Dispelling a few myths about hypnosis

 

I DON'T LIKE BEING OUT OF CONTROL! 
You can't be controlled by anyone using hypnosis

 
  This is a common mistake brought about by stage hypnosis.  It appears that the stage hypnotist has complete control over the volunteer but that's not the case at all - people involved in stage shows want to act out the suggestions they are given and they can refuse to do so if they wish.

I don't deal in stage show tricks but run a professional practice where we work together using hypnosis and therapy to create positive and effective change in your life.

At any point in the therapy session you can open your eyes and bring yourself out of hypnosis if you wish to - you are in control at all times.

 

WHAT IF I GET STUCK IN HYPNOSIS AND CAN'T GET OUT!
You can't get stuck in hypnosis!
 

 
 

There is no magic word to put you into hypnosis or bring you out of it that only the hypnotist knows.  Shallow Hal may be a very funny film but hypnosis doesn't work that way.

It's a safe and natural state of relaxation - have you ever heard of anyone getting stuck in relaxation?  In the very worst case if you went into hypnosis and the hypnotist left the room, you would probably notice that it was very quiet and nothing seemed to be happening and you would open your eyes and bring yourself out of hypnosis.

 

YOU CAN'T HYPNOTISE ME! 
You're Right - If you don't want to go into hypnosis then you won't

 
   It's only when you decide that you want to go into hypnosis in order to help with any changes you want to make that you will go into hypnosis - you will, in fact, "put yourself in hypnosis", I'll only guide and help you along the way. 

Hypnosis is safe and natural - once you're in hypnosis, I can start to use the "therapy bit" to help you - see Hypnotherapy for more information on this.  In fact, hypnosis is something that your body and mind learns to do and the more you do it, the better you'll be at it.
