Some Facts About Hypnosis
Some people have heard or read things about
hypnosis which give a false impression of what
hypnosis really is. Most of this misinformation
comes from the TV or movies or books written
about misuses of hypnosis. We need to remember
that these are produced to entertain and are
not trying to inform people about the truth
of hypnosis. They show hypnosis being
used in ways that it cannot be used, and sometimes,
they distort the truth. Here are some
real facts about hypnosis:
- Going into a state of hypnosis is a
perfectly normal activity. It appears
differently to many people, but most people
describe it as a restful, relaxing, state
where they are still aware and in control.
- The person who is hypnotized is aware
of everything the hypnotist says at all
times while they are experiencing hypnosis.
- You will always awaken from hypnosis
easily, and you remain in control
at all times.
- No person can be hypnotized without
his cooperation and willingness. The
more a person allows themselves to cooperate
and relax, the more benefits they will
receive.
- Some of the cases of hypnosis have shown
what seemed to be miraculous results. Hypnosis
is not a miraculous power, it is merely
a technique that enables your mind to access
and use your own natural healing abilities,
to assist in healing any area of the mind
or body.
- Hypnosis allows your subconscious mind
(inner mind) to accept positive suggestions
that can increase self confidence, self
acceptance, self love and self esteem, to
create success patterns for life, learning
and health. Hypnotic suggestions can
release your unwanted patterns and strengthen
those parts of your personality that you
desire.
- Some misinformed writers have claimed
that hypnosis is dangerous, that it weakens
the will or that it can cause other symptoms
to arise in place of those released by hypnotic
suggestion. The opposite is true!
There has never been a case in the history
of hypnosis where it has caused other symptoms
to arise. Instead of weakening the
will, hypnosis will actually strengthen
the will and improve the mind.
