What is Hypnosis?
In Hypnosis you are in a relaxed state, where your
conscious mind ceases to be so active, but your
subconscious mind is in a state of heightened
awareness. This is the same as when you find
yourself daydreaming and then you suddenly
become aware of your surroundings, or when you
drive on autopilot. Your subconscious mind has
taken over, but when your conscious mind is
needed, it takes over in a split second.
What is Hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy uses hypnosis in bringing about
desired changes. Mutually agreed positive
suggestions are put into your subconscious mind
whilst you are in the relaxed state of hypnosis.
You will never be out of control or do anything
you disagree with or which is against your normal
moral or ethical code.
What is the role of the Hypnotherapist?
Through the power of suggestion, the
hypnotherapist acts as a guide for your
subconscious, facilitating changes by placing
positive suggestions into your subconscious mind,
using pictures and scripts to help change
the way you think.
Can anyone be hypnotised?
Clients can be hypnotised if they want to be.
However, a therapist would never attempt to
hypnotise those intoxicated by alcohol, drugs or
those with psychiatric conditions.
