“Enjoyed the course and Celeste is an great teacher!”

Cecily Bradbury, B.A.A.S.

“The structure of the process of 5 PATH® is the most crucial thing I learned. The practice of inductions, deepeners, testing etc was encouraging. 7th Path® is phenomenal. I thought it bunk at first, but whenI saw it’s effect on the class, wow.”

John Phillps

"I really appreciate Celeste’s experience, knowledge, passion, openness and investment in us as trainees. I appreciate her clarification in class, openness to answering all of our questions, providing extra information to work with specific clients, sharing in class by a client and fellow hypnotist. She is inspiring for us to overcome our fears due to inexpereience and to get out there and help people. Her skill especially with pase 3 and 3 of 5PATH® as well as 7TJ Path® show what dept of work is needed and possible for lasting life changes. THANK YOU! Thanks also to Christopher for ALL his help!"

David Erickson, M.M.F.T.

"Celeste, your approach and delivery are a perfect compliment to this information. Your joy and enthusiasm are an asset to all those around you. I am very happy I cam to you. I know this is only the beginning of our relationship. You have been an excellent teacher and in the near future, I hope a friend. Thanks and blessings and Merry Christmas."

Carl McGowan

"Thank you, Celeste. This has been an amazing experience. There is so much material covered, so much information shared and so much support offered. And you did it all in an understandable and often entertaining way. I am excited and feel ready to begin my new career and know I will be grateful for help in the near future."

Ginger Mensik, L.M. T., R. M.

"Being in the “helping profession”, this is right down my alley, working in areas of the brain I’ve been fascinated with for years. So much that this can be utilized to help others achieve happiness in life! Via a variety of pathways. Always working for someone else is a major handicap for me in starting my hyp[nosis career, but I have optimism and am excited! You have been so conscientious in giving us the information we need to get started and keep going. The supports you have provided for us are awesome."

Teresa L. Heitschmidt, B.S.N., R.N.

"I feel this was extremely helpful information and the teacher was remarkable. She let us know that she was human. The successes and the few failures, the ups and downs she has remained humble and human."

Dr. Larry Kelley, C.H.

"Celeste has a great enthusiasm for helping people both as client and as student and fellow hypnotists. She made me feel like helping people to a great degree with this knowledge was possible. I took this course mainly to know hypnosis, but now I am eager to help others. Thanks Celeste."

“This course was far more intense and involved than I expected.  However, that is exactly the kind of class that I appreciate and respect.  When going to Texas to take the class I was thinking…..I hope it’s worth the money.  Well, it wasn’t….it was worth much, much more, it was worth it’s weight in GOLD.   Knowledge was great, Class was great, Instructor was great.  Thank you so much.” 

Laura Lockhart. C.H.  

“Celeste was very professional and approachable.  I was amazed how much I learned so fast because she presented the lessons so well.  She made all the classes very enjoyable and she went the extra mile to make sure we ALL understood the complete practice of Hypnosis.  I felt blessed to have signed up under her instruction.  I was extremely, extremely pleased with everything she taught.” 

Faye Adkins, C.H.

“This course was more than I expected.  It was very informative with plenty of real life applications.   

Celeste was very knowledgeable about 5PATH ®, 7th Path ® and their applications.  She was professional and personable.  As an experienced and working hypnotist, she was able to answer all questions with added insight.  I highly recommend anyone considering learning hypnotism to take this training.” 

M.A., C.H.

“The class was well organized, informative, and kept everyone engaged.  Celeste encouraged participation and encouraged participants to share openly.  Her insights from her own practice help to make many of the concepts relevant and “real”.  As a Master Trainer in the corporate world with 25 years of experience with companies such as AT&T, Sprint, American Airlines, Delta Airlines, AT&T Technologies an many others, I can honestly say Celeste is a trainer’s trainer.  EXCELLENT JOB!!!! 

Mike Blair, C.H.  

“The course is a great experience and “Celeste”  (Instructor) is a very inspiring person.  Thank you for all! 

“Maria Lopez, C.H. 

“Celeste is utterly fantastic!  She is a great instructor, explains things well.  She makes sure you know the material.  The reason I feel there was a lot of divine intervention to lead me to this class is because I checked with 2 other people, and 1 referred me to her.  The other person, a local hypnotist does nothing like Celeste does because I went through a session with her (my only accomplishment was to feel relaxed), but I was willing to take her training just to be a hypnotist if I hadn’t found Celeste.  Thank you God! Thank you, Celeste, for being who you are.”  

Lejenne Belcher, B.S., Med, CRT, RCP, RRT, C.H.

“Celeste Hackett did a great job of teaching the 5-PATH and 7th Path hypnosis class.  She is very conscientious and assured her students she would be available to answer questions after we graduated.  She gave good examples of each phase.  I feel I am well prepared to start practicing 5-PATH and 7TH Path hypnosis.” 

Judy Prouty

Celeste shares her passion.  She is a wonderful person and teacher.   She is always willing to help with issues and/or concerns- from the class starting and once the 2 weeks have ended.  You are never alone once you have taken a class from Celeste.” 

Barbara Ardoin, B.S,.MEd, C.H.  

November 2009

“I was surprised with the material that was given.  Not only did we learn about hypnotism, but we learned to help ourselves by learning 7th Path Self Hypnosis.  The class was comprehensive, but I love how Celeste Hackett enthusiastically taught and guided us throughout the class.  Her love of hypnosis and teaching radiates since she loves what she does and is very passionate about it.  I believe the class is apt to make great hypnotists since it taught us advanced techniques and most of all how to help others in a safe and ethical manner.” 

Wilfredo A. Rajuro Jr., C.H.

“It was a very intense course.  The instructor is very good and she does a very good job keeping us engaged into the material.  I learned a lot.  She prepared us to go out and practice.” 

Kristina Cooke, B.S., C.H. 

“The material provided and presented in this class was wonderful.  There is so much.  In addition, the tools given to us are amazing and very powerful.  Celeste is very knowledgeable in the subject content.  She is always able to answer any questions.  I feel I have been given the tools to be successful in a hypnosis practice.” 

Sarah Avignone 

“The Hypnosis Mastery Level I and the Advanced Level II were excellent courses.  Learning the basic Hypnosis history, theory, and initial inductions over the first two days was likely similar to what others may teach.  Then things ramped up.  We began learning and practicing structured procedures and methods that many professionals spend their entire career trying to grasp.  By the end of the course I understood and had practiced to the point I was able to take all of the concepts and methods we were taught and begin effectively using them immediately.  Without a doubt, I have a greater knowledge and ability to use Hypnosis effectively than most who have practiced for years and years. 

The 7th Path Self-Hypnosis was so much more detailed, far reaching and powerful than anything I have read or learned about over the many years I have been interested in self hypnosis.  With the simple yet structured methods I learned and practiced in the class, I was able to make a lot of progress in several areas I personally needed to improve on, by the end of the class.  I continue to help myself every day.  This is a very powerful tool I will be able to use for the rest of my life.   

Celeste’s teaching and handling of the class was excellent.  Every day something to look forward to and she kept the attention of each person throughout the entire two weeks.  She was always smiling and laughing while staying on point and causing each of us to want to participate.  Celeste’s enthusiasm for teaching Hypnosis and her knowledge and experience in the field combined to make a great learning environment.   

I would encourage anyone considering education relating to Hypnosis to talk to Celeste about this course.” 

Steven Holtsclaw 

“The course was well planned both in materials, presentation and lab work.  Celeste was enthusiastic about what she does as a practicing hypnotist and her confidence in the work made the course especially dynamic.  The 5- PATH work seems comprehensive in it’s approach to helping people with true resolution of issues.  The structure makes it easy to keep learning with enough direction to do this in a practice.” 

-Louise Grogan, LMT, C.H. 

June 2009

“It was nice to find a comprehensive training program.  I like the fact that this program is holistic as my ultimate goal is to empower people to take charge of their lives and health.  7th Path®  is a great take-away to teach people apart from the 5-PATH®  process or with 5-PATH if a person chooses that rout.  Celeste did a great job!  I would make one suggestion – for a larger room for the next training.”

Kathleen Sanchez , B.S., O.T.
Occupational Therapist

“This course contained much more information than expected.  I am grateful for the training on emotions and how they work in your mind and body.  I had never had education on them and didn’t know how to use them or rationalize them.  Celeste Hackett is a superb teacher, she was there every step with handouts and took the time to answer any and all questions that we posed and often had the answer before we asked.  I am proud to be a 5-PATH® family member.”

Billy Kelley LMT
Massage Therapist

“This course was excellent, very transformational.  Manuals were excellent; course outline flowed nicely structured perfectly to obtain the education I was seeking.  Celeste was an outstanding teacher, open to questions during class and after.  Her knowledge of the materials and her experience made her a perfect teacher.  The students in the class were amazing.  I am truly blessed to have found this course and I look forward to starting my practice.

Jack Gregory
School Teacher/Counselor

“This course was intense, structured and informative.  It was presented in a very professional and competent manner.  The curriculum was grueling, but the material was so informing and exciting.  There was never a dull moment.  For anyone interested in becoming a certified hypnotist, Celeste provides the experience and professionalism needed for this level of training.  Thanks Celeste for your caring heart and exciting energy.”

Mary-Virginia Mach
Massage Therapist

“The material was presented in a professional manner, and at the same time, I enjoyed Celeste’s sense of humor and playfulness.  She was extremely patient, answering all our questions and made sure we understood the material.  I feel well prepared to get started with clients and do hypnosis sessions.  THANK YOU CELESTE!!!”

“Celeste has a unique talent as a teacher in that she is intuitive to the needs of the students.  Her teaching style reflects this intuition.  The subject matter was challenging at times due to the sheer volume – but she made it so interesting that I found myself hanging on her words.  I am grateful to have been able to be a part of this class and to have such a great teacher.  I look forward to practicing what I have learned.”

Denese Boyd, R.N.
Registered Nurse

“I found the class well structured and very informative.  Celeste did a wonderful job and demonstrated great insight on the subject.  I would strongly recommend this course to anyone that is serious about this subject.  Thank you.”

Martin Gonzalez

“This training provided an excellent opportunity to both learn and practice the 5-PATH®
Process.  The teaching materials were in depth and easy to understand especially with Celeste’s guidance and personal stories.  Learning 7th Path® allowed for a greater level of absorption and allowed me to receive the necessary information to fully appreciate what 5-PATH can do for me and others.  Learning 5-PATH ® AND 7TH Path® with Celeste exceeded my expectations and gave me a wonderful sense of accomplishment.  Thank you – Thank you – Thank you.”

Terri Kirkman, M. S. Kinesiology, M. Ed

“Celeste Hackett is a qualified and enthusiastic, warm teacher who inspired me during the course.  You would be very proud if you audited her course.  She feels the energy of the people she works on as well as those in the class.  Her class was well-structured and fun.  She inspired confidence in me to be able to do this work. 

Another thing I would like to mention about Celeste is her professionalism in her approach to the course and teaching it and her appearance and attire.  She did not look like someone at a psychic fair!

Celeste is a gift to the world and this course and her teaching will help spread healing that this world is on the verge of really embracing. 

I’d like to also express my appreciation of the videos provided to watch during the class and all the materials available to purchase as well as the on-line support. If a practice book ever comes out I’d like to know!  Gratitude and Kudos!”
