Hypnotherapy is a natural, safe, and comfortable method of using a person’s subconscious mind and creative intelligence to achieve a goal, or to resolve issues.
Through the use of hypnosis, a Hypnotherapist assists the client to change negative thinking into positive action.
Pain management, weight loss, smoking cessation, relaxation and stress management, insomnia, and improved concentration are some of the issues which can be managed successfully by hypnotherapy.
The client becomes the co-therapist and joins the Hypnotherapist in changing old patterns of beliefs or negative thoughts into new beliefs or actions that better serve the client.
When in trance your conscious mind remains engaged while the subconscious mind is accessed. At any time, you can bring yourself out of hypnosis if you have a strong desire to do so.
In hypnosis, you cannot be made to do or say anything you do not wish to do or say.
You cannot be made to act against your will or moral code. For this reason, change can take place in hypnosis only if you are committed to making that change.
If you enjoy the hypnotic state of complete relaxation so much that you want to remain in that state for a while and resist being counted out of trance, you will simply fall asleep to awaken a short time later feeling wonderfully relaxed.
While in trance, you hear everything that is being said and are aware of everything happening around you.
Anyone who has a strong desire to be hypnotized can be hypnotized.
Hypnotic trance is a deeply relaxed, natural state of focused concentration.
The benefits of Hypnotherapy
There are many documented cases of the benefits of hypnotic suggestion. People have lost weight and effectively maintained the loss, stopped smoking, healed more quickly, controlled pain, overcome insomnia, and become more creative, just to name some successes.
The most effective benefits are achieved through the co-therapy relationship of the client with a well trained, properly certified Hypnotherapist. The Hypnotherapist is a facilitator for empowering the client to heal himself.
Most clients describe being in the hypnotic trance state as allowing them to experience the most satisfying relaxation they have ever achieved
