Use Hypnosis to Create A Thriving Mind!

Most people in the world associate hypnosis with a form of entertainment – the cliché clock swaying back and forth in front of a volunteer’s face that magically convinces them that they are a chicken or convinces them to bark like a dog.  It’s entertaining to witness these silly antics on stage; however, when taken more seriously, hypnosis can be used as a very effective therapeutic and enlightening tool. Hypnotherapy allows you to navigate subconscious feelings, release and heal them, and then create a better version of yourself .
Hypnosis is a state of highly focused consciousness. Hypnotherapy is the therapeutic practice of hypnosis for the purpose of affecting attitudinal change and positive behavioral change.
Hypnosis has been practiced within professions such as psychiatrists, psychologists, physicians, dentists, chiropractors, marriage counselors, social workers, nurses and physical therapists.

To gain a better understanding of what it is like to be in a hypnotic trance, think about when you daydream: You wake up realizing that you are sitting at your desk in the office, you have been looking out the window and now you are back in the present moment, back at the task in front of you. You were in the land of daydreaming far off from anything work-related. Perhaps you were on a vacation in France or a dancer in front of a delightful audience. The world is no longer around you, but just a minute ago, another world existed. Daydreaming is a similar to hypnosis. Depending upon ones suggestibility, a person can go in and out of trance-like states several times a day.
Hypnosis happens when both the conscious and subconscious minds come together. You are not asleep or awake. It is somewhere in between. A hypnotic sleep is a twilight experience. Hypnosis is a heightened state of awareness that in a positive way, alters the state of consciousness. When in this state, you are aware of your surroundings including all the noises around them. On another level, you feel distant from those sounds and surroundings. It is as if there is an absence of time. Hypnosis is a focus of concentration where visualizing and imagining take place. While in the state of hypnosis, the subconscious mind is open and receptive to receive positive images and suggestions. Hypnotherapist, specifically, design the client’s session based upon client needs and desires.
Hypnosis occurs when an overload of message units and information comes into the conscious mind. The conscious mind has a difficult time handling the amount of data it is receiving so an escape occurs. This escape is called the fight and flight mechanism. When the flight and flight mechanism has been activated, ones suggestibility has been heightened and the subconscious mind can be more easily accessed. Whether a person is in self-hypnosis or has help from a therapist, the subject must want the experience. The subject will only do what they want to do; they are in control at all times.  Because of the fact that the client must have the desire to be hypnotized, all hypnosis can be considered self-hypnosis.
