About
Lata Ramesh (MBA, CCHT, CMHT)
I am a certified clinical and medical hypnotherapist and a certified STILL method anxiety coach. I help people overcome life challenges and create the life they want. I have also received training in areas like NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), Erichsonian Hypnotherapy, and GEMT (Guided Empathy Meridian Tapping). I have received training in energy healing modalities like Reiki and Pranic healing and also in Bach Flower remedies. I do believe in integrative healing and, through my sessions, clients benefit from my skills in multiple healing modalities.
My Background
I grew up in India in a loving and nurturing family environment. I have been blessed to be introduced to a spiritual way of living very early in life. Initially a stay-at-home mom for many years I invested all my attention and time in parenting my children and also developing a deeper spiritual relationship with myself.
I feel immensely grateful for the loving support of my two amazing daughters and an encouraging husband. All these rich gifts from the universe provided me with a strong foundation to pursue the passion I have had for a long time: to help people move towards a state of well-being and reach their highest potential. My passion to help parents in their parenting journey inspired me to also get trained as a Positive Discipline Parent Educator.
It has been my passion to share my experience and my learnings with the larger community so that others also benefit the way I have. As part of fulfilling that goal, I took the training to become a licensed Heal Your Life® teacher and workshop leader at San Diego, California, in November, 2019 and have now been leading Heal Your Life workshops regularly. I consider myself a work-in-progress, constantly endeavoring to move beyond judgement and to recognize the innate goodness within each and everyone. As a hypno-healer, a coach, and a workshop leader, I bring in all of these learnings into my sessions and workshops. More importantly, I consistently make an effort to create and hold a space of compassion, non-judgement, and trust for all my clients. In parallel, I help them question their negative beliefs and habits, while gently helping them steer themselves towards their goals. I am forever grateful to my Spiritual Guru, my parents, my family and siblings who constantly guide me, empower and inspire me in continuing to reach my own goals.

My Philosophy
My Mission
My mission in life is to empower people and help them connect with their own resources within them. Too many of us live life thinking that ‘I'm incapable’, ‘I am not good enough’, ‘I can’t do this’. All these are negative beliefs that are floating in our subconscious mind and we think they are true. They are not!
You might ask, ‘How do I not believe those thoughts?. In the midst of challenges, I really feel incapable. How do I know that it is not true?’
Just contemplate on this: We all have an innate intelligence within us which regulates and coordinates all bodily functions and maintains the body's balance and harmony. We are not consciously remembering to beat our heart or digest our food. It happens automatically, without any effort from us. That perfect intelligence which knows what needs to be done to keep us alive and in vibrant physical and mental health is within all of us.
If this intelligence can guide our bodily systems to function at an optimum level, this intelligence, this life force has the ability to manoeuvr us through life’s challenges, help us reach our true potential.
However, when faced with struggles and challenges, we do not believe that we are powerful. When faced with severe anxieties or crippling situations, many of us assume that we are helpless, that we have to go through suffering.
No, we do not have to suffer. We can use the extremely powerful subconscious and superconscious to empower us, to guide us and steer us out of those challenges.
Is this even possible, you may wonder? Is it possible that we can do something and help ourselves rise beyond suffering. You may think, ‘Maybe Lata hasn’t gone through real traumas! Maybe she hasn’t had the debilitating life situations I am having!’
Well, I can assure you that I have gone through quite a lot of challenges- traumas, death, health and family challenges, to name a few. And, every time a challenge hits me, I struggle too. I become anxious, I feel incapable and for a while I am lost.
However, because of my training and my rich spiritual heritage, I find myself making efforts to connect with my inner resources. This may take some time depending on the kind of trauma or challenge that I face. But eventually, I do connect to my source of strength and wisdom within me. And, this is what I want to teach each one of you too.
Through sessions in the ‘The Healing Gym’, I help people connect to their innate strength and resources within them. If your subconscious can create so many worries, it can also create pathways out of those worries.
However, this process takes some time. Just like you cannot go to a gym and lift the heaviest weights in a day, just like you need training to strengthen your muscles, we all need training to connect to our inner resources. That’s the kind of training I give in my classes and in my sessions.
An analogy: The man and the mountain
Here is an analogy to explain what I mean by overcoming suffering using the powers of our own subconscious and superconscious mind.
In the image on right side, you see the man running away from a huge mountain of problems. The man feels small, helpless, overwhelmed and feels lost in the face of insurmountable problems. He thinks he cannot handle this and that life is being bad to him. He feels like a victim of his circumstances and doesn’t feel he has the ability to change anything.


In this 2nd image, on left, you notice a difference. The man has grown bigger, The mountain is still there, still the same, but the man is bigger, more empowered and feels he has more resources to tackle the problem. He feels capable and empowered. He knows that the problem or situation may still be there, but he is now a bigger person, more resourceful, more skilled, with a stronger belief in his own capabilities. No longer does he feel helpless or overwhelmed. He is no longer a victim. Rather he is a victor.
The Key is within You !
I always assume that if the Universe has given you a lock (in the form of your problems), it has also given you a key (to those problems) that lies within you. There is no lock without a key. You have the answer to all your life’s problems. In fact you are the answer!.
Here is an excerpt from an article on ‘Lock & Key’……You may ask, I have been searching for the key, but I haven't found the key that will unlock this problem. The question is, are we looking at the right place for the key? Are we looking outside into the world or are we looking inside, within ourselves? The more we practice looking within, we can find the key to any of the locks in our life…. To read the entire article, go here.
Here are some of my core values that I bring to my work. This will give you a deeper understanding of my passion and commitment to the work I do.
To Summarize...
Overall, my approach to my client sessions and classes is empowerment. I empower using my core principle of spirituality. I also empower using science based tools of hypnosis, reprogramming the subconscious mind and practical common sense based coaching methods. I offer my services flavored with my core values of authentic intentions and a genuine concern for your wellbeing.
Most of all, I know and firmly believe that you are not alone. Your innate intelligence, your higher wisdom within you, watches over you and will help you hold your hand, arise and face any challenge that comes to you. I am merely the facilitator and guide helping you connect to your own higher wisdom.
