What Is Hypnosis
Hypnosis is defined as a deliberately induced state of mind in which the client becomes extremely aware, beyond the awareness of normal wakefulness. In this state the client focus of awareness is entirely upon the suggestions of the hypnotist. These suggestions if accepted uncritically go directly into the clients subconscious mind and new thought patterns result.
Why Is Hypnosis So Effective
Hypnosis is effective because
is changes the thought patterns within the subconscious mind. Your subconscious
mind is the feeling, emotional part of you. For example, a smoker will
have a thought pattern that they need cigarettes at certain times and in
certain situations. If that thought pattern is changed then that person
will not feel like smoking any more. That is why hypnosis is so effective,
it changes the feeling mind. The ex-smoker is not feeling deprived. They
will simply be happy to be a non smoker. The withdrawal symptoms will
be very minor or non-existent.
The same is true for people who overeat. Once the thought patterns are
changed then they no longer feel like overeating and will automatically
loose weight.
Why Is Change Difficult Using Will Power Or Logic
We know logically we should
not smoke, we know logically we should not overeat. However knowing something
logically does not change how we feel about something emotionally. If
we don’t change the emotional / feeling thought patterns, knowing
something logically is of very little benefit.
Most people, when they try to make a change use willpower. The try to
suppress or push down the emotional / feeling thought pattern that they
are trying to change. While they are pushing, they will change. However
as soon as they stop pushing the emotions and feelings are back as strong
as ever. This is why 95% of diets and most attempts at quitting smoking
fail. Willpower is not designed for long term change. It is the wrong
tool for the job.
Initial Consultation
We have a 30 min consultation with each new client wesee. We discuss what changes the client wants and why they want them. During that consultation wegive a full explanation of hypnosis. What it is, how it works and why it works. If we decide to work together we then start the first session.
What Happens in A Hypnosis Session
Each session is tailored to
the individual clients needs but this is a general guide.
The client is guided into a state of mental and physical relaxation. (
You are not asleep. See FAQ ) Acceptable suggestions will then be given
to the subconscious mind to change the old thought patterns to new thought
patterns that the client wants. This may last from 30 to 90 minutes depending
on what we are working on to change. At the end of the session the client
is emerged with these new thought patterns established.
