Many people may not realise hypnosis therapy is nothing in comparison to stage hypnosis. Stage hypnosis for example, is purely for entertainment purposes and nothing else. Whilst stage hypnosis does also perform the task of bringing hypnosis to the general public, it has absolutely no therapy component to it (except maybe the stress reduction given to the audience through all of the laughter at the show).
What is hypnosis therapy you may ask. Hypnosis therapy, or clinical hypnotherapy as it is often known, is the therapeutic application of hypnosis in order to adjust the “mental programming” of an individual that has a problem. The different types of problems that hypnosis therapy can assist with vary greatly, from weight loss, stop smoking, anxiety and depression, and many thousands of different areas.
Any issue that a person may have that may be affected either by their mindset, behaviours, habits or beliefs may be greatly improved by using hypnosis to improve the patterns used by person’s subconscious mind.
So what is the subconscious mind and what does it do? The subconscious mind is responsible for maintaining all your belief, habits, behaviours and essentially your personality. When a person decides to take on a new skill or habit, they often consciously rehearse and repeat many different actions and thoughts. The subconscious mind takes on these learnings and makes them part of your automatic behaviours.
For example, when a person learns to drive a car, they are very mindful of everything from plugging in a seatbelt through to adjusting mirrors, to even that handbrake. They drive down the road at a good ruling 5 mph, and to them it feels almost as if they are on our Raceway. Pretty soon, having practised more and more, the person can jump in the car and without much conscious thought drive from point a to point B. Meanwhile, the subconscious mind has learned from all the rehearsal how to do the bulk of the driving for you.
What this means, is any behaviour, habit or addiction that you find yourself engaging in, can be drastically improved using hypnosis therapy to improve your existing patterns.
A hypnotherapist is a person who specialises in using hypnosis to help a person change. Depending on the issue, but hypnotherapist may employ different techniques that will allow you to fastly improve the relationship you have with your own subconscious mind. Whilst some people will profess that hypnosis is not mind control, I like to believe that it allows an individual control of their own mind. If a hypnotherapist provides suggestions that are negative and something that you would not consciously accept, then your subconscious mind will reject those suggestions due to protection mechanisms that your mind has.
Hypnosis therapy is completely safe and natural. Occasionally you may hear on the news of individuals who have delivered negative suggestions in hypnosis and find themselves in quite a legal predicament. These individuals, are often untrained, do not understand how hypnosis truly works, and most often not qualified clinical hypnotherapists.
