Alcohol and Binge Drinking (March 2010)

"Thank you Sean for your help with my binge drinking. Though I was sceptical at first, your methods have allowed me to control my drinking by being in charge of my actions rather than feeling I was being controlled by alcohol.

I feel free!"

Weight Loss and Veggie-Phobia (March 2010)

"Hi Sean! Well, it's officially been 6 weeks since my 1st session and everything is going great! To my surprise I lost 8 lbs!!! I was so excited! Especially since my weight loss had plateaued before I came to see you. I've tried everything! I can't wait to check again in 6 more weeks.

I'm so happy that my friend heard you on Q100 and convinced me to call you. I'm no longer indulging in food for emotions and I've curbed my nightly ice cream cravings. I don't feel like I'm on a diet but I'm choosing to eat better and in smaller portions. I've even been able to give up caffeine and work out regularly. I feel great. I'm losing weight without the pressure.

The other reason I saw you was for my vegetable phobia. A horrible experience I had when I was young that prevented me from ever wanting to eat them again. I can happily say that I have tried everything that has come on my plate. I may not love everything, but I'm trying and finding out that I do like some things.

This has been an amazing journey. Not only has hypnosis helped me with my weight loss and vegetable obstacles, but it also helps me to relax! I can't wait to listen to my recordings every day. I love how it clears my mind and I've become more relaxed and less stressed! My husband has even seen an improvement. Apparently I used to be a nagger!

I can't thank you enough, Sean! Hypnosis has really changed my life and I would highly recommend you to anyone who has a phobia or needs help getting over that last hurdle in life's struggles.

Thank you again!"

Stop Smoking | 35-Year Habit (December 2008)

"I was a die-hard smoker. I never really thought I could quit.

I was hoping and praying that this would work. I just didn't know how easy and effortless it was going to be... just completely effortless.

I kept thinking 'I'm forgetting something... I don't know what I'm forgetting, but I'm forgetting something.'

I didn't even think about smoking. It didn't even enter my mind. Within a week or so, I truly forgot about smoking. It was just amazing. It was a miracle.

It's been four months and I know I'm never going to smoke again. I don't even think about smoking... it's the last thing on my mind. It's just not a part of my life anymore."

Stop Smoking (February 2009)

"Before, when I tried to quit, I had horrible cravings, my attitude wasn't very good, I became very easily agitated... and this time, it's been a breeze. I don't have the cravings. I don't have the irritability.

People say I'm more relaxed now that I've ever been in my entire life. I can be in social situations with others who are smoking, and it doesn't bother me.

I don't think about smoking. It's no longer a part of my life.

It is absolutely well worth your time and money to come see Sean... it really is."

Stop Smoking Seminar on World Hypnotism Day - Jan 4th, 2009

"Hi Sean! I wanted to give you a update on my experiences since your seminar. First and foremost I am smoke-FREE! I have been since the group seminar, and I've gone through some really challenging times in the last two months. I had tried every method to quit before, and with your help I have kicked this thing once and for all!

Thanks for all you do, it has really worked for me!"

Kristin Zimmermann

------------------------

"Hey Sean,

Just a quick update from me. I am still smoke free from our first and only session on World Hypnotism Day on January 4, 2009 (about 12 weeks later!). Seriously, you have changed my life more than I can explain and I don’t even think about cigarettes in my life.

I have friends who are now using my story as inspiration and I have been telling them about how fantastic it feels and how simple it can be. Also, my friend has been working with you and I know she is enjoying her time and feels like your sessions are very beneficial. I have a few other folks who I have referred to you for smoking so I hope they can find the success that I have found.

Thank you again.

Iraq War Vet Gets Well-Deserved Relief (March 2009)

"Hey, Sean. I'm not too entirely sure you remember me, but I had a visit with you just before Christmas. I just want to thank you so very much for everything. I still listen to our session every night just prior to falling asleep, and it totally helps me get in the right frame of mind to leave all of the day's worries and anxieties behind me.

Just recently I made the decision to completely stop taking the meds prescribed to me for sleeping/anxiety/hypervigilance, and I'm not lying when I say that I haven't slept this well in what seems like forever. Crowds aren't as much of a problem for me, and I actually give other drivers on the road the benefit of the doubt instead of losing my mind!

When I left your office that day, I felt a high and a peace that I believe helped me start a new chapter in my life.

Thank you so much for doing what you do, man."

  Public Speaking (Fall 2009)

"I just wanted to let you know that my presentation back in August went really well. I didn't look nervous at all, although I was but that is normal. Some people said that I was one of the best speakers in the class. After that I had another presentation, and it also went well.

Thank you very much for all your help."

Weight Loss and Healthy Eating (March 2009)

"I'm 58 years old and I've been through this before. They always said 'eat until you're full' and I'd say 'I don't know when that is,' but this is the first time now I'm actually realizing that I'm full.

There's no compulsion... I'm not looking through the cabinets for food because I don't need to. I don't have that need anymore because it's so natural. I'm not feeling deprived. I'm feeling balanced. I feel like I'm a skinny person. I had a moment where I said 'I think this is what's normal.'

I'm wanting to exercise. I want that good feeling. It's not that I have to... it's that I want to feel that way.

I am just so elated that I really feel that that everything I dream about for my future... I have a level of confidence now that all of those things will come to be, and it's not a pipe dream.

In a few weeks, I feel like I'm actually living an active part of my dream for the future... and it's fun!"

Stop Smoking (March 2008)

"I had quit once before on my own, and when I decided to do this I said 'I don't want to quit cold turkey again'... that was painful.

(After the hypnosis) I didn't do anything. I just forgot that I was a smoker. As soon as the thought came into my mind, it was gone... like, two seconds later.

I forgot about cigarettes, and my mind was just onto other things. It was painless."

Beverly Kearse
Austell, GA

Stop Smoking (February 2008)

"I had tried quitting cold turkey.... I tried the patch... I tried the gum... I tried everything. The hardest part was being at home. It was like "Oh, my God... I'm going to sit at my house and not have a cigarette? How am I going to do that? But (after the first session of hypnosis) it was a no-brainer.

I was so relaxed and so peaceful that I didn't need to smoke. My thoughts on cigarettes had changed.

I drank as I normally drink, but I had no desire for a cigarette.

I sleep ten times better.

Instead of doing the morning coffee and the cigarettes and going through the panic, I now get up, drink 12 ounces of water and go to the gym.

This is definitely one of the most positive things I've ever done in my entire life."

Stop Smoking - Successful for 7+ Years (Quit in Summer 2003)

"I want to thank you so much for helping me quit smoking. I smoked cigarettes for 14 years, and was beginning to believe that I would never be able to quit. I had tried everything from quitting cold turkey, to the patch, to gum, to nicotine lozenges... EVERYTHING! To make it even more difficult, I was an "all-day smoker," averaging a pack or more a day. So, I associated smoking with all facets of my life.

As much of a skeptic as I can be, I was very reluctant to try hypnosis. However, having now gone through your program, I am reaching my 4-month anniversary without so much as a single puff. I have no desire to start the habit again, and in fact, have recommended you to many of my friends so they can quit, too.

Thanks again, Sean, for helping me breathe freely again!

Here's to a healthy future!!

Cheers!"

UPDATE (July 2008) : "Hey Sean! How's life treating you?? I wanted to let you know
that I am still a non-smoker, and I am happy to say that I have not had one puff in over five years!! Thanks again for your help!!

UPDATE (Jan 2010): Sent me a message on Facebook after hearing me on Q100... and still hasn't had a single puff.

Weight Loss and Exercise (November 2007)

"Sean has an easy, welcoming, and reassuring presence. He asked good questions to get to the heart of my goals. The sessions are relaxing and effective, as are the tapes. My goals were to lose weight and exercise more. I have achieved both goals in a healthy time frame. I continue to listen to the CD's because as a result of doing so I have additionally become more confident and relaxed.

I highly recommend Sean as a hypnosis therapist."

Stop Smoking (January 2008)

"I just wanted to tell you how impressed and amazed I am by your technique. I haven't smoked since I left your office... haven't wanted to smoke... not gonna smoke... not feeling the urge to smoke. I've been in bars with people smoking... and I was drinking... and it looked disgusting.  I'm in awe. Thanks again."

   33-Year Fear of Cats (April 2003)

"Hi Sean! I finally got to show my family that I could be in the room with a cat and when  they saw me holding one they just could not believe it... my husband and children were absolutely in shock! They could not believe it, and after only one session. Wow !! I made believers out of them!!  Thank you so much!"

   Stop Smoking (March 2008)

"Sean's therapy program provides more than its initial session. He teaches you a new way to approach your problem and gives you the skills (and a really helpful CD) to manage it yourself. I went to Sean for only one session to quit smoking around 3 months ago and have been cigarette free since. :)

Thank you Sean, for giving me my lungs back. Since, I have been exercising and drinking lots of tea... and am in general better health and spirits. :)

A highly recommended method for quitting for good."

Weight Loss and Healthy Eating (April 2008)

"Hello Sean,

Just a heads up on the miracles of hypnosis.

Well, the bubble still hasn't popped. The weight continues to fall off and my friends cannot believe that I actually leave food on the plate and have grown accustomed to "to-go boxes". A first.  I want to thank you and slap myself for not thinking of this earlier. A lot of friends are still a bit skeptical and are paying close attention to my results. I am sure they will be calling you in the future.

So, thanks again for getting in this head of mine and getting me on the right track.

I owe you."

   Stop Smoking (November 2007)

"I waited to contact you so I could avoid any false alarms. Well, we did it! Thank you. I know you will say "Chris, you did it," but nope, sorry Sean, it took both of us! Ran the 5k (3.1 miles) at Turner Field last Saturday morning... 47 degrees and time was 33:01. Lost 4 lbs so far and no outrageous cravings. I am looking to free dive and scuba dive this spring with my new lungs, it should make a big difference!

Thank you, Sean."

   Stop Smoking (January 2007)

"I don't think it will be necessary for me to have a follow-up visit on Friday. Since hypnosis this process has been much easier than I ever imagined. There have only been two occasions since Friday when the desire to smoke was strong but they passed quickly. Best of all, I haven't had any difficulty sleeping. With the help of the CD you provided me and some of the techniques I learned from you, I'm certain that the problem is as good as conquered.

Thanks again!"

   Stop Smoking (2006)

"I have been a smoker for 20 years. My parents were smokers and all my sisters are smokers also, so I have grown up with smoke. I have been married for 4 years and my wife does not smoke. I was told about hypnosis about a year ago and if I ever decided to quit to let them know. Well, after a few months I decided that I wanted more info so I went online to find a hypnotist, and I was lucky enough to find Sean Wheeler.

When I walked into his home for the first time all I could think is I am afraid to not smoke because what will I do when I’m not smoking? Well, after an hour with Sean I have not had a smoke or even wanted one in one month. Oh, did I forget to mention that I was SMOKING TWO PACKS A DAY?

All I did was listen to Sean and listen to a CD that he gave me that I enjoy listening to every day for relaxation.

If you are not a believer in hypnosis or just thinking about it, let me tell you that my wife thanks Sean everyday to me."

   Stop Smoking (February 2005)

"I was ticked off about something the other day, and I *FORGOT* to want to smoke! I went to the gym to work it off instead. I had a couple of stops to make but I was an hour into my gym excursion before I realized that I hadn't thought about smoking! I cannot tell you how weird that is -- to actually forget something I did for 30+ years...

Most of the time it doesn't even occur to me. It's almost like I never smoked! It surprises me every time that happens...

I have mentioned to people recently that I feel like I am regressing -- or maybe just picking up where I detoured years ago. I am beginning to occupy my time with things that I enjoyed all those years before I started smoking. Yoga tonight. Horseback riding lesson on Friday. And- I got some rollerblades last weekend, so my friend and I will be headed to Piedmont Park sometime soon.

It's kinda cool :-)

Thanks-"

   Stress/Worry (Fall 2003)

"Through several years of working "too many hours" and worrying constantly about the state of others, I internalized anxiety and emotions to a point that I was constantly stressed. So much that I have not completely realized the harm that I was causing my body. As a release, I began to laugh, inappropriately in most situations, as a response to almost everything! The laughter was perfect because I could hide my true feelings, go above and beyond my expectations for work, and make everyone around me happy while keeping them at a "safe" distance. Then I decided something needed to change...

The hypnosis worked!!! The day after my session I noticed immediate changes in my behavior. My breathing became slower and my body felt more relaxed as a result of the ability to block worry out of my daily routine. I accept events for the way they are and accept the changes that need to be made more easily without concentrating on negative consequences that "might" occur "if" X happens. Now there is more time in my schedule to perform tasks with less procrastination, leading to more time to enjoy life and engage with others on a more personal level. I have become extremely social and the laughter has significantly decreased!

Thank you for improving my quality of life!"

  Confidence and Motivation (2003)

"Dear Sean,

I have to admit that before I worked with you, I was very skeptical about hypnosis and hypnotherapy. That being said, I wanted to let you know what a positive experience I had with you. The therapy was not at all what I expected. I felt completely comfortable and relaxed. I also remembered the entire session.

In the days immediately afterwards, I noticed that I was responding to the positive suggestions made during the session. I knew that I was responding to suggestions, yet I found myself pleasantly free to engage in the new behavior. It was as if I had become more capable of being who I wanted to be, and behaving the way I wanted to behave!

Thank you so much for your help!"

   Life-Changing Move (2003)

"I have a much clearer picture of what I want and feel stronger/more determined about protecting that vision. During a recent trip to New York, I was presented with a job opportunity that offered some security (ie a paycheck as soon as I got there), but that would not have been in line with my dreams/goals - I surprised myself by turning it down. Previously, I think I would have taken it, since I typically follow a more "safe" route. Now, I find myself feeling like I want to leave the "safe" route behind for a while and, instead, give myself a period of time to explore even my most remote dreams.

I am going to New York in a few weeks without a job, but I feel like this is what I am supposed to be doing - that it will actually allow me freedom to look for something new that is a truer expression of who I am and want to be. I also feel more confident about my ability to find what I want (as well as get my bills paid) when I get there. I feel strongly that something very good is going to happen if I continue to stay true to my gut and my dreams.

You're great at what you do and I appreciate you. Take care-"
