Audio-Hypnosis - Is It Safe?

[wpqikj...@yahoo.com]

Should I be Afraid of Hypnosis?
Have you ever been so involved with a task where you have lost track
of time?
Have you ever been driving on a long trip and suddenly realized that
you were thinking of something else for the previous 30 minutes?
Have you ever been engaged in exercise and "zoned out" for a period of
time, not remembering what happened in the interval?
If so, you experienced hypnosis.
Hypnosis is a pleasant, natural state of physical and mental
relaxation which is naturally experienced on a daily basis by
everyone.
Science simply cannot agree on what it is and how it works, although
as The British Society of Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis states:
"Hypnosis usually involves the person experiencing a sense of deep
relaxation with their attention narrowed down, and focused on
appropriate suggestions made by the hypnotist."
A good technical definition of hypnosis is: A state of relaxation and
concentration at one with a heightened awareness induced by
suggestion.
A good working definition of hypnosis may be this: a direct message
line to your subconscious.
Relaxation
Hypnosis has been described in literature as a state of deep
relaxation. Yet, modern scientific research has proven that hypnotic
trance is not merely a state of relaxation. Sophisticated medical
imaging techniques such as Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scans
reveal distinctly different patterns of brain activity depending on
the state of sleep, relaxation, meditation or hypnosis.
The hypnotic experience has the unusual characteristic of combining
concentration with relaxation, which allows you to focus on your
problem, anxiety or habit while remaining relaxed.
In addition, the skills you will learn for relaxation and hypnosis
will benefit you for the rest of your life. This deep relaxation
allows your unconscious mind to communicate with your conscious mind.
In this state of relaxation you are more open to suggestions:


Your confidence soars
you are oblivious to outside distractions
You feel no performance anxiety
Your total body relaxation allows you to move with effortlessness and
athletic grace. A suggestion received under hypnosis relaxation is
nine times more powerful and stronger because your subconscious mind
is 90% of your mind power.

When you are hypnotized, you feel very calm and relaxed as though
nothing else matters but being in this deep peaceful relaxation.
What is meant by hypnotic relaxation is a deliberately directed
process that interrupts the circle of "mind disturbing body and body
disturbing mind" syndrome. In the Hypnotic State, the doorway between
the conscious and the subconscious is opened, memories become easily
accessible, and new information is stored, without conscious "filters"
acting in a judgmental manner.
Health
The World Health Organization says 90% of the general population can
be hypnotized. To those people who wonder if they can be hypnotized,
the answer is most probably: YES.
Hypnosis is not something to be afraid of, quite the contrary. You
must realize that deep within you resides the power to make your brain
happy or sad, afraid or confident, healthy or sick. Who among us
doesn't want to give ourselves a "mental tune-up?"
Some things that you can accomplish with the help of hypnosis are:


Change your eating habits: through the power of suggestion, you find
yourself craving healthier foods.
Increase energy: hypnotic relaxation is very healthful in restoring
energy and vitality.
Hypnosis is also a powerful agent for

relieving stress
managing pain
speeding healing
faster recovery from surgery
releasing phobias and anxiety
lifting depression
facilitating healthful sleep
letting go of bad habits and instilling good habits
reducing blood pressure
totally (and finally) managing weight
easy motivation for exercise
addressing skin conditions that do not respond to standard therapies
childbirth: bringing babies into the world in a peaceful and relaxed
way
and so much more.I have found that the easiest, most relaxing way to
fit hypnosis into my busy schedule is using audio hypnosis files
(either CD's, Tapes or MP3 digital audio).

I can start my iPod when I leave the house and listen to healthy,
relaxing messages while exercising, driving, working or going for an
evening walk! Obviously, some audio hypnosis is not suitable while
driving, but hypnosis files are usually accompanied with instructions
for their use.
Whichever method is right for you, I encourage every person to use
hypnosis, at least try it out and see if you could benefit from this
natural, relaxing way of communicating with your
subconscious.
