Thoughts and feelings are usually associated with the responses remembered and learnt as a result of a particular event. These are then stored in the brain, only to be repeated automatically when the identical or similar scenario presents itself.
Hypnosis is an exercise which can manipulate these thoughts by adding or suggesting a different response to the event. All this has to be done on an individual in a deep state of relaxation or trance.
Loosely explained, hypnosis is an exercise of therapy which induces a deep relaxation state of body and mind and then uses this state of mind to introduce thoughts or images into the consciousness.
This is also referred to as being in a deep trance like state or deep "sleep". This deeply centered state is unusually responsive to an thought or image in its otherwise contrary form. However it is not possible to take control of the individual's mind and free will at any given time. In most legitimate hypnosis sessions the body is brought to a relaxed state and the thoughts become more centered. Certain changes in the brain wave activities occur during this state of hypnotically induced trance. Though now totally relaxed physically, the state of the mind is totally alert and highly responsive to suggestions and thoughts. It should be notes that some people respond better and faster to hypnotic suggestions than others. In the first place, you'll need to make certain that you will not be distracted for at the least half an hour, preferably an 60 minutes. Switch off phones, and tell loved ones and aquain10ces not to trouble you. Find a comfy place. Someplace that's neat and tidy, and of a comfortable temperature.
Reduce the lighting if this assists you. If you like, you could fire up some candles and burn some incense. You are able to be seated, or you can lay down – whichever you favor. Importantly make certain that your legs are not crossed, as they could end up going to sleep after half an hour.
1. Shut your eyes and conduct 10 easy deep breaths – in by the nose, and out by the mouth. Say to yourself the word 'Relax' on every out breath. 2. Think of yourself at the top of 10 steps, with a doorway at the bottom. With every slow step you take downward, feel yourself getting more deeply relaxed.
3. Once you arrive at the bottom open the door to your paragon place of relaxation. It may be a beach, a garden, anyplace. It could be someplace real, or imaginary – your own uniquely particular relaxing haven.
