Hypnosis requires your commitment, your desire to be successful.
It has nothing to do with the hypnotherapist taking control and it is also a myth that intelligent people can't be hypnotized.
A hypnotic state builds on your focus, intelligence and creativity.
Anyone who desires hypnosis, who can focus can achieve a relaxed state.
A hypnotist doesn't hypnotize anybody. The hypnotist is an educator, showing the participant how to do it themselves.
Hypnosis is a natural state of mind that we all use regularly. For instance, when we're daydreaming or every night falling into sleep and again upon awakening.
The hypnotist's role is to guide the participant from Beta brainwaves into the slower brainwave patterns.
BETA WAVES - 14Hz to 20Hz. Normal waking consciousness. You are in a Beta pattern when you are focused on your daily activities in the outside world.
ALPHA WAVES - 8Hz to 13Hz. Light meditation. Alpha pattern is prevalent when you daydream. Many people switch between Alpha and Beta during the day when they change their thoughts between focused and recalling or remembering something. Alpha Waves may be achieved just by closing your eyes.
THETA WAVES - 4Hz to 7Hz. Deep meditative states and states of intuitive creativity.
DELTA WAVES - .5Hz to 3Hz. Deep meditation or deep sleep state.
Learn to Control your Brainwaves
How slow you need the brainwave patterns to be depends on what you desire the hypnosis session to achieve.
For therapeutic work, a lighter state is required so you can respond to questions asked by the hypnotherapist. For surgery, a deep state is desired.
