What is Hypnosis?
The use of hypnosis dates back thousands of years ago, and in recent centuries, it has been used effectively for medical, psychological, and dental applications. Due to advances in neuroscience, this altered state of consciousness is now better understood. Moreover, as people are taking increasing responsibility for their own health, more and more are considering approaches like hypnosis.
It is a naturally occurring state of awareness in which a person is more inclined to accept outside suggestions. The hypnotic state heightens memory and perceptions and can act as a catalyst towards rapid healing, enhanced creativity, and countless other beneficial changes.
Hypnosis is a state of deep relaxation during which your sensory awareness is heightened and your attention moves inwards. As you become progressively more relaxed during the induction process, your brainwaves slow down from an alert state to a calmer one. This allows easier access to the unconscious mind, in order to facilitate helpful changes. Research has shown that when we are in this very pleasant trance state, we have an enhanced capacity for insight, creativity, healing illnesses, and accelerated learning. Inhibitions can be reduced and new skills can be strengthened.
The hypnotic state automatically occurs anytime a person is deeply relaxed or highly focused. A professional hypnotist can prompt and regulate the hypnotic state in individuals and help facilitate desired change through the use of properly worded hypnosis suggestions. Because hypnosis is a relaxing trance state, it is particularly effective for reducing anxiety and enchancing feelings of calm and confidence. Nobody has power over you during the process, you are always in control and work as a team with the hypnotist. And yes, you are aware of what is happening at all times and you do remember it afterwards.
It is a very natural reaction. Experts say there is nothing scary about the trance state. In fact, we are in that state when we daydream; listen to repetitive sounds like drumming, and during the process of falling asleep. Most hypnosis clients describe the state as extremely pleasant, deeply relaxing, and euphoric.
The number of hypnosis sessions needed depends on the individual, personal history, and current situation.
