Hypnotic
techniques can induce everything from a light to a heavy hypnotic
state to help a client overcome psychological or physical problems.
From helping people to overcome a craving for cigarettes to managing
chronic pain from an illness or accident, trained hypnotherapists
work with a wide variety of problems.
The state of
hypnosis is like a doorway between the conscious and
subconscious areas of your brain. In a hypnotic state you can
access memories and creativity and store new information. You
have direct access to the power of the subconscious as the deep
relaxation you experience encourages the conscious brain to step
back. In this way you can bypass any limiting beliefs of the
conscious mind such as ‘I can’t do it’, and ask your intuitive
self ‘how can I do it?’ instead.
Combining
this access to the subconscious with modern therapeutic
techniques is the essence of hypnotherapy and explains why long
lasting, positive behavioural change can be achieved in just a
few sessions.
There are
many techniques within the overall discipline of hypnotherapy
and each Hypnostyx session addresses a particular condition and
provides the self-belief, motivation and determination to
achieve that specific goal.

Q |
What is hypnosis?
|
|
A |
During hypnosis,
the body and conscious mind are in a
relaxed, natural state, while the
subconscious mind remains awake and
receptive to suggestion. The purpose of
hypnosis is to bypass the Conscious
Critical Faculty and talk directly to
the subconscious mind.

Q |
How does the
subconscious accept hypnotic
suggestions?
|
|
A |
A Hypnotic
suggestions bypass the intellectual
mind, called the "conscious,"
and zero in on the subconscious. When
given a new suggestion that is within
the bounds of a person's belief system
and moral orientation, the subconscious
mind accepts it literally as a new
reality.

Q |
How does hypnosis
help people?
|
|
A |
The ability to
reprogram emotional attitudes and
reactions is a latent talent within
every human being. Hypnosis is the most
functional and reasonable way to train
life-long attitudes, rather than suffer
a lifetime of emotional accidents the
conscious mind is unable to change.

Q |
Can any person be
hypnotized?
|
|
A |
People of average
intelligence and above (unless there is
some form of organic brain damage) can
be hypnotized in most cases if they are
willing and do not resist. The depth of
hypnosis varies with a person's ability
to respond. If you are not a naturally
responsive subject, you can improve
your receptivity to hypnosis with
practice
