THE DEFINITION OF SELF HYPNOSIS: Hypnosis is a condition of hyper-suggestibility where the conscious mind and the unconscious mind dissociate. It is a state of mind where the subject is more likely to believe the operator's suggestions.You have been in hypnosis many times without even recognizing the state.  If you have ever seen a sad television show and reacted with a tear in your eye, you have been in a state of hypnosis. You entered a state of increased suggestibility where you uncritically accepted the idea of gloom on the TV screen and reacted with a sad emotion, your tear. In other words, your reasoning ability, which is contained in your conscious mind, was bypassed. You did not reason that the show was just a play; you accepted the action as being real. So you reacted with real passion and shed a tear.WHO CAN BE HYPNOTIZED? Hypnotists have discovered that all normal people are hypnotizable to a greater or lesser extent. Subjects with the I.Q. of the moron level of intelligence or lower generally are not hypnotizable. People who are in an active state of psychosis by and large are not hypnotizable. Most senile people are impossible to hypnotize. I have found in my own hypnosis practice dealing with a large number of retired people up to 85 years of age, that hypnotherapy is a powerful and beneficial process for the majority of people. An individual's personal motivation is the key to his or her success.DO I HAVE TO BE A "DEEP" HYPNOTIC SUBJECT TO BE SUCCESSFUL? For the therapeutic applications of hypnotherapy we most often deal with, hypnotic depth of any kind is not required. A subject can be the lightest possible subject and still receive all of the benefits from hypnotherapy that the deepest subjects will receive. I strongly feel that over the years, far too much importance has been placed on how deep a subject is. If the subject is deep, it could be beneficial. This however, may not necessarily be the case. Actually, with the latest hypnotic techniques like Ericksonian hypnotherapy and state of the art "NLP" (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), the depth of the hypnotic state is one of the least imperative aspects, which contribute to a successful outcome.ARE THERE ANY DANGERS IN SELF HYPNOSIS? There are fundamentally no dangers to the practice of hypnotherapy. It is not possible to "get stuck" in hypnotherapy. The worst thing that could happen while a client is in the hypnotic state is that she might fall into a natural state of sleep for twenty or thirty minutes. She would awaken rested and out of the state of self-hypnosis.MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT A HYPNOTIC STATE: There are many misnomers about hypnotherapy. Most of the misnomers are due to stage and television shows. As luck would have it, it is because of the fact that the television can hypnotize you that these misnomers are so strongly ingrained in people's minds.IS SELF HYPNOSIS SLEEP? The largest misconception about hypnotherapy is that it is sleep. Not anything could be further from the truth. If you are asleep, you are unconscious. If you are unconscious, you can't hear anything. If you can't hear anything, then the hypnotherapist can't help you. Hypnosis is a state of keen awareness. The subject is wide-awake and aware of everything around her. This misconception comes from the stage Hypnotist's use of the word "sleep" as equivalent to a state of hypnosis. When the old time hypnotist swung the pocket watch in front of the subject's face, he told the subject that she was getting "sleepy." Then he told the subject to "go to sleep." What he meant was to go into a hypnotic sleep, not a natural sleep.IS THERE A HYPNOTIZED FEELING? The second largest misconception is that there is a hypnotized feeling. There is no specific hypnotized feeling. I repeat there is no specific hypnotized feeling. Most people feel very relaxed when in a state of hypnosis, as relaxation seems to be the essence of the hypnotic state. Some people feel heavy. Some people feel light. Some people have other sensations and feelings. Other people have absolutely no feeling that they are in self-hypnosis, and believe they haven't been hypnotized when they most definitely have.CAN THE HYPNOTHERAPIST TAKE CONTROL OF ME? NO! The hypnotherapist can't make you do anything against your will. There is always an observing ego state. Should the therapist make an offensive suggestion; this ego state would reject the suggestion. Additionally, you will probably come out of the hypnotic state if the hypnotherapist makes an offensive suggestion.CAN THE HYPNOTIST FORCE ME TO DIVULGE ANY OF MY SECRETS? You will not divulge any secrets while in self hypnosis unless you want to. The therapist doesn't have any control over the subject. Quite the contrary, the subject has more control over herself since at this time she can directly communicate with her own unconscious mind. The subject can easily refuse any suggestion the therapist makes, no matter how simple or complicated the suggestion might be. The subject can open her eyes, exit from the state of self hypnosis, and exit the room at any time she chooses.MUST PEOPLE TELL THE TRUTH WHEN IN SELF-HYPNOSIS? NO! People can lie when in self-hypnosis.DO HYPNOTISTS HAVE SUPERNATURAL VIBRATIONS? This is a common misconception. The therapist doesn't have any special powers, nor does he have any special vibrations with which to hypnotize you into the state of hypnosis. In reality, all hypnosis is self-hypnosis. The therapist leads the subject into a state of hypnosis. In other words, the ability of self hypnosis is within the subject.WHY DO PEOPLE FAIL TO REACH THEIR GOALS WHEN USING SELF HYPNOSIS? Perhaps the chief reason for the inability to reach one's goals through self-hypnosis is an insufficient amount of practice where self-hypnosis is concerned. The biggest reason for the return of a symptom or "relapse" is the early discontinuance of hypnotherapy with the Hypno-therapist or recorded program.  While self-hypnosis is important, it is generally the hetero-hypnosis with the therapist or hypnosis recording which has the greatest impact upon the unconscious mind. This is because of the experience that the therapist has vs. the lack of experience of the client.  Some people are penny wise and pound-foolish. They mentally set an amount of time or money that they are willing to spend for help. And then they prematurely abate their sessions because; "I didn't lose 50 Lbs. in two days, so it isn't working." If a therapeutic method is really helping one to make their desired changes, then it is invaluable and it should be sustained. It is for this reason that it is wise to have follow up hypnosis sessions, even after a symptom seems to have disappeared completely. Self-hypnosis should be an ongoing affair on a daily basis. Ultimately, YOUR SUCCESS IS UP TO YOU!WILL I BE BETTER OFF HIRING A HYPNOTIST, OR WILL PURCHASING A RECORDED PROGRAM WORK BETTER? That is an excellent question. Normally I would recommend that you utilize the services of a reputable therapist.  The reason is that by meeting with you, a good therapist / NLP'er will be able to customize his approach to your personality and your favored representational system -- the way you favor taking in information through your senses to make sense out of it and react to it. In my opinion, 99% of the recorded hypnosis programs available today are strictly Traditional Hypnosis, and are made up of only one or maybe two sessions of it at that. Traditional Hypnosis is nothing more than a set of direct commands: "If you eat a brownie you'll vomit."  "You won't have cravings and urges," etc..  This technology has an unbelievably poor track record of success because the people in our generation have been taught to question everything they are told.  That's why you, your friends, and your kids usually do the opposite of what they are told to do. This is called a polarity response.That being said, having private sessions with any therapist / NLP'er who has enough experience to be able to actually help you can cost a great deal of money. There are some hypnotic programs based on Ericksonian Hypnosis and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) that have overcome those shortcomings.  They've accomplished this by utilizing a mix of Ericksonian Hypnosis, NLP, Traditional Hypnosis, and the highly regarded Video Hypnosis technology.  These are all modalities that are designed to get rid of the resistance factor.  In fact, Video Hypnosis and the NLP technology that it's based on do not utilize suggestion at all.  They rely on using the thought processes that have created a problem, to eliminate it! Look for vendors who offer these methods in multi-session products.  These are programs that generally have six to eight different hypnosis or NLP sessions, so you are exposed to a broad variety of techniques.  It takes a lot of work to script and record this type of program, but the high success rates achieved are well worth the effort. I recommend that you stay away from the "one size fits all" -- "do-or-die" hypnotherapy CDs and downloads.  Many people are lured in by these CDs because they are very inexpensive, usually under $10.00.  But is it cheap if it just wastes your valuable time and doesn't work?  If you buy a program and it doesn't work, then you get guarded and start to expect the next approach to fail.  And you get what you expect.  Do you really think that the same exact commands will work for everyone?  Do you think that they will work for you?  Do you typically do exactly as you are told to do?  Or do you feel a desire to do the opposite of what you are told to do?
