What is Hypnosis & Hypnotherapy?
A hypnotic trance is a natural state for all of us. We all dip in and out of a hypnotic trance state several times during the day. When you daydream, you become lost in thought or just sit still and stare out into space. Perhaps only for a few seconds, but you are in a natural, everyday trance state. You may see internal images, hear sounds, hold an internal dialog. Hypnosis is a form of therapy which enables you to enlist the help of your conscious and unconscious/subconscious mind. The emphasis is goal orientated and allows you to focus your attention internally, re-accessing resources and creating new associations, patterns of thinking and behaving. It is holistic, safe and effective and has successfully helped many people deal with a range of mental, emotional and physical conditions
Is Hypnosis / Hypnotherapy the same as sleep?
No, it is not the same. It is an altered state of mind similar to daydreaming or becoming so absorbed in an activity, that you lose track of all time. During a hypnotic trance you are not asleep, merely unconcerned about your surroundings. Some people liken it to feeling in between being asleep and awake.
Will I loose control during hypnosis?
You are in control the whole time, just very relaxed. During hypnosis your attention is focused on your internal world, so you are even more aware of physical and psychological changes, hence, even more in control of yourself.
Will I give away my secrets?
You are in complete control of yourself, you will not say or do anything that will be against your will. There is no need to divulge any more information than is necessary to alleviate your current problem.
Can anybody be Hypnotised?
Nobody can be hypnotised against their will, so if you choose not to be hypnotised, you will not be. However, it is said that if you allow the process to occur, that most people are hypnotisable. It is important to have a comfortable and trusting relationship with your therapist.
Will I remember everything during hypnosis?
Some things you might remember, other stuff maybe not. Most clients report they didn't remember everything from the sessions but that they started to behave and think differently after the sessions in line with their desired outcome. Sometimes it will be necessary for you to remember certain pieces of the process in order to ensure your total success. Occasionally clients believe they remember everything, because they are totally unaware of the information they have forgotten. Sometimes clients believe they have fallen asleep and remember almost nothing about the process, although report feeling very relaxed. In this event it is unlikely that sleep has occurred, but rather a deep level of trance, accompanied by amnesia.
