Hypnosis: Frequently Asked Questions

What is Hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a natural state of mind. Daily activities such as daydreaming, driving and not remembering the drive, being completely absorbed in a movie, television or book, are all states of hypnosis. This is called waking hypnosis. In formally induced hypnosis, such as hypnotherapy, an induction is given; the brain waves slow down as the body relaxes. This allows the subconscious mind to become open to direct positive suggestion to assist in the areas that are needed.

Why does Hypnosis work?
While in the conscious waking state, brain waves cycle at approximately 30 cps. Through induction and suggestion, brain waves are slowed down significantly, approximately 3 – 7 cps. When the brain waves slow, a by –pass of the conscious critical faculty (conscious mind) takes place. Suggestions drop down into the subconscious mind and become a part of the belief system.

Many different therapies are used (hypnotherapy) to help facilitate healing, release, and to empower clients in this state.

What does it feel like?
During hypnosis, the body and mind are completely relaxed and tension has left the body. Some feel their body getting heavier, others experience a lightness or may become unaware of their body.

Can I be hypnotized?
Everyone can be hypnotized if it is their will.

Can I be made to do something against my will?
You are in control at all times during hypnosis and have the power to reject any suggestions given to you. Your subconscious mind always protects you. In hypnosis you are able to make positive change very easily because it helps to heighten your sense of control and empowers you to make those changes.

Is hypnosis more effective than pure willpower for eliminating bad habits?
Absolutely! Since we are working with the subconscious mind in hypnosis, it is able to eliminate the undesirable habits more easily than pure willpower. Your conscious mind makes the decision to change it and your subconscious mind works together with the conscious to make that happen.

Can I get stuck in Hypnosis?
No, it is not possible to get stuck in hypnosis. One is fully aware and in control. If an emergency was to take place, you have the ability to exit from hypnosis at any time.

Will I be unconscious?
No, you are always alert and aware of your surroundings.

How many sessions are generally needed to achieve change?
Hypnotherapy is fast and efficient. I generally see clients for one to two sessions, if more are needed the client and hypnotherapist will make that decision together.
