Hypnosis, defined by the United States
government reads as follows:
The bypass of the critical factor of the conscious mind and the
establishment of acceptable selective thinking.
Now, what this means is this. The
conscious mind gathers information from the outside world and will
compare this information with information and beliefs stored in the
subconscious mind. The conscious mind will then analyze this information
to see if there is any conflict between the two. If there is already
information or a strong belief in the subconscious mind that is not of
the same nature of this new information, the critical factor of the
conscious mind will block and refuse this new information. Thus,
hypnosis is used to bypass the critical factor of the conscious mind to
reach the subconscious mind directly. Just simple conscious thought is
not enough to reach the subconscious mind and make the changes that you
would like.
Now, the establishment of acceptable
selective thinking is this. Once the subconscious mind has been reached
and the critical factor is bypassed new and powerful suggestions can be
accepted into the subconscious mind. Because hypnosis is a direct link
to the subconscious mind, these suggestions, when compounded will
dominate old information and negative beliefs.
What you can expect from hypnosis is a
heightened state of awareness with extremely powerful, lasting and rapid
transformations. This is very exciting because in this state of mind
negative beliefs can be reversed to positive, strong and life changing
beliefs. We know now, how much a belief can effect the outcome of our
lives. A negative belief can easily hold you back from the things other
people do everyday and a positive belief can powerfully give you the
ability to overcome any obstacle, exceeding even your own levels of a
happy successful life.
Hypnosis is nothing mystical or magical.
Hypnosis is actually a very powerful and natural state of mind, which
every single person in the world can achieve. Even you can access this
heightened state of awareness very easily. With the help of
RapidTransformations, a highly qualified and advanced hypnotherapist
will guide you to this beautiful state of mind and through the changes
you need. Remember a hypnotherapist is only a guide. The actual power of
change is within you. Can you imagine the power to present your body as
beautiful and sexually attractive, enhancing those feelings to the
ultimate magnetic strength, having the relationship you've always
dreamed of. Can you imagine the power to establish higher status through
wealth and success, living the happy and healthy life free of stress and
debt. With this realization, you have made the best choice you could
ever make. Don't wait. The time is NOW and the opportunity is HERE! For many years,
hypnosis was primarily associated with the theatre or music hall, where stage
hypnotists selected members of the audience and put them into a trance. Often
the subjects were persuaded to act out or to confess to unconscious longings or
fears. Not surprisingly, hypnosis developed an unsavory reputation in the public
mind and in the medical profession. Now, however, hypnosis is being re-evaluated
and is seen by many as a technique that has a useful place in a diverse range of
medical, psychological and investigative pursuits.
Just as medicine combines
both art and science, so does hypnotherapy.
Although hypnosis has
existed for hundreds, if not thousands of years...the modern medical use of
hypnotherapy...as sanctioned by the American Medical Association...achieved its
formal recognition in 1958.
The fascination and
curiosity surrounding hypnosis has spanned over two hundred years. In an attempt
to explain this incredible phenomenon, several theories emerged early on in this
scientific quest, contributing to common misconceptions about hypnosis.
In the late 1700s, Franz
Anton Mesmer believed that man could redistribute the quasi-magnetic fluid,
existing in all humans, to bring about healing. Shortly after the rise of
Mesmer's theory, James Braid, a Scottish surgeon working in Manchester, England
coined the term "hypnosis".
Although the word "hypnosis"
comes from the Greek word "sleep", the hypnotized individual is not unconscious,
asleep or any other such thing. In fact while an individual is hypnotized he or
she is more alert than ever.
After a session of
hypnotherapy most clients express feelings of profound relaxation and peace.
Hypnosis is a feeling that one must experience to fully appreciate.
During the 19th century,
medical scientists attempted to establish a link between hypnosis and various
pathological states. It was not until the late 1800s that theorists began to
suggest that the subject controlled hypnosis.
In 1882, Hippolyte Bernheim,
a professor of medicine at the University of Nancy, France put forth the idea
that while under hypnosis all of the power resides in the patient. Once
considered a technique involving the surrender of the subject to the will of the
hypnotist, it is now understood that the full cooperation of the subject is
required for an effective hypnotism.
By the 1920s psychologists,
such as Yale Professor Clark L. Hull, conducted experimental investigations in
hypnosis. Hull demystified the technique by proposing that hypnosis was
essentially a normal part of human nature. The most important factor involved in
hypnosis, Hull maintained, was the subject's imagination.
Recently, using the latest
state-of-the-art brain monitoring system, Neuropsychologist, Pierre Rainville,
from the University of Montreal, established that the brain experiences several
physiological changes while under hypnosis, namely the production of mental
images, sustained attention and relaxation.
Modern hypnosis has evolved
into a well-respected practice and today it is used by certified
hypnotherapists, doctors, psychologists and law enforcement. This technique is
utilized in a variety of ways, for instance, pain management, stress-related
disorders, anesthesia, psychotherapy and memory recall. It is also used the
management of a wide range of phobic, anxiety and other psychological disorders.
Hypnotherapy is completely
safe and helpful. It is often used in the control of pain, cancer treatments,
stress disorders and in cases where other medical practices would be
inadvisable, such as the anesthetic of choice with patients with severe heart
disease.
Hypnotherapy is also very
useful in areas where there are few other effective medical treatments...other
than drugs...such as stress reduction, sexual problems, phobias, insomnia,
smoking cessation, weight loss and lack of motivation. Hypnotherapy is useful in
areas of law, sometimes being the only way vital pieces of evidence are
discovered.
If you, or you doctor, ever
thought that your problem is "all in your head", then hypnotherapy may be your
ideal solution. If your mind created your problem, then your mind can also be
used to make you well.
The only people who cannot
be hypnotized to a depth that will be helpful are the feeble-minded, the insane
and the senile. Also very young children who have not yet developed sufficient
mind power cannot be hypnotized...since it does take mind power to use hypnosis.
Hypnotherapy usually saves a
client time. As you know, time is money. People who can be helped by
hypnotherapy will see changes rapidly. Of course, the client should be strongly
motivated and have a strong desire to change.
Since hypnosis is a natural
state of mind, you do not have to work hard for hypnotherapy to be effective. In
fact just the opposite is true.
The first rule anyone should
learn about hypnosis is this: The harder you TRY, the more you fail. So don't
TRY to be hypnotized...simply remain passive and LET IT HAPPEN. Of course the
hypnotized individual is expected to concentrate on the suggestions that are
presented by the therapist and not criticize them or analyze "How am I doing?"
Simply WANT it
to happen. EXPECT it to happen. LET it happen...and it WILL happen!
Hypnotherapy is a natural
mental process. Kenneth Grossman combines this mental process with the power of
suggestion polished to a glistening smoothness. Suggestions are the heart of any
hypnosis session. They come at a time when you are most responsive. They arouse
your deep sub-conscious mind to achieve the desired results.
Whether it is eliminating
the smoking habit, losing weight and getting into great shape, hitting a golf
ball with more concentration than you ever imagined...or overcoming the fear of
rejection in a sales situation...or actually enjoying your next visit to the
dentist...hypnotherapy can help you achieve results faster that you ever dreamed
possible.
Hypnotherapy is a pleasant and enjoyable way to unlock the
potential of your sub-conscious mind. Thank you for visiting our web site. We
