What is Alchemy Alma?
Alchemy Alma is an online hub of transformative resources designed to harness the power of your subconscious mind created by certified and experienced hypnotherapist, coach and holistic practitioner Frankie Herbert. With guided hypnosis recordings, journal prompts, and tools for personal growth, we make the alchemical process of self-discovery accessible and fun.
How does hypnosis work?
Hypnosis is a deeply relaxed state where your subconscious mind becomes more open to positive suggestions. At Alchemy Alma, we blend the transformative power of hypnosis with the techniques of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) to create a uniquely effective approach to personal growth.
Hypnosis helps you access a deeply relaxed state, where your subconscious mind is more open to change. NLP, on the other hand, provides the tools to reframe thoughts, break old patterns, and create new, empowering behaviors. Together, they work synergistically to amplify results.
This combination allows for a faster, deeper transformation, making it easier to align your conscious desires with your subconscious mind. Whether you're looking to reduce stress, boost self-esteem, or embrace new possibilities, hypnosis and NLP offer a dynamic duo to support your journey.Through guided audio, we help you rewire limiting beliefs, reduce stress, and connect with your inner potential—all from the comfort of your home.
I have never experienced hypnosis before, does that matter?
No prior experience with hypnosis is needed! Each audio session is designed to gently guide you through the process, making it accessible to anyone who’s open to positive change. Hypnosis works best when approached with a receptive mindset. If you go into your session convinced it won’t work, it’s less likely to be effective. Like most things in life, the key to success is your willingness and desire to embrace change.
How often should I listen to the recordings?
You can listen as often as you like! We recommend that you listen to hypnosis sessions daily for a minimum of 30 days to be the most beneficial. Repetition is a powerful tool in hypnosis. Your subconscious mind thrives on patterns and consistency, which is why listening to a hypnosis audio multiple times can deepen its impact. Each repetition reinforces the positive suggestions, helping them take root and create lasting change.
Think of it as planting seeds: the more you water them, the stronger and more resilient they grow. With each session, your mind becomes more familiar with the messages, making it easier to shift your thoughts, behaviors, and emotions in alignment with your goals.
Repetition also allows you to experience the audio differently each time, uncovering new insights or feeling a deeper sense of relaxation. So don’t hesitate to revisit your favorite sessions regularly—your subconscious mind will thank you!The but it’s all about what feels right for you.
Do I need prior experience with hypnosis?
Not at all! Our recordings are designed for everyone, whether you’re a complete beginner or already familiar with hypnosis. Each session includes clear instructions to help you ease into the experience.
What if I fall asleep during a session?
That’s perfectly fine! Your subconscious mind is still listening and absorbing the suggestions. Many people find that they wake up feeling refreshed and renewed, even if they drift off. At the end of each hypnosis session, we gently guide you back to full awareness using a counting-up process. This ensures that even if you’ve drifted into a deeply relaxed or asleep state, you’ll naturally and easily wake up feeling refreshed and alert.
The count-up is designed to help you transition smoothly from the hypnotic state, so you can carry the benefits of the session into your day. Think of it as a gentle nudge, ensuring you return to the present moment feeling grounded and ready to move forward.
So, no need to worry if you nod off—you’ll wake up at the end, calm, clear, and rejuvenated.
How long are the sessions?
Most of our hypnosis sessions are twenty minutes in length, making them easy to fit into your daily routine. We have meditations from five minutes ranging up to an hour. You can choose a session length that suits your schedule.
Do I need special equipment?
Nope! All you need is a quiet space, a pair of headphones, and a willingness to relax. For an enhanced experience, we recommend finding a cozy spot where you won’t be disturbed.
Are these resources suitable for children?
Some of our recordings may be suitable for children, but we recommend reviewing the descriptions carefully or contacting us for guidance on age-appropriate options.
Can hypnosis replace therapy?
While hypnosis is a powerful tool for self-growth, it’s not a replacement for professional therapy. If you’re navigating serious mental health concerns, please consult a licensed therapist or healthcare provider.
Is hypnosis safe?
Yes! Hypnosis is a natural state that everyone experiences daily (like daydreaming). Our recordings are carefully crafted to prioritize your well-being and create a safe, supportive environment.
What are Alchemy Enhancers?
Alchemy Enhancers are extra resources, like journal prompts and affirmations, to deepen your experience and help you integrate the insights from your hypnosis sessions.
