Hypnosis

What to expect.

A typical hypnosis session takes anywhere from an hour to 90 minutes.

The session will take place in a quiet office where you will not be disturbed for the duration of your time.

The hypnotist will guide you into a relaxed physical and mental state by giving you suggestions to relax and visualise. At first, you'll be are aware of everything, but as you become more relaxed you may pay less attention to what is going on around you.

Experiences can vary from person to person. Some hear the hypnotist's voice fade in and out. Others become so relaxed that they may feel as if they have been sleeping.

It's quite common for people to lose track of time in hypnosis and this is quite normal. It's a bit like dreaming - it is often difficult to tell how long you've been sleeping and the same is true for hypnosis.

In this relaxed state the conscious mind takes on a more passive role and the subconscious mind becomes more receptive to suggestions. The analytical part gets to take a break!

During hypnosis you get a chance to relax, drift off and let your mind wander while your hypnotist gives you positive ideas for change.

Some people find nature sounds or music assists them, others prefer quiet. Just let the hypnotist know what you prefer.
