I scheduled a Skype session with Moonshadow after viewing several episodes of his interactive web…read moreshow (INSIGHT with Moonshadow). I had gone to a few "new age" and "intuitive" therapists before, but always left thinking they were a little "out there" and that their methods were not quite in tune with my personal approach to mind/body/spirit wellness. Moonshadow is different. He calls himself "Earthy-crunchy" which, to me, translated into approachable and practical. He is warm, friendly, and works with YOUR goals (not some woo-woo agenda) to help you become the best, most balanced person you can be at the moment. He takes all your current life situations and beliefs (including faith, if you have one) into consideration, and gives you tools you can use to manage issues like stress, grief, and loss. A main theme of our session was how I can incorporate mindfulness into my everyday life. He lets it be known that everyone is a "work in progress," and that mind/body/spirit balance is a life long journey. I really appreciated that understanding as I am far from perfect and would not have much respect for a healer who promised a "quick fix." His rates are reasonable for the industry and a bargain, I think, for someone who is versed in so many healing modalities and has over 30 years of experience.

I don't know if Mr Koenig is a good hypnotist. I never had the chance to find out. I called…read moreseveral hypnotists first thing Monday morning. Mr. Koenig was the first to return my call, within hours of my voice message. After speaking briefly with him, he asked if I was available on that Friday, as he'd had a cancellation. I was so ready to get started and said I would move an appointment I had. On Wednesday he called me to ask if it was possible to move our meeting up to 1:45 as that would work out much better for him. I agreed. Warwick is a 45 minute drive from my house. I got lost finding the building (drove past it and then gps gave confusing instructions) but had left extra time and still arrived at 1:44, flustered but on time! There is no receptionist, and I was unsure what to do despite watching a video on his website. So I sat. At 1:50, I knocked timidly on his office door, afraid he might still be with someone. At 2:00 I knocked more forcefully, At 2:05 I left, leaving a voice mail to let him know. At 2:20 Mr Koenig called to tell me he was sorry but since he didn't have a secretary, he'd failed to put my appointment in his calendar. I don't understand how. He was the one who arranged the appointment. He offered a free session but how could I trust someone to induce a state of hypnosis who had so little regard for showing up to an appointment he (not a secretary) made. A first appointment with a new client! People make mistakes, but in my book, this was huge and speaks to either being absent-minded or unprofessional, neither being characteristics I would want in a hypnotist. I've never been hypnotized before. I had a great deal of trepidation. Maybe if it had been a second or third meeting I could have laughed it off. How do I know that this isn't indicative of other aspects of his practice? I wasn't going to post a review but I felt obligated to share this experience with others UPDATE: (APRIL 1, '20) Why am I updating my review after a year? Mr, Koenig continues to contact me asking me to change my review! My review is fair and objective. I have written nearly 200 Yelp reviews and I have never been badgered to change my review! I reported exactly what happened and I explained why I lost confidence in his professional behavior. I believe this is valuable information to share with the Yelp audience. Was it really the only time in thousands of interactions that he's erred? Who knows! How unlucky was I to be the sole recipient of his negligence. It's also frustrating that he has never once sincerely owned up to this error. He blamed it on not having a secretary and yet he was the one who contacted me throughout the week, scheduling the appointment and then revising it because it would be "better for him." As someone with advanced degrees in counseling and psychology, I am aware that a professional must make a commitment to establish trust and security with a first-time client. He failed to do that and failed to recognize the damage he did. Each time he contacts me, he blames me (most recently) for being unreasonable and a bully. This provides only further evidence of questionable professional behavior and honestly only makes me more sure that I am justified in my rating of him. Should I have taken him up on his offer for a free session? Would I have felt safe being hypnotized by someone who was unable to keep track of a commitment he made for himself? I lost all trust and faith in him. I am quite upset that he continues to contact me and attempts to manipulate me into revising my review. And quite frankly, I also think it's highly inappropriate that's he's recently edited his response to my review to include a promotion for his new online "Covid 19" services. Sorry, I won't back down. I have written a fair and honest review and I will notbe intimidated or embarrassed into recanting it. UPDATE: (July 2020). In addition to everything stated in my previous remarks, it's important to let potential customers know that periodically I wake up to multiple notifications that Mr. Koenig has responded to my post. It's not a new message but a revision of the one he's already revised multiple times. This morning, for example, there were three notifications meaning he edited and re-edited his response to me three times. I've asked him to stop contacting me and while I haven't received an email since the last time I warned him that I would go to authorities if he continued to barrage me, these late night revisions feel very much like a continuation of his harassment. Why does he feel the need to continue to edit his reply over and over again? Again, I can not emphasize how happy I am that I did not enter a therapeutic relation with this man!

I would returned home only to use my inhaler more than prescribed. I just returned from my trip to Aruba. I brought the CD and my stones. I am happy I did. The place had a lot of smokers there. I was literally surrounded by them at the tiki bar to have lunch and to enjoy happy hour. I don't know if I was disgusted or felt sorry for them or most likely a combination of both watching them inhale that poison. I can say that I passed that test with flying colors. I would listen to the CDs that had been provided from the sessions. It was a reminder at night. It help me stay focused and prepared for the next day. If you are looking to quit smoking this is definitely the way to go. I tried everything else patches , gum, pills. This wor

I'm honestly not someone who usually writes reviews, but my experience with Marisa has been so…read moreimpactful that I felt like I had to share. I drive over an hour each way to see her and it's been so worth it. I originally went to see Marisa for extreme anxiety and ongoing sleep issues, after trying what felt like every modality out there: somatic exercises, journaling, therapy, BIT, meditation, breath-work...you name it. While many of those helped in their own ways, nothing truly moved the needle for me the way hypnoacupuncture with Marisa has. From my very first session, there was an obvious shift. Even the people around me noticed. After that first session, the tension in my shoulders decreased, and the only way I can describe it is that everything (physically & mentally) felt like it had been taken down a notch. Since working with her, my sleep has completely transformed. I went from having an extremely hard time falling asleep and waking up almost every hour, to now pretty much sleeping through the night. If I do wake up, I can fall back asleep easily, and I'm even dreaming a lot which I take as a sign I'm finally getting deep, restful sleep. I've seen such drastic improvements that I genuinely feel like I have a new baseline. I feel so much more in control of my anxiety now and honestly like a completely different person than I was just a few months ago. It's been truly life changing. I honestly wish I could see her weekly. The closest way I can describe how you feel leaving a session is like you just had a massage; you're so relaxed, grounded, and at ease. Marisa has truly touched my life. She is genuinely an angel. She listens, she cares deeply, and she is incredibly dedicated to her clients. If she doesn't have an answer right away, she always follows up, whether by email or the next time you see her, which says so much about the level of thought and attention she gives. I don't feel comfortable around many people, but there's something about her energy that is so light and reassuring. She creates such a safe, welcoming environment, and it makes all the difference. I'm so grateful to have found her and truly can't recommend her enough.

He is a true yogi in the sense that although his classes are advanced, he also teaches his students to do their best to be aware of the manifestations of their ego, and how said ego can greatly interfere with one's practice.

He also teaches them how to live in and appreciate the present moment, which leads to a much more fulfilling practice for me and the countless other students in his class.

We went to his office and went over a questionnaire I filled out and we just chatted. He shared wonderful stories with me and just made me feel so comfortable. The session probably lasted about an hour and 45 minutes. I left there with this huge sense of I could achieve anything. I'm typically more of a pessimist but Larry made me a believer. It's been 2 weeks and I've made the easiest decisions in my life which were probably the hardest before seeing Larry to eat healthy, turn down cookies, candy, sweets and junk food where that would be my go to all the time. I'm such an emotional eater and this past week of my life has been an extremely emotional week for me and I have not cheated once. There is just something in me that just keeps saying it's not worth it and almost a sense of disgust towards the sweets when I think of them. I'm so happy I took a leap of faith and went to Larry!
