What is hypnosis?

The word hypnosis may at first make you think of the embarrassing pranks of stage hypnotists or the frightening prospects of mind control.  So it is natural to ask what is hypnosis.    It may surprise you to learn that hypnosis describes a natural state that we all experience daily.

This kind of everyday hypnosis can take the form of being absorbed in work, a book or movie or in activities such as driving, playing a game or daydreaming. The sense of being “in the zone” that many athletes and artists speak about, also comes under the umbrella of everyday hypnosis. 

Hypnotherapy or hypnosis therapy harnesses this natural ability to help you transform your life for the better. Hypnosis serves you in hypnotherapy. During a hypnotherapy session you are gently guided into this powerful state of mind where you can more readily hear suggestions to enhance your life. You take away only what you want and need from the sessions.

As well as being able to help you improve your physical health, emotional well-being and assist you in personal development, most people find the process of hypnosis relaxing and pleasurable.   It is often used to help people stop smoking, stress reduction or for weight loss.

The benefits of hypnotherapy are often cited in the media and the American Medical Association, American Psychological Association, the American Dental Association and respected medical journals, The New England Medical Journal and The Lancet, have all acknowledged the merit and benefits of hypnosis, hypnotherapy and their uses.
