SMOKING
The first testimonial below is from Jason Lamb, morning show co-host on Victoria BC radio station 91.3 The Zone . In Nov. 08 , I received a most intriguing phone call from morning show host of the Zone 91.3, Victoria’s local modern rock music station. He told me that Jason was going to be having a birthday in the near future and for his birthday had decided he wanted to give up his 20 year habit of smoking. Dylan asked if I would be willing to help. Well, after some discussion, we came up with our plan; on air hypnosis cessation sessions for Jason.On Monday Nov. 10th I was introduced to Jason on air. After much waiting to see hat kind of prank was going to be pulled on him for his birthday, I think Jason was relieved to find out what the gift was.Jason and I met privately to do our consultation and set up a post hypnotic suggestion so that I could hypnotize him rapidly at the station and then we followed up with three on air sessions. Below is the Blog Jason kept while we did our sessions.
Hypno-Blog - December 8th, 2008Well, no more hypnotism sessions are planned for now, because I'm still smoke-free! Not even a drag since November 20th. And this past weekend was the ultimate test. After the Nine Inch Nails show, my buddy and I went out and got pretty smashed. It was the first time I've drank any booze since I quit smoking, and I DIDN'T SMOKE!!! Wow. I can hardly believe it myself. I can't thank Linda Campbell enough or recommend her enough to anyone looking to give up the devil weed.JL
Hypno-Blog - November 25, 2008 - 4th Hypnotism Session Well, folks, what can I say? Shortly after our last session last Thursday morning, I had the last cigarette in my pack (around 11:30am). I never got around to buying another pack of smokes. I haven't had a puff or drag or anything since then. Linda came in this morning, and I had to give her a hug. It is truly remarkable how easy it's been the last five days. 20 years of smoking...done. Linda hypnotised me again on the air, to reinforce my reasons for quitting, and to make sure they stay permanent. We'll check in with her again in a week or so. I can't thank her enough. And a big thanks to Dylan for getting me the hypnotherapy for my birthday.
Hypno-Blog - November 20, 2008 - 3rd Hypnotism Session This morning, I had my second on-air hypnotherapy session with Linda Campbell. It was our third session overall. I've definitely seen a progress, as I am down to just a couple cigarettes a day now. And I've eliminated the first one in the morning. I felt that this morning, I went down a little 'deeper' into hypnosis before. Linda worked on some positive reinforcement, sort of like a 'pep talk' for my quitting smoking. She also focused on my motivations for quitting, There are many, but the main one is my little boy. I want to be around to watch him grow up, and I don't want him to pick up the habit on account of me. I'm thinking about starting the nicotine patch, just to attack this thing from two fronts. Looking forward to seeing Linda here again on Monday.JL Hypno-Blog - November 17, 2008 - 2nd Hypnotism session this morning, Linda came into the station and hypnotized me live on the air. It was weird; I felt like I went into a deeper state of hypnosis even though there were a lot more distractions (Dylan, music, Dylan, etc).It's very hard to describe the feeling to someone who has never been hypnotized. I was completely aware of everything around me, but happy to stay in a state of semi-consciousness.I haven't completely quit smoking yet, but I am totally confident that I will with this process. Linda returns Thursday, so we'll see how session #3 goes. Until then,- Jason Lamb
Hypno-blog - November 14, 2008 - Day 2 after my hypnosis It was a pretty cool experience getting hypnotized on Wednesday. I believe it is working. I've had a couple cigarettes since, but they've tasted awful. Linda was really great, made me so relaxed. It wasn't as scary as I thought it was going to be. I also had the best sleep of my life the night after my hypnosis, something she said would happen. I can't wait to get hypnotized again on the air on Monday. I am totally confident that I'll be able to quit the smokes for good soon. If anyone is interested in what Linda Campbell does, you can check out her website.- Hypnotically yours, Jason Lamb
a more recent email from Jason:
Hi Linda - Just wanted to drop you a line and say 'Happy Holidays'. I am still smoke-free, and it's been more than a month now. I can't thank you enough.It's the best Christmas present I could hope for, and I am still quite surprised at how easy it's been. I know we've gotten many phone calls asking about what you do. Have a great Christmas and we'll see you in 2009! Jason.

WEIGHT LOSS
It has been awhile and I thought I should send you a short note giving you an update on my weight loss.
The weight loss has been slow, 36 lbs to date but I have to say that I believe had it not been for hypnotherapy I may not be at the point where I am today. I was laid up over Christmas, having had a fall ...My first week back, I had only gained 1lb. Now for me, that was one of those "wow" moments.
A friend of mine was commenting on how my attitude toward eating had changed, how she felt that I was making better choices and how much happier I seemed to be. I have not used my scooter in some time now and I'm exercising on a regular basis. Another friend of mine, just last night, commented on how much happier I was and when we went out to dinner I was now ordering seniors portions instead of the mega meal. I had not realized what I was doing but others have noticed. I firmly believe that hypnotherapy was the turning point for me. I don't know what else to say except thank you so much for being a part of changing my life. Your absolute professionalism and your kind and caring manner were instrumental in making me the 'loser' (tongue in cheek) that I am today and I just wanted to let you know how grateful I am.
Blessings and continued success in your chosen profession."

"I was referred to Linda to help with a weight loss plan as I struggled for years to lose weight and keep it off. After a few sessions working on issues around my self-confidence and family of origin patterns I immediately came away with a different perception of my self and my body and how others saw me. She helped reinforce numerous healthy patterns to assist me with loosing weight and working toward my goals. The patterns feel like the right thing to do with no question and are easy to follow. Through this experience I appreciate my body, feel confident about who I am and the decisions I make in all aspects of my life, my eating behaviours have changed, and I am steadily loosing weight. Thank you Linda "

I think that Linda is not only an incredible hypnotherapist but an outstanding teacher as well. We have almost completed the first section of the course (basic hypnotherapy) and I have enjoyed every moment of it. Her outline is clear and concise and she teaches with enthusiasm and ensures that we as her students completely understand not only what we are doing but why we are doing it, a step that is often left out in some teaching.
Sandy , Victoria BC
Becoming a Certified Hypnotherapist has been extremely rewarding. Linda is an excellent teacher and the course content is exceptional. Linda delivers above and beyond the course curriculum with her own valuable experience and knowledge.
Thank you.

My training at the Horizon Centre has been a privilege. It has been an eye-opening view into the minds of others and myself. The knowledge and accountability I have acquired through this informative, inspiring and hands-on program, and through the diverse and most interesting students, has progressed and matured me to the point of pursuing a Hypnotherapy company of my own. Linda, and the techniques of hypnosis are valuable catalysts to the strides of change I have made throughout my training. I appreciate her endless patience and real-life knowledge she displayed and shared throughout the course of working with her. Linda’s interest in her student’s personal progress sets her and her program apart from others in British Columbia. I have made wonderful new friends and colleagues for life! A real joy.

Hi Linda,
I came to see you around this time last year and I have yet to thank you for all you did for me. My outlook has completely changed and I really do feel as though you were to key to unlocking my new found confidence and self esteem. So many people have said they cannot believe how happy I am compared to last year. I feel as though you gave me my life back.
Thank you again,
CS
Thank you for the hypnotherapy sessions I had with you. They helped me get through a difficult time, and they were thoroughly relaxing to boot! I recall feeling as if a fog had lifted and the sun had come out, and it was all inside my head. Thanks again for that, you provide a wonderful service and I'll never hesitate to recommend it.
Best,
Mary-Lou
