Mindfulness And self-hypnosis
for hot flashes

Hot flashes are one of the greatest challenges patients with hormonal cancers face, but there is genuine, deep relief to be found in self-hypnosis. 

​

In a highly cited, randomized control clinical trial, hypnotherapy was found to reduce hot flashes in breast cancer survivors by 68%! This workshop will teach the techniques used in the study and more, including education in self-hypnosis, guided imagery and mindset management practices. You'll learn to relax your nervous system and lower reactivity, re-orient your mind-body connection towards healing and away from hot flash symptoms, and learn some of the language of the body for more awareness and control. 

​​

Please plan to attend all three workshop dates. Self-hypnosis is a skill that must be practiced and improved upon to produce durable results. All workshop attendees will receive three progressive, downloadable self-hypnosis audio files to practice at home, and a neck pillow for comfortable self-hypnosis anywhere. 

​

Participation is free and limited to patients of the New Mexico Cancer Center and members of the Pink Warrior House. All those with a diagnosis of hormonal cancer (breast, prostate, cervical, etc) who are experiencing hot flash symptoms are welcome to attend.
