Ep81 - Doug O'Brien: The Language of Music and Mental Health

Doug O'Brien has never been too far from therapy. After all, he spent years as a musician....which, it in itself therapeutic. But, after playing some of the greatest musical venues in NYC, a shift in his life turned his focus to another form of emotional well-being. And what started as a hobby became a thriving career. Internationally recognized as an expert in Ericksonian Hypnosis, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Havening, Doug shares more with Hilary and listeners about his journey into mental health. But, also how the lessons he learned from music are always one note away.  You'll also discover the impact behind the power of persuasion and why words matter.  And the true power behind slowing down and finding the perfect beat that can help you live a happier, healthier life.  Find out more about Doug O'Brien and his work and to download "Be Your Best at Self-Hypnosis, visit  his website.
