Anxiety, stress and the daily grind are all the things that weigh most folks down, even on a beautiful tropical island.
So why not experience Hawaii in a different way through laughs and with no worries, said hypnotist and improviser Ron Soderstrom.
The Comedy Hypnosis Show “Welcome to Paradise” at the Lihue Parish Hall is Soderstrom’s solution and will “allow yourself to be in the moment,” he said. Doors open at 7 p.m. Saturday and the show starts at 7:30 p.m.
“I wanted to take people on a vacation on the mind as their tour guide,” Soderstrom said. “I am taking them to paradise. Bringing my guests onto stage and letting them have the vacation of their life.”
Hypnosis is a great to relieve tension and release stress all while laughing, he said.
“Hypnosis is an intense state of focus where all distractions are eliminated and you can simply be in the present moment free of stress and anxiety,” Soderstrom said.
And that’s when the fun starts.
The Comedy Hypnosis Show is a mix of life coaching and improvisational comedy. Soderstrom said improv teaches people how to live in the moment and to release the nervousness and tension, which can be liberating.
“When people come on the stage, I am able to help them to get focus,” he said. “Now the people who come out on stage, I never drag them on stage. You only want people who want to have fun. Now those people already have that in their mind that they want to enjoy themselves. Now it’s just a matter of getting past that little edge, that little bit of nervousness.”
Soderstrom said he’ll help guide audience members through skits.
It’s family event, one in which he acts as a tour guide the whole way, guiding them through their subconscious allowing them to enjoy the moment, not the past nor the future.
Before moving to Kauai, Soderstrom spent several years a professional skateboarder. He was pretty broken before he decided to heal himself through hypnosis and life coaching.
Now, he said he helps others through his wellness and performing coaching.
Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for children five and under.
