Is Hypnosis Right For You?
Hypnosis is an altered state of conditioning of the subconscious, to help people become highly responsive to suggestions, such as stopping smoking, losing weight, or breaking an unhealthy habit. Hypnosis conditions the mind, so that it is receptive to receiving the suggestions given.
Some people are a little apprehensive of the thought of hypnosis. They are concerned about this state of conditioning of the mind, simply because of how it is portrayed in the theatrics of television shows.
You cannot get stuck in hypnosis. Hypnosis is a trance. Did you know that you go into a state of hypnosis when you daydream, drive long distances, or read? You are in a state of hypnosis (trance) when you are unaware of your surroundings.
Hypnosis has been is the forefront since and before the 50's. During that time hypnosis was introduced to audiences as a sideshow, usually with magicians, and for that reason people were unclear as to what hypnosis actually is.
There were a lot of misconceptions. To clear up some of the common misconceptions that you still hear about today, no, you do not lose consciousness, tell secrets, or surrender your will; no, it is not only for the weak minded; and no you do not and cannot get stuck in a hypnotic state.
During sideshows the hypnotist would use the power of suggestion on the person to whom he or she has put in a state of receptivity (trance), by having the person do something unusual, like act like a chicken or quack like a duck. This state was only to show the power of suggestions in the subconscious mind.
Finding a hypnotist to work with is like anything else you consider very important in your life and wellbeing.
You would not go to any doctor, hair stylist, barber, or just date anyone without knowing something about that person. This gives you assurance that the person can be trusted. Interview the hypnotist, ask questions, and have confidence with whomever you trust yourself with.
Hypnosis is another way of self-healing, and it can help you personally achieve what you want in life. Hypnosis can guide you in changing unhealthy habits and it can help you in attaining the absolute best for you if that is what you want.
Everyone should experience the hypnotic state of their subconscious mind. Everyone should be given the power of positive suggestions so that they may achieve consciously what they really want in this life. Wealth, health, stress-free, pain-free, good night's sleep, the love of your life, or whatever you want, may be found with the power of hypnosis.
“You are getting sleepy… (suggestion). You will be healthy, wealthy, pain free, you will have a good night sleep and you will emerge into a consciences state, happy and pain free. 1 2 3 open your eyes.” You feel good, don't you?
Sat Nam.
