The word hypnosis originates from the name of the Greek God Hypnos who was the Greek God of sleep. However, hypnosis is not quite the same as sleep, even though it may look similar. There are many definitions of the state of mind known as hypnosis, and almost every dictionary has a different definition. In general it could be called as alerted state of mind.

Did you know that the conscious mind uses mearly 10% of the brain? And yet it controls the nervous system. Also it accepts and rejects based on its power of reasoning. The conscious mind has done this through education, interaction with others, experience of the self and of others. And it has done it through various global information and communication networks.

The brain itself operates on two very distinctive levels, the conscious and the subconscious. The subconscious memories and records all your life experiences down to the very last detail?

Another aspect of the subconscious of value to us is that it has no power of reasoning and because of this it any suggestion given to it is accepted as true. You may think this is bad but it's not, its good, it's very good.

 Your subconscious mind is the location of your life�s programme. And your programme, the same as for everyone else, runs on automatic.  But because of the subconscious minds lack of reasoning power it turns out you have an ace in the hole.

The conscious mind is the deciding factor. Conscious mind makes decisions and judgments from an extremely limited point of view. In other words, the conscious mind governs, limits, constructs barriers, obstacles, hurdles and much more.

If, we can find a way of bypassing the conscious mind, along with its limiting tendencies, we create the potential to deliberately plant suggestions into the subconscious mind.

The Self-hypnosis method artfully bypasses any negative programming that may be present within your conscious mind.

But be aware that although the conscious mind occupies only 10% of the brain it is all-powerful. Whatever it believes, accepts or repeatedly thinks about, sinks down into the subconscious mind, which accepts everything as true, even when it is not true. The one thing to do is to pay close attention to what's going on in your conscious mind.

Self-Hypnosis is an effective method of bypassing the conscious mind. In other words, any negative influencing by the conscious mind is bypassed allowing you to implant whatever it is that you want, directly into your subconscious mind.  

You can free yourself from bad habits, destructive patterns of behavior, difficulties with your health, relationship tensions. Also, if you have a nervous disposition and upcoming events get you crazy you can eliminate the stress factor.

Whatever it is you want to change about yourself you can do it through self-hypnotic autosuggestion. Whenever you plant suggestions into your sub-conscious they become part of your programme. New suggestions will write over the existing programme. There is no need for you to fight with yourself. Your new programme will soon begin to run on automatic just the same as your existing one does now.

The technique is to first induce a self-hypnotic state, which is real easy once you know how. You follow this by implanting suggestions into the now accessible subconscious mind, without any interference from the conscious mind.

To a certain extent we are all subject to a programmed way of thinking, responding behaving, acting and reacting. Fears, phobias, habits, attitudes and beliefs are all part of our programme, some of it is good, some bad and some totally useless.  The one thing to be done is to sift through your own programme and weed out the things that are not serving you. Know that you overcome them.  You are born to be happy and to feel good about yourself.
