I am not sure of the reason, but clients I have been seeing recently are the most enthusiastic about the benefits of hypnotherapy.

They arrive in an excited state to find out more.  They adapt quickly to what hypnosis can do. 

Here is what hypnotherapy can do for you:

• Ease and eliminate fears, panic and anxiety.
• Ease and eliminate chronic pain.
• Ease and eliminate teeth grinding.
• Ease and eliminate Tinnitus.
• Ease and eliminate chronic stress.
• Ease and eliminate insomnia.
• Improve relationships.
• Quit smoking.
• Lose weight.
• Improve motivation in sports or your professional career.
• Ease and eliminate your fear of public speaking and performances on stage.
• Pre- and post-operative preparation and healing.
• Strengthening your immune system.
• Ease and eliminate your fear of dentists.
• Less painful childbirth.
• Improve focus and concentration.
• Eliminate procrastination and writers block.
• Improve study habits and eliminate exam anxiety.
• Cancer and chemotherapy relief.

Hypnotherapy can help you with other matters, including a stroke. I have had limited success helping stroke victims recapture some of their previously lost movements. Hypnotherapy strongly helps a stroke victim’s attitude.

Stroke victims tend to become depressed at loss of function. They feel different, lonely, a burden to others. This leads to depression, no desire to be better than the person presently is. They see themselves as having lost the ability to do anything. Therefore, they give up.

I remind stroke clients of the following. Yes, they appear to be different. But if I put them in a room with other stroke victims, none would appear abnormal. 

I encourage them to stop thinking of all the things they no longer can do. Focus  on what they can do. That means that they need to put in effort to see what they can do. I assure them they are not burdens to their loving, supportive families.

I offer a suggestion to their subconscious that the brain begins to seek new pathways to create the movement that they once had. Since we only use five percent of our brain potential, it is possible that when the brain is asked, it can find alternate pathways to creating the movement they once had. I have seen it work, though not in all cases.

As clients begin to feel better, they become more positive, willing to try to be better.

For the first two sessions, one depressed client said he wanted to die. At his third session, he wanted to live. Why the change?

Even though his body was incapacitated, he realized his mind was not. He put his mind to great effect by writing, by sharing his experiences within his old industry. He told others what he knew. He published a book and now sees a small income from it.

Hypnotherapy is quite useful. It is becoming more widely accepted throughout the world, in particular by the National Health in the U.K., Canada and Australia, to a more limited degree in the USA. But attitudes are changing for the better.
