Hypnosis is NOT what you think…
Until recently in our history, hypnosis has had a very mysterious and secretive aura. It was an unknown phenomenon left to the realms of magic and stage show entertainment. Most people either didn’t believe, or believed it to be some sort of mind control in which the hypnotist makes the subject do strange and embarrassing things…
– like clucking like a chicken or singing like Elvis.
We now know that hypnosis is a natural state, one into which the human mind goes naturally and without assistance several times each day. By learning to go into this focused, selective state of mind purposely, we can use it to achieve significant benefits in mind/body health, mental and emotional wellness, and personal and professional development.
Hypnosis IS:
- A process or a state of mind – both of which provide a way to open your mind to suggestions that you allow and choose.
- A focused and selective state with the benefit of heightened awareness and greater power of imagination.
- Enhanced access to mental resources without interference from external stimuli or internal resistance.
- Something that can be either a natural ‘talent’ or a learned ‘skill’.
- A partnership between the hypnotist and the subject, in which the subject has complete control.
- Similar to daydreaming, or ‘zoning out’ on the TV or the computer.
- A process that can be in harmony within any belief system, philosophy, or religious practice.
- Safe, natural, and proven over and over in numerous studies.
- A powerful and efficient tool for:
- Changing habits
- Increasing motivation
- Enhancing mental and physical health and well-being
- Augmenting learning skills, memory, mental acuity
- Relieving stress
- Releasing detrimental patterns from the past
- Establishing ‘new’ mental patterns
- Emotional management
- Feeling happier, more energetic, more positive and optimistic
- Improving confidence, self-esteem, social skills
- And lots more…
