Hypnosis is a highly disputed phenomenon that has been around for a long time. It can be used to help someone to stop destructive behavior, such as smoking or overeating. Or, hypnosis could be used simply to help one to relax. Whatever hypnosis is used for, how does hypnosis work is one of the most common questions that is asked when people are considering whether or not to undergo hypnosis. There are various theories about how does hypnosis work, and some are more commonly accepted than others. Finding out how does hypnosis work will allow anyone considering hypnosis to make a more educated decision about whether or not they wish to undergo the process.
The Four States of Mind
One of the most commonly accepted explanations for how does hypnosis work involves the physiological definitions of hypnosis. Through research, scientists have identified four brain wave patterns: the Alpha state, the Beta state, the Theta state, and the Delta state. These states of the brain are associated with different activities and activity levels. The alpha state is the relaxed or reflecting state, the beta state is the alert or working state, the theta state is the drowsy state, and the delta state is the sleeping, dreaming, and deep sleep state.
The Alpha And Theta State Theory
So now that you know about the four different states of mind, how does that help you to know how does hypnosis work? Well, scientists have determined that, when the brain is in the alpha state, it can be directed to make improvements in issues such as smoking and weight loss. Similarly, scientists have identified that it is necessary for therapeutic change, such as surgery and pain sensitivity. Thus, hypnosis generally works by guiding the patients to the alpha and theta states of mind. When a patient is in on of these states of mind, the hypnotist then makes suggestions that inspires the patient to complete tasks and make life improvements.
Other Theories
The state of mind theory is not the only theory that is used to explain how does hypnosis work. Other theories have been developed over the years, and some are more accepted than others. Other commonly accepted theories include: the role playing theory, the disassociation theory, the nondisassociation theory, the neuropsychological theory, the hyper-suggestibility theory, the informational theory, and the systems theory.
