Hypnosis and Childbirth
A lot of people consider this to be a fairly new use of hypnosis but I believe that hypnosis has been a part of childbirth since women have been having children. I believe that some mid-wives have been pracitcing this process since time began More women are once again becoming aware that hypnosis is a safe and a more comfortable way to bring their children into the world. This can be done without anesthesia, and drugs and little or no discomfort.
Tom Nicoli
Tom Nicoli is a nationally known hypnotist. He is mostly known for his weight loss work but he does offer many other programs. He was on Dateline NBC and was successful in facilitating weight loss on “The Ultimate Weight Loss Challenge.” This was a test of several different weight loss programs to see which may be most effective. Mr. Nicoli’s patient lost 40 pounds during the course of the challenge..
Hypnosis and Success: Part 2
In the previous post I talked about how many successful people are able to enter a state of hypnosis to achieve a state of creativity. Some are able to enter this state spontaneously and others can learn how to enter it. Hypnosis and meditation seem to be closely related if not the same thing.
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.
When you do hypnosis, state your goals
Many people have a vague idea of what they would like to accompllish in the next hour, in the next week, month, year or the rest of their lives. Too many of us don’t take the time to firm out these ideas. In fact, we tend to go through our lives, just waiting for things to happen so that we can react to them. We fail to make rhings happen for us instead of just reacting. That is called being proactive.
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.

What Kind of Hypnosis Training Should I Get?
Kinds of Hypnosis Training
There are all types and various time lengths of hypnosis training available today. The National Guild of Hypnotists (NHG) requires that you receive 100 hours of training from one of their Certified Trainers. There are programs that will certify Hypnotists after a weekend of training. I recently saw some posts by an individual that received his training free by watching videos online.
Smoking Cessation and Hypnosis
A few years ago {July, 2001) Scientific American magazine ran an article that stated that hypnosis was the most effective method of stopping smoking. Since that time there have been several medications come on the market that appear to have some beneficial effects with helping people stop smoking. Now, I know that I only see the people who have been unsuccessful with these medications but I have never seen anyone who has stopped smoking by taking a pill.
