On the You World Order Showcase Podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Craig Meriwether, a certified clinical hypnotherapist and the founder of Arizona Integrative Hypnotherapy. Craig’s work focuses on helping individuals eliminate limiting beliefs and the negative emotions, that hold them back from reaching their full potential. Our conversation was filled with powerful insights into how hypnotherapy can create transformative change.
Craig shared how his own journey led him to this impactful work. After years of struggling with self-doubt and frustration, he discovered the incredible potential of hypnotherapy to uncover and shift the subconscious patterns driving negative behaviors and beliefs. This realization set him on a path to become a clinical hypnotherapist and launch his practice in Arizona.
One of the key takeaways Craig shared is the idea that our subconscious mind is like a computer operating system, running programs we may not even be aware of. These “programs” include beliefs and emotions formed during childhood or through challenging experiences. While these patterns may have served a purpose at one time, they often become outdated or detrimental as we grow.
Craig explained that hypnotherapy is a state of deep relaxation and focused attention where the mind becomes highly receptive to positive suggestions and insights. Unlike popular misconceptions, hypnotherapy is not about losing control or being “put under a spell.” Instead, it’s a collaborative process where the client remains aware and empowered throughout.
Through hypnotherapy, Craig helps clients access the subconscious mind to identify and release the root causes of limiting beliefs and negative emotions. This process allows individuals to reprogram their minds for success, happiness, and fulfillment.
Craig highlighted some of the most common issues his clients seek help with, including:
One powerful moment in our conversation was when Craig emphasized the importance of awareness. He explained that many of us operate on “autopilot,” unaware of the beliefs that drive our decisions and reactions. Hypnotherapy shines a light on these patterns, helping clients replace them with empowering beliefs aligned with their goals.
Craig shared a story of a client who struggled with public speaking due to a deep-seated fear of rejection. Through hypnotherapy, they uncovered a childhood memory that had planted this fear. By reprogramming the subconscious mind, the client not only overcame their fear but also began thriving in professional settings that required public speaking.
Craig grounded his insights in neuroscience, explaining how hypnotherapy works on a physiological level. The state of hypnosis activates the theta brainwave state, which is associated with creativity, learning, and emotional healing. In this state, the mind is open to suggestion and change, making it an ideal time to implement new, positive programming.
Craig offered practical advice for anyone looking to overcome and eliminate limiting beliefs:
Our conversation with Craig was a testament to the power of hypnotherapy to create profound and lasting change. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, or other challenges, the key to transformation often lies in addressing the subconscious mind.
