SELF HYPNOSIS
Self-Hypnosis is the mainstay of my practice. My practice is based on the new economic model that states that if I assist you in "moving ahead" I too will "move ahead."
I do not want my clients stuck in my office the rest of their lives. Having trust in the universe that I will be provided for, I help my clients to become quickly and sustainably self reliant. Therefore, usually during the second session of therapy you will learn Self Hypnosis. The value of learning this technique is many-fold and teaches you, my client, an invaluable tool.
Lets touch on a few of the amazing benefits of self hypnosis. First, lets address the stress that we live with. Dr. Walt Stoll, MD (askwaltstollmd.com). states that compared with 100 years ago we are dealing with about 400,000 times (yes you read that number correctly 4 hundred thousand times) the amount of stress. What does that mean to you and what is the effect on you and all of us? In terms of the hypnotherapeutic model, that means that we are living in the "beta brain wave" state. This is also known as the "fight or flight" state. This means that the chemicals/hormones in our body, like cortisol, adrenaline and various others are pumping constantly. As "normally functioning" humans when our bodies produce these natural, body made chemicals/hormones, they are not toxic to us. These hormones/chemicals help us. However, as almost none of us are normally functioning, we are producing these hormones/chemicals in the excess. I am not a medical doctor nor am I a chemist, however, if one takes into account the illness rates in the U.S. alone, it is clear that stress is affecting us in a severely negative manner. Also, to our credit, many studies are being done and have been done that show clearly that this is a fact. The point is that with the practice of self hypnosis, one will quickly be able to undo MUCH of this stress effect.
Dr. Stoll also speaks of a 3 legged stool: Exercise, Diet and Skilled Relaxation (S.R.). I address all of these with you, however Skilled Relaxation is the most important to me and Self Hypnosis is one of many forms of S.R. Dr. Stoll states, after many years of study, that for every 20 minutes of S.R. one completes effectively, the body gets approximately equal to an 8 hour nights rest. Twice daily is recommended.
The next part of self hypnosis is that you take home the protocol and use the "suggestions" that we have come up with for you. With regular practice, hopefully twice daily for 20 minutes a day, it is nearly as effective as 2 sessions of daily therapy with me in my office. Nearly every client that I have ever worked with has practiced their self hypnosis to some extent. Most do not practice it twice daily. Even so, with regular practice, nearly every client I have worked with has had significant change, particularly with their self-esteem.
With regular practice, especially in the first few weeks after learning Self Hypnosis, my clients find that when noticeable stressors come up, they now have a new tool to deal with the stressors immediately and effectively. Clients report that they use the technique for even 30 seconds or a couple of minutes and bring themselves into trance and completely relax. Then, they carry on with the rest of their day, nearly unaffected by the causal factor of stress.
