How Hypnosis Works

Hypnosis is a natural state of mind, sometimes mistakenly thought of as sleep, unconsciousness or losing control. In truth it is an altered state where the conscious mind is bypassed and the subconscious mind can be accessed. Sometimes called focused awareness. The subconscious mind is far more powerful than the conscious mind. It 'tape records' all experience. It is a way to emotions, past events suppressed, repressed or forgotten by the conscious mind. The subconscious can access facts, information, causes of feelings, behaviours and attitudes; these can be strengthened and changed according to the client's needs. Clinical hypnotherapy is the use of hypnosis as a conduit for therapy.
