Hypnotherapy

"Find your freedom and peace of mind again"

Hypnotherapy uses guided relaxation to help individuals to achieve a state of focused attention, heightened awareness, and increased suggestibility, to help them effectively

P dealt with a variety of concerns in the recent past, childhood, while in the womb, or even what is believed to be memories of past lives, for many mental, psychosomatic, and physical disorders.

For example, through the use of various hypnotic techniques, an adult patient may mentally voyage back to a point in youth in the current life or a past life that was particularly troublesome, allowing the healing of old emotional wounds. Another patient can be led to understand that emotional pain has been converted to physical pain and that the pain can be eliminated once the source is addressed. Or, a person suffering from chronic pain can be taught to control the pain without the use of medications.

Emotional and psychological wounds could be result of

• One-time events, such as an accident, injury, or a violent attack, separation from parents especially mother, especially if it was unexpected or happened in childhood.
• Ongoing, relentless stress, such as living in a crime-ridden neighborhood, battling a life-threatening illness, or experiencing traumatic events that occur repeatedly, such as bullying, domestic violence, or childhood neglect.
• Commonly overlooked causes, such as surgery (especially in the first 3 years of life), the sudden death of someone close, the breakup of a significant relationship, or a humiliating or deeply disappointing experience. Untreated Trauma, grief, and distress can result in a severe, long-lasting effect and a big impact on your future health. A sense of fear and helplessness carries over into the future, setting the stage for further trauma. Our bodies too remember trauma and abuse — quite literally. Unhealed emotional and psychological wounds may often result in negative personality changes with serious individual and social consequences.

How does hypnosis work?

During hypnosis, a trained hypnotist or hypnotherapist induces a state of intense concentration or focused attention. This is a guided process with verbal cues and repetition. The trance-like state you enter may appear similar to sleep in many ways, but you're fully aware of what's going on.

Sometimes, the person's attention is so focused while in this state that anything going on around the person is temporarily blocked out or ignored.

A trance can be induced in a number of ways.

Normal daily activities that require repetitive movements and little awareness may induce trancelike states A hypnotic 'trance' can be brought about by giving a willing participant instructions to focus on the hypnotist's voice, to concentrate their attention, and to pay attention to their inner mental world (this is called a hypnotic induction).

There is this sense of distance from where you are; the passage of time gets distorted and often you feel a pleasant, almost euphoric state of peace. The depth of a hypnotic trance varies, it can be very light or extremely deep. ... Hypnosis does feel very nice and relaxing, almost like taking a nap yet being able to talk with eyes closed.

Contrary to how hypnosis is sometimes portrayed in movies or on television, you don't lose control over your behavior while under hypnosis. Also, you generally remain aware of and remember what happens during hypnosis.

Clinical hypnosis is a non-invasive, non drug treatment that can speed healing of wounds and other conditions and could lead to fewer visits to doctors' offices and faster return to normal activities.

Most clinicians now agree it can be a powerful, effective therapeutic technique for a wide range of conditions because the mind can influence healing of the body.

Hypnotherapy systematically leads your conscious mind to deep relaxation, so that you can access your subconscious mind which is the centre of all your feelings, habits, and memories.

This allows deeper thoughts and feelings to come to the surface, helping you locate and essentially become uninterested with memories of past experiences to make the positive and permanent changes you desire.

E.g.

The conscious mind knows that there is no logical reason to be afraid of spiders, for example, but the subconscious mind has attached a fear to the spider, and the subconscious fear overrides it.

By desensitizing old memories and habits–things you may not know are there, but that get in your way, that have emotionally blocked you for years–and creating positive responses and actions you can achieve permanent changes to enable yourself to productively handle situations that would usually cause intense moments of stress or fear.

This therapy is used to treat Depression, anxiety, phobias, asthma, psoriasis, eczema, allergies, migraine, de-addiction, sexual dysfunction, desired spontaneous behaviours, or any undesired habits. It can be used to help improve sleep disorders, relationship issues and communication problems, pain management, weight management, release and heal traumas, deal with grief and much more.

Hypnotherapists can also help students to get rid of exam fear and anxiety, improve focus, concentration and performance.
