HEALTH & WELLNESS WHAT IS HYPNOSIS and what can it do for you? The different reactions I get when I tell people what I do for a living amaze me. They think about a stage hypnotist they saw or a movie or television show they watched that sometimes leave the wrong impression about how hypnotherapy works. Hopefully, this article will clear up any misconceptions. Hypnosis is a relaxed state in which your conscious-analytical reasoning mind allows the hypnotherapist to have a conversation with your subconscious mind. The subconscious mind controls all the functions of the body. It is your personal operating system for your heart rate, breathing, blood pressure, hunger, thirst, and sex drive. Your subconscious mind stores beliefs, habits, and your entire lifetime of memories forever. It operates 24/7 and controls 87-96% of your perception and behavior. Events happen - big and small - which cause an emotional reaction. These emotional reactions form a belief system in the subconscious mind. It’s not a coincidence that many of the issues plaguing you today, such as obesity, alcohol or drug abuse, stress, anger, sadness, trust issues, low self-esteem, fear, guilt, and the like, all stem from your subconscious mind. Hypnosis uses certain techniques, language patterns, and metaphors (to mention a few) to bypass what is called ‘the critical factor.’ This critical factor is like an imaginary line, with guards at the gate, between your conscious and subconscious mind. These hypnotic techniques allow you to implement positive thoughts, heal old memories and change perceptions that you have had for a long time. In this way, you can bring about lasting positive change for your greatest good. By Garry Melfa, CHT Hypnosis provides a natural, yet altered, relaxed state of mind. It is neither magic, mysterious, nor scary. You will leave feeling refreshed, motivated, and self-confident. There is a lot of information about hypnosis that can be found all over the Internet. Many people, however, either do not believe it will work for them or have fears about what would happen if it did work for them. Let me put your mind at ease. You will never do anything that makes you uncomfortable. You will not be brainwashed. You can end a session at anytime. You will remember the whole session. And, finally, you will not get stuck in a hypnotic state. Hypnosis provides a natural, yet altered, relaxed state of mind. It is neither magic, mysterious, nor scary. You will leave feeling refreshed, motivated, and self-confident. I have seen remarkable transformations and manifestations help clients overcome many issues - from such things as improving study/exam performance, stuttering, relationships, social anxiety, smoking, weight loss, and bad childhood situations. For me personally, hypnosis truly works, and it has helped me many times over the years. Hypnosis can also help you reach your personal, professional, and financial goals.
