 Wendi Friesen
Wendi Friesen
is fascinated by hypnosis and the effect that suggesting
has on our body and mind She first began studying
Hypnosis and Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) and the
potential effects of the waking trance states that are
produced with language patterns, covert programming and
embedded suggestions. As she learned hypnosis, she
explored deeper states of trance and traveled to seek
out trainers in the US and in England, to become an
expert. Studying the effects of thought, belief, placebo
and suggestion on our physical state of health and
emotion allows her to experiment with her clients to
produce dramatic and unusual changes in the health and
physical state of a person. Wendi teaches covert
persuasion, hypnotic marketing, and body language.
Wendi’s seminars around the world show the effects of a
state of mind that is induced with suggestion. The
combination of over 12 years of research, over 10,000
clients, and 100,000s around the world in seminars and
her creative and intuitive mind, has made her an expert
in her field. She is a popular speaker for corporations,
sales teams, medical professionals, and athletes.
