The gut and brain are in constant dialogue but when the dialogue is disrupted, changes occur in how we feel and how information from the digestive tract is perceived and interpreted. Gut-brain disturbances show up in the body as pain, visceral hypersensitivity (increased nerve sensitivity), motility disturbances, hypervigilance, and changes in the gut microbiota and immune system functioning.

Gut-directed hypnotherapy (GDH) is an evidence-based form of psychotherapy that targets the miscommunication between the gut and brain. GDH has shown promising and lasting results in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), and refractory GERD.

The most important factor in the success of hypnosis is that you are open to it and motivated. It is also helpful to have a good imagination. Like any new skill, it takes practice.

If you are interested in learning more about Gut-Directed Hypnotherapy as a form of Mind-Body intervention that can be used as a tool to improve the conversation between the gut and brain, join us for a discussion at Beloved Yoga on November 10th from 7-8 pm.





Christina Unger

Christina began her journey into the world of yoga over 15 years ago and although she expected it to impact her external body, she never realized how it would put her in touch with her heart and spirit. She believes that  the philosophy of yoga was a part of her all along.


Yoga balances the analytic and artistic sides of Christina. She worked as a Nurse Practitioner in Gastroenterology and Liver Diseases for 13 years,  and her love for science is balanced by her passion for nature, art, and dance. Her yoga practice is inspired by her training in ballet and the multiple styles of yoga she has studied over the years, as well as her experiences as a Nurse Practitioner. She also finds inspiration for her classes by being outside in nature. 


Her wish is to use her experience and knowledge to guide students toward optimal wellness through gaining awareness of body, mind, and spirit.


When not at yoga, Christina gravitates to the water  with her love, Christopher, where she finds peace and a sense of wonder. She also enjoys being outside on her bike or playing tennis. She loves spending time with her family.


Over the years she has been inspired and taught by many  talented teachers. She completed her 200 hour training at Easton Yoga with Alicia Rambo Wozniak.  She has attended workshops with Sean Johnson,  Max Strom, Jamie Elmer, Elena Bower, Jason Crandall,  Sean Corne, Jurian Hughes, Natasha Rizoupoulis, and David Swenson. She extends gratitude to all her teachers.
