While the idea of being hypnotized seems uncomfortable to you at first, the fact is that hypnosis is a natural state we experience every day. Remember that feeling, when you are first waking up in the morning, but not quite fully awake? That sort of relaxed, daydreaming state is very similar to the hypnotic state. You're aware of what's going on around you, but somewhat detached from it and at peace. However you describe it, it is a safe, comfortable, relaxed, but mentally alert state of consciousness. In this calm state, we are better able to access the subconscious mind, which is the source of most of our behavior.
Why Is Hypnotherapy So Effective? Have you ever wondered why it is so difficult to change a habit, no matter how dedicated you are or how much you want to change? It is because our behavior is primarily rooted in our subconscious mind. And our subconscious is very much like a stubborn child, comfortable with what it knows and fearful of change. And this "subconscious" portion of our mind unfortunately comprises almost 90% of our total mind! So, when our rational mind, our "willpower" if you like, battles our subconscious mind, it is like a tug of war in which 10 adults are on one end of the rope, while 90 rebellious children are on the other! The children will win almost every time. In hypnotherapy, we access our subconscious mind and "win it over" to a more productive way of reacting to challenges. In this way, we are able to bring our conscious and subconscious minds into agreement, so that they are both "pulling together" to help us awaken our greatest potential and accomplish our goals. Hypnotherapy is so effective that many health insurance companies recognize it as the best treatment for certain conditions. Blue Cross of California is one such plan. Check with your health provider to find out if they provide coverage for hypnotherapy. Still not sure hypnotherapy can work for you? Read some of our testimonials.
