Alexander Technique, Mindfulness Hypnosis, and Guided Meditation
Lilly Sutton, M.S.
Welcome!
I’m Lilly Sutton, teacher, coach, and founder of Appalachian Health and Healing. My work integrates the Alexander Technique, mindfulness, hypnosis, guided meditation, and other wholistic methods to help you move forward with what matters to you and live the life that you want to live.
What kinds of things would we work with in a session?
Because our work is wholistic, the potential benefits are broad and wide-ranging. Sessions can simultaneously help you feel better, think better, act better, and even look better.
Some clients come for help with physical pain, stress and anxiety. Others want help coping with a major challenge such as dealing with cancer or grieving a loved one. Some need support during a major life transition, such a divorce or career change. Many want to strengthen their relationship skills, such as setting boundaries, asking for what you want, listening, and being more present. Others want help with a specific goal, such as preparing for a job interview, playing an instrument or sport more comfortably and powerfully, or eating more mindfully.
The benefits of sessions can include:
- Release excess tension that causes back pain, neck pain, TMJ, and more
- Be more centered and think more clearly, even in challenging situations
- Release self-limiting, unproductive patterns and find what works for you
- Have compassion for yourself when you’re not at your best
- Stop focusing on what you can’t change and take control of what you can change
- Achieve relief from anxiety, panic disorder, and insomnia
- Breathe more fully, freely, and naturally
- Feel less stressed, more balanced and at ease
- Be more present for others, and for yourself
