What Happens During Hypnosis? by Alicia D. Cramer

You may have considered trying hypnotherapy before for career enhancement or to defeat some nagging characteristic that you dislike about yourself. However, fear of the unknown may have kept you away. This is understandable, because the average person (who isn’t schooled on Freud, Mesmer and Braid) really hasn’t received much mainstream information about hypnosis outside of the movies.

It’s important to note first of all what hypnosis is and isn’t. By definition, hypnosis is a mental state which is brought on by a series of hypnotic suggestions. The full session of hypnosis usually breaks down in this way:
- Focusing (the hypnotherapists asks the client to focus)
- Relaxing (using an induction technique, the hypnotherapist guides a client to progressive relaxation)
- Deepening (when a person enters an altered state of consciousness or “trance”)
- Suggestible state (when a person reaches a state of trust and openness)
- Posthypnotic suggestion (when the therapists makes suggestions)
- Awakening (coming out of this altered state)

It’s important to realize that real hypnosis is not anything like “showbiz hypnosis.” Real hypnotherapists take time to understand their clients and discover what it is you want out of your sessions. The inquisitive process is a long one at first, as this helps both the client and therapist to learn and trust one another. The therapist must also take note of the type of language that the client uses to process information. The actual session of hypnosis can last anywhere from 30 minutes to over an hour.

Hypnosis is not really about “embedding commands” into a person’s subconscious. It’s about reconditioning the person’s automatic thought process. Hypnosis works best when positive reinforcement (through suggestion) is given. Much of what you learn early in life (the manners, the thinking patterns) becomes automated process in your adulthood. Breaking away from these patterns is not always easy for people who have dealt with trauma or who had strong conditioning ingrained in them while growing up.

Sometimes the only way to rid yourself of a bad habit or to get rid of self-limiting beliefs is to change the thought process. You could say that hypnosis is an organic process, one that favors natural psychology over powerful and potentially damaging medications.
The truth of the matter is that you already are the person you want to be! You’re not cursed to be “ordinary”, nor are you unable to achieve something because of your under performing mind or body. These are all toxic thoughts that can impede your objectives.
Sometimes all it takes is a few “small steps” to change certain thinking patterns and make a great change in life. This is where hypnotherapy can help you.
