> Dear All,
>    As many of you know, Merry and I recently launched Kairos Health & 
> Wellness Center, providing hypnotherapy, coaching, counseling, and 
> self-help workshops. On Friday, January 4, we hosted an open house to 
> formally kick-off our business. It was a pleasant surprise when a reporter 
> for the Tampa Tribune showed up to the event and interviewed Merry and me, 
> as well as a few of the guests. Below is the article that appears in 
> today's Tampa tribune. For those of you who can and like to see photos, 
> the actual online story can be found at

> Couple opens hypnosis center in Brandon . Merry Schoch and Marion Gwizdala 
> used the Greek word "kairos" as the name for their coaching, counseling 
> and hypnosis center because it means "the right time. For the "power 
> couple," the right time is the present, when individuals can make positive 
> change. The couple, married four years, hosted a grand opening reception 
> Jan. 4 for Kairos Health & Wellness Center, 911 S. Parsons Ave., Suite K. 
> The two will work separately with clients as well as team up for classes 
> based on "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" for adults, teens 
> and families and prosperity preacher Joel Osteen's "Living Your Best Life 
> Now. It's using positive spiritual verses to change," said Schoch, who met 
> her blind, hypnotherapist husband at a guide-dog training class. God wants 
> great things for us. He is not punishing us when bad things happen. 
> Schoch, a registered social worker intern with some sight limitations, 
> counsels individuals and families while Gwizdala uses hypnosis to help 
> people quit smoking or achieve other goals. She said the biggest challenge 
> for parents is getting on the same page with their spouse and being 
> consistent. She helps restore communication breakdowns in the family. You 
> can't let your child run the show," she said. Sometimes you have to do 
> tough love. There is also consistency and talking with dignity and 
> respect. I'm very strength-based - let's focus on the positive. Gwizdala 
> said people often use the new year as an excuse to change their lives, but 
> they can change anytime. He said about 80 percent of his hypnosis clients 
> want help to quit smoking. I direct people to look at the present and 
> future rather than the past," he said. A lot of people have been told 
> nicotine is the problem, but the problem is the habit. Most of the smoking 
> behavior is urges. It's the thought, the memory. The Rev. Virginia Walsch, 
> the founding minister of Unity North Tampa Church, said Gwizdala has 
> helped several members of her congregation break longtime habits through 
> hypnosis. Gwizdala also serves as the music director at the church. He has 
> a very positive attitude," Walsch said. He is always upbeat. We think very 
> highly of him. He has been an inspiration because of his sight 
> limitations. A lot of people don't know he is blind because he handles 
> himself so well. Sue Spensberger, a member of Unity North Tampa Church, 
> said Gwizdala engages the entire congregation through music. He's the life 
> of the party," said Spensberger, who uses the power of positive thinking 
> in her own life. He's a wonderful guy. Jessica Price of Valrico, a 
> licensed clinical social worker, works in a neighboring office space at 
> the Brandon Business Center. They are a nice addition," said Price, who 
> attended the reception. I work with kids and families. Merry has been able 
> to come in and work with me on a case with a 3-year-old. She brings her 
> dog, Kappy, a black Labrador retriever. They are just wonderful. For more 
> information on Kairos Health & Wellness Center, call (813) 598-7161.
