Hypnosis:
A tool through
which you can Harness the Power of Your Subconscious Mind
to create
any changes you want to make in the way you think/feel/behave.
People often expect to be totally 'out of it' or unconscious
when they're in hypnosis. They often expect not to be aware
of anything. That dramatic interpretation is great for movies!
The hypnotic state is in fact a completely natural state which
we experience every day.
The hypnotic state is like that drowsy state we're in just
before waking up, or just before we fall asleep, i.e. when
we're neither awake nor asleep.
Hypnosis is a state
of mind that allows access to your subconscious mind. It can unlock
the super concentrated power of your mind. It is a state of physical
and mental relaxation which allows the subconscious mind to be
more open to suggestions.
This deeply relaxed
state (often referred to as a trance) is a state of heightened
receptivity to positive suggestions. It is similar to the meditative
state.
Hypnosis is an effective tool for transformation by directing
the subconscious mind to create the reality you desire - that
could refer to how we think, feel or behave in certain situations
or with certain people. The subconscious mind is like a computer
that can be programmed, or re-programmed, to change habits and
attitudes to change your life. Sometimes those old software programs
we're running in our minds isn't helping us anymore and it's time
to uninstall and reinstall!
No amount of will power
exerted by the conscious mind can override the subconscious mind
for an extended period of time. Your subconscious mind is always
stronger than your conscious 'willpower'!
The mind affects all
functions of the body. This is one of the key reasons hypnosis
works so well in pain management or healing faster after an injury
or surgery. Go to the 'Get rid
of pain' page and see a client testimonial for expedited healing
after a mastectomy.(It's in the column on the left.)
It's important to realise that you are always in control. Your
hypnotherapist is merely a guide. A person who does not want to
be hypnotised cannot be hypnotised. Rest assured that under hypnosis,
no-one can be induced to do or say anything which violates personal
standards of behaviour or integrity. In essence, all hypnosis
is self hypnosis.
Hypnosis has a great many applications, including weight
control. In fact, the University of Connecticut scientists
analysed existing weight loss studies and found test subjects
using hypnotherapy techniques lost 60% more weight than those
using other strategies.
During your hypnosis session you will be assisted and guided into
a state of relaxation. Prior to this, clients are active participants
in the process by helping to design the programming script (i.e.
what the hypnotist will say) that would be most acceptable and
beneficial to the clients' situation. Sessions are specific to
what you personally want to think, feel, be or do in certain environments.
Through creative metaphors and positive suggestions, the subconscious
mind is directed to modify behaviour and attitudes for the better.
You may be aware of what is being said to you as it's been said,
though you may not consciously remember it all afterwards. Alternatively,
you may drift off and be totally unaware of what's being said.
Either way, changes will take place.
