What
is hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a natural state of mind, and we experience it every day. When you watch TV, get absorbed in reading a book, day-dream or drive your car down the road and put it on ‘automatic’ your mind zones out to the exclusion of what is happening around you, and that is a trance state of hypnosis. You are still fully conscious, but you are in an altered state of awareness. There are three main symptoms of this state: your attention is focused, you feel relaxed and calm and your mind is open to suggestions that bypass the critical mind. Why is hypnosis so effective in changing the behavior patterns? This is so, because hypnosis gives access to the subconscious mind. All the patterns of behavior are stored there. The unproductive or negative behavior is accompanied by negative imprints in the subconscious mind. Many of these negative patterns come from painful and distressful experiences in life. Through hypnotherapy, these negative patterns are replaced with positive thoughts and suggestions.
When coming for the first session, you will be asked to either print out the intake forms from the website and fill them out in advance, or arrive at the office 15-20 minutes early and get the forms there to fill out. When you come to my office, we will first discuss the issue you want to work on, and then I will test your suggestibility by asking you some questions. By determining your suggestibility, I will be able to assist you effectively and guide you in achieving your goal. Then I will explain in detail what hypnosis is and how the hypnotherapy works to dispel any doubts, misconceptions, or fears you might have regarding hypnotherapy. This will help you to take the full advantage of your hypnotherapy session. In addition, I will also explain how hypnotherapy can help you overcome your individual problem. Hypnotherapy requires your active participation. After that, you will spend 15 – 20 minutes in relaxed state of hypnosis, being fully conscious and in control of your experience. When you come back to normal wakeful state we may briefly discuss your experience and then we will schedule your next appointment, you will pay and leave refreshed and relaxed.
No. You will be fully conscious and awake and at the same time pleasantly relaxed. Hypnosis is not an unconscious state of sleep. Most people become even more sensitive during hypnosis, more focused and more concentrated.
No. Nobody can make you do anything you do not want. You allow yourself to enter hypnotic state. The hypnotist is only your guide or facilitator and gives you suggestions, based on your cognitive interview, with a sole purpose to assist you in achieving your goal. Will I be able to come out of hypnosis? Yes, absolutely. Hypnosis is very safe and natural state of awareness. You can come out of it at any time you want just by opening your eyes and saying aloud your name. This will immediately put you in beta state or normal state of awareness. Do you want to stop smoking, but you have trouble to do so? Hypnotherapy is the most effective way to quit smoking. According to statistics, hypnotherapy is 90% successful in helping people quit smoking and stay away from cigarettes for life. The HMI institute developed a very effective stop smoking program. Most of the smokers are able to quit smoking in one session. Call for a free phone consultation to see, whether you are ready for one session stop smoking or it will take several sessions. In any case, you will get the empowerment you need to say goodbye to cigarettes for life. This is the list of the beneficial changes within the body when you stop smoking: Within
20 minutes of the last cigarette: 8
Hours: 24 hours: 48
hours: 72
hours: 2
weeks and 3 months: 1
to 9 months: 5
years: 10
years: 1. Do you have a hunger for exploring past lives, which is more than idle curiosity? 2. Do you have a life-long fascination with a particular period in history? 3. Do you feel drawn to specific location in which you have no conscious connection with? 4. Have you ever sensed that “home” is somewhere else? 5. Have you ever had dreams in the distant past that seem too real to be mere dreams? 6. Do you have a love for antiques and historical buildings? 7. Do you have an unusually strong bond to a friend, family member or acquaintance that cannot be explained by your present relationship? 8. Do you feel negativity towards someone without understanding why you dislike him or her? 9. Do you suffer from phobia or irrational fear that you can find no obvious cause? 10. Are there any persistent physical ailments or health issues that you or your doctor is unable to find a physical cause?
Past life regression using hypnosis is a safe way to recover any memories of the past lives that you might have. Through hypnosis, you can access your subconscious mind, where all the impressions of any of life that you might have lived, are stored in detail. Often, people have amazing experience of times and lives that they have lived before and many of them have been scientifically researched and proven to be true. Some people find the answers, why they suffer from a particular issue in this life that seemingly has no cause. Some people want to do the past life regression for their spiritual growth, because they might be struggling with some particular issue on their spiritual path. Through discovering their past lives they gain amazing understanding of who they were before and what lessons they have already learned and what lessons they need to learn in this life of their soul journey. |
