Hypnosis by definition is a state of nervous sleep in which the subconscious mind takes control over the conscious mind. We slip naturally into states of hypnosis when we sleep, daydream, or when our mind becomes so overloaded with information that we feel ourselves tuning out. Stress, anxiety, boredom, trauma can induce hypnotic states without the conscious awareness of the subject.
There are two schools of hypnosis, mainly the Eastern and Western schools. In the Eastern school, better known as Tantra, control is taken away from the client. The conscious mind is overpowered and the client’s responses are guided by the Tantric.
The Western technique of hypnosis formally developed by Dr. John Kappas allows the client to retain partial control of his conscious mind. The client gives permission to the therapist to enter his space and work with him. The hypnotherapist is a mind surgeon, gaining access to the subconscious mind by overloading the conscious mind with suggestions and information and forcing it to open the doors of the critical filter. The subconscious mind is 6000 times stronger than the conscious mind and positive suggestions implanted in the subconscious can help the client to overcome issues which may be challenging them.
Hpnotherapists help people to Heal. The word Heal comes from Hale which in turn means to make Whole. A certified hypnotherapist is trained to make Whole a person’s space without medication. A person’s space essentially refers to
Thought
↓ ↑
Emotion +ve/-ve
↓ ↑
Energy (Aura) +ve/-ve
↓ ↑
Body ( Brain )
The mind consisting of Thoughts, Emotions, and Energy works on the Body through the Brain. Mind is the software and the Brain is the Hardware which drives us. In simple terms we can say that the Body is the Car, the Mind is the Driver, and the Soul is the Fuel which powers us. A hypnotherapist works on all levels of a person’s space, using techniques to balance the energy field, change negative emotions into positive by helping the client to identify and vent out painful feelings, and most importantly and most effectively improve the thought process of the client by superimposing +ve files over the –ve files in the subconscious.
Thoughts are the most powerful activators of all the functions of the mind. They generate feelings which are E – motions or energy in motion, which in turn impacts our energy field or aura. Free flowing energy flows through the meridians in the body with ease and we feel a sense of physical well being and because our energy field is positively charged we invite others into our space with joy and happiness. When our thought processes are impaired, it affect us psychologically ( emotionally) and the motion of the energy in our bodies is disturbed. Our energy meridians get blocked and we begin to experience Dis – ease which manifests itself in the body as various disorders like headaches, arthritis, cancer, or other mild or even life threatening diseases. Schizophrenia, migraine, arterial blockage, diabetes, allergy, Parkinson’s , substance abuse are all related to emotional states generated by impaired thought processes and can be worked on through hypnotherapy.
The same theory holds true for our ease or dis- ease in our interactions with other living beings. All of us live in our own microcosm comprised by our mind, body and soul. Then we have others who live in our macrocosm. These are our family, friends, neighbors, colleagues and all the people and things with whom we interact during the course of our lives. Everything that happens to us inside our microcosm ripples out into our macrocosm. In other words, What is Inside is Reflected outside. The only requirement is to Change Ourselves because any change we make in our microcosm will reflect in our macrocosm.
We never react to people based on the Now, but on experiences they trigger in files in our subconscious mind. This is why we find ourselves reaching out to some people even if they have entered our space very recently and withdrawing or retracting from people who are family and whom our rules tell us to respect and venerate. What is important for us to understand is that people whom we perceive as our enemies are really Teachers who have come into our space to give us a lesson.
As we Heal, and our subconscious mind begins to correlate its reactions with the experiences which were stored in its files from this or past lives, then our frequency begins to change. Our awareness of the Truth begins to widen and the people in our macrocosm will move with us or move out based on the choices they make about their willingness to tune into our frequency. Our auric field will strengthen and we will begin to attract people who are vibrating with the same energy that we are.
As an alternative healing process, hypnotherapy is one of the most powerful mediums of healing because it works directly at the level of thought and thus impacts all the systems of which we are comprised. Allopathy and homeopathy deal with the physical body ; acupuncture, acupressure, and Reiki etc impact the energy meridians ; psychiatrists analyze the client’s emotions and suggest alternatives emotional states to balance the client’s space. A hypnotherapist on the other hand is merely a neutral mirror, allowing the client to see all of himself – his thoughts, emotions, energy field, and physical body and allowing him/ her to reach deep into his subconscious mind to find his own answers to his issues. The therapist empowers the client to become Whole without any medication, merely by using the tremendous power of the client’s subconscious mind to generate its own healing.
