Hypnosis

 Hypnosis -- is a type of nonstandard or "complementary and alternative medicine" treatment. It uses guided relaxation, intense concentration, and focused attention to achieve a heightened state of awareness that is sometimes called a trance. The person's attention is so focused while in this state that anything going on around the person is temporarily blocked out or ignored. In this naturally occurring state, a person may focus their attention -- with the help of a trained practitioner -- on specific thoughts or tasks.

How Does Hypnosis Work?

Hypnosis is usually considered an aid to delving deeper in one’s mind because the hypnotic state allows people to explore painful thoughts, feelings, and memories they might have hidden from their conscious minds. In addition, hypnosis enables people to perceive some things differently, such as blocking an awareness of pain.

Hypnosis can be used in two ways, as suggestion therapy or for patient analysis.

• Suggestion technique: The hypnotic state makes the person better able to      respond to suggestions. Therefore, hypnotherapy can help some people      change certain behaviors, such as stopping overeating, smoking or nail      biting. It can also help people change perceptions and sensations and is      particularly useful in treating pain.
• Analysis/Past Life Regression:  This approach uses the relaxed state to explore a possible psychological root cause of a disorder or symptom, such as a traumatic past event that a person has hidden in their unconscious memory. Once the trauma is revealed, it can be addressed. 

What Are the Benefits of Hypnosis?

The hypnotic state allows a person to be more open to discussion and suggestion. It can improve the success of other treatments for many conditions, including:

• Phobias, fears, and anxiety
• Sleep disorders
• Depression
• Stress
• Post-trauma anxiety
• Grief and loss

Once again Hypnosis also might be used to help with pain control and to overcome habits, such as overeating. 

Hypnosis is a natural way to achieve an altered state of mind where your conscious mind is relaxed so that your subconscious mind can receive positive suggestions.

You might be surprised to know that all hypnosis is self-hypnosis. 

Tuesday is trained to guide you into this relaxed state of mind, yet you are the one with all the control. The subconscious mind stores all our emotions, thoughts, beliefs, and memories it also contains all our values and core beliefs about ourselves. By accessing the subconscious mind through deep relaxation, we can begin to reprogram those beliefs to introduce positive and healthy habits. 

Many studies show that 95% of our brain activity occurs at a subconscious level which means that only 5% of our brain activity is occurring on a conscious level. 

While in hypnosis, you are very relaxed, fully conscious, hear everything that is said, never do anything you do not want to do, and remember the entire session.

Tuesday will use this relaxed natural state to help you reach Your unique goals.
