What does hypnosis feel like?

During hypnosis you are pleasantly relaxed and your eyes are closed. It is a naturally occurring state of mind. You can even go into a light hypnotic trance yourself by imagining a relaxing scene or a happy memory in detail. In a deeper state your awareness is heightened and your vision is more focused and accurate.

 

Can anyone be hypnotised?

Most people are susceptible to hypnosis just to differing degrees, only a small percentage of the population are low in susceptibility, and there are validated tools from Harvard and Stanford Universities to measure one’s susceptibility. The majority of people can be hypnotised. However no one can be hypnotised against their will (only in the movies!).

 

 

Is it possible to get stuck in hypnosis?

Hypnosis is often misunderstood as a strange sleep like state, where the subject can be controlled by the therapist. This is not the case. Hypnotherapy is a safe, relaxing yet powerful tool. The hypnotic state is something we all encounter everyday. In essence it is the same state you are in when you are reading a book, watching television or even when driving along a familier route. Where you are relaxed but always in control.

 

Will I be asleep or unconscious?

People can sometimes look like they are asleep or unconscious whilst in trance. Actually your awareness is heightened by trance which is a highly absorbed state of mind experienced by people when they meditate.

 

 

Is Hypnosis safe, will I be vulnerable when I am hypnotised?

These fears are all myths brought about by television and movies. You would not accept any suggestions that go against your moral or ethical beliefs. Hypnosis was approved by the UK’s leading professional medical body. The BMA reviewed the practice of clinical hypnosis in 1955 and declared it an integrative practice, one that can be incorporated alongside standard medical disciplines. It endorsed the practice of hypnosis in medical school education. There are no harmful side-effects.

 

What is NLP (neuro-linguistic-programming)?

It is the language of the mind which explains how thoughts actions and feelings work together to produce an experience. It is based on the study of human excellence and promotes a powerful and practical approach to positive change. Put simply it is rather like having an instruction manual for how the mind works. Trained NLP practitioners can help;
people to relieve traumas
have more positive feelings
perform better at work
change life long habits
resolve inner conflicts

When things don’t work most people just continue doing the same things only usually louder and harder. If you don’t want to see the same road then take a different direction, if you want to see something different then do something different. NLP can help you find your goals and know how to achieve them.
