Several Reasons Why You Need Hypnosis As Your Friend

Believe the hype or think for yourself

For too long hypnosis has had a bad or 'difficult' press. If a person doesn't understand something they have 3 options open to them.

1) They might be sceptical and therefore save the trouble of looking further and possibly benefiting.

2) They may conclude it is dangerous and to be avoided at all costs.

3) They may spend time discovering the truth behind the hype.

If you don't know much about a topic it's easy to be suspicious. Some people assume hypnosis is akin to a carnival side show, others consider it mystic mumbo jumbo or 'mind control.' For those who look beyond the hype the truth is far more illuminating.

The most powerful tool you possess

There are potentially huge benefits for those who use hypnosis as part of everyday life. When you understand hypnosis you start to see its potential to improve human performance in the physical, emotional and intellectual realms. For me, rumour, gossip and suspicion weren't good enough.

I determined to learn all I could about hypnosis - I learned every fact and practised every technique under the sun. I took several training courses - some good, some terrible. I invested thousands of hours of devoted study to hypnosis and discovered just what is possible. I hypnotised friends, neighbours and work colleagues. Hypnosis greatly changed things for me on a personal level.

How hypnosis helped me

I used to be shy. Thanks to hypnosis I can now talk to thousands at a time and can approach anybody calmly and confidently.

I used to have poor concentration and procrastinate; thanks to hypnosis I can instantly motivate myself.

I used to find physical work outs and exercise exhausting but because of hypnosis I am now in the best shape of my life.

Incidentally I also stopped myself blushing with hypnosis. Now if ever I have a difficult call or conversation coming up, something I may naturally feel reluctant to do (you know the kind of thing) I spontaneously self hypnotise and rehearse the upcoming situation feeling good, with myself remaining calm. In this way I habitually set my own emotional 'blue prints' for up coming situations. Having said that it's naturally that some people have concerns or half digested 'hand me down' ideas regarding hypnosis. A common one is the one about 'mind control.' However what does this really mean?

Why you are more in control of yourself in hypnosis

If someone expresses concerns about being 'controlled' in hypnosis what they mean is they don't want to be like a robot, an automaton that is forced to obey the every whim of the hypnotist. We can't help but influence others but we don't control them. To understand why you need to understand hypnosis better.

So what is hypnosis like?

Hypnosis isn't like a coma. It's not unconsciousness - more a subtle shifting of consciousness. In hypnosis, you can still think logically but you also have access to the 'software' of your mind so that you can update instinctive emotional and physical responses. In fact the hypnotised subject (not the hypnotist) calls the shots. When I hypnotise someone I need to go at their speed and respond to their needs and expectations. Hypnosis will give you more control in your own life because of what it enables you to do.

How can I be so sure?

Because over the decades I've seen all kinds of people, all ages and from all backgrounds turn their lives around thanks to hypnosis. When you use hypnosis for yourself it improves confidence in all kinds of ways. When you use it to change other's lives it just blows you away. This is what I mean.

When I first hypnotised someone to feel no sensation in a painful arthritic arm it was an incredible feeling. When I first cured life long phobias quickly and comfortably I was astounded. When I stopped hardened alcoholics from drinking and even got a heroin addict off the stuff and back into mainstream life again I started to feel angry that people could just associate hypnosis with entertainment.

With the aid of hypnosis I (and many people I have trained and worked with) have helped severely depressed people feel strong and positive again. The rewards and satisfactions are hard to describe. I'm going to take a stand against ignorance and short sightedness around hypnosis and here's why.

Why you need to reclaim hypnosis for yourself

Hypnosis is your birthright. It's nature's optimum learning tool. In fact to learn and perform anything well you need to experience a natural focusing of attention, a natural kind of hypnosis. To be successful hypnosis needs to be your companion and friend.

Successful people use it naturally all the time because hypnosis is natural. It's the way we learn new responses. Unlike medications its side effects are purely positive - one expectant mother I worked with to feel relaxed during child birth later reported that she was also more relaxed when flying!

Hypnosis is easy to learn and every body can benefit. Hypnosis is a safe environment to 'try out' new behaviours and emotional patterns before you experience them for real. So the young man can ask a woman out for a date many times in calm relaxed hypnosis so that by the time he does it for real it feels real and natural and relaxed. Sports people who use hypnosis learn new quicker and more accurately. So hypnosis gives you more control of yourself and your life, it's natural and gives you instant benefits and it's a way of 'trying on' and establishing new patterns of emotional response and behaviour, Hypnosis enables you to develop yourself as a human being.

Hypnosis: Benefits You Can't Live Without

Hypnosis In The Real World

When you think of hypnosis, do you get the image of a Freud-like doctor swinging a pocket watch to and fro in front of someone in deep emotional trouble? If so, you are not alone. However, this Hollywood image of hypnosis is far from true!

You don't have to be a nut to use hypnosis. Ordinary people, those you see every day, use hypnosis for typical problems. Ask yourself the following questions:

  • Do you have a problem with weight loss?
  • Do you find it difficult to quit smoking?
  • Do you have other addictions you just can't break?

Then hypnosis is for you!

  • Are you lacking in confidence?
  • Are you stressed out?
  • Are you fearful?

Then hypnosis is for you.

Hypnosis can help you with an unlimited number of personal issues, big or small. If you have a phobia, then hypnosis can help you eliminate it. If you have an addiction, then hypnosis can help you kick the habit. If you have a goal, then hypnosis can help you achieve it.

Mental and Physical Benefits of Hypnosis

But that is just the tip of the iceberg. Even if you don't have a pressing issue, hypnosis has extraordinary benefits – both mental and physical. Simply going into a hypnotic state on a regular basis is good for you and the hypnotist doesn't even have to suggest anything at all.

Let's take a look at some of the benefits that hypnosis offers:

  1. Hypnosis Induces Deep Breathing: Stop reading for a moment and check your breathing pattern. If you are like most people, you will be breathing in short quick breaths. When you breath in this manner, you feel stressed out and tense. Not only that, fast breathing can make you feel dizzy, irritable, and foggy. After being hypnotized, you will find that you breathe deeper and thus feel more relaxed and calm.
  2. Hypnosis Reduces Illness: There is no doubt that stress causes physical illness. Stress causes sleep disorders, increases our pain sensitivity, and can even increase our cholesterol. Since hypnosis is a state of deep mental and physical relaxation, being in this state on a regular basis is a way to reduce stress and thus illness.
  3. Hypnosis Increases "Feel Good" Chemicals: Whenever you are deeply relaxed, your brain naturally releases chemicals that cause you to feel good. These chemicals are often in short supply as we rush about our day. Hypnosis causes deep relaxation, allowing these "feel good" chemicals to flow and create a sense of control and well-being.
  4. Hypnosis Promotes Good Sleep: As you get your body used to deep relaxation during hypnosis, you will find that you can get more restful sleep. It is as if your body "learns" how to sleep more peacefully due to the hypnotic state.
  5. Hypnosis Strengthens the Immune System: Stress causes the body to produce chemicals of the "fight or flight" variety. This aroused state actually affects the immune system by using up the chemicals needed to keep it functioning! Regular relaxation, the kind you get in hypnosis, can help prevent this from happening.

Whether you have an issue or just need to relax, hypnosis can help you achieve your goal. You will feel stronger, more in control, more relaxed, and better able to handle your life. Hypnosis is, quite frankly, good for your body.

Bring Peace and Serenity to Your Life Through Hypnosis!

Hypnosis: It happens to everyone, young and old, in everyday life and on special occasions. It is a state of being fully absorbed and attentive to such a degree that occurrences in the outside world become less important. It feels good to be in hypnosis. It is a time of total and complete relaxation for the mind, body and spirit.

Can anyone be hypnotized is a commonly asked question. Prof. McDougall, one of America's greatest psychologists, has shown by careful experiment at Harvard that 90% or more of perfectly normal healthy persons may be hypnotized. Does this mean that 90% of the world is weak-minded? NO. The very best of all subjects for hypnotism is one who can focus his thoughts as directed by the hypnotist.

It is common for people to fear hypnosis, usually because they know little about it or have been influenced by misleading portrayals in the media. Hypnotherapists help thousands of people each year.

Hypnosis can be a very powerful tool to change your habits, for example to help you give up smoking. But it is not a "magic cure" and is generally only effective if, deep down, you really want to give up smoking or whatever habit it is you want to change. If you do want to change for the better, then hypnosis may work well for you.

Hypnosis aimed at curing bad habits is far to resolve these. Sometimes the therapy will uncover grievances that our conscious minds have long forgotten, but which are lodged in more effective if it seeks to replace the bad habit with a good one. For example, the hypnotist will implant the suggestion that the clients will want to take some exercise, eat fruit, or drink water– rather than having a smoke, eating too much sweet food, or whatever his or her bad habit is.

Close relationships, including marriages, can begin to fall apart even without us realizing it or knowing why. A hypnotherapist will enable clients to discover the causes of tensions, and encourage them our unconscious

Worry, stress and anxiety can be extremely draining. While most of us may suffer this experience for only short periods, for a few of us worry is all –consuming. It becomes a habit, and we may even forget what the original source of our concern was.

Hypnosis can unlock those reasons and allow our unconscious mind to overcome the constant stress, worry and anxiety. In the field of medicine many amazing things have been done with hypnotism. The most spectacular are the major operations performed on the body while hypnotism is used on the patient as the only anesthetic. They are also performing simple to complex dental procedures with hypnotism being the only anesthetic.

Since the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, hypnotists have grasped the extraordinary power of hypnosis to control pain in patients. The experience of pain is passed through our body and nerves, through the spinal cord, and on to a receptor in the brain. In hypnosis the aim is to persuade the mind that it is not receiving the message of pain, even though the body is still aware of the pain-causing sensation. This phenomenon is known as analgesia.

One of the most painful experiences in a woman's life can be childbirth, which is why so many women understandably look for the most pain-free ways of giving birth. One of these is to do so under hypnosis it is a wonderful natural non chemical way to bring your baby into this world.

Hypnosis has great power to help you release the anger, fear, and pain of child sexual abuse without having to revisit the actually traumatic event. You simply discover the reaction to the memory and by reprogramming the reaction you reprogram the emotion that is connected to the event or memory. Hypnosis is a wonderful tool for turning negative behaviors, patterns, and internal conflicts around.

Hypnosis is an effective way of learning to use your deepest talents and skills to accomplish goals and change troubling habits. With the guidance of a skilled and compassionate hypnotherapist, hypnosis offers a unique approach to achieving changes that might otherwise be difficult or impossible.

Hypnosis or Self Hypnosis - Does it Matter?

Many professional hypnotists believe it is wrong to use hypnosis as a form of entertainment. They claim that irrevocable damage can be caused by such displays carried out by unskilled people.

This seems a little odd perhaps even hypocritical, as yet no one has come up with a logical accurate description of the hypnotic state, and indeed there are those that claim that all hypnosis is in fact self hypnosis. In the absence of a clear understanding of what hypnosis is it is not surprising that many "schools of hypnosis" have grown up around the world teaching often conflicting approaches to this subject.

I take a simplistic view; it seems that if a person is relaxed, comfortable and willing to listen and observe the words and actions of another he is also receptive to suggestions.

If I suggest that you imagine cutting a juicy lemon and placing a slice on your tongue your mouth will water. Why? Because your brain reacts to the suggestion.

That is the basis of hypnosis, relax the subject, talk to him in general terms and make none threatening suggestions that he experiences something.

The pain / pleasure principle is often quoted as a method of eliciting change in someone's behavior. Anthony Robbins became famous over twenty years ago by challenging an analyst, on live TV to cure one of his patients of a phobia.

The patient had been undergoing therapy for two years, with no effect. Robbins took the woman off stage for 30 minutes and when they returned the woman was cured of her phobia.

When asked to explain how he did it Robbins simple stated he talked to the woman in such a way that the pleasure of overcoming her phobia was so attractive and the pain of continuing with here phobia was so unattractive that her brain moved her away from pain and towards pleasure. The phobia was resolved.

If you want to use self hypnosis to bring about change in your life, make your self comfortable, relax and decide on the subject of your self hypnosis session.

Visualize all the pain and discomfort associated with continuing with your present approach to the problem. Then imagine having solved the problem, how you will feel, how proud, the sense of achievement. It seems that if the brain believes something will happen it invariably does. It makes sense to concentrate on moving ahead and not dwell on negative thoughts and actions.

Ten Steps To Follow To Hypnotise Anyone


1. Decide on your subject then you should always make sure you are in a patient mood..... The person you pick has to be willing to be hypnotized. Hypnosis doesn't work on everyone, so don't worry if it doesn't work on this person. It also takes a lot of practice. A great way to check if someone is a suitable subject is to tell them to close their eyes and imagine one of their hands getting lighter and lighter. Then tell them that their other hand is getting heavier and heavier. If one hand rises and the other hand lowers, then they're a good subject to use.

2. Set the mood. The room does not necessarily have to be silent. However, you need to find ways to keep the subject relaxed. Make sure the room isn't too hot or cold, and that the noises in the room aren't distracting. Playing soft, calming music can help. Make sure the subject is sitting comfortably in a chair and let them slouch as much as they need to.

3. Before you start the relaxation process Have them breath in deeply through their nose, and out deeply through their mouth. Then get them to tense their muscles really tightly for 10 seconds, then have them untense them for 10, then retense for another 10. This should get them feeling loose all over, and the oxygen to the brain will make them relaxed.

4. Mental Contract. Tell them that they agree that they are going to be hypnotised, and that they agree to let you hypnotize them to do anything. This part opens their subconscious, allowing you to do all sorts of bizarre things to them!

5. Begin the relaxation process. Have them lie down and tell them to close their eyes. This part gets very boring for the hypnotist, but the fun stuff is coming. Tell them that you are going to count down backwards from 100 to 0. Tap your foot every second you count and tell them that with every tap they are going to get sleepier and sleepier (DO NOT say the infamous: "You are getting sleeeeeeeeeeepy". It is stereotypical, stupid and never actually works. Do that and you'll get a permanent ban!) Tell them that by the time you reach zero they will be asleep. Start counting. On every number ending in 7 or 3, remind them how tired they are getting. For example: 100, 99, 98, 97 - you are getting more tired and more tired - 96, 95, 94, 93 - you are getting more tired and more tired - 92, etc. You should be counting down at the rate of one digit every two foot taps. Yes, that slow. Boring, I know. Every ten digits, tell them that by the next 10 counts they are going to be twice as tired. For example: 92, 91, 90 - now by the time I reach 80 you are going to be twice as tired, twice as relaxed, and twice as feeling good - 89 etc. Eventually that will be getting them super sleepy. By the time you reach zero they should be asleep.

6. Prepare them for manipulation. Tell them to imagine themselves in a dreamy, wonderful meadow that is warm and happy. Say that there is a cloud in the sky that is sweeping down and picking them up and up and up. It's soft and happy and starts absorbing their toes, cool, tingly, and numb. It is moving up their feet, absorbing their ankles. Eventually have the cloud move up their entire body, eventually engulfing their body and making them numb, cool and tingly. Do this slowly, going through every body part individually.

7. Begin manipulation, but within bounds. Tell them that when the cloud moves, their body moves with the cloud, and it starts by lifting their arm. Specify which arm, and say that it keeps lifting up and up and up.Once their arm is extended in the air (this usually takes a while the first time, but once you get them to move their arm once, it should all happen faster.) Tell them their arm is limp and heavy as lead. It should drop. This should have you thinking, "Oh my gosh! Yes! Now eat this steak." *gives them a shoe* And yes, you are about to have a very fun time. However, you can't just impose things on the hypnotized. If you are too pushy, they will wake up. If you mess up, they will wake, and you will have to get them back into the trance all over again. Here's what to say to get them to do specific commands (For this I am going to use the gnawing on a shoe example.) Tell them the cloud is lowering them into their favorite restaurant and that every food imaginable is on the menu. They can order whatever they want. They will then tell you their order. Tell them you are giving them their food (give them the shoe) and tell them its going to be the tastiest thing ever. They will start gnawing on it, and probably complain that its really tough. It's super fun!

8. Bring your subject out of the trance. Count in a positive, upbeat voice, adding energy to the subject with each number ("You are getting more and more awake..."). Just before you wake them, you can give them a positive boost - like telling them that they will rest well that night - or a final trick - like telling them that they will laugh uncontrollably whenever someone shakes their hand. These effects will eventually wear off, but it's fun to watch.

9. Collect the cash and/or applause.

10. If you want them to go back into the state of hypnosis, try asking them to follow one point on your hand with their eyes (not head) and talking soothingly, then saying "sleep" at an unexpected moment. If they were in a deep state that they have not yet fully awoken from,they should go back into it.

Why is hypnosis good for you?



For a long time hypnosis has had a bad name. If a person doesn't understand something they have 3 options open to them.

1. They might be negative and therefore save the effort of looking further and possibly benefiting.
2. They may conclude it is dangerous and to be avoided no matter what.
3. They may spend their precious time discovering the truth behind the hype.

Its normal to be suspicious about something if you don't know much and most of what you know is not true. Some people assume hypnosis is a part of a magic show, others consider it mystic bullsh*t or "mind control". For the people who look beyond the hype the truth is far more illuminating.

So what is hypnosis like?

Hypnosis is not like being in coma or something. During it, you can still think logically but you also have access to the "software" of your mind so that you can update and reinstall instinctive physical and emotional responses. In fact when you are hypnotized, you are the one calling the shots. Every hypnotist makes things the way you will like it.
