Hypnotherapists have worked hard to ensure hypnotherapy is reputable, governed and understood. Hypnosis is a naturally arising state of mind that occurs in many people on a daily basis, for example during a monotonous drive on the motorway, when watching a movie or when we drive a familiar route and can’t remember the journey afterwards. At these times when we are deeply relaxed or highly focused, our conscious mind goes into a neutral state and our subconscious processing takes over. This means our subconscious mind is more accessible. Hypnosis itself is not a therapy, although one could argue that the relaxing properties of hypnosis are very healing. The therapy side comes when a trained therapist works with the subconscious part of the mind to treat various emotional, physical and mental ailments and create beneficial changes in a person. Once direct access to the subconscious mind is possible through hypnosis, certain therapeutic techniques, such as NLP, can then be used to initiate change within the client. This is more effective than using the techniques alone, because you are working with the subconscious part of your mind, which is the part of you that stores the rules of your environment and your beliefs, desires and attitudes. Recent research has revealed that hypnotherapy is a tool that has many useful applications – so much so that the NHS now employ hypnotherapists, universities fund research into hypnotherapy and mental health charities deploy hypnotherapists to work with various mental health issues. In short, hypnotherapy is an evidence-based therapy that has changed many lives and it could change yours too.
