can be to suggestions for habit change. Without giving away specific details, examples are provided in this context that are generic as to protect the confidentiality of the clients."

Sanlyn Wellness has had clients eliminate smoking 25 cigarettes a day in as little as 1 session by closely listening to their reasons for wanting to end their smoking habit.  Some of the reasons were health related, while others were new relationships or the birth of a child etc.  Compassion and listening by Lynton were instrumental in allowing clients to feel safe and secure.  This made it easier for specific suggestions to be implemented, which had been discussed during the initial inquiry phase of the session.  There were however times where the conscious mind had deep and intense defenses in place that made it more difficult to stop smoking after 1 session.  There were some clients that had taken up to 4 sessions to quit smoking only 7-8 cigarettes a day because as mentioned above the defenses were stronger and the need to control situations were more focused in the forefront.  This is where Psychotherapy is used to figure out why the defenses are being resistant to change.  Lynton Friedman is well trained in both modalities and the combination of the techniques usually leads to a good result for the clients.  Reinforcement is also key to success of the suggestions sinking into the core subconscious part of the brain.

Lynton Friedman looks at the ROI, this is the rate of return on the investment.  With a high success rate at Sanlyn Wellness and not a huge amount being spent through the program, you are going to be saving a lot of money and improving your health over the long run.  To provide an example of this, let us use a client who smokes 25 cigarettes a day at $10.00/pack.  Take 7 days of the week and you are looking at $70.00 per week.  Take the $70.00 and times it by 4 and you are spending $280.00 a month.  Take $280.00 and times it by 12 and you have $3360.00 a year.  Take $3360.00 and times it by 12 years and you have $40,320.00 to spend on vacations, renovations for the house or to put into a retirement plan to name a few things.

One of the ways Lynton has had success in the past is getting the client to see that often there is secrecy and enabling behaviour that goes into the addictive process.  Not every addiction has an enabler, that being a person who encourages the behaviour, however more so from our experience there seems to be one.  Lynton Friedman is not a Clinical Medical Addiction Specialists, however he has been trained in addictions theory.  Sanlyn Wellness uses Psychotherapy and Hypnotherapy techniques which are excellent in finding triggers and reducing the impulses.

When clients have addictions, the underlying consistent factor across most client cases has been the numbing out effect of a situation or memory in their life.  Much of Sanlyn Wellness successes has come with intensive peeling away of layers of emotions to find the root cause which ultimately creates the effect, being the behaviour.  Psychotherapy is excellent to do this.  There have to be very good listening skills on the part of the therapist to catch the cues to look for and ultimately shift the behaviour.  Once these cues are in the forefront, Hypnotherapy can be used to reduce the impulse and reframe the situations being presented through the Psychotherapeutic process.

"Hypnotherapy is fundamental in creating visualizations that are long lasting and associated to reducing the desire for the activity or substance. One success story was a client who needed to stay clean from a hard drug for the critical 7 month relapse period. After a few sessions which mixed the above two techniques together, a visualization of a superhero who had the ability much like Spiderman to shoot webs out of his hands causing him to stick to the wall was placed into the subconscious. This particular suggestion was the one that kept this individual from seeking drugs and allowing him to clean up his life and move into a better space. "

Lynton Friedman has created a relaxed space in Sanlyn Wellness to allow the clients to feel safe and secure.  The empathic and calming approach to his work creates a space of trust and a letting go of negative control by the clients.  This is core to healing and stopping Addictions.  Sanlyn Wellness does not claim to completely guarantee an elimination of the behaviour, however there has been high success rates in reducing cravings and support structures to allow the clients to focus their energies into more positively channeled areas of their lives.
