Hypnosis. 

What is Hypnosis?

Have you ever missed your exit while driving on your regular commute because you were “in deep thought” or “spaced out”?

Have you ever been watching a movie and cried, got scared or had an emotional reaction to it? It is during these periods that our subconscious mind is extremely open and receptive to suggestions coming from our own thoughts or from our environment.

The truth is, we go in and out of hypnosis several times a day without even knowing it. Hypnosis is a heightened state of suggestibility that everyone experiences on a daily basis.

What is Hypnotherapy?

Hypnotherapy is simply combining the powerful tool of hypnosis in a safe environment with a skilled, understanding, trained hypnotherapist. The first step is to discuss any goals or desires you may have with your Hypnotherapist and together, you both agree on a therapeutic approach.

While under hypnosis, your Hypnotherapist will work with your subconscious mind to support these goals becoming a reality in your life.

During the hypnotic session, you are not asleep. In fact, your mind is quite alert and you are very in tune with all that is happening around you. Your senses are heightened and you are able to concentrate on what the Hypnotherapist is saying.

Everything that occurs during your Hypnotherapy session can be recalled. You will leave feeling refreshed and alert with a wonderful sense of well-being.

It is important to know that most issues will require more than one session and some may require several sessions before success is achieved. It takes time and repetition for new things to be integrated into the subconscious mind.

What is a Hypnotherapist?

A hypnotherapist is a trained professional who utilizes hypnosis as a primary tool for assisting clients to achieve their goals. A Hypnotherapist often differs from others therapists by focusing on the role of subconscious behaviors and influences on the client’s life.

It is important for you to choose a well trained Hypnotherapist.  Do not hesitate to ask where the Hypnotherapist attended school.  Was it a college or a weekend class?  This information could be a critical factor to the results you may have in hypnosis sessions.

Hypnotherapy is a powerful tool that is used to reprogram the subconscious. Most of our thoughts, words and actions come from beliefs that we created when were children. Our subconscious takes up 80% of the brain, it is our main operating system. Often times when we are unable to change a behavior, its because the subconscious is operating on autopilot due to past conditioning. Hypnosis allows you to go into the subconscious and make changes to the programs that no longer serve you. This allows for faster and more effective changes.
