HOW IT WORKS
ABOUT HYPNOTHERAPY
Understanding Hypnosis
Have you ever glanced at the clock while engrossed in a project, only to realize hours have flown by? Or perhaps you've been driving a familiar route, completely absorbed in thought and suddenly realize you've missed your turn. Maybe you’ve gotten so lost in a book or daydream that the world around you fades away? These everyday experiences are glimpses into hypnosis. Hypnosis isn't some mysterious force, but rather a naturally focused state that you encounter more often than you realize on a daily basis.
The Model of the Mind: A Brief Look
To understand hypnosis better, let's consider the Model of the Mind. Imagine your mind as a magnificent tree. The visible crown of leaves and branches represents your conscious mind, the analytical part that constantly analyzes and judges information from the world around you. It's like the bright lights on a stage – logical, analytical, and rational. This conscious mind is responsible for short-term memory and only influences about 5-10% of our overall behavior.
Beneath the surface lies the vast network of roots – the subconscious mind. This unseen powerhouse stores emotions, memories, and deeply held beliefs, often influencing our behaviors and reactions without our conscious awareness. The subconscious mind is illogical, relying more on emotions and creative intuition. It holds onto long-term memories and shapes a significant portion of our lives – up to 90-95% of our behavior.
During hypnosis, your conscious mind, the analytical part that constantly analyzes and judges, takes a temporary backseat. Think of it like dimming the lights in a room. While it doesn't disappear entirely, the focus shifts. This allows your subconscious mind, a vast reservoir of emotions, memories, and deeply held beliefs, to step into the spotlight. It's like opening a hidden door, revealing a treasure trove of potential for positive change.
HYPNOSIS IS SIMPLY BEING SUGGESTABLE
TO POSITIVE THOUGHTS
How it Works
So, how do we reach this state of focused relaxation? As a skilled hypnotherapist, I can guide you into this relaxed state using calming language and imagery. It might involve focusing on your breath, imagining a calming scene, or simply allowing your body to become heavy and still. As your conscious mind becomes more relaxed and less critical, the doorway to your subconscious mind gently opens. In this state of heightened focus and receptivity, your subconscious mind is more receptive to positive suggestions. Hypnosis is a completely safe and collaborative practice designed to work with you where you remain in complete control throughout the session.
Here's where positive change can take root. In this state of focused attention, your subconscious becomes more receptive to suggestions that resonate with your goals. Just as a strong root system nourishes a tree, these suggestions can act as powerful tools to cultivate positive change and growth.
The Role of Belief
Belief and desire are the engines of hypnosis. Your readiness and belief in the process plays a crucial role in how effectively hypnosis can influence your subconscious mind. When positive suggestions are offered during hypnosis and align with your conscious desire for change, they have a greater chance of being successfully received and acted upon by your subconscious.
This is because belief creates a state of receptivity.
Just like a radio tuned to a specific frequency, a mind that believes in hypnosis becomes more open to suggestions that resonate with its conscious goals. The subconscious mind is then more receptive to these positive messages, allowing them to target those "invisible things" holding you back.
I am here to guide you with developing powerful suggestions that resonate with your healing goals. These suggestions will empower you to rewrite the story your subconscious has been telling you, creating a new narrative free from those limitations.
