What is Hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a valuable adjunct in psychotherapy and psychiatry. Yet it is probably the lowest risk procedure available from the standpoint of contraindications.
Most hypnotherapist, on interviewing a new client will ask the client what he or she thinks hypnosis is.
Replies range from sleep to unconsciousness,
to surrender of mental powers.
All are in error.
Hypnosis is a means of communication between
the conscious and the unconscious mind.
Many human problems, attitudes or apparent deficiencies
can be traced to interpretations by the unconscious mind
which, when understood by the conscious mind,
can reduce or resolve specific problems.
