“Hypnotherapy accelerates the healing because you are working directly with the subconscious mind where all the memories and beliefs are stored, and with the body where all the anxiety, inhibition, and shame are stored.” (Wellness Institute)
Hypnotherapy…..hmmm….. You are looking for a therapist to help you. You know what psychotherapy is. Maybe you know what hypnotherapy is — or maybe not. What you do know is that you want relief, solutions, a more balanced and joyful life.
What is this hypnotherapy stuff and how can it help you? This page tells you what it is and what it is not, how using the mind-body-spirit approach is helpful, and examples of issues that respond well to hypnotherapy.
WHAT IS HEART-CENTERED HYPNOTHERAPY®?
Hypnotherapy is psychotherapy using a natural relaxed state that allows you to make significant changes in your life by looking deeply into your subconscious. When using this relaxed state during therapy, accelerated learning takes place, similar to the absorption of learning that children experience.
I find it gentle and deep to promote wellness. That is not to say you won’t have intense emotions, for that is the very point of heart-centered hypnotherapy® – getting to the root problem and letting your emotional self heal using your what the sub-conscious part of you already knows. Your body will let you know what it needs to do, your emotional part has been holding in what is frightening, and your spirit/soul becomes alive.
Throughout the day, everyone goes in and out of this relaxed state whenever we daydream or “zone out”. These moments are called hypnotic trances. Hypnotic trances are the simple shifting back and forth between the conscious and sub-conscious mind and is common to everyone.
Our conscious mind is engaged in thinking, planning, analyzing, and short-term memory. Just 10% of our minds are used for these activities! The other 90% occurs in our sub-conscious minds. These include emotions and feelings, habit and relationship patterns, creativity, spiritual connections, intuition, and long-term memories.
What distinguishes hypnotherapy that is heart-centered is that sessions begin with unconditional love within the heart-center of the therapist and then reaches into the heart, mind and spirit of the client. Heart-Centered Hypnotherapy® touches the deepest humanity, the heart and soul of each client, to bring powerful healing in each session. In this way the overall length of treatment is shortened and healing is profound and noticeable.
WHAT HYPNOTHERAPY IS NOT
Hypnotherapy is not something that someone else does TO you to make you do or say silly things. Your therapist is a guide just as she is in psychotherapy, asking questions, making observations, pointing out connections. Hypnotherapy is not stage hypnosis. You are not laughed at or judged. When hypnotherapy is being used you are not out of control. Do you have questions about hypnotherapy? Please contact me and I will answer your questions and concerns.
