Therapy details - Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapy and hypnosis are derived from the Greek word "Hypnos" meaning sleep. Hypnosis is a relaxing naturally occurring state of mind which happens to us every day. Each night before we drift off to sleep or when we float off in a daydream we are in a natural state of hypnosis.
Don't expect to feel hypnotised.
Many people expect to feel hypnotised but the "trance" state may not feel very different from the waking state. Sometimes people have false expectations or ideas because they have seen stage shows or movies that make trance out to look something other that what it actually is.
Do expect to feel relaxed.
Most people will actually describe the trance state as being a relaxed state ranging somewhere between relaxation and profound or deep relaxation. It all depends on the individual. So you can expect to feel relaxed. It's also important for you to know that.....
YOU will be in total control the entire time.
