Hypnosis, contrary to popular belief, is not mind control and neither does it ‘make’ you do things you do not want to do. A hypnotic trance is very real; it is the point that everyone can zone in and out of – the part between waking and dreaming, where you are aware of everything going on around you, and yet somewhat removed from it at the same time. The hypnotic trance is not controlled by the hypnotherapist, but by you; you can terminate the trance whenever you wish.
A hypnotic trance helps to relax you; whilst in a trance your muscles relax, your heart rate slows down, breathing becomes deeper and calmer, your skin warms and energy is released to repair your organs and muscles. Combine this with positive suggestions that address the issues troubling you and you have found a very effective way of resetting your switch.
Hypnotherapy is a way to access your subconscious mind, enabling you to reprogram the way you manage yourself, your emotions and reactions by the use of positive suggestions.
