Frequently Asked Questions?
Does Hypnosis Really
Work?
Yes. Hypnosis has been shown in studies to be the most effective method
of stopping smoking and losing weight. It has been used for hundreds of
years for anesthesia in surgery and is the most effective
and fastest method of change available today.
Can the hypnotist control
me?
The simple answer is no. Before I start a session I always show my clients
how to emerge by themselves if they find I am suggesting something that
is un-acceptable to them. To date this has never happened and I don’t
expect it will but the client always has the option of stopping a session
if they want.
Will I be asleep?
No. Hypnosis has nothing to do with sleep. You are actually more aware
of what is going on around you when in hypnosis than you normally would
be.
What happens if I don’t
wake up?
There is nothing to wake up from. You will not be asleep.
How many sessions does
it take?
For a quitting smoking, it takes 1 session and I offer a free backup session
if required. For weight loss it is generally 4 to 6 sessions.
For other changes you want to make, please phone or email for estimates.
Will I remember the
session?
In general you will remember the whole session. But just like watching
a movie, if your mind wanders or you daydream you may forget parts of
the session.
What about stage show
hypnosis? Are the volunteers not asleep?
The volunteers are not asleep. They may have their eyes closed and be
very relaxed but they are more aware of what is going on around them.
Stage hypnosis operates exactly the same way as any other hypnosis. If
the stage hypnotist makes a suggestion which is acceptable to a volunteer,
a thought pattern will be established. For example if the suggestion is
given that the volunteer will start to feel cold is acceptable to the
volunteer then that thought pattern will be established and the volunteer
will actually feel cold. If the volunteer is given a suggestion to do
something that they don’t want to do or something against their
morals, they will reject that suggestion and not respond.
Will I reveal personal
information I don’t want to?
No. You are more aware than normal and you will only reveal what you want
to.
