What is (and isn't) Hypnosis? Over the years there have been many depictions of Hypnosis. The most common of which involves the “subject” becoming glassy eyed and affected by amnesia. Hypnosis is a perfectly natural state of mind and is not unlike meditation. How many times have you driven to work only to have hardly any recollection of the journey? were in a mild level of Hypnosis, had there been a need for your conscious mind to come to the foreground, then it would in an instant. Have you ever been reading a good book and been so engrossed in it that you haven’t even noticed that someone has come and sat next to you, well, that too is a mild Hypnotic state. Hypnosis is a state of mind that brings the subconscious to the foreground of thinking. The subconscious mind is invaluable, it holds all our instincts and survival techniques, but it sometimes gets things wrong and, for example, incorrectly takes something as a threat, even when to our conscious minds it is not, but the subconscious has veto, and won’t take no for an answer, if it says that it’s a threat then it damn well is. scared, but the subconscious is telling our bodies to work overtime as it prepares itself to fight. So what do we do? Well, if we can’t get any sense out of it with our conscious minds, we’ll just have to go straight to the subconscious , and we do that with Hypnosis. client MUST want it to happen. But how does it work? In the same way that you induce hypnosis in yourself just before you fall asleep, we can induce the same level of concentration in the consulting room very easily. pops into your mind as you relax in bed? allowing access to your memory banks |
