What is Hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a calm state of relaxation which allows information to move past the conscious mind and enter the subconscious. The subconscious mind harbors the negative habits, beliefs, and memories that prevent us from living life to its fullest.
Through hypnosis, the root of a problem can be identified, and the negative programming associated with that issue can be replaced with positive ideas and suggestions, clearing the way for dramatic life changes. It is a safe and effective process with benefits that can last a lifetime.

Hypnosis Facts & Myths
Anyone can be hypnotized.
True. Hypnosis is a relaxed state where your subconscious mind is accessible and open to making positive changes.
Hypnosis is completely safe.
True. You are always in control. In fact, sessions are often quite interactive. During a session, clients are free to talk and share their feelings.
Hypnosis is “mind control.”
False. Hypnosis will not cause anyone to do anything against their will, and you cannot get stuck in a trance. A hypnotist cannot make you rob banks and bring them the money (except in the movies).
Hypnosis is sleep.
False. During hypnotherapy, you are drawn into a safe, comfortable state of relaxation, not sleep. You might think about it this way: If you’ve ever tried to talk to someone asleep, it is completely unproductive. So, if clients were actually sleeping, we wouldn’t be able to get anything done. It would be like seeing a psychotherapist and sleeping through the session. You would get absolutely nothing out of it.
You are in control of hypnosis.
True. While in a state of hypnosis, working with the guidance of the hypnotist, you will decide how to resolve each issue in a way that works best for you.
Inside our brains, we have a conscious and a subconscious mind. The conscious or critical mind is the part of the mind that is logical and analytical. It does the reasoning for you. It is the part of the mind that keeps you functioning throughout the day and makes most of your daily decisions.
The subconscious mind stores our habits, beliefs, anxieties, behavioral patterns, embedded memories, emotions, and fears. The information in the subconscious mind is deeply ingrained and very difficult to change.
When you decide that you want to make significant changes in your life-such as habits, lifestyle, beliefs, fears, and behavioral patterns-those modifications have to be made at the subconscious level. But the conscious mind and critical factor act as a protective wall or barrier around the subconscious mind and, under normal circumstances, keep information from reaching the subconscious. That barrier or obstruction makes it difficult for the subconscious mind to change or accept new material. This is why hypnosis is a valuable resource. Hypnosis bypasses the conscious mind interference and works directly with the subconscious mind.
For most people to make changes — whether, it is to reduce stress, lose weight, overcome fears, improve sleep habits, boost self-esteem, or any number of lifestyle changes — they have to make changes in the programming of the subconscious mind.
How Does Hypnosis Work?
The Mind-Body Connection
How important is the mind in promoting good health and well-being? People readily accept that the mind can cause psychosomatic illnesses. People also accept that mental and emotional stress can cause physical ailments. High blood pressure, headaches, back spasms, and skin rashes are just a few examples of physical afflictions that can be the result of stress.
So, the question is: if the mind can create ailments or illnesses, can the mind also be used to heal or reverse these ailments that we have created? Or better yet, can we prevent these unhealthy situations from occurring altogether? In other words, if the mind can cause or create health problems, can we also use the mind to heal ourselves and fix whatever is broken? That is the focus of hypnosis: to create a healthy relationship between the mental and the physical.
If we can free our minds from unresolved emotional issues, excessive mental stress, irrational fears, and other burdens that take away from our mental well-being, then we can heal our physical bodies. In other words, if we heal the mind, can that heal the body.
