My Testimonials
Lani Buess has put me back together! I hadn’t quite realized how separated I had become, the scientist on one hand the healer on the other. Now thanks to her insight and skill, there’s harmony again.
If anyone wonders about the benefits of a tailor-made session just ponder the phrase “one size fits all.” Would everyone be able to wear and be happy with the same hat? Go for tailor-made if you want it to suit you and fit you, for sure, same with hypnosis!
Lani worked with me to uncover the symbols and language that I use when talking about myself and my life, past, present and future. Then the magic began, she combined her skills with NLP, hypnosis etc., to weave a new set of images which were congruent with what I believe and yet more powerful and positive. She didn’t put the two halves together with force, she just allowed me to see they weren’t ever separated. I am many things and they aren’t mutually exclusive, I don’t have to choose to be this or that, they’re all my resources.
Last night there were lovely insights and I came away feeling empowered and eager to try out the new me. Stepping out on my own in September will be something to look forward to (Lani I promise to keep updating you with my progress).
What I do know already is this is life changing. The fear of “will I be able to do this, actually be visible in my new business venture and ask for money?” Thanks to Lani the answer is, “Hell Yes!” I’ve always been ready, I just forgot for a while.
It’s the smile that starts it all. A smile that tells you “I understand”. In the first instance, you’re seen, heard, and felt. A connection is made and you are ready, no, want to work and change.
That’s what it’s like to team up with Lani on a journey to a better self. As she sits with you and easily allows you to express your desires, Lani, with bright intense eyes and colorful voice, instantly devises a plan to convey the way to unwind what binds you or what you want to better.
She demonstrates, expresses, and delightfully shows you her skill as a master practitioner and instantly inspires you to to want your change for you. Because it’s important that YOU want to change for YOU!
Walking down many paths that almost all of had to go through, Lani connects with you in a deep way that you feel like your talking to your closest friend or family member (or for me, the Sensei at the top of the mountain). I highly recommend her for your path into learning the many benefits of NLP and change work and I owe her my eternal gratitude for allowing me to learn and grow with her.
Oh, bring coffee too. She loves it! 😉
I came to Lani for help with a deep-seated belief that has stubbornly resisted change. Due to my past, I had somehow come to equate love with pain and self-sacrifice. This belief was ruining many of my relationships.
When working with Lani, I immediately noticed how comfortable I was with her energy. I also felt safe and in good hands. She guided me on a journey to discover the roots of my belief. Once found, she then expertly guided me through a custom process for shifting that core belief to one that is more aligned with who I truly am.
I love the results of my session with Lani. The following week, I felt an immediate difference in the way I responded to people in my life. My behaviors and emotions were more aligned with how I want to experience my relationships.
Lani is a rock star of personal transformation, truly a talented change agent. I highly recommend her to those seeking to transform their life from the inside out.
When I first met Lani, I was instantly at ease, and felt I could be my total and complete self. She was very present, and energetic, full of life and vibrancy. She believes in people’s innate power, their ability to succeed and reflects that. I felt like, I was talking to a real old friend! We worked together numerous times. I felt very comfortable, being receptive, going into trance, and letting her guide me where I needed to go. I was impressed with her knowledge of the art, her intuition, and combining that, to create a meaningful and transformational session for me, the client, numerous times. I remember, being shocked by how such big things changed so easily. Like there was no more emotional charge to them. One specifically that comes to mind, is Procrastination. We worked with that, and when I got home I delved into what I needed to. It’s been about 3 days now, still unhindered to do what I want to do, and need to. * Stellar * 10/10 *
Thank you so much Lani Rose Buess! I feel a million percent better after our first session & would recommend this to everybody who has blocks, life-limiting fears or just don’t get along with themselves. You, my lady, are a legend. I am inspired. Xx
I truly LOVE Lani’s meditations and always leave feeling so refreshed and energized! They utilize universal themes like exploring space between thoughts, clearing out negative mind-clutter, and overcoming obstacles to reach your goals. Whether you want to feel more empowered or just need a mid-week pick-me-up, these meditations are for you!
I am a Life Coach and Work-Skills Instructor working out of Orlando, Fl.
There came a point in my life when, rather than me being the one to help fix matters, I needed to seek help in tending to my own.
I decided I needed someone who could offer a deeper insight than I was able to arrive to at the time, as well as someone to understand my position of being in the inside of the coaching/ help-skills community.
I had lightly touched on such topics with Lani in the past and had always appreciated her offerings so when the time of need came, the choice was clear to go with her.
From the very first, and throughout all of our sessions, I was made to feel comfortable and secure in sharing my information as well as being vulnerable at times.
She had a way of listening without judgement and, in the process, encouraging me to not be so hard on myself.
I found her to be incredibly good at helping me flip what I had perceived to be a negative redundant behavior and uncover the ‘why.’ This caused me to take my attention off the symptom and instead, focus more on what I thought I was gaining from the behavior. We were then able to boil it down and get to the root of what deficiency was being satisfied.
This description doesn’t even begin to do justice to what I have gained working with Lani. It was a profound experience that has led to me being able to purge what I had been hanging onto for years! I continue to use the different techniques she employed.
I highly recommend Lani Rose Buess if you are looking for someone who is astute and tuned into the empathy needed to do such work. Her way of flipping things around in order to bring something hidden to light was super impressive and highly effective.
(Lani) kicked some serious coaching ass with me. That was no joke, (she) identified, personified, and came to resolution with conflicting emotions. That was seriously cool. So many people could use that in their life, but not many could help them with it.
Her blend of hypnosis and NLP is borderline magical. There was a certain event from long ago that I had been making progress on, but couldn’t quite articulate the impact it had and what bothered me about it. She was able to completely transform my perspective and deliver a totally new awareness to my past self. It was freaking amazing!
I got the opportunity to experience Lani’s masterful skills with helping people overcome sabotaging belief and habits that are keeping them from the life the truly desire. I would definitely recommend working with Lani if you want to achieve your goals quicker and more effectively.
I know Lani as an experienced hypnotherapist and NLP practitioner. The first thing I noticed when I worked with her is that innate flow of her voice paired up with her vast skill set which will help you lead you to the change in your life you’re looking to make. I know that she studies some of the most effective personal change work there is, and that because she helped me change and then learn the skill after the change was made.
Feeling relentlessly stuck and capable of sinking only further, I was struck by an initiative to change.
Lani’s coaching principles, values, and her willingness to appease my burden, were unmistakable. She attentively empathized with me over the uphill, piggybacking of social angst.
In the summer of 2015, determined to enlighten the crowd as best-man at my brother’s wedding, I had rehearsed my speech ad nauseam. Although my hands mimicked helicopter blades, and the trembling convinced the guests that I was capable of being a human jackhammer, I finished. Like a short-tailed squall, it was over. Yet I felt that a crucial component was missing.
Had I found Lani prior to the wedding, I know, that the sense of control I had lacked during those moments, would have instead been harnessed with composure and spontaneity. I’m wholeheartedly convinced that the resources discovered through her, would have transformed word-for-word dialogue, into sought after, lighthearted, barbershop banter.
Through countless interactions with wellness professionals, it’s a privilege to be in the presence of an established individual who truly listens. Lani’s compassion assures you that confiding in her, is the invitation to finally releasing your pain.
Because she has overcome parallel tribulations, not only do her methods hit home, but I find solace in her uplifting authenticity. Investing your trust in Lani will enable you to flow more effortlessly through life, steamrolling your most heavily-fortified boundaries in the process.
Words may not convey the extent of gratitude I have for Lani; for the tactics that have propelled me from the never-ending quicksand, for having faith in bettering the human condition, and of course, for the madeleines…which will always hold a spot, both in my pocket and my heart.
I met Lani at Liberate Hollywood.
I felt at ease as soon as we started talking, she is very kind and she has a vibrant, positive, loving energy that surrounds her. I read some pieces of information here and there and I asked Lani some questions on how hypnotherapy works and what hypnosis therapy can do for a person and decided that I wanted to try it out.
I comfortably sat down and she began slowly guiding me into a feeling of well-being. She counted down in waves from 10 to 1, at each wave she guided me into higher levels of feeling a sensation of relaxation and comfort. At the beginning my mind wandered off to repetitive thought patterns but her guidance made me come back to reaching, activating that feeling of well-being. Every time I heard her guiding me it felt as if it was me reminding myself to let go. Slowly I became free of a clutter of thoughts, around wave 5 I became aware that throughout her guidance that I myself have the power to activate a healing process by just allowing myself to feel a deeper level of relaxation within each wave. It’s amazing how one can let go and come to this state of feeling totally comfortable, it feels powerful, just by allowing yourself to be at ease, because I know how that feels like.
I told here beforehand that I wanted to stop smoking, at this moment I had quit smoking already for two days, that I wanted to get back in shape again and that I felt something was blocking me in order to facilitate this proces, I felt like I was stuck, it felt unbalanced.
After guiding me throughout the 10 waves of becoming totally comfortable and being in a state of total relaxation, feeling at ease, she guided me to create a theater. In this particular session, a theater just for me to be in, I created a movie theater. I created a big theater with a big screen that had a big red curtain in front of it. I created seats, walls, lights, and a beautiful ceiling with all different kind of patterns in it. I then took a seat, funny thing was I stood up and looked around for a better seat to sit in. So when I visualized myself sitting comfortably, Lani then guided me into projecting a version of myself on the screen in front of me. The curtains slowly opened up and the film started to reveal itself on screen. My intentions where that I wanted to stop smoking and be in a better shape overall, so I started projecting that version of me on screen, I did not have any trouble at all with projecting that version of myself on screen. I knew how I wanted to be, no heavy thinking came to play, I just knew, it was already inside of me.
Lani guided me into sensing how that version of me felt like. I saw myself and I looked at myself and I saw a more balanced, feeling at ease, healthier version of myself. What was so interesting to me is that I looked at myself from the outside, that better version of myself projected on the screen from the seat I was sitting in but at the same time I felt more fresh, I felt more free, more balanced, more vital. I came to the realization that I did not think, feel or see that I was not smoking anymore, or that I was not in the physical shape I wanted to be. It was just gone. Like that stress was not there anymore, it had left me, it was not a problem anymore. I felt really good, it’s quite amazing that I, in a short period of time, traveled to that state of being, because I did that myself. Lani did not tell me what to do or how I should do it at any giving moment, she guided me in a totally neutral way of finding my own power, I think to a state where I was being able to create and integrate.
I was now guided into letting that projection of myself come out of its projection on screen and let it slowly flow to me sitting in my chair, letting it integrate with me, becoming one. I directed or envisioned that better version of myself slowly flowing sort of hovering towards me, knowing that it would integrate with me, guiding me to sense and become aware of how I now felt. I noticed that I was feeling really good. I was just in a state of well-being, feeling connected with myself, didn’t feel or think about anything else. I was not in the theater anymore, I reached a point where I was just feeling peaceful.
Slowly she guided me back. Afterwards it struck me, when we started talking about how everything went down, that her timing of guiding me corresponded really well with me, it all just felt very smooth and natural. She sensed it really well.
Let me say that at any given moment I could have opened my eyes, [gotten] up and walked away from our session. Meaning to say, that at all times you maintain your awareness and ability to make your own decisions.
My intention for this particular session was that I wanted to find power of letting go of an unhealthy, destructive habit, that is smoking, which made me feel unbalanced. Because almost every time I smoked a cigarette, I actually felt that I did not want to smoke cigarettes, but I would continue smoking and I would have negative thoughts of myself, at times throughout the day. I even thought when I was actually not smoking that I wanted to not partake in smoking cigarettes anymore.
I felt bad about smoking, but it was as if I said to myself, it’s too difficult, because I did not believe I could do it. I now realize that that was where my problem lay. These thoughts and feelings would happen really fast and then I would, let’s say, put it in a jar and close the lid and forget about it, be ignorant about it. I thought and searched for ways to stop smoking, but then I would just read it and sort of think about it, but something was missing for me. Every time I was trying to follow different kind of steps that I had read about or heard about from other people it felt like I was just following certain steps, if I just perform this step and that step I would be alright. I found myself having a hard time sticking with a certain method, because I think I consciously and unconsciously before, during and after did not see myself as a nonsmoker. I did not believe I could do it, I lacked willpower etc. It felt as if I was following something that was outside of me. Over time this stress builds up, combined with other factors of life where you’re trying to figure out how to find balance, it becomes a part of you to the point it’s not even clear anymore why you’re having negative thoughts and feelings about yourself, feeling helpless.
It just worked really well for me, at this very moment of writing my review I have not smoked for 22 days. At the beginning I found myself sort of automatically thinking about smoking a cigarette at certain moments throughout the day, when I am on my own or see someone smoking, or am at places where I would usually smoke my cigarette. But by then envisioning myself, remembering myself that I do not want to smoke I now also remember how it feels to not smoke anymore, so I do not fight against it anymore. I’m not having negative thoughts anymore. I stay with that feeling of well-being, the feeling I know I feel when I don’t smoke, that I feel great. I then mindfully let go and slowly move away from that still integrated behavioral pattern, but I now have the power to act upon it. I notice that everyday it becomes less and less of a thing to work on, between now and a week ago I barely even thought about smoking, some days it doesn’t even come up, noticing this makes me feel happy, proud and strong. So instead of going through automatically strenuous thoughts, which would generate negative feelings, I go to that thought and feeling combined, knowing now how I feel in that state of well-being where I don’t smoke.
She offers different protocols of hypnotherapy which I am very curious about.
There are different aspects of myself I want to work on and I will definitely discuss this with Lani to find out if we can work on it together. Find out if, and or how, I can use this experience for other problems, or maybe I can combine it with other protocols she offers. There are a lot of options.
I would definitely recommend contacting Lani, for information on the different protocols she offers to find out what might suit you best and then work on it.
With the power of the soul anything is possible!
It suddenly occurred to me one day that there might be a connection between recent awkward moments in social activity and a childhood occurrence. “Feelings” I experienced as an adult would come on without warning in normal conversation. For example if conversation turned to me personally or my art, I could suddenly be overwhelmed with the inability to think/speak, “clamming up,” “feeling choked” would be the result. I wondered if feeling choked may have any connection to a childhood bout with whooping cough.
Lani walked me through a NLP technique that allowed me to revisit my childhood trauma from a different p.o.v. , where I was no longer the frightened choking victim but an observer. From this position I saw that I could remain detached and see the event more clearly.
At about ten years old I came down with whooping cough. This manifested in waking up from a sound sleep and being unable to breath. I can remember going from sleep to standing upright beside my bed making a terrible sound trying to grasp for air. An added discovery during the NLP technique, was that I was able to see my sister who slept in the bed beside me and how she experienced the situation as well. I saw her also being wakened from a sound sleep to the terrible sound of her little sister gasping for air. She had panic in her eyes as she pounded my back and called for my mother. (This picture of my sister brought clarity into my current relationship with my sister-which was an unexpected bonus-and has helped me to understand her more).
Two things that were very powerful to me. During the process I was shown how to 1. locate a “safe place’. and 2. Enter the scene as an observer who had power in the situation.
When I found myself in a social setting after the NLP session … as I began to feel overwhelmed and choked in a conversation … I automatically saw myself in my “safe place” ( that I established during the session). In the moment I was able to hesitate, take a deep breath, acknowledge that I was OK, and continue the conversation knowing/feeling that I was safe. I also feel a new freedom in my relationship with my sister.
“I am so motivated to DO. Right Now. I’m amped and wired and taking small steps to being active and curious. These discoveries are amazing. I haven’t even sipped my coffee today and I’m already super focused. Big. Thanks. To You! … And while I am proud of myself, my inner child and I have you to thank for bringing our awareness to all of this.”
“Lani helped me build confidence in approaching a difficult situation at work with my boss. Lani also helped me learn to ‘speak the same language’ as my boss which made it easier to ask for something I wasn’t previously comfortable/confident asking for. Thanks to Lani, I was able to confidently hold the conversation and request what I previously feared without fear. “
“(Our first) session got me thinking in another perspective. It’s been very helpful with the relationship with my brother and family.”
I did one hypnosis session with Lani. She helped me identify a way in which I was really stuck but unable to define, and then she facilitated a hypnotic “working through” of the problem that helped me far more than I had expected or could have imagined. She was so helpful, in fact, that it has been about a month since we had the session and I haven’t experienced the problem since! She is also just a great person to be around. She’s warm, smart, and kind, and I felt totally understood and appreciated in her care. I recommend her highly.
