What is hypnotherapy?
Hypnotherapy is the use of hypnosis as a means of communicating with the subconscious mind to bring about therapeutic change.
The ethical hypnotherapist will be a professionally trained hypnotist and therapist who acts as a facilitator, to help clients to help themselves.
As in any therapeutic relationship,for hypnotherapy to be effective and beneficial a combination of trust and rapport must be present.
About 85% of the population are believed to be susceptable to hypnosis (if they want to be) and actually only a light depth of trance is needed for many therapeutic purposes.
Hypnotherapy works as a wonderful adjunct to other types of therapy such as cognitive behavoural therapy and Neurolinguistic programming because whatever action we take is first of all determined by our thoughts, so if we change our thoughts, we can change the way we behave. The subconscious mind does not like changes but in hypnosis it can be persuaded to make them once it realizes that they are beneficial.
Whatever you want in life, it is important to have a goal. Thoughts have a boomerang effect. If we think negative thoughts, then we attract negative things happening to us. Likewise, if we visualize good things then we attract the positive. The more powerful and intense a thought is, then the more powerful and intense the outcome will be.
