How Hypnosis Can Help You to Achieve Your Goal
In the modern world, you have a variety of ways to accomplish your goals. If you want to stop overeating, you can join a health club or a clinic. You can also take diet pills or see a therapist. If you want to quit smoking, you can join a self-help group. You can talk to a doctor or you can use over-the-counter medications.
Sometimes, however, nothing seems to work. The self-help group sessions fail. The medication is only a temporary fix. At this point, you might want to consider self hypnosis. You might be surprised at how hypnosis can help you.
What is Self Hypnosis?
Self hypnosis is not stage hypnosis. It is identical in methods and generally intent of hypnotherapy performed by a professional. The techniques remain similar. The intent - to help and guide the individual afflicted with or affected by a specific problem or issue, remains the same. The only different is the medium of delivery.
Self hypnosis does not use an intermediary. It does not rely on another person - except, perhaps for books and audio material. Self hypnosis, or autohypnosis, requires the commitment of only one person - you. It places the responsibility and control of taking back your life in your hands.
Self hypnosis is not a lack of consciousness. While you may go into a trance-like state to achieve your goals, you do so consciously. You are very aware of what you are doing, your intent and how to reach it. Self hypnosis is the means to an end. It is a powerful tool involving establishing first what interferes with you reaching your goal. Self hypnosis realizes all the good intentions, programs and drugs are not going to work if you do not understand why you fail repeatedly. It also comprehends the reason behind the failure - your subconscious. If you want to change the pattern, you need to know how hypnosis works.
How Hypnosis Works
It is not difficult to understand how hypnosis works. Self hypnosis works with you and your conscious and subconscious self. It uses visualisation as a major tool to reach down into your subconscious to root out what is negative and preventing you from reaching your goals. You use the powers of visualisation and audio tapes, downloads, MP3 or iPod equipment.
By sitting down on a regular basis, preferably daily, you use the material to help you retrain your subconscious. You find a comfortable place in your own home. Play the audio and visualize the replacement of the negative with the positive. Using your ability to reach down into your subconscious, you visualise the process of moving towards your goal.
By daily reinforcing this image of you as being healthy, a non-smoker, a successful dieter and/or someone without irrational or debilitating fears, you gradually replace the objections of your subconscious to your goals. You remove the final blocks against your becoming what you want to be. As a result, you emerge at the end of the sometime long and definitely slow process as the person who has achieved the ultimate goal - self realization.
The actual process is not, as noted, a singular act. It requires dedication and repetition. You need to reinforce your goal or goals on a daily basis. You also need to prepare or choose material that is suitable for your needs. A variety of tapes is essential. This helps reduce the monotony that can accompany the constant but necessary repetition that comes from playing the tapes repeatedly. For this purpose, prepare several tapes carefully or either download or purchase on or offline appropriate material.
How can I use it?
You can apply self hypnosis to help you solve virtually any problem. The most common issues people use hypnosis to address, however, are:
Self hypnosis is also great for your work in meditation and other forms of concentration.
If you truly want to reach your ultimate goal, no matter what it is, consider how hypnosis can help you reach a positive conclusion. By using what you have and what you know, you can seize control of your life.
