About Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy is using the power of hypnosis to bring about desired change. The mind is like an iceberg in that we are only aware of a small proportion of it.
There are vast untapped resources in our mind that hypnosis can reach to bring about the changes we would like to see in our lives.
What is hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a state of deep relaxation in which the mind is more open to suggestion. You have probably been in a mild hypnotic trance while driving, listening to music or relaxing in the bath. During this state the brain wave pattern changes and deeper parts of the mind become accessible.
How does it work?
The subconscious mind contains all the things we have been told about ourselves, both positive (you’re pretty, you’re clever, you’re kind) and negative (you’re fat, you’re stupid, you’re mean). Notice how the positive ones leave us feeling better and the negative ones lurk around like a bad odour? At its simplest, hypnosis replaces those negative thoughts with positive ones when the mind is at its most receptive. Suggestions can be used to help us smoke less, eat less, have more confidence, overcome phobias, for instance. Because the mind and body are interconnected, suggestions can also be used to help the body heal itself faster.
Hypnotherapists also talk about a superconscious mind which is a store of wisdom and, some would say, our connection with the divine. It is sometimes called our Higher Self. Hypnosis can be used to contact the Higher Self to help with making decisions, to gain self-knowledge, and understand our life purpose.
What about regression?
Because the subconscious contains a record of all our life experience, suggestions to go back in time can be used to uncover traumatic events in childhood that still shape our lives today, for instance someone with a cat allergy discovered it was resolved when they uncovered a childhood memory of being badly scratched by a cat. Even more surprising is that when some people are told to find the earliest event which started a pattern of behaviour they talk about a lifetime previous to this one. When this happens, it is called past-life regression. Some people believe these memories are evidence of reincarnation while others see them as symbolic, like dream images. Regardless of the belief system of the client, working with this material can bring about deep healing.
