Being an amazing tool for your health, did you know that a woman under hypnosis delivering a baby via C-section would lose only 20 percent of the blood she normally would lose under anesthetic?
Recovery time is 30 percent faster with hypnosis.
Hypnosis comes from the Greek hypnos, meaning sleep. It is thousands of years old. Hypnosis was used by mystics, magicians, seers and royal families in Europe.
Hypnosis was used in the 18th century by James Braid a British army officer known as the father of modern hypnotism. He employed it to help soldiers requiring amputations or surgeries that today would automatically require an anesthetic. In those times, only alcohol was available to drink and numb or literally be knocked unconscious.
In the late 18th century, Benjamin Franklin was part of a panel in Paris looking into hypnotism and its effectiveness.
Rasputin, a peasant from a farm in Russia, used hypnosis. Eventually he became the personal confidante to the Czarina. Politically, he was so unpopular he was murdered to break his mystical spell over her.
Over the centuries hypnotism has been used for:
Birthing.
Quitting smoking.
Eliminating fears and phobias.
Eliminating panic and anxiety.
Losing weight.
Improving sports performance.
Improving work performance.
Improving memory.
Improving sales abilities.
Sharpening public speaking.
Improving motivation.
Controlling chronic pain.
Managing anger.
Relationship issues.
Calming fear of dentists.
Eliminating fear of needles.
Improving confidence.
Improving your immune system.
Hypnosis is becoming recognized more and more as a powerful adjunct for mental and medical issues. In the mental arena, it is said a hypnotherapist can accomplish in 6 to 10 sessions what a psychologist or psychiatrist would in 600. They spend time with their patients talking with them on a conscious level. A hypnotist talks with them on a subconscious level. Since the conscious is only 10 percent of our brainpower and the subconscious is 90 percent, it is obvious that invoking change must take place within the subconscious.
Change Flows Swiftly
Hypnosis institutes rapid change. The deeper you go into hypnosis, the quicker you achieve results. One out of five persons is a somnambulist, a deep level hypnotic subject. A somnambulist goes to the farthest levels of hypnosis speedily.
As long as you are willing to allow hypnosis to occur, it will. If you do not want to be hypnotized, you cannot. The reality of course is that you would not be seeing a hypnotherapist if you did not want to be hypnotized.
A hypnotist often is a last resort. Some clients who have had great results with me have told me I have succeeded where others have failed.
A doctor referred a client who had been experiencing severe daily pain.
After our session, the woman t was experiencing no pain for the first time in months. Yet when she went back to see the doctor, her pain returned. Why? When she saw me, her subconscious had no idea what to expect. Therefore it responded to the suggestions offered. Why the difference? Her habit patterns said, “When you see the doctor, you are supposed to be in pain.” And so she was.
She came back to me for four sessions, and thereafter her discomfort was vanquished. Once her subconscious recognized she did not need to experience self-imposed pain, she could let go.
Hypnosis is amazing because the power of our minds is. When you understand how to tap the power of your subconscious, you will gain greater success than you thought possible. As you grew, you learned that you have trained your subconscious to give you what you want. Program yourself for that success.
Remember, because we have created our habit patterns does not mean that we do not have the capacity to change. We do.
