We sat down with Francesca Sipma, Founder and CEO of HypnoBreathwork® and Mastry. Francesca shares with us the origins of Mastry, her inspiration behind the concept, and her deep commitment to bringing this work into the world.
Welcome, Francesca! Please tell us about yourself and the origins of Mastry.
I’m a former New Yorker who spent most of my career in advertising and marketing. After a spiritual sabbatical and discovering breathwork at a retreat in Bali, I became fascinated by the subconscious mind and studying different modalities to heal suppressed emotions and create the life you want. Mastry is the outcome of my self exploration journey – an experience to create connection and life your purpose.
What was the inspiration behind the name “Mastry”?
The name Mastry is inspired by Robert Greene’s book Mastery. In his book, Greene states that you must unlock your deep passion and sculpt your mind and life in the pursuit of mastery. He goes on to say that masters have the confidence and resiliency that others lack and that, “The future belongs to those who can discipline their minds and learn more skills to combine them in creative ways.” That’s truly our goal at Mastry – to help people dissolve a block, layer or trigger and get into alignment with their highest self and purpose.
What is HypnoBreathwork®? What is it like to experience it?
HypnoBreathwork® is a cutting-edge method using breathwork to clear suppressed emotions, hypnosis to reprogram subconscious beliefs and visioning to fire new neural pathways for mental clarity and intuitive action. It’s an efficient 22-minute practice that combines the most transformative modalities I discovered around the world. Most people will experience intense physical sensations in the beginning but leave the session feeling extremely light and clear.
What are the most common misconceptions about HypnoBreathwork, and what would you like others to know about it?
A common misconception about HypnoBreathwork® is that it is similar to other forms of breathwork or comparable to meditation. Our key differentiator is that we combine breathwork, hypnosis, and visioning together which allows people to uncover blocks, reprogram subconscious beliefs, and start taking action from an intuitive place. By consistently doing this practice people are able to get into alignment and uncover their purpose. It’s said that people who have a sense of purpose have longer life expectancy and decreased risk of heart disease. Unlike other modalities that provide a surface level treatment for anxiety or depression, HypnoBreathwork® gets to the root of what’s blocking someone, helping them uncover their purpose and live a life of intention.
What is your hope in sharing this type of work with the world?
That there will be a ripple in consciousness across industries and more fulfilled people finding deeper meaning and living their purpose.
