What is Hypnosis?Have you ever been totally absorbed while reading a book, cooking or watching a movie? Did you zone out to the point you didn't notice what else was going on around you? If so, you've experienced a trance-like state that's similar to what happens to you during hypnosis.
The purpose of hypnosis is to help you gain more control over your behavior, emotions or physical well-being. Actually, hypnosis or hypnotherapy is better described than defined. It is often considered an altered state of consciousness featuring "selective perception", a process in which the subject (who is in control) chooses to see only what is relevant to his task, blocking out everything else. Hypnosis involves guided concentration. The guidance, however, may be provided by a qualified practitioner or, in the case of self-hypnosis, by the individual subject. Self-hypnosis, which can be taught by a properly certified hypnotist and learned by virtually any client, can provide the recipient with a lifetime of benefit. Hypnosis is first and foremost a natural state of consciousness. For most people it feels very much like the drowsy state one experiences just before drifting off to sleep. Hypnosis feels wonderful! When in hypnosis, the body is relaxed and the mind is relaxed so that good, acceptable suggestions are readily incorporated into the subconscious mind. The subconscious is the part of the mind that makes us do what we do, so a positive change here can reap tremendous benefits. Hypnosis is not sleep. A hypnotized person is not unconscious. A person in hypnosis hears everything that is said and remembers everything that goes on during the session. A hypnotized person will not do anything that violates his/her moral, religious or ethical code. If the hypnotized person is given a suggestion that he/she is uncomfortable with, he/she will reject the suggestion. Hypnosis is a 100% consent state and unlike many medications, there are no contraindications with hypnosis.
