Clinical Hypnotherapy
In general, the word "hypnosis" usually causes strong reactions that can be either positive or negative. For many it is a big scam, or a method that turns people into helpless creatures. Still others believe that it is a panacea for every human ailment, and still others find it something very dangerous that should be avoided.
The experiences of hypnosis in its various forms have been a known phenomenon for centuries now, and are usually surrounded by a myth, by something magical and inexplicable.
Hypnosis is not a hoax.
Many times it is viewed with suspicion by some, simply because there is a belief that it is either bad, or does not bring results, or even that it is a means of manipulation. In hypnosis the main problem is the word itself. What we will learn, however, is that the supposed "magic" in hypnosis is nothing more than a specific methodology, a completely explainable way of communicating, which we can make use of, not only during a hypnosis challenge, but also in our "normal" everyday life. communication with other people.
It doesn't matter what we call this state: hypnosis, meditation, altered state of consciousness. But the essential difference is that hypnosis follows a direction, an outcome that we have chosen before we begin. We are not just trying to share a nice memory with the other person, but to induce a certain state of consciousness.
Hypnotic procedures are simply about controlling altered states of consciousness. There are as many as there are people who create them. The possibilities are limitless.
To be able to make others change, you must first be able to change your own behavior. If you want the other person to enter a different situation – e.g. hypnotic – you'll have to go in first. You are actually more in control of yourself when you are in an altered state of consciousness than when you are awake. When people enter an altered state of consciousness they lose not only their inhibitions, but their beliefs about what is possible and what is not. And so they can control their ideas and beliefs. And when people change what they believe they change their lives.
When we have a strategy in mind to do something the "impossible" becomes not only possible, but also easy. And one can do something so effectively in a hypnotic state because one does not have the limitation of thinking it is impossible.
The deeper the hypnosis, the more relaxed and well one feels. Then, consciousness of the waking state or everyday life no longer exists. This increases the readiness to learn. Also, our personal inner changes can be approached more pleasantly and more easily.
Under no circumstances can the hypnotic process lead people to violate their morals and values. Hypnotic testing and submissions are subject to each individual's personal limitations. Milton Erickson once said that if we could control people through the process of hypnosis there would be far fewer sick and neurotic people. We cannot subject the other to doing things against his will.
So hypnosis refers to a natural process of consciousness that happens every day to anyone. When consciousness interrupts what we see, hear or feel from our external environment, then we are transported into an internal state. We may be thinking deeply, concentrating on something important, or simply relaxing our mind, or meditating, or even praying, or not thinking about anything in particular, etc. In all these situations our attention is directed inward. and we are in a hypnotic process.
Having access to a comfortable and relaxed state that allows us to respond more effectively to new ideas and suggestions, opening the doors to learning. This process allows us to set aside our personal defenses and limitations. And so we can install the new ideas and behavioral programs we desire.
