Imagine being able to harness the power of your subconscious mind to focus on self-improvement, changing negative patterns and habits so that you are making healthier choices. Hypnotherapy helps you to “rewire” old thoughts. Through guided suggestion and visualization, hypnotherapy can help with weight loss, food issues, smoking cessation, addictive behaviors, anxiety, depression, lack of self-confidence, loss/grief, insomnia, pain management, phobias, and so much more. Hypnotherapy can help you to overcome your personal challenges, whatever they might be.
When we access the subconscious mind, as we do through
hypnotherapy, we can use the power of suggestion to create new
neuropathways in the brain to make positive changes and eliminate
negative thoughts and habits.
Research studies have shown that hypnotherapy is powerful and effective. Doctors at Harvard Medical School have done volumes of studies proving the positive effects that hypnotherapy has on the brain and on the mind-body connection. They have been able to show that the brain is capable of turning down pain in studies where they have performed surgical procedures without anesthesia, and they have also proven that the body can heal more quickly after surgery through the power of hypnotic suggestion.
All of our behaviors are learned behaviors – we learned them over time through repetition or “wow events”. The level of trance that hypnotherapy creates allows the powerful subconscious mind to communicate with the conscious mind to eliminate learned habits that no longer serve us. We all experience trance in some form or another on a daily basis, without even realizing it. Have you ever driven to a familiar place and seemingly “zoned out” … having arrived at your destination and wondered how you got there safely? Have you ever been so absorbed in a book or movie that you lost all perspective of what was going on around you, or wandered into a daydream during a business meeting, class or in the checkout line at a grocery store? Each of these examples is a form of trance or altered state of consciousness. This is the same level of trance used in hypnotherapy. The client is not asleep and always remains in complete control. A client is always able to reject suggestions made in hypnotherapy and will only accept suggestions that they want to accept. A client cannot be hypnotized to do something that he does not want to do.
Hypnotherapy is becoming mainstream, and many doctors are now recommending hypnotherapy to their patients as an effective and powerful tool toward achieving overall health and wellness – nurturing mind, body and spirit.
