You are getting sleepy . . . sleepy . . .

[The deep, dark truth about Hypnotherapy]

            As a hypnotherapist, my main tool for helping people deal with problems and bring about change in their lives is hypnosis.   A natural state of mind which recruits a person's subconscious mind in rewriting their mental and behavioral programming.  It's safe, easy and enjoyable.  I also use other tools, but it’s hypnosis that most people seem to be most interested in.  And are most confused and misinformed about.  So, I thought I’d write a short post about what hypnotherapy is and isn’t.


Hypnotherapy isn’t -

                   

           


Hypnotherapy is -


           

Don't worry -

             The "Id Monster"** is fiction.  There's no such thing.  Monsters aren't gonna jump out of your subconscious mind and eat you or your therapist.  And if one does try it, don't worry - your therapist has seen worse - she can take care of both of you.  Nothing's gonna come forth that you aren't capable, with help, of dealing with.


**"Forbidden Planet," MGM, 1956.

 
The final truth - 

           Hypnotherapy isn't magic, even though it may seem like it.  But it can be a very useful tool.  In the long run, it's still your life, and you are the one who has to do the work. 

Good Luck
