Hypnosis The Science of Conscious and
Unconscious Mind

Have you ever wondered how TV shows and stand-up
acts use hypnosis?, or how hypnosis actually
works? Often hypnosis is considered as
entertainment. However, it is not only
entertainment! Many people are turning to
hypnosis for medical support, including and not
limited to quitting smoking, reducing anxiety,
weight loss, surgery preparation, insomnia,
cancer treatment support and more.

Hypnosis is
Hypnosis is a natural state of mind with numerous
beneficial characteristics. Hypnosis is when we
relax our overactive critical thinking mind.
Therapy while in Hypnosis, or Hypnotherapy
occurs while in the relaxed state of hypnosis
where we selectively focus on a desired outcome,
e.g., slimming down to our ideal body weight,
choosing to breathe fresh clean air (instead of
smoking cigarettes), feeling calm, relaxed,
peaceful and optimistic (instead of anxious and
upset). Envisioning medication zapping all of the
cancer cells in the body. You see, Once the
client (co-therapist) enters into the peaceful
meditative state of trance a hypnotherapist
repeats positive suggestions and imagery
designed in collaboration with the client
(co-therapist), prior to trance induction. These
positive suggestions and images act as
instructions to the subconscious mind. The
subconscious minds job is to create that which
we believe is true. in the 1600s Rene Descartes
said it as I think therefore I am.
How Hypnosis Works?
Many times the conscious mind wants to do
something that the unconscious mind does not
accept fully. Hypnotherapists use the trance
state to relax the critical thinker allowing
access to the subconscious mind for programming
of new desired healthier behaviorskind of like
updating an application on your smartphone.
Hypnotherapy can also be used to help a person
alter their perceptions gradually. For instance,
if a person is suffering with pain, with the help
of hypnosis, one can alter the signal path of
pain in the brain and disrupt it such that pain
is reduced dramatically or even completely
eliminated.

Does it Really Work?
Yes, Hypnotherapy works if the person (client,
co- therapist) is willing to accept the change.
It cannot be used forcefully on anyone. If
someone tries to quit smoking ONLY because of
family pressure, then hypnosis will not cannot
help them, until THEY have made up their mind to
quit. Hypnosis cannot be used to change the way
someone thinks! Hypnosis simply helps initiate
behavioral changes. Hypnosis can also help in
bringing a state of relaxation and keep calm
under stressful conditions. People with stress,
anxiety, grief, or even depression issues can get
relief from these experiences. However, hypnosis
does not claim to cure any disease completely and
is most effective when it is used along with
therapies and lifestyle changes. For long-term,
chronic diseases, it may take a number of
hypnosis sessions to see results. To properly
use hypnosis for medical support work you need to
consult a certified professional medical support
clinical hypnotherapist and follow their
suggestions while actively participating in the
process of designing your personalized road-map
to greater health and wellbeing.
