“Will I be made to say things that I don’t want to?”
These are some of the questions that I am often asked concerning Hypnosis and its effects; I fully understandwhy people have these fears and concerns because most people’s idea of hypnotherapy is stage hypnotism where volunteers are made to behave unnaturally.
However, Clinical Hypnotherapy is completely different from stage hypnotism because it is a serious approach focusing on healing real psychological problems. Clinical Hypnosis has been successfully used as a form of therapy for many years and was approved by the British Medical Association during the 1950s. During Clinical Hypnosis you enter into a very calm, relaxed state where you are always in charge of the situation – you know and choose what you say and you can always bring yourself out of hypnosis at any time. Clients normally describe the experience as the same feeling they have before they fall asleep.
This is because the fully conscious mind operates in the Beta range of 14-35 Hz while the hypnotic state occurs when the majority of brain activity is at a much slower rate within the Alpha range of 8-13 Hz. Everyone enters the Alpha range before falling into the sleep state which is why most people describe the experience of hypnosis in this way.
While in the hypnotic state we are able to bypass all the questioning and judging tendencies of the conscious mind and this allows us to reprogram the subconscious mind to thinking in a more positive and empowering way, leading to positive changes for the client.
Most people describe the state of hypnosis as the most relaxed they have ever been and almost everyone notices positive changes after their first session.
