Medical Hypnosis
Hypnosis as been around since man first developed cognitive ability. People have been performing self-hypnosis since they have been able to focus on a subject or daydream. Hypnosis has been recognized by the AMA as a legitimate medical treatment since 1958. Physicians rarely do hypnosis with their patients anymore because they simply don’t have time. A Medical Doctor would be the ideal person to perform Medical Hypnosis because they have the authority and often see their patients at times of intense emotion. These are conditions that set the stage for successful hypnotherapy. The issue is that the cost of doing business for a physician is just to great to invest the time for a hypnosis intervention.
Past Life Regression
One of the most common questions I get as a hypnotherapist is “Can you do past life regressions?” The truth is that I don’t know if I believe in past lives. It really makes no difference if I believe in past lives. If the patient believes I have never had an unsuccessful session. I have even done sessions designed to discover what happens between lives.
Online Hypnosis Downloads
I have seen online hypnosis downloads on the internet ever since I have been paying attention to that sort of thing. I guess it took me a while to connect the two but it seems that hypnosis downloand have been on the internet almost from the beginning.
Free Hypnosis Info
The internet is full of sites and blogs offering free hypnosis info. the word “free” always gets people’s atention and is intended to attract folks to the site. I have always been a believer in the phrase “You get what you pay for.” I have to reconsider when it comes to free hypnosis info
Hypnosis and Weight Control
Hypnosis is a safe and effective way to loose and weight. It can help you loose the weight you want and to develop a healthy eating plan and increase physical activity. It can also aid with maintaining the weight you have lost. The key is to change behaviors by focusing on change in the subconscious mind. The conscious mind can know that the behavior change is needed and wanted but until the subconscious mind accepts and believes that weight lose is in your best interest, it will not allow it.
Explaining NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programing)
Basucally Neuro-Linguistic Programming is the process of replacing negative implants in our subconscious mind with more positive imprints. As human beings we all constantly have thoughts that effect our feelings and behavior. If these thoughts are negative, we will experience depression, anxiety, fear, frustration or other negaitive emotions. Then the combination of our thoughts and our emotions create our behavior. If we want to change our emotions or behavior, we need to go back and change our thoughts. We call these thoughts “self-talk”.
The NLP Feedback Sandwich – Communicate in a way that you can be heard.
When we try to communicate with others we are often misunderstood and many times we don’t get the results we want.
The Average New Client
I was thinking about the average new client that comes into my office. Usually, they have tried several (or many) other solutions to their particular problem. Many times hypnosis is a last resort. As I have discussed in an earlier post, they are sceptical and nervous. But most of all I think that they believe that the hypnotist has some type of occult power that will rid them of whatever issue that they have come to deal with.
Advanced Hypnosis Training
To begin with, the National Guild of Hypnotists {NGH} requires it’s members to obtain continuing education. Along with that, I believe that it is in the best interest of the hypnotist and his or her clients to obtain as much training as possible. It is considered unethical to practice techniques that you are not trained to perform.
The Process of Deletion Using NLP
Deletion is a process of the Reticular Activating System (RAS) by which we are able to filter out certain information.
