Why Hypnotherapy Works
A More Detailed Explanation
The state of mind known as ‘hypnosis’ involves:-
‘a concentrated engagement in internalised experience.’
This is achieved, through
‘the recall of memories and sensations,
and the utilization of our imagination
and our inherent visualisation
skills.’
In this natural, yet transforming state,
‘the mind can perform
way beyond
its normal everyday capabilities.’
It becomes much
‘more adaptable and better prepared
to absorb new learning
and to gain new insights.’
'In essence, there is a greater willingness
to accept positive
change.’
This is primarily because
the ‘resourcefulness and creativity
of the unconscious mind’
more effectively comes into play.
‘There is a heightened receptiveness to beneficial suggestion,
and a noticeable improvement in memory,
that can allow access to
consciously forgotten
or repressed life experiences.’
It is these intrinsic qualities of the hypnotic state
that are
beneficially directed,
for positive therapeutic improvement.
‘Through direct access to the stored experiences
and resources
of the unconscious mind,
previously rigid patterns or habits can
be eradicated,
and attitudes once thought of as permanently limiting,
can finally be surmounted.’
Hypnotherapy ultimately provides
- ‘a new way of thinking’
– a fresh ‘mind-set’
- so that previously unhelpful
patterns of thought,
can be replaced by a more positive and constructive
viewpoint.
As a result:
Hypnotherapy, has been called
- ‘the optimistic therapy’.
‘It is, fundamentally, a technique,
that can enhance individual
self-mastery
and personal-empowerment.’
