manjit devgun’s hypnosis meditation classes are especially popular among executives with specific objectives. (She has clients at Google, Chanel, Gates Ventures, and Squarespac­e.) During the class, Devgun uses hypnosis techniques— repetition, breathwork, music—to lull her students into a state of semiawaren­ess, then she helps them figure out what is blocking their goals. (Many of them are looking to access peak performanc­e, unblock creativity, or “manifest abundance.”) One client, a partner at a private-equity firm who asked to remain anonymous, has been doing private sessions with her once every two weeks for over two years. She says that even as an active participan­t, you almost don’t realize you’ve been hypnotized until you’re out of it. Another incentive for busy clients: Devgun also offers meditation­s you can play anywhere. “It’s a music audio file that you can keep in your email and play back as many times as you want to,” the private-equity partner says. “If I’m traveling and I’m feeling anxious about a meeting or trying to work through a solution to something that’s causing me stress or I can’t fall asleep, I turn to it.” (From $18 at HealHaus.)
