HYPNOSIS
Most people think of smoking and weight-loss when they think of hypnosis. But it's so much more than that. The reason hypnosis is so effective with these issues is because habits are often driven by emotional stress.
Any condition made worse by stress can be improved or eliminated with hypnosis.
Hypnosis is commonly used to address underlying stress with a multitude of positive outcomes:
- Increase self confidence and self-esteem
- Overcome negative habits of thought, feeling and behavior
- Improve academic and sports performance
- Release fears and anxiety and feel more peaceful
- Release anger and frustration and feel more relaxed and at ease
- Support emotional and physical healing
- Relieve pain and speed post-operative recovery time
- Reduce pain medication and complications from surgery
What most people don't know is that there are two distinctive forms of hypnosis:
The traditional, and most common approach is called "relaxation hypnosis". That's where the hypnotist guides you into a relaxed state and then gives you suggestions for the changes you want.
There are times when relaxation hypnosis is not enough to create lasting change. When a problem is rooted in unresolved feelings from the past, that's when a deeper technique like Regression Hypnotherapy is called for.
What Hypnosis is NOT.
Hypnosis is not physical relaxation. It is the relaxation of the mind. So a skilled hypnotist will verify that you are actually in hypnosis. And then use words and imagery that are best suited to you.
Hypnosis is not sleep. Hypnosis is actually a hyper-alert state. So you're always aware of everything that's happening. You're never unconscious. You can stop at any time, open your eyes, talk, or go to the bathroom if the need arises.
