Welcome

From Linda Thunberg

Dear Friends and Fellow Travelers,

It is a true pleasure to welcome you to the 31st Annual NATH Conference! This year’s theme, "Awakening the Inner Light," reminds us that transformation begins within and radiates outward—personally, professionally, and throughout the world! As we gather together once again, we celebrate not only our commitment to excellence in hypnosis and holistic healing, but also our shared desire to inspire hope, healing, and positive change.

We are honored to welcome Dennis Lawson as our keynote speaker, and we are excited to present one of our most diverse conference lineups yet. This year, we are welcoming presenters from across the United States and internationally, bringing a wealth of knowledge, experience, and fresh perspectives to our attendees.

For the first time ever, we are opening portions of the conference and our vendor area to the public! This exciting opportunity allows our attendees to introduce their products, services, books, and businesses to an even broader audience while showcasing the incredible work taking place within our profession.

We listened to your feedback! We have put in 15 minute breaks after every presentation, and also we will be serving a buffet lunch during our panel discussion!

Our host hotel, the Holiday Inn North Beach, is beautifully renovated and located directly on the famous Virginia Beach Boardwalk, offering the perfect setting for learning, networking, and relaxation. We’ve also secured an exceptional room rate of just $120 per night, making it easy to enjoy everything the conference has to offer.

In addition to outstanding educational presentations, we’ve planned evening activities every night, creating plenty of opportunities to connect with old friends, make new ones, and enjoy the wonderful fellowship that makes NATH conferences so memorable.

On behalf of our Board of Advisors, our conference committee, presenters, volunteers, and staff, thank you for being part of the NATH family. Whether this is your first conference or your thirty-first, we look forward to welcoming you to an unforgettable weekend of education, inspiration, laughter, friendship, and awakening the light that lives within us all.

With gratitude and anticipation,

Linda M. Thunberg
