What Hypnosis can do for you

How can this natural process help me?

Modern Hypnosis techniques are addressed towards the disrupting and replacing of behaviours and thought patterns in individuals.  As Psychological research invests more and more time into finding out how we work, Hypnosis can uncover more and more effective ways of facilitating change from one state to another, be it from weak to strong, or from strong to stronger.

Replace the Bad

Any learnt habit, from over-eating, under-exercising, drinking, smoking, worrying, panicking, becoming overly angry and a host of other behaviours can be addressed and altered in the hypnotic state.  If a pathway has been created in the mind that has become damaging or inappropriate, it can be changed to one that is altogether more 'you'.  This can have knock-on effects on the rest of a person's life, as it is often a single thing that holds somebody back from living a more fulfilling life.

Strengthen the Good With CBT & Hypnosis

It's not always the bad habits and processes that have to be replaced.  If Hypnosis can be used to get rid of the bad and to create new pathways in the mind, then it can also be used to strengthen those that are already there: the positive, affirming and essential parts of who you are.  If you are already good at something and want to get even better, Hypnosis can anchor improvements in your mind developed through changing the way you think about the same things using CBT, helping you to be better at skills, talents, approaches to situations, relationships and your everyday & your extraordinary life.

What Cannot be done with Hypnosis?

There are claims from hypnotherapists around the World who say that virtually anything is possible, who claim that because the mind controls the body completely, even extreme physical changes are possible. Hypnosis has long been used for surgical anesthesia, so there is a huge database of evidence that supports the fact that the mind has a direct influence and control on the body.

We change physically as we grow, and those changes come from the brain and other organs throughout the body.  There is anecdotal evidence and increasing scientific research pointing to a much closer cause and effect relationship between the mind and the body, but time will tell as to what can be affected by thought alone.  Visitors who have a deeper interest in this area might like to read 'A Heart Speaks' by the Cardiologist Dr. Mimi Guarneri.  An insight into how the mind can help heal the body from a front-line cardiac surgeon.

Hypnosis is a fascinating state capable of many benevolent changes to an individual.  The limits of its usefulness and application have not been found yet, and what may have seemed impossible yesterday is routine today.  Perhaps what seems impossible today will be a matter of course tomorrow; the future is unwritten.
