What is Hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a natural state, comparable
to that of daydreaming, which is induced by the concentration on a
single idea or concept.
Generally there is no such thing as a
‘hypnotised feeling’ and contrary to popular belief we do not ‘lose
control’ or awareness of what we are doing.

How does
Hypnotherapy work? |
| |
|
Hypnotherapy
uses hypnosis combined with behavioural and cognitive therapies to
help gain fresh attitudes and new ways of thinking about things.
This is achieved by bypassing the conscious mind, which is where all
our logical thought processes take place and where there is the most
resistance to change, in order to access the opinions stored in the
subconscious. In effect you are given the opportunity to reassess
any faulty programming that you may have received in the past in
order to create a positive new approach. |

Logically you may already know how to get better, you know what
actions or changes need to be made that will resolve your problem.
You know that being overweight is resolved by eating different foods
and exercising more. You know that stress and anxiety respond well
to positive attitudes, relaxation and social activities—and to give
up smoking you need to stop smoking cigarettes!
But knowing these things does
not mean that you will be able to do them.
The issue is that your problem does not
exist in the intellectual part of your mind which understands these
things but the subconscious. The subconscious is either responding
to inappropriate instinctive behaviour patterns or faulty
programming that we learnt as a child.
Hypnotherapy is able to communicate
with the subconscious using a language it understands—that of image
rather than words alone, and emotions rather than logic.
The intellectual part of the brain is
then able to deal with the problem free from the inappropriate
subconscious response.
