Hello and welcome to the 2026 Conference!

Dear Friends and Fellow Travelers,

It is a true pleasure to welcome you to the 31st annual NATH Conference! This year's theme, "Awakening the Inner Light," reminds us that transformation begins within and radiates outward—personally, professionally, and throughout the world! As we gather once again, we celebrate not only our commitment to excellence in hypnosis and holistic healing, but also our shared desire to inspire hope, healing, and positive change.

We are honored to welcome Dennis Lawson as our keynote speaker, and we are excited to present one of our most diverse conference lineups yet. This year, we are welcoming presenters from across the United States and internationally, bringing a wealth of knowledge, experience, and fresh perspectives to our attendees.

For the first time ever, we are opening portions of the conference and our vendor area to the public! This exciting opportunity allows our attendees to introduce their products, services, books, and businesses to an even broader audience while showcasing the incredible work taking place within our profession.

We listened to your feedback! We have added 15 minute breaks after every presentation, and we will also serve a buffet lunch during our panel discussion!

Our host hotel, the Holiday Inn North Beach, is beautifully renovated and located directly on the famous Virginia Beach Boardwalk, offering the perfect setting for learning, networking, and relaxation. We've also secured an exceptional room rate of just $120 per night, making it easy to enjoy everything the conference has to offer.

In addition to outstanding educational presentations, we've planned evening activities every night, creating plenty of opportunities to connect with old friends, make new ones, and enjoy the wonderful fellowship that makes NATH conferences so memorable.

On behalf of our Board of Advisors, our Conference Committee, presenters, volunteers, and staff, thank you for being part of the NATH family. Whether this is your first conference or your 31st, we look forward to welcoming you to an unforgettable weekend of education, inspiration, laughter, friendship, and awakening the light that lives within us all.

1 Day Workshop Thu, Nov 12th, 9 AM to 6 PM One-Day Workshop Soul Powered Hypnosis- Beyond Past-Life Regression w/Peter Woodbury, MSW

Developed over years of conducting past-life regressions, Peter created this technique after realizing his clients were moving past ordinary regressions and the Akashic Records. Instead, they were tapping into deep dimensions of healing, knowledge, and wisdom far beyond the conscious mind. By shifting his transition guidance to, "Behind this door is what would be most helpful for you," clients then began accessing realms that could only be called dimensions of the soul.

Join Peter for this workshop, featuring a live demonstration, a Q&A session, and an in-depth exploration of the technique's theory and practice.

Fri Nov 13th, 2 PM-6 PM, 4-hour workshop Beyond Burnout: Restoring the Inner Healer w/ Christi George , CHt

Beyond burnout, there is a path back to balance. As healers, many of us are caring for others in every area of life, supporting clients, raising families, and often helping aging parents as well. Over time, this level of giving can lead to exhaustion and a quiet loss of connection to ourselves. In this workshop, we will explore the patterns that contribute to burnout and learn practical ways to restore balance and create sustainable boundaries. You will leave with tools to support your energy, reconnect with yourself, and continue your work from a place of clarity and strength.

Christi George, CHt, is a certified hypnotherapist, past-life regressionist, meditation teacher, and metaphysical educator with more than 30 years of experience. She is the author of DreamCraft: Using the Power of Your Subconscious Mind to Create the Life You Want and is writing a book on burnout and energetic boundaries for healers. Christi teaches workshops on dream work, subconscious development, and intuitive practices, and has organized large metaphysical events bringing together practitioners and seekers nationwide.

Mon Nov 16th, 9 AM to 6 PM The Warehouse of Emotions: Integrating Hypnosis and Positive Psychology for Deep Transformation with Ingibjorg Bernhoft

This training introduces the “Warehouse of Emotions” framework, a structured approach to working with emotional states in hypnotherapy.

Clients often focus on what they do not want, while struggling to identify what they do want. Using a simple metaphor—similar to creating a shopping list based on what we intend to choose—this approach helps shift attention toward intentional emotional selection.

By integrating hypnosis and positive psychology, participants learn practical methods for guiding clients toward clarity and conscious choice, while also incorporating tools such as the VIA Character Strengths Survey.

Ingibjorg Bernhoft is an international hypnotherapy trainer, speaker, and author, specializing in transformational work through hypnosis and positive psychology. She is the founder of the “Warehouse of Emotions” framework, created to shift clients from problem-focused thinking to intentional emotional choice.

She has presented at IMDHA and IACT and trains professionals in advanced approaches, incorporating tools such as the VIA Character Strengths Survey.
