About Paul Hastings of Real Smart Hypnosis
As you are considering me as your therapist to help your to remove some emotional problem that you may be having in your life, or are considering me as a trainer to teach you how to get the results that you want, you may want to know that I have the necessary skills and experience in life to do the job.
This page is to give you some background information about my life, interests and experience.
This approach is not common with most hypnotists, however I feel that you like me would want some idea as to whom you will be working with, so that you know I can get you what you desire.
Unlike most therapists out there I do have a wide range of life skills and experiences, I have lived, been married, raised children, been divorced, been poor, comfortable, and very wealthy. Employed, self employed and been trapped in jobs for awhile that I did not enjoy.
I have had to use my skills in hypnosis and NLP in the real world and in real life. Not just in the training room.
I have also been doing this since 1991 and I am still in a successful private practice, so unlike most I will still be here in 10 years. I often get clients who want to return to a hypnotist they saw 4 years ago, but they are no longer in business.
My interest in our minds and hypnosis started at an early age. From the age of eight I started to read and study mind systems and around this time started to hypnotise friends at school. Therefore, it would be true to say I have been hypnotising people since then.
I qualified as a Hypnotherapist and Psychotherapist in 1991 with Neil French and The International Association of Hypnoanalysis (IAH) and started my private practice in this year. The same year I was fortunate enough to be taken under the wing of Internationally acclaimed hypno therapist Duncan McColl of Pilgrim Tapes. Who has continued to teach and guide me.
I have developed a reputation for assisting other hypnotherapists and working with the more unusually and difficult cases we experience.
I continue to practice and develop my hypnotic skills on a daily basis.
In 1997 I became a Neuro Linguistic Programmer and later became a Certified Trainer for Dr Richard Bandler.

Martial Arts
This is to give you some idea as to my martial arts history.
The photograph below was taken when I was about 4 years old.
My father (5th Dan judo)would take me to his club and I would watch and play, and of course as this was going on my subconscious was learning. I still enjoy practicing Hapkido to this day.
I started to teach martial arts in 1974 while still at school.
My brother David and I have been teaching Hapkido in the Warwickshire area since 1982.
We have taught Hapkido to thousands of students, and have conducted courses for children, disabled people and security personal (CQB)i Warwickshire. Moreover, we both still practice.
Yoga
Yoga is another passion practiced from an early age. My grandfather learnt yoga while serving in India. The mental side of yoga, Raga Yoga really caught my attention and from an early age, I have practiced Raja yoga.
NLP is a more advanced and effective method of personal neurological control.
I still practices hatha yoga and have studied the works of Moshe Feldenkrais and acupuncture.
I am also a student of the Silva methods of mind development and Huna.
