Hypnotic regression explained

We all have within us an unlimited source of wisdom. Sometimes we forget to look inside in order to bring balance to our lives. That's when we feel overwhelmed by our circumstances and depressed. But we can reconnect with our essence to create harmony in our lives, understand each other better, and have peace. One of the most powerful tools to achieve this is the technique known as hypnotic regression therapy.

In hypnotic regression therapy you can recall the memories that cause depression and anxiety to bring emotional health. The psychiatrist leads the patient to an internal inspection of these experiences to rid the person of the effect caused by them. The strands of your existence unravel through this exploration. This way you will be free from any effect of your past. You will better understand the effect of the past on your current life issues and be able to bring about positive actions to improve the quality of your life.

Regression therapy is an excellent way to combat depression and anxiety. When used alone or with other therapies such as medications it can bring quick relief from neuropsychiatric symptoms. Examining the patterns of your life leads to understanding. And understanding allow you to make positive changes in your life. The chains of vicious cycles are broken because the past no longer dictates the present. Current relations are explored in order to and live better. And above all you open to that inner wisdom that guides us to a better life and greater growth.

Not everyone experiences the same as hypnotic regression. Some people have vivid experiences that involve all of their senses. Other people have a subtle experience or impressions recalling distant fragments. Some people may have revelatory experiences in their first few sessions and others may take a little longer. But for all these people regression serves as a vehicle for healing and self improvement.

Exploring your life course through regression therapy is a safe and effective way to achieve emotional health. In the hands of a qualified psychiatrist it is a very powerful therapy. It improves relationships with others and ourselves. And it brings greater happiness.

Hypnosis explained

Medical Hypnosis is the process of learning how to use your mind and your thoughts to better handle emotional stress (anxiety, depression, phobias, obsessions), uncomfortable physical symptoms (pain, nausea) or to help you change a habit or behavior (smoking, aggression, eating patterns). Medical Hypnosis is a technique or procedure used in the context of a self-improvement process involving combinations of different techniques to achieve the goals set by the patient.

Medical hypnosis should be made only by health professionals trained and licensed (eg psychiatrists) that have been specifically trained to use hypnosis and working practices within their professional field.

How will I feel during hypnosis?

Most people describe their experience of hypnosis as a pleasant experience during which they have great focus and feel deep in the hypnotic experience.

Depending on the goals of the session you may feel more alert, more relaxed or just comfortable and with peace of mind.

Although a hypnosis session may differ depending on the needs of each patient sessions typically have two basic phases:

1) The induction phase. During this phase the therapist helps you relax and helps you focus and concentrate on what you want to accomplish during the hypnosis session.

2) The application stage. During this phase the therapist provides you with suggestions. For example, if you are experiencing anxiety, you can suggest that during and following the hypnosis session you will feel calmer and more comfortable with feelings of anxiety. If you are experiencing pain, your therapist may suggest that after the hypnosis session you will not experience pain or that you can better manage any pain you feel. The suggestions are the key to hypnosis because they are targeted to treat your specific symptoms or difficulty.

Myths and facts about medical hypnosis:

Many people have concerns and myths about hypnosis based on lack of information. The following are common concerns about hypnosis and the reality of hypnosis.

Myth: The hypnotized person is under the control of the therapist and can be forced to say or do what the therapist wants.

Reality: This is false. No matter how deep the process of hypnosis you are always in control during the session. Hypnosis can not force you to do or say anything that causes you discomfort or you do not want to do or say.

Myth: Hypnosis is something that is done to people, instead of something I can do on my own.

Reality: This is false. Hypnosis is a skill you can learn. It is a tool you use to feel better.

Myth: I can become trapped in hypnosis and I can not "out" at any time.

Reality: This is false. Hypnosis can end at any time you want.

Myth: People have benefit from hypnosis are gullible or weak willed.

Reality: This is false. Multiple scientific studies have revealed that about 90% of people can benefit from hypnosis. Moreover, being hypnotized and choosing to respond to hypnotic suggestions means only that you have the ability to use hypnosis effectively. This does not mean a person is gullible or weak willed.

Myth: During hypnosis I am unconscious.

Reality: This is false. During hypnosis you are always aware. A person in hypnosis is not asleep or unconscious. Although a person in hypnosis can feel a deep state of relaxation, your mind is active and actively participating in the hypnosis session.
