Frequently asked Questions (FAQ)

• Can anyone be Hypnotised?
• Will I be asleep?
• Will you be able to control my mind?
• Surely stage hypnosis could control my mind?
• Are there any side effects?
• Can I get stuck in a trance?
• Will I tell you something that I don’t want you to know?

No contrary to popular opinion you are not asleep during hypnosis. You are fully aware of what is happening and what is being said to you. You give the impression of being totally asleep because your body is totally relaxed, but hypnotic sleep bears no resemblance to normal sleep.

No this is a common misconception. Hypnotheraphy is about you having more control of your own mind, so the client is the one that has control. Nothing will be said to you under hypnosis that is not for your benefit, but if you didn’t agree with anything your mind would just reject it.

No if someone volunteers to be hypnotised by a stage hypnotist they know what they are letting themselves in for, they know they are going to be an object of fun for entertainment purposes, but they are game for a laugh and happy to go along with it. If someone was dragged out of the audience against their will, then whatever the stage hypnotist tried it would not work.

No, there are absolutely no negative side effects from being hypnotised. It is perfectly safe and natural way of using your own inner resources to reorganise your thoughts and behaviours to bring about a beneficial change. After the session you will feel relaxed and safe to drive, operate machinery or any thing else.

No, it’s impossible to get stuck in a trance. You can open your eyes at any time during the session, ending the hypnotic state immediately. Sometimes clients get so relaxed they don’t want to end the session, but never stay in trance.

Will I tell you something I don’t want you to know?

No, you remain in control the whole time. If there is something that you prefer to keep private then that is your choice.

Hypnosis is a state of mind in which a person remains calm concentrated and aware, whilst there body becomes completely relaxed. This altered state of awareness allows access to the subconscious mind, having relaxed the though processes of the conscious mind. The subject is not asleep and is aware of what is being said to them and are aware of any noises in their environment, as their normal physical abilities are not impaired. It’s similar to being engrossed in a television program whilst hearing a conversation in the background. Basically all else fades into unimportance.

Hypnotherapy is the treatment of emotional and psychological conditions, unwanted habits and undesirable feelings. The aim is to assist in finding meaningful alternatives to their present unsatisfactory ways of thinking feeling or behaving.

Hypnotherapy also helps become more accepting both of themselves and others, and can be useful in promoting self development and unlocking inner potential. Hypnotherapy involves inducing a client into Hypnosis, then making positive suggestions that are appropriate to their problem.

Phobias are extremely common. Sometimes they start in childhood for no apparent reason, sometimes they can emerge after a traumatic event or sometimes they can be linked to anxiety.
