About Hypnosis
or Hypnotherapy
A hypnotherapist is
someone who is trained in hypnosis, and is able to use that training to help
people with many different issues.
Many people think that
hypnosis is something that happens to you while you sleep, but as every
hypnotherapist knows, hypnosis occurs when you access a different level or state
of consciousness. You certainly aren't asleep, and the sensation of being
hypnotised may or may not be one of deep relaxation now. Hypnosis
has been scientifically validated, and has been used to provide positive
suggestions to the listener for the purpose of, for example:
-
Losing weight
-
Gaining weight
-
Giving up smoking
-
Gaining confidence
-
Being more assertive
-
Tapping into
creativity
-
Memory enhancement
-
Accelerated healing
These are just some of
the areas that hypnotherapy has been used in, and there are so many more it is
impossible to list.
Why
does hypnosis work?
When you are in a trance
state (would you like to be hypnotised now or later?), which is nice and
relaxed, your conscious mind drifts off and allows your subconscious mind to be
a deep vessel for positive suggestions.
How
is hypnotherapy done?
What happens?
There are several
different ways to induce a trance state, or to be hypnotised:
-
There's the progressive
relaxation approach combined with positive suggestions and mental imagery;
-
The 'fixed gaze'
induction - which works with some people but not others. You are
instructed to fix your gaze on something (a spot, or a pendulum) and then
you are gradually led into a hypnosis state.
-
Mental confusion
also works well to hypnotise someone. By mentally confusing you, notice how one hand feels
really light, and the other hand feels so heavy as though a brick is
weighing it down... it can become easier to just let go
-
And, does this page
smell like roses or sound like a dolphin? Hmmm, now it will begin to
make sense that hypnosis works... doesn't it?
How
many hypnosis sessions will I need?
In
general, you should expect to have from 4 to 6 x 1 hr hypnotherapy sessions to obtain the
best results. People often get results sooner, but you should be prepared
to have that many, as research shows that you are much more likely to maintain
your desired outcome because of the repetitive nature of having a number of
hypnosis sessions.
