Reassuring
Reasons why Hypnosis is your Friend
Believe the hype or think for
yourself
For too long
hypnosis has had a bad or 'difficult' press.
If a person doesn't understand something they have 3 options
open to them.
1) They might be sceptical and
therefore save the trouble of looking further and possibly
benefiting.
2) They may conclude it is
dangerous and to be avoided at all costs.
3) They may spend time
discovering the truth behind the hype.
If you don't know much about a
topic it's easy to be suspicious. Some people assume hypnosis
is akin to a carnival side show, others consider it mystic
mumbo jumbo or 'mind control.' For those who look beyond the
hype the truth is far more illuminating.
The most powerful tool you
possess
There are potentially huge
benefits for those who use hypnosis as part of everyday life.
When you understand hypnosis you start to see its potential to
improve human performance in the physical, emotional and
intellectual realms. For me, rumour, gossip and suspicion
weren't good enough.
I determined to learn all I
could about hypnosis - I learned every fact and practised every
technique under the sun. I took several training courses - some
good, some terrible. I invested thousands of hours of devoted
study to hypnosis and discovered just what is possible. I
hypnotised friends, neighbours and work colleagues. Hypnosis
greatly changed things for me on a personal level
How hypnosis helped
me
I used to be shy. Thanks to
hypnosis I can now talk to thousands at a time and can approach
anybody calmly and confidently.
I used to have poor
concentration and procrastinate; thanks to hypnosis I can
instantly motivate myself.
I used to find physical work
outs and exercise exhausting but because of hypnosis I am now
in the best shape of my life.
Incidentally I also stopped
myself blushing with hypnosis. Now if ever I have a difficult
call or conversation coming up, something I may naturally feel
reluctant to do (you know the kind of thing) I spontaneously
self hypnotise and rehearse the upcoming situation feeling
good, with myself remaining calm. In this way I habitually set
my own emotional 'blue prints' for up coming situations. Having
said that it's naturally that some people have concerns or half
digested 'hand me down' ideas regarding hypnosis. A common one
is the one about 'mind control.' However what does this really
mean?
Why you are more in control
of yourself in hypnosis
If someone expresses concerns
about being 'controlled' in hypnosis what they mean is they
don't want to be like a robot, an automaton that is forced to
obey the every whim of the hypnotist. We can't help but
influence others but we don't control them. To understand why
you need to understand hypnosis better.
So what is hypnosis
like?
Hypnosis isn't like a coma.
It's not unconsciousness - more a subtle shifting of
consciousness. In hypnosis, you can still think logically but
you also have access to the 'software' of your mind so that you
can update instinctive emotional and physical responses. In
fact the hypnotised subject (not the hypnotist) calls the
shots. When I hypnotise someone I need to go at their speed and
respond to their needs and expectations. Hypnosis will give you
more control in your own life because of what it enables you to
do.
How can I be so
sure?
Because over the decades I've
seen all kinds of people, all ages and from all backgrounds
turn their lives around thanks to hypnosis. When you use
hypnosis for yourself it improves confidence in all kinds of
ways. When you use it to change other's lives it just blows you
away. This is what I mean.
When I first hypnotised
someone to feel no sensation in a painful arthritic arm it was
an incredible feeling. When I first cured life long phobias
quickly and comfortably I was astounded. When I stopped
hardened alcoholics from drinking and even got a heroin addict
off the stuff and back into mainstream life again I started to
feel angry that people could just associate hypnosis with
entertainment.
With the aid of hypnosis I
(and many people I have trained and worked with) have helped
severely depressed people feel strong and positive again. The
rewards and satisfactions are hard to describe. I'm going to
take a stand against ignorance and short sightedness around
hypnosis and here's why.
Why you need to reclaim
hypnosis for yourself
Hypnosis is your birthright.
It's nature's optimum learning tool. In fact to learn and
perform anything well you need to experience a natural
focussing of attention, a natural kind of hypnosis. To be
successful hypnosis needs to be your companion and
friend.
Successful people use it
naturally all the time because hypnosis is natural. It's the
way we learn new responses. Unlike medications its side effects
are purely positive - one expectant mother I worked with to
feel relaxed during child birth later reported that she was
also more relaxed when flying!
Hypnosis is easy to learn and
every body can benefit. Hypnosis is a safe environment to 'try
out' new behaviours and emotional patterns before you
experience them for real. So the young man can ask a woman out
for a date many times in calm relaxed hypnosis so that by the
time he does it for real it feels real and natural and relaxed.
Sports people who use hypnosis learn new quicker and more
accurately. So hypnosis gives you more control of yourself and
your life, it's natural and gives you instant benefits and it's
a way of 'trying on' and establishing new patterns of emotional
response and behaviour, Hypnosis enables you to develop
yourself as a human being.
