No! Dre is not a witch. And hypnosis is not magic, it's science.

Hypnosis is a (scientifically proven) natural process our mind/brain goes in and out of several times, daily. Naturally! When you watch a movie- you're in hypnosis. When you are in deep thought during your car-ride home from work, and can't remember driving a few miles and think you were on auto-pilot- you were in hypnosis. When you watch tiktok or online videos or scroll through facebook, you are in hypnosis. 

Advertisers of major brands know this, and use it to their advantage to make you a spending consumer, craving their products. When all along, you just thought it was your decision. That's a hard pill to swallow. But when you realize how powerful your mind is, you will find that using hypnosis to your advantage, gives you power back of your mind.

This is hard to answer, only because there are so many religions in the world. But, hypnosis & meditation are just relaxation. If it were named "Guided Relaxation Exercises", everyone would stop worrying if it is woo-woo or not in alignment with them. 

In the early 20th century, medical/pharmaceutical indoctrination began in American & Canadian schools, churches, and colleges. Long story short - Oil & Railroad Tycoon/Millionare, John D. Rockefeller, In 1907, discovered scientists were makeing vitamins and medicines with oil. Since John D. Rockefeller was an oil Investor, he decided to invest in this process. What followed, was complete conspiracy to make the American and Canadian Public believe that Pharmaceuticals (Pills) were the only way to a cure for anything, and homeopathic medicines were a waste of time and money. Not only that, he had medical schools only teaching pharmaceuticals. Any homeopathic remedy schools and homeopathic (Natural) Doctors were shut down and called "Quacks". He also had an Educator named Abraham Flexner investigate and publish a huge report on this subject, ultimately changing healthcare for generations to come. And to this day, Americans and Canadians mostly use pharmaceuticals/pills to maintain health and diseases. We rely on it. We have forgotten about homeopathic remedies and cures. All for the sake of one man's bank account. This is the same time we began considering natural practices, like relaxation/hypnosis to be associated with witchcraft, even though witches do not normally practice hypnosis. 

Ultimately it's up to you and whatever your heart leads you to. Follow it, and you'll never go wrong. Hypnosis is just like prayer and meditation. It's a natural process our brains enter and exit all throughout our day. Advertisers are taking advantage of these facts, and don't want you to know that you have the ability to heal your body inside, just as your body heals cuts, on the outside of your body. It's a matter of state of mind. This is a natural remedy God provided us in our miraculous brain. Use it to your advantage.

NO! During hypnosis, you become more and more in control of yourself. Nurse Dre is all about self empowerment and connection. She would never guide you to do something you don't want to do, and even if someone did, you would never do anything you morally disagree with, in hypnosis. Hypnosis actually gives you back the power of your mind.

Plus, Nurse Dre would never intentionally break the bond  between she and her clients. She believes "it takes a village to raise a child, and a world to raise an adult." Trust and connection to her tribe is most valuable to her.

There aren't documented physical or mental side effects caused by hypnosis.

However, Nurse Dre sometimes uses brainwave entrainment in her hypnosis sessions and recordings. This can include binaural beats, isochronic tones, and/or solfeggio frequencies. This music aides in the relaxation process and can contribute to incredible transformations. Children under 12 are advised to not use this kind of music, as their brains are still developing. It is unknown if the development of their brain would be affected by this music, so we say, err on the side of caution.

Most Hypnotherapists warn that people with epilepsy or seizure disorders not undergo hypnosis, due to the sudden changes that can occur in these individuals brains. However, Nurse Dre is open to using Command Cell Therapy on these individuals specifically for the purpose of easing symptoms associated with these issues. Command Cell Therapy is less hypnosis and more relaxation, repetition and reset.
