Hypnosis is a fancy way to describe an altered state. One that exists in more of a flow and heightened sense of concentration that is accessed when we are very relaxed, but still awake. We all go into hypnosis every day. It is the state you reach right before you fall asleep. When you are teetering between falling asleep, yet still seem to be thinking or seeing images in your mind. It’s the state of driving your car automatically when suddenly you realize you’re headed the wrong way; you snap out of it and wonder what you were thinking.
Hypnosis as a tool for personal development is very useful for improving conditions of stress, discomfort and general patterns of feeling stuck in habits and not finding resolution to problems.
It is believed that the critical or conscious mind represents approximately 5-10% of our brain capacity. The rest, or roughly 90% is comprised of the unconscious mind and or superconscious mind as some would say, which has access to all memory, learnings and patterns of your life.
It is essentially the computer program running behind the scenes of your life. Using hypnosis, an individual can reach a relaxed state and access that automatic part of the mind essentially inserting a new program or positive suggestion for the change they seek. In this way, it isn’t met with the conscious mind’s constant critical analysis that would reject it. Overtime and with repetition, new pathways are formed which lead to the more desired outcome.
