Hypnotherapy explained
Are you new to Hypnotherapy? Have you ever been in a ‘trance’? What if I suggested to you that you’ve already experienced a hypnotic ‘trance-like’ state, thousands of times! Don’t believe it? Have you ever been so engrossed in a book or a magazine, or been so mesmerised watching a television programme, that you’ve blanked out everything else around you? Your attention was so totally focused on just that one thing that you pushed everything else into the background. Do you drive a car? Have you ever driven somewhere with the radio on, and when you arrived at your destination, you couldn’t recall the details of the journey? You felt like you were driving on ‘autopilot’. Daydreaming Do you daydream, perhaps staring out the window at work or at home, lost in your own thoughts? Oblivious to everything around you? Most people would say ‘yes’ to some, or all, of the above. Brain Power We are born with the most amazing computer inside our heads. Our brain has a complexity that is still mostly uncharted by medical researchers and there is no certainty that it’s intricacies will ever be fully understood. However, its power over our mental and physical well-being is well documented, and by using the amazing techniques of Hypnotherapy, we can put that power to work to enhance the quality of our lives. Working with the 'sub-conscious' Ever wondered why you can tell yourself to change a behaviour you don't like - and really mean it- but the old behaviour just keeps coming back? Well those patterns of behaviour emanate from your 'sub-conscious' and all the willpower in the world has precious little effect, as you have doubtless experienced. Hypnotherapeutic techniques are targeted at your 'subconscious' and can change that old programming into positive patterns that make you happier and healthier, without drugs and their harmful side-effects. How long has hypnosis been around? The history of hypnosis stretches back thousands of years and hypnotherapy pre-dates most branches of 'modern' mainstream medicine. Prior to the invention of chemical anaesthetics, it was widely used in surgical operations for complete anaesthesia and pain relief. Is hypnotherapy recognised by the medical profession? In the late 19th century (1892), the British Medical Association (BMA) satisfied themselves of the genuineness of the hypnotic state. In 1955, the BMA re-confirmed their recognition of the therapeutic benefits of hypnosis, and in 1958 the American Medical Association (AMA) did likewise. Hypnotherapy - the effective therapy Hypnotherapy is a relaxing, effective, and stress-free therapy, which uses the power of the mind to make beneficial changes that would be very difficult to achieve by other means – if at all! Most clients notice the beneficial effects of the therapy very quickly and usually report feeling more relaxed and more confident than they have felt for a very long time. |
