The most effective way to help clients succeed is to frame it in such an appealing way that there seems to be no other choice. Hypnosis taps into the imagination where individuals are guided to not only release the unproductive past, but to also anticipate success. It is so much easier when you feel as though you are simply trading-up to something better.
This can be so effective that many weight loss clients feel lighter before the scale shows any change. Prior to hypnosis their only approach to solving their problem was to obsess about it, figure it out, or out smart it. Hypnosis releases the battle and connects you to the fast track to success. In fact, many of my weight loss clients have said they felt lighter after the initial session.
Once the shift is initiated, the next step is to repeat the hypnotic solution frequently enough to support lasting success. If repetition creates problems then why not use the same approach to establish solutions. Clients receive a high quality recording of each session and my prescription is to ‘press play once a day’.
At times we all feel as though we are prisoners of one bad habit or another, something we just can’t shake or quit. My approach with hypnosis is all about the patterns and their roots. If we make the mistake of picking up a cigarette when we are very young and become a routine smoker, the smoking pattern, or habit, becomes rooted in the subconscious mind.
Once a pattern becomes rooted it is difficult to undo. The good news is that hypnosis gives you the power to change, power of thought. Hypnosis is the gateway to the subconscious mind making it comfortably easy to take control.
Keys to success:
Genuine desire to do what you say you want to do
Be open minded and follow instructions
Routine home reinforcement so new pattern becomes rooted
Hypnosis is a great tool supporting sobriety and healthy living. I help clients tap into the euphoric bliss of naturally occurring endorphin flow. Once individuals experience such profound relaxation, and incorporate it into their daily routine, most find it comfortably easy to maintain a substance-free lifestyle.
In addition to the feel good serenity of deep trance hypnosis, sessions include specific suggestions and imagery supporting healthy success. The subconscious then pulls in this new information and starts to piece together a new operating system of change. Listening to sessions routinely for a period of 2-3 months forms a foundation of healthy change.
We are creatures of habit, whatever we repeat, good or bad, becomes rooted in the hard drive, the subconscious mind. Hypnosis helps individuals to release unwanted patterns and plants new preferred alternatives. The transition to sobriety experienced with hypnosis is usually comfortable.
The process helps individuals feel as though they are ‘trading up’ to something better.If the individual has a legitimate desire to create healthy change; is open to be guided into hypnosis; and is consistent listening to sessions on their own; success is hard to avoid.
Most excessive drinkers initially have goals of moderation, being able to drink socially but that usually changes at some point through the process. Whatever they thought they got from alcoholis healthfully replaced by the meditative qualities of hypnosis. Clients like the way they feel, they sleep better, have more energy and are happier. [more]
