...
is a relaxing, naturally occurring state of mind which happens to us every
day. Each time we read a good book, float off into a daydream or see a great
movie we are in a natural state of hypnosis.
Change is difficult sometimes because most habits, beliefs and attitudes are maintained and stored in the unconscious mind and most people are trying to change consciously!
Have you ever had the experience of making up your mind to do something and then later found yourself in your old patterns? How about making New Year's resolutions that only last a few days!
Often
the unconscious and conscious minds
work in totally separate ways and don't communicate with each other. The unconscious communicates
differently than the conscious mind,
so you can't just tell it what to do in the regular way and expect to get
the results you want!
If instructed properly, your unconscious mind is the best learning 'machine'
that has ever existed. After all, do you have to consciously tell your heart
to beat? Or your body to repair itself while you sleep?
For thousands of years
... people have recognised the power of hypnosis to
enhance learning, heal emotional scars, improve performance, change habits
and speed up the body's own healing process.
However, it was not until the 1950's that science began recognising and understanding
the immense power of the unconscious mind. Orthodox medicine is now beginning
to recognise the major role that unconscious or 'psychological' factors play
in both illness and in healing.
During hypnosis, direct communication with your unconscious mind can be established. You remain in total control of the situation. The therapist merely guides your mind and body through hypnotic trance, to accept change much more readily. This results in more productive patterns, ideas, attitudes and therefore actions.
