What is Hypnosis?

Hypnosis, or self-hypnosis is a way of activating the unconscious mind through
a relaxing meditative state where the brain in an alpha brain wave state of
between  8 to 13 cycles per second. At this time the unconscious mind can be
activated so that therapeutic suggestions and affirmations can be made directly
that enable a person to act on these suggestions with ease and efficiency. The
average person spends 3 - 4 hours every day in an hypnotic state during their
waking life.

Through hypnosis you can access the root cause of any habit, behavior or
pattern and be able to create long-lasting, life-affirming change.
Hypnotherapists use skill, not power to assist their  clients in achieving
hypnosis. Most hypnosis is self-hypnosis in that the hypnotic subject decides
when to accept the hypnotic state. The choice as to whether to be hypnotized
lies with the subject, and not with the hypnotherapist. When a hypnotherapy
client comes into my office they usually expect and desire to be hypnotized,  
and believe that this will happen. This expectation helps a subject achieve their
desired hypnotic state. The hypnotherapist guides the client/subject through
progressive relaxation and focused attention to achieve this hypnotic state. No
one can force an hypnotic state upon a subject.

Our unconscious mind stores everything that we observe by our five senses,
functioning very much like a computer. All of this "data" includes past and
future life date, as well as our experiences in this present lifetime. The
unconscious mind reincarnates and cannot be destroyed. Many of us have fears
and fallacies about hypnosis, because we have been programmed to feel and
believe that is either dangerous or a form of mind control. Some other common
fears are of revealing secrets in hypnotic trance, not remembering the
suggestions given during hypnosis when the trance ends, substituting one
symptom with another, not being able to leave the hypnotized state, or being
trapped in a past or future life.

The person undergoing hypnosis always determines whether the hypnotic state
is to occur or not. The hypnotist is the facilitator of  hypnosis, while the subject
always remains in control. A hypnotherapist cannot force a subject to answer a
question during hypnosis. Hypnosis is a natural state of mind where the true
cause of various symptoms can be eliminated. All of us come out of the
hypnotized state when we are ready.  I have never heard of anyone being
trapped in a past or future lifetime.
