About Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy works by bypassing, the usual conscious resistance, and accessing the subconscious mind. By doing this we can begin to change your old limiting beliefs without the usual conscious mind butting in. Suggestions will be used which at one level can generally be understood by the conscious mind but which on the unconscious level will convey something much more powerful, and appropriate to the clients needs.
It is therefore important for anyone experiencing Hypnosis not to try and analyse everything they hear the therapist telling them, as for much of the time, the actual message can only be fully understood by the subconscious inner mind.
My voice will help you relax quickly and easily, using a relaxing tonality and words to help you let go. Using relaxation we can break down the physical tension so that the mental relaxation can follow. While the conscious mind is distracted powerful positive suggestions can be given for your betterment. After a short period of time the positive messages begin to gain a solid foundation, and start to cancel out the old negative beliefs. Visualisation techniques will also be used to help change your own perceptions of your old limiting thoughts.
No. There has never ever been a serious case of anyone who has been stuck in Hypnosis, and just recently a judge ruled that there was no evidence at all that Hypnosis is in any way dangerous to persons in any way shape or form. In fact we all go in naturally induced Trances every day, when driving, watching TV, or just day- dreaming, all Hypnosis does is utilise that state to achieve the required change that the client wants.
Everybody who wants to be hypnotised can be, it has nothing to do with whether you’re strong minded or not, it’s about the persons willingness to work with me to achieve the results what they want. Even if a person is a bit skeptical it doesn’t matter as its only natural, what does matter is that the person wants it to work with me and will give it his/her best shot to make it work.
I recently watched a news report where they said that there are roughly 5000 deaths every year in the UK due to medical blunders. Yet we all trust the doctors and surgeons when we go into hospital don’t we. In contrast there has NEVER been ANY deaths due to hypnosis in its entire history. In fact I have never heard of any case of negative side effects due to hypnotherapy in my entire time in this profession. Not many professions can say that! With that in mind I think its fair to say that hypnotherapy is probably one of the safest forms of treatment known.
The only feeling you have when you are Hypnotised, is a feeling of relaxation. At no time will you ever feel out of control, under my control or under anything!! In fact you are always aware of where you are, what I am saying and you are always in control throughout the whole time. Rather than Hypnosis being a magic spell it is simply an effective clinical procedure. In fact all Hypnosis is self Hypnosis, You simply allow your self to let go and just relax. Forget about the stage Hypnotists they’re nothing to do with us!
Many moons ago when I struggled with anxiety, low self confidence and depression I used Hypnotherapy recordings with great success. They really helped me. To date I’ve made hundreds of recordings and helped 1000’s of people. If they didn’t work I’d be out of business years ago.
Im my opinion they are as effective as 1-2-1 therapy with a Hypnotherapist .
