Many people get confused about hypnosis and what hypnotherapy really is. It is important to remember that hypnosis is not a state of deep sleep. In hypnosis, the subject is put into a trance like state, but is fully aware of the state that he or she is in, and can fully hear the therapist’s voice. The subject will remember the experience, and is not the same as stage hypnosis where you will often see subjects placed in a deep state of hypnosis.
Hypnotherapy itself began as far as 6,000 years ago by the ancient Egyptians who first discovered the possibility of suggestive thoughts. James Braid is known as “the father of hypnosis” and he discovered that patients could undergo medical operations with hypnotherapy taking the place of the traditional anesthetics.
Hypnotherapy itself is all about promoting healing and positive development in your body. It is about taping into ones subconscious mind, and re-programming it to reach their maximum inner potential. The subconscious mind covers around 80% of your brain in total, and has two functions, which are to record and remember all of your life experiences and to protect you from any fears you have in your mind.
With hypnotherapy it is possible to re-programme your mind and get rid of fears, phobias, traumatic issues, negative thoughts and much more. During the hypnosis state, your body begins to feel lighter and lighter, and you feel like your negative issues are falling out of your body. As you exhale, your negative emotions and thoughts exit the body, and as you inhale, these same thoughts return to your mind but they are positive.
Some people can be nervous or scared about using hypnotherapy to help with traumatic issues and it is important to remember that no-one can by hypnotised if they are not willing to allow it, or if they do not truly believe in hypnosis and the power of it. Generally speaking, around 90% of all people can be hypnotised. Generally speaking the best people for hypnosis are those who find it easy to concentrate, and those willing to believe in the power of hypnosis.
