What is Hypnosis or Trance?
Hypnosis is a method of communication that induces a trance or a trance-like state. Hypnosis can be conducted by one individual addressing another, or it may be conducted with the self (self-hypnosis). Trance is a naturally occurring state in which one's attention is narrowly focused and relatively free of distractions. The attention may be focused either internally (on thoughts---internal self-talk or images or both) or externally (on a task, a book, or a movie, for example). The focus of attention is so narrow that other stimuli in the environment are ignored or blocked out of conscious awareness for a time. Examples of trance states are daydreaming and some forms of meditation.
As an adjunct to psychotherapy, hypnosis can help clients enter a relaxed, comfortable, trance state for obtaining specific therapeutic outcomes. With clinical hypnosis, the therapist can make suggestions designed to help the client formulate specific internal processes (feelings, memories, images and internal self-talk) that will lead to mutually-agreed-upon outcomes.
Hypnotic suggestions can influence behavior when the listener is
(a) relaxed, receptive and open to the suggestions
(b) experiences visual, auditory, and/or kinesthetic representations of the suggestions
(c) anticipates and envisions that these suggestions will result in future outcomes.
These three criteria are facilitated through the use of "hypnotic language patterns." Hypnotic language patterns include: guided visualization, stories, guided memories, analogies, ambiguous words or phrases, repetition, and statements about association, meaning, and cause-effect.
Myths and Misconceptions about Hypnosis
advertisement
Hypnosis is not mind control or brainwashing. People change their minds and actions throughout their lives. When such changes occur as a result of exposure to specific information, it is because this information has been presented through persuasion and influence. A hypnotherapist uses communicative methods of persuasion and influence; so do people who advertise and market goods and services; so do teachers, politicians, lawyers, entertainers, parents, and ministers.
During trance, you are not immobilized. You know exactly where you are the entire time. You can adjust your position, scratch, sneeze, or cough. You can open your eyes and bring yourself out of trance at any time you wish. During trance, you can still hear sounds around you, like a phone ringing. You can alert yourself and respond to any situation that needs your immediate attention. You remain oriented as to person, place, and time. You can even hold a conversation in trance.
Trance is not sleep, although some people get so relaxed in trance that they may fall asleep. This is no problem because some part of the mind continues to listen to the voice of the hypnotherapist. In trance, sleeping subjects can still follow instructions such as moving a finger, taking a deep breath, or awakening themselves when they are told to do so.
There is no "right" way to experience trance. One person may experience it as a deep, heavy restful feeling, while another may experience it as a light, floating sensation. Some people hear every word spoken by the therapist, while others allow their minds to drift to other thoughts. Some experience vivid imagery, while others do not. Some people remember the suggestions they hear, and some do not. Every person's experience of hypnosis is unique.
Hypnosis cannot cause anyone to do something against their will or that contradicts their values. First, a hypnotherapist is ethically required to make only those suggestions that support agreed-upon outcomes. Second, clients are not receptive to suggestions that go against their morals or values---because receptivity is one of the ingredients of success in hypnosis.
Remember: hypnosis cannot solve every problem. Even with hypnosis, it may still be necessary for you to do some conscientious planning and research about the types of changes you want to achieve. You must still take action to get results. Hypnosis is not a cure-all. Hypnosis can be effective in many cases, but there are no guarantees that hypnosis will work for you.
Risks and Precautions
Hypnosis carries very few risks. Hypnosis may be contraindicated for individuals with certain medical problems, or who are actively abusing drugs or alcohol, or who are delusional or hallucinatory. Hypnosis should not be used for physical problems, such as pain, unless the client has first consulted a physician to determine underlying physical causes.
Formal hypnotic methods are not recommended for small children, because children lack the necessary attention span. More interactive treatment methods can be used, however, such as art therapy, play therapy, storytelling, and guided visualization, during which helpful suggestions can be made to the child.
Hypnosis is often requested for the purpose of uncovering childhood memories. Hypnosis may or may not work in this regard. When memories do surface, the client may have a "false memory" and there is no guarantee that such memories are accurate or based on reality. Such memories may be uncomfortable and distressing, but not always.
Sometimes after trancework, the client may feel somewhat disoriented. The therapist and the client can work together to make sure the client is fully alert and energized sufficiently to leave the therapist's office and continue the day's activity. In very rare cases, after a hypnotic session, and client may experience mildly disturbing thoughts or feelings. If this happens, the client should call the therapist immediately for a follow-up session.
Ericksonian Hypnosis
The kind of hypnotherapy most frequently practiced in psychotherapy today is "Ericksonian Hypnosis," named after the late Milton H. Erickson, M.D. From the 1930's to the 1980's Dr. Erickson was very influential in bringing the use of clinical hypnosis into the fields of medicine and psychotherapy. He taught and practiced a kind of hypnosis that was gentle, permissive, and respectful of the client. He established the National Association for Clinical Hypnosis and published the first professional journals and monographs on the therapeutic uses of hypnosis. The Ericksonian Foundation continues his work. Hundreds of books and articles have been written about Dr. Erickson and his methods. Dr. Erickson has been regarded as the leading hypnotherapist in the world.
Applications of Hypnotherapy
Hypnosis has many applications in therapeutic settings. Among them are:
Building Confidence
Relaxation During Childbirth
Treating Phobias, Fears and Anxiety
Sleep Disorders and Disturbances

Hypnosis for Past Life Regression
PAST LIVES - REAL OR IMAGINED?
There has been a lot of interest and controversy about Past Lives lately. Even some medical doctors are getting in on this powerful, healing therapy. One in particular is Brian Weiss MD. who wrote Many Lives, Many Masters. As a result of his experience there is a new field of clinical therapy that almost requires past life regression. A recent book I was reading about healing cancer (by an MD.) stated that part of his required therapeutic approach is 2 weeks of past life regression.
We sure don't know why, but we do know it has a profound effect on some people's lives. Many illnesses somehow miraculously clear up after a client finds a past life that held that same trauma. In my practice I have experienced a client releasing a life long phobia, and another finding a driving purpose in this life that went unfulfilled in past lives. I have observed symptoms of a physical nature clear up, and those of an intense emotional origin be released.
One man released a 20 year old stomach pain after find it's cause in a past life. As a result this client also experiences profound peace in his current life. In almost every past life case I have seen, there is a major positive change in the person's life. So, why is this? Some of my clients don't even believe in past lives, have never inquired about it and yet, when asking their subconscious to take them to the cause of the problem, their "higher self" takes them to the origin of the problem and it happens to be in another body, in another time. And everyone of them experiences it as very real and relevant to the struggles they are experiencing.
Another interesting event is when someone "sees" a friend or loved one in the past life and recognizes them, beyond any doubt, even though that person is in a totally different body. Usually they are sure of familiarity. They tell me they just know. Sometimes a client "sees" a loved one who has died and it can bring great comfort to have a new understanding of the relationship and the death process. In all cases it has been a positive, life changing experience. This is a therapy that is definitely worth more exploration. For a while I thought it was only the result of imagination and it would go where the client wanted it to go. For instance, a client may have wanted to have been someone famous. In reality that's is not usually the case. No amount of wishing will make you go into the past life of your choice. It seems to be out of the conscious control of the client. But remember, it is always a positive and healing experience. The important thing to keep in mind is to continue with the therapy until the issue is clear. The benefit is sometimes beyond earthly description.
My belief about past lives? It could be only imagination, the collective unconscious, a metaphorical way for the mind to find answers, or a journey to a life that we have lived before. Even after long hours of guiding clients through past lives, I know this: We don't know all there is to know!
Hypnosis will help you access your past life records, and heal the past. The hypnotherapy process is safe and healing with a competent past life therapist. Find out how easy it is to experience this life changing therapy.
Love Sanju.
