Hypnosis Myths

“Hypnosis Myths”

by James Hazlerig

Hypnosis Myth #1:

Because of cartoons and b-grade horror movies, a lot of people think that hypnotists have
the power to control other people’s minds.

If that were true, why would hypnotists waste their time helping people like you stop
smoking, shed pounds, manage stress, overcome fears, and get relief from chronic pain—
all for a lot less than conventional medicine costs?

If hypnosis were mind control, wouldn’t hypnotists just walk into banks and walk out
with all the money?

Well, it turns out that hypnosis is not what you saw on television. That’s right—Saturday
morning cartoons lied to you!

While hypnosis won’t let a hypnotist control your actions, it can let you gain more control
over your own habits, cravings, reactions, and limiting beliefs. In other words, it helps
you control your mind—which helps you control your life.

Hypnosis Myth #2: Amnesia

Hypnotist: Have you ever been hypnotized?
Client: Not that I recall!

It’s a popular misconception that if you can remember what happened, you weren’t really
hypnotized. This is nonsense.

Some people do experience amnesia during hypnosis. However, most people remember
the entire experience, especially the first several times. For some, it’s a little hazy, like a
quickly forgotten dream. For others, it’s a bit like a movie—you know you were alert the
whole time, but you might not remember every single scene later.

The good news is that you can experience all the benefits of hypnosis while remaining
aware the whole time and recalling every detail.

Is It Your Time to Stop Smoking?

So much more than your health depends on it!

Over the last several decades the public has been made aware of the dangers of smoking.

As a clinical and medical hypnotherapist, and life and business coach, I see many people for smoking cessation. Over the years I have worked with thousands of people to successfully overcome their habit of smoking. Often these smokers are simply fed up with smell, the taste, and the unwanted health side-effects that come from smoking. Perhaps they are unable to walk, run or exercise without the burn in their chest and lungs. Perhaps a cough has developed and they know it is time to stop before their health is irreparably damaged. Perhaps they have friends and family that have expressed concern and they can no longer be around the self-destructive lifestyle. There are many reasons to stop smoking and most of them center on a person’s health.

You visit your doctor and he frowns, saying, “You need to relax!”…but, he doesn’t tell you HOW to relax!

In today’s hectic, modern world, our minds and bodies are in hyper-drive, often engaged in what has been termed as the “fight or flight response”.

Fear of Heights

Fear of Heights

by Kelley Woods, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist

Some people get queasy just thinking about standing at the edge of a cliff or being on a bridge.
Now, this isn’t something that would normally restrict their everyday enjoyment of life, but what if the sufferer was in construction or perhaps worked in an office high in a skyscraper? This might certainly impede on their daily comfort levels, inciting anxiety and sometimes, in more severe cases, panic attacks!

A fear of heights might keep a person from taking a trip up a mountain, go skiing or getting the chance to view a scenic vista. Being uncomfortable in elevated places is actually one of the natural reactions we have from birth, but when fears become accelerated and start to restrict our life experience, it’s time to take action!

Fears and phobias can build over time or they can come on suddenly, for no apparent reason.
Many times, a fear of heights may actually be a result of something completely unrelated to height itself…like stress or loss.
The automatic panicky feelings that result are hard wired into the brain, traveling along neural pathways.

Hypnosis helps to reconstruct these pathways, providing detours and alternate routes…ones which are not only more comfortable, but are conducive to how a person wants to experience their environment.

Sometimes, this switch can happen almost spontaneously while in other cases, it is more of a process.

Along with the relief of no longer being susceptible to uncontrollable, negative reactions to heights comes a sense of confidence and strength, which can gravitate to other areas of life. Hypnosis clients enjoy many benefits of learning how to use their dynamic subconscious minds to make helpful changes.
