Hypnosis is safe and effective in treating issues having to do with anxiety, weight loss, smoking cessation, self-esteem, anxiety and many other emotional and medical complaints. Hypnosis is used by many healthcare professionals including doctors, nurses, psychotherapists and dentists. Hypnosis literally means "sleep." This is a very poor definition because hypnotists decades ago misunderstood what was taking place in their subjects' minds. People confuse what they think is sleep because most hypnotherapists use a closed eye trance for relaxation.Hypnosis can be described as a "narrowing focus of attention" which is now the acceptable and real definition of the state of hypnosis. It can also be considered as "dissociation" or "association" in certain instances. For example, you can learn to "dissociate" driving a car with smoking so that you no longer smoke when driving.Our conscious minds hold what is referred to as the critical factor. This portion of your mind is the initial receiver of information at any given time. During the hypnosis state (narrowing focus of attention), I can communicate with you while you are using significantly less critical thought (questioning the message) to evaluate the message than you would normally.If you have ever been watching a movie and forgot about your surroundings you've experienced a hypnotic trance. If you have ever driven from point A to point B and you don't remember much in between, you've experienced a hypnotic trance.Hypnotherapy is not a passive process. You might be given assignments, such as listening to a self-hypnosis CD, journaling, or completing workbook exercises in order to help facilitate the changes you desire. Your success depends upon how much effort you put into the process with Ms. Hale and at home. As with anything else, this means you will need to commit to change, be consistent, and persevere. Hypnotherapy has been successfully used to help relieve emotional and physical challenges such as anxiety, pain and addictions. Non-conscious beliefs are often uncovered so that new solutions can be formed and utilized in order to help you work toward achieving what you desire most.
