Journal of Hypnotism, December 2005
Interview with Christine Follows, from the article “International Perspective” by Maurice Kershaw, FNGH

“I did go to the NGH Solid Gold Weekend in February this year, but this is my first real NGH convention and believe me, I am astounded with the organization, the workshops and the number of people attending.”

Christine Follows directs Chrysalis Therapies in Ottawa, Canada, and is certified both as a hypnotist and a Bowen practitioner. “My father introduced me to metaphysical matters,” she replied to my question about how she became interested in this field.

She continued, “I have been involved with past life regressions, have taken intensive training in hypnosis, and now, as a full-time therapist, I am at last involved with the work I was meant to be doing."

"My training and certification in Bowen therapies also fits right in with the scheme of things concerning the essential mind-body connection. Bowen is not massage, but it involves gentle moves on groups of muscles, enabling the body to receive messages from the brain. I am enjoying my work tremendously, and although I am not a marketing person, my partner is, so all is working out very well.

Between five children ranging in age from 11 to 28, this 51-year-young therapist finds time to garden (“my therapy”), read, play piano (“my passion”), train in palliative care, and spread her winning smile to those around her. I suspect that the Guild and her community have a rising star in their midst. ”
