What is "hypnosis"?
Hypnosis
can be defined in many ways, but what it is for the normal average human
being is the natural state of consciousness. Hypnosis is both natural
and consciousness. While in hypnosis, the person is always awake, and
and always aware of everything. Hypnosis is sometimes an altered state
of consciousness because we get very, very relaxed. While hynotized, the
average person is very relaxing and the mind focuses, almost hyper-focuses
and in that state of conscious awareness. The mind becomes very adaptable
and amenable to taking on suggestions and of course suggestions in hypnotherapy,
are suggestions for change. So, to state it succinctly, hypnosis is a
natural state of consciousness that every normal human being experiences
several times everyday. On could go into the hypnosis state while watching
a movie, reading a good book, driving down the freeway and sort of zoning
out, which we all tend to do, are just daydreaming, are all examples of
a natural hypnotic state. Hypnosis induced for hypnotherapy clinic is
to use that state of consciousness, intensify it, which helps people create
change and transformations in their life.
Why use hypnosis?
Hypnosis can be used for many reasons. It's important to understand that
hypnosis is simply a state of consciousness. Hypnosis can be used in many
ways. Hypnosis used in stage show is what most people think of when they
think of hypnosis. You might not want to go through hypnosis for that
purpose, unless you like being on a show. More often hypnosis is used
for clinical purpose. You might want to experience hypnosis just to see
what it feels like, and of course it may be underwhelming, because it
doesn't feel very like much like anything except deeply relaxing. Hypnosis
can help with some issue in your life; an unwanted or unhealthy habit,
perhaps a behavioral pattern, perhaps a lack of self-confidence, a fear
or phobia that's keeping you from living the kind of life you'd like to
live, or even a medical or psychological condition that is keeping you
from living the kind of life you want to live, then hypnosis can be a
very powerful tool to help you overcome or manage that condition.
Hypnosis is safe
In spite of the false and erroneous impression about hypnosis from either
movies or stage hypnosis, there was never any report of:
Harm or injury caused by clinical hypnosis:
Harm or injury caused by stage hypnosis other than embarrassment.
Criminal acts while the perpetrator was under hypnosis.
Victims of criminal act while the victim was under hypnosis.
There was never any report of any harm or injury caused by hypnosis in
real life.
