Hypnosis and Nail Biting
Stopping fingernail biting can be very difficult. Sometime you manage to stop fpr a while and the nails grow out a bit and suddenly they are down to the quick again.
Why Hypnosis?
I’ve just realized that I have been a Hypnotist for 9 years. I also have been a Psychotherapist for 15 years and have worked as a Substance Abuse Counselor and an Assistant Substance Abuse Counselor for several years before that. The more I work with hypnosis, the more find that it can be used more quickly and more effectively than my other disciplines.
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.
Choosing a Hypnotherpist
I think a lot more people would go to see a hypnotherapist if they had some way to know how to determine if he or she were capable of helping them make the changes they want to make. As hypnosis gains in popularity, there are more therapists available and most of them are competent. To be sure that you are choosing a hypnotist that can serve you well keep several things in mind.
Treating Phobias and Fears with Hypnosis
There are things that happen in our lives that create strong reactions in our subconscious minds . This usually happens dureng childhood but can happend at any point in life. One way the subconscious mind reacts to these events is by creating fears and phobias.These can be effectively treated with hypnosis.
The Subconscious Mind at Work
Nobody knows exactly where to find our subconscious mind. When we talk about things like this we are probably more comfortable imagining that it is a definate entity that sits somewhere in our body, usually in our brain, and can be identified on an anatomical chart.
What is Hypnosis?
One of the first questions people want answered is “What is Hypnosis?” Many people do not understand hypnosis and need to have their misconceptions rectified before continuing. These misconceptions lead to fear or mistrust and can stand in the way of someone making a decision as to whether hypnosis can help solve their particular problem.
Training to Bring a Client to the Hypnotic State
There are lots of ways to train in hypnosis. My initial training was as a licensed mental health professional. I actually could have used my license to practice hypnosis but I decided that becoming a certified hypnotist would be in the best interests of my clients.
Stage Hypnosis
Almost everyone has heard of hypnosis and it has become more recognized as a method of helpong with mental health issues such depression and anxiety. It is also helpful with problems caused by behaviors such as addiction and overeating. Hypnosis has long been known for it’s entertainment value or stage hypnosis.
Book review: Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy by Calvin Banyan and Gerald Kein
I chose this book to review because it is another of the books that changed the way that I do Hypnotherapy. The subtitle is Basic to Advanced Techniques for the Professional. I believe that the subtitle describes the book perfectly.
