Hypnosis

Unfortunately this field has been marred by some of the negative affects of the stage Hypnotist. However, Clinical Hypnotherapy is only used as a therapeutic aid, and the reality is far different from the fiction that surrounds it.

Hypnosis is a way of using your subconscious knowledge to sort out deep-seated problems by, by-passing your surface mind, which has a nasty habit of presenting arguments against your achieving specific goals, such as; “I’ve tried that before and I can’t do it!”
Hypnosis provides a bridge between the conscious and unconscious mind thus allowing you to make the changes necessary. Hypnosis is also sometimes called the Alpha State or Trance state: you pass through the alpha state quite naturally at least twice a day-as you are falling asleep and as you wake up.                    

Have you ever found yourself loosing all track of time?  Have you ever day-dreamed? Or whilst reading a book, have you ever found that you have totally immersed yourself into the story and switched off from the outside world?  
If so, then congratulations, you have experienced Trance!
Hypnosis, however, is not the same as sleep. During hypnosis, you are aware of your surroundings at all times. Hearing may also become more acute; however, background noises will not affect your trance state. When you come out of trance you often recall all that has been said.
 
It is important to note that no one can be hypnotised against their will or be made to do things against their will. Some people will go more deeply into trance than others, and most find it gets easier with practice. You are quite capable of bringing yourself out of trance at any time or of rejecting any suggestions which you may feel are inappropriate - hypnotherapy can only be successful if you really want it to work.
