Common Myths About Hypnosis
Four of the most common myths about Hypnosis:
People seem to think ones goes under hypnosis, like and anaesthetic or going under water like scuba diving, this is what people expect but will not experience, because hypnosis is a gradual cycling down of the brain one feels no such effect.
You go into hypnosis not under, rather like day dreaming
Secondly people perceive themselves to be too much of a control fanatic or to strong, to experience hypnosis, the truth is that the more you are ,the easier you will go in ,we find working with people who focus such as sports people ,musicians, painters or anyone who can concentrate on a task much easier to work with than others
Thirdly people perceive Hypnosis as an in-depth investigation into the hidden private areas of the subconscious, hypnosis practitioners do not go back to treat nor investigate your private thoughts ,the psychologists will do the root cause process, hypnosis practitioners attempt to assist the client to change an existing negative behaviour into a positive, hypnosis is just a tool that is used to bring about positive change ,sometimes working in conjunction with other therapists such as psychologists
Fourthly, the only people who cannot make use of Hypnosis are deaf people and those that have any form of brain retardation.
