A Quick Guide to Hypnotherapy

[lhwdqc...@yahoo.com]

Hypnosis has been around for thousands of years. From ancient Egyptian
times even through today, hypnotism has been used in religion,
medicine, mental therapy, and even entertainment. Patients often
undergo hypnosis to help release stress or to overcome certain
challenges in their lives such as smoking habits, obesity, anorexia,
bulimia, insomnia, depression, and other conditions. Hypnotherapy is
similar to psychotherapy except it is undertaken when the patient is
in a state of hypnosis. Hypnotherapy is meant to help modify the
patient's behavior, attitude, and emotional state for positive life
changes. Hypnotherapy is usually performed by a professional
hypnotherapist. In many cases, the hypnotherapist will train the
patient in self-hypnosis so the patient can benefit from hypnotherapy
at any time when needed. What Happens During Hypnosis? Before the
actual hypnosis begins, both the patient and the trained
hypnotherapist agree to the process. Hypnosis cannot be forced on the
patient. There will usually be an informal talk between the two with
questions and answers as well as an explanation of what is about to
take place. Next is the actual hypnosis. The hypnotherapist leads with
his or her voice to gently guide the patient into a state of
relaxation in mind and body. The patient may appear to be asleep, but
is awake enough to be aware of what's going on - especially in the
parts of the mind that can effect beneficial changes. The patient is
led into comforting, pleasant thoughts and begins to daydream about
happy times or hopes for the future. When under hypnosis, the patient
often feels very relaxed. It's similar to the warm comfort of a bed
when one is very sleepy. The patient can terminate the session at any
time if he or she begins to feel uncomfortable. When the session ends,
the patient is able to ask questions and discuss the experience of
hypnosis. Hypnosis Today Today, there are many different ways people

their homes to take advantage of hypnosis. There are Internet sites
that offer guides and tips on hypnosis, along with hypnosis training

term benefits of hypnosis without paying high costs to visit a trained
hypnotherapist. These products are very helpful when times of stress

situations. On hypnosis MP3s and hypnosis CDs, the messages are
