Hypnotherapy

What is Hypnotherapy?

A relaxed, focused state of concentration. Hypnotherapy means the use of trance and suggestion to adjust habits of thought, feeling and behaviour.

How is Hypnotherapy different from Hypnosis?

Hypnosis is the process of inducing trance. It is a pleasant state of mind, similar to daydreaming, in which you become very receptive to proper suggestions. Hypnotherapy is the use of hypnosis for the purpose of self-improvement or for therapeutic goals. Hypnotherapy speaks directly to your subconscious mind, an immense reservoir of potential. It’s a safe, natural experience, and it’s the key to successful behaviour modification. It’s a gentle way to get faster results than most traditional techniques.

How can Hypnotherapy help you?

By facilitating change, discovering and accessing creative, unlimited potential, by releasing negative or limiting habits, identifying the stressors that trigger negative behaviour or feelings and by managing the internal processing of stress and releasing its negative effects.

The truth about Hypnosis is this:

It can be the one most important tool to change the way your mind experiences your world. If there ever was a magic wand, that could help you change anything about your life, your health or your behaviour, this might be it.

Good Hypnotherapists know how to gently release blocks and fears and create a new inner belief that will set the wheels in motion to make changes in the way you think, feel and behave.

The depths of hypnosis can be divided into three levels: light, medium and deep and varies with each person. The lightest level is sufficient to break most habits. The most important factors are your motivation and ability to accept and follow the suggestions.

Most people can achieve a state of hypnosis. If you can focus your attention and use your imagination, hypnosis will probably occur quickly. For varying reasons, some people do require some additional time and practice.

You cannot be hypnotised against your will. If you do not want to experience hypnosis – you won’t.
