Finding Purpose Through Quantum Hypnosis
What if the emptiness you keep trying to outrun is actually a compass pointing home? That question sits at the center of our conversation with Naomi Shu, a Level 2 Quantum Healing Hypnotherapist who helps people access the theta brainwave state to uncover identity, purpose, and peace. Naomi opens up about her leap from a vice president role in New York City commercial real estate to a calling focused on healing, alignment, and conscious living.
We explore what quantum healing hypnosis really is and what it is not. Naomi dismantles common myths about mind control and sleep, explaining how clients remain aware while dropping into a relaxed state where the subconscious is easier to work with. From easing anxiety and depression to releasing trauma and old beliefs, the process gives people practical insights that translate into better choices, healthier boundaries, and a deeper sense of meaning. She also describes how some clients experience access to a personal record of patterns and possibilities, offering context for why certain life themes keep repeating.
Naomi’s story resonates with high achievers who have done everything “right” yet feel restless or numb. She reflects on how success can become a substitute for fulfillment and why buying more—whether properties or accolades—never satisfies the hunger for purpose. Instead of pushing harder, she invites us to listen inward, realign with who we truly are, and let actions follow that truth. If you have felt stuck, lost, or out of sync with your life, this is an honest, grounded guide to returning to yourself.

The Good Neighbor Podcast, the place where local businesses and neighbors come together. Here's your host, Garfield Bowen.
SPEAKER_02:Welcome to the Good Neighbor Podcast Live. Are you in need of a hypnotherapist? Well, one may be closer than you think. Today I have the pleasure of introducing your good neighbor, Naomi Shu, with Healing and Retreats. Naomi, how are you doing today?
SPEAKER_01:Good. Very good. Thank you for inviting me.
SPEAKER_02:Listen, we're excited to learn all about you and your practice. Tell us about your company.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, it's um, you know, I wouldn't call it a company, it's just uh what I do. Um the uh uh the website is called uh healingandretreats.com. And I'm uh level two quantum healing hypnotherapist. So I uh do this type of hypnosis to help people to tap into their deep awareness for them to find out who they are and where they're from in the universe and what their life purpose is. And also I help people with mental challenges um of depressions, anxiety, trauma, blockage, and for them to really know by by right using the hypnotherapy to let them know who they are so they can really um adjust their negative beliefs in their subconscious and for them to be in the alignment of who they are.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, our listeners, our listeners here is I'm sure right now we're thinking like, how did you get into this?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, this is uh something that is very uh different from what I used to do. Uh I was um selling commercial real estate in New York City before this, uh in the nation's largest commercial real estate firm. And I was uh um promoted as a vice president. So I never thought I will do anything else. Um so 2020, when COVID happened, um I think I uh that was my awakening, uh spiritual awakening. Um so I I did take the quantum healing hypnosis course, and so I started practicing, and very quickly I um realized I can no longer be in commercial real estate business. So I switched and I'm very glad I did so because um I'm helping people who need help. Um I used to help investors to you know purchase those investment properties, but they don't need to buy more properties because they're the reason they're doing so is there's something is missing inside of them, but they did not realize that. So, right by buying more investment properties, they think will fulfill that emptiness, but that will never happen. So um I'm um uh how to say, because what I do, so I realize this is my life purpose. Um, I can say I came to Earth at this time to do this, um to raise and expand human consciousness because that's the only way we can live with joy and at peace.
SPEAKER_02:What what are some of the myths and misconceptions of hypnotherapists?
SPEAKER_01:Say it one more time.
SPEAKER_02:What are some of the myths and misconceptions?
SPEAKER_01:Um, can you say in a different way?
SPEAKER_02:Um, what do people uh what are some of the wrong understandings that people have about hypnotherapists?
SPEAKER_01:Um, I'm not sure. I think most people think it's a very bizarre thing that um the hypnotist can control the person who's being hypnotized, uh, which is not true. Yes, to a certain degree. Um so it's not uh the person who's being hypnotized will um will pass out or go to sleep. Um the person will enter um theta brainwave, which is the hypnotic state. So this is the state after alpha state, which is a light trans, and before sleep state, which is delta state. So in this hypnotic state, I call it uh magical state because this is the state that you are fully connected with all that is so in a way, right? People say um there's an acashic record, right? People do this type of uh cache record reading, right? So when you're in hypnotic state, you are in that state. In your personal Akashic record, you can know all your past lives and your future lives and your parallel lives. So um, so this is what hypnosis is about.
SPEAKER_02:Well, I was just thinking, you know, um, you know, you know, in terms of who could uh best utilize your uh services, and have you ever thought about doing your own podcast?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, I would say everyone, because who doesn't want to know what right their life purpose is? We as the soul came to this planet for a reason. We did not come here just randomly. Um our soul chose, let's say, I chose to be me, I chose my parents, and I chose my life theme for a reason for the soul to learn, grow, and evolve, right? So hypnosis is such a simple way, right, for the person to get to that state, and so to remember everything about you. So, because I believe if we don't know right who we are and what our purpose is, then everything we do becomes irrelevant. See, when you're not serving your purpose, then the soul will not be happy, and when the soul is not happy, you cannot be happy, see, but sometimes we get we feel we're lost, right? And that's it, that's really the time people can try this.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, we're we're about out of time, but I want you to listen as leave our listeners with one thing. If it's one thing they should remember about healing and retreats, what would that one thing be?
SPEAKER_01:I hope you give yourself an opportunity, right, to find out so much more about who you are.
SPEAKER_02:Okay, and for our listeners here that uh want to know more, uh, what's the best way for them to uh contact you?
