The truth about hypnotherapy

There are many misconceptions about what hypnotherapy is and how it will make you feel – are you asleep, is someone else in control? The truth is that you are totally in control and in a state of deep relaxation. Hypnotherapy is a procedure which addresses the sub-conscious mind – the part of your brain which stores habits – almost like a database.

During a hypnotherapy session the focus will be on redressing the balance of your stored memory bank – for instance, your sub-conscious mind cannot know that smoking is harmful, it just recognises it as a habit. By ‘re-programming’ your sub-conscious mind to know that cigarettes are bad will help your conscious mind to accept this is an automatic fact and therefore stop you doing it.

This principle works for many of life’s bad habits, anxieties and phobias so you can relax in the knowledge that help is at hand and you can look forward to a positive and confident future.
