What is Hypnosis?

Hypnotherapy is a wonderful way of using hypnosis techniques to resolve a whole range of issues and problems, including stress, phobias, pain and anxiety.

Hypnosis as such doesn’t achieve anything of itself: it’s what happens when you go into that wonderful, relaxed state that creates the amazing results. It is an incredibly relaxing experience with no side effects, or after effects.

With hypnotism you cannot be made to do anything against your will, or your moral and ethical standards. It is merely a natural phenomenon that you experience many times during your day - for example, when watching a television programme or reading a good book we all naturally drift in and out of awareness.

Hypnosis results in a wonderfully relaxed state, but you are always in total control. It is not sleep, although if you’re listening to the hypnosis recordings when you’re tired you may well drop off to sleep.

Think about the changes you want to make. You’ve probably succeeded for a while in changing habits, for instance, but old behaviours eventually come back. This is because you have not addressed the underlying patterns that were causing your behaviour in the first place.

In hypnosis you can easily let those patterns go and replace them with powerful, beneficial suggestions that fully support the new life you aspire to.

Hypnotherapy FAQs

What is hypnotherapy?

Hypnotherapy is the therapeutic application of hypnosis as a wonderful tool to support beneficial change. It is used in many situations including stress relief, pain management including childbirth and resolving phobias and anxiety. Hypnosis as such doesn't actually achieve anything: it's what happens when the hypnotherapist puts you in that wonderful, relaxed state that creates the amazing results. It is an incredibly relaxing experience with no side effects or after effects.

Think about your weight loss goals. You've probably succeeded in losing weight for a while but the old behaviours eventually come back, don't they? This is because you haven't sorted the underlying patterns that are causing you to behave this way.

In hypnosis we are able to help you to easily let those self-sabotaging patterns of behaviour go, and support your successful weight loss with new positive ways of thinking and feeling about yourself.

Hypnotherapy is the third key therapeutic tool we use with our clients in face to face sessions. For this book we have specially recorded three powerful hypnosis sequences that you can download via your computer as MP3s. We recommend you listen to one every day while you are focussing on losing weight.

What must I do before listening to the hypnosis audio tracks?

Find a quiet place where you are able to relax without interruption. All the audio tracks are less than 20 minutes long. If possible, turn off the telephone, dim the lights or draw the curtains.

Are there some people who can’t be hypnotised?

No. It’s a natural process. Anyone who can follow simple instructions can be hypnotised.

What if I go to sleep?

It’s fine. If you do doze off while listening to the hypnotherapy audio tracks, the positive suggestions will still go deeply into your subconscious mind and changes can take place. Equally, if you are unexpectedly required to return to full awareness while listening to the audio tracks, you will be alert and feel fully awake, without any grogginess.

What will it feel like?

There is no such thing as a hypnotised feeling. In hypnosis, you will feel exactly the same as you would if you were engrossed in a book or absorbed in an interesting movie. It is simply a very relaxed feeling that most people truly enjoy, and sometimes wish they didn’t have to leave behind.

Will I lose control listening to these audios?

No. You are always completely in control of your body, and thoughts. Hypnosis is absolutely safe and has been used for a long time by dentists, doctors and psychotherapists. It is a proven therapeutic aid. 

How does hypnosis help with making changes in how I think and feel about myself?

When you are in a lovely relaxed state, your mind is much more receptive to positive suggestions. It  then goes on to make the desired changes that you are seeking. When you’re listening to hypnosis recordings it helps to use the power of your imagination to supercharge all the beneficial affects.
