Local Hypnotists

By Caterina Christakos

 We have all seen hypnotists on television and stage hypnosis has become very popular but there are far more uses for hypnosis than making volunteers cluck like chickens. Hypnosis Certification is specialized training in helping hypnotists put clients into a deep enough trance to make powerful hypnotic changes. Hundreds of people all over the world have used hypnosis to lose weight, stop smoking, break bad habits and increase their motivation.

Sports figures have gone to hypnotists to increase their concentration and performance. Top celebrities have gone to certified hypnotists to increase their confidence and get better control over their lives. Oprah published an article in her O magazine on the benefits of hypnosis in helping people lose weight and keep it off. Samuel Jackson and Matt Damon stopped smoking with hypnosis.

Hypnosis training can help you help others in much the same way. When you get certified in hypnosis you learn the techniques to help put your clients into a deep trance quickly and easily, while giving them pre-determined suggestions. You work with your clients to find out exactly what changes that they want made, often helping them to clarify their true desire. You then create hypnotic suggestions to help them achieve these goals.

As a hypnosis practitioner you are responsible for building rapport with your clients. You are not forcing them to be hypnotized. Instead you are working with them to build trust so that they can feel safe enough with you to relax and make these changes. It is important when creating these suggestions that you phrase them in the now, so learning how to monitor your language is a big part of your hypnosis certification training. Another part is reading between the lines. Some one may come in saying that they want to quit smoking but have some sub conscious benefits to being a smoker. For example, many people smoke as a social tool. They feel more confident with a cigarette in their hands. So you would need to address both issues. You would need to create suggestions to help them quit and also feel confident in social situations.

Weight loss hypnosis is similar. There is often a subconscious reason why people gain and lose weight in cycles. They may get rid of the weight temporarily but the emotional reason behind their binges has not been dealt with, which causes subsequent weight gain. Part of your job as a hypnotist is to address this. We are not talking about doing therapy here. Your job as a hypnotist is not to find out everything that has happened to them since they were five. But if you can determine the trigger that causes them to eat, you can address it and even find an alternate, healthier behavior to replace the eating.

Hypnosis certification training is an excellent way to learn these different techniques and identify these hidden indicators so that you can help your clients achieve even more powerful and longer lasting changes in their lives.

Hypnosis and Kicking the habit of Cigarettes
By Hypnosis Melbourne

 The wonderful thing about hypnosis is that we can quickly and effectively reprogram that part of us for lasting benefit. Hypnosis is an easy and effective tool. Even a single session can change your life!

Often Hypnotherapy treatments are so effectively, you will have to pinch yourself to make sure you are not dreaming.

Since you have loved smoking so much for so long, and it is a deeply ingrained habit, you will very likely continue to smoke until you can get your subconscious mind onboard in your effort to quit.

Considering the pressure smokers are coming under from all sides these days I am sure that hypnotherapists are finding many people using their services to end their habit. With this book they can get up to

speed with the latest effective techniques to maximise their clients efforts. Hypnosis is an easy, safe way to transform your habitual patterns of thinking so that you can consistently live in your full

potential!

Under the influence of a trained hypnotherapist, you’re supposed to be able to concentrate better, be more open to suggestion and be far less critical about following orders. A typical session lasts anywhere

from half an hour to an hour. To make people aware of Oxford stop smoking hypnosis and hypnotherapy by an experienced hypnotherapist . To eliminate any phobia or phobias using the power of self hypnosis and

hypnotherapy. Fortunately, the answer is no, a hypnotherapist can not make you do anything you don’t want to do. In my experience, many people have a natural concern about hypnosis because they’ve seen stage

hypnotists getting volunteers to do silly things for the sake of entertainment.

Once these suggestions are placed in your subconscious it becomes EASY to stop smoking and a new habit of being a non-smoker is formed. This also means that the urge to smoke will fade away. Many smokers are

focused on the fear of developing lung cancer. While it is true that the risk of death from lung cancer is 12 times greater that if you do not smoke, it turns out that your increased risk of dying from

smoking is largely attributed to heart disease, because if you smoke, your risk of dying from heart disease is 6 times greater than the relatively high risk among non smokers. If youve tried to stop smoking

before and failed, take comfort in the fact that most smokers fail several times before quitting successfully.

The rest is psychological, driven by habitual behaviour, ticking away in the background. This is why so many people struggle when they first decide to stop smoking. Using Hypnosis To Cure Bad Habits such as

smoking, gambling and alcohol is very easy to achieve once the person has been induced into a deep state of hypnosis and the correct techniques are applied.

Easy Ways To Break A Chewing Tobacco Addiction With NLP
By Alan Densky

 The addiction to smokeless tobacco is easily as dangerous and debilitating as the addiction to smoking cigarettes. In fact, many experts proclaim that it is even more insidious. Chewing has been glamorized by sports professionals. Many people who dip smokeless started as early as 9 years of age! And by the time that many of these youngsters turn eighteen, they are overcome by throat and mouth cancer, and many are dying.

While a person with lung cancer can look normal, the face of a victim of mouth cancer can be an awful sight. Imagine how a face looks after having a jawbone cut out, or the lips or tongue surgically removed. Usually the surgical butchering of the victim’s face is all for nothing, because many die within a year or so anyway.

The experts tell us that the physical addiction to Nicotine is broken after abstaining for seven days. But the psychological part of the addiction is far stronger and may take a much longer time and a lot more effort to overcome, which makes it very difficult to give up smokeless tobacco.

There are three individual factors to the addiction to chewing tobacco. Two of the parts are mental, and one part is physical.

Part A: YOU CHEW FOR RELAXATION AND PLEASURE.

When you were a child and you started crying, your mother would put a bottle into your mouth to calm you down. You would get distracted, become more peaceful, and often go to sleep. That sequence of events was repeated many, many times so that your unconscious mind was programmed: When something goes into your mouth, you get relaxation and pleasure from it.

Now that you are mature, if you feel tense or nervous, you crave something in your mouth for relaxation and pleasure - dip!

Part B: CHEWING IS A CONDITIONED RESPONSE.

Remember Pavlov? Every time that he fed his dogs he rang a bell. After several repetitions, he could just ring the bell, and that would make the dogs salivate.

When you associate chewing tobacco with any other behavior, the other behavior will trigger cravings for tobacco and a urge to chew. This is called a conditioned response.

For example: If you chew while you watch a movie, you will automatically get an urge to chew each time you go to the movies.

Here is exactly how this conditioned response gets programmed into your unconscious: If a person chews smokeless and simultaneously drives a car, the mind takes a snapshot of the tobacco in the hand, and ties it to the image of the steering wheel, dashboard, or view out the windshield, etc.. Thereafter, every time the person drives the car, his unconscious mind fills in the missing part of the picture. It flashes an image of the chew in the hand coming towards the mouth, and the dipper gets a craving for smokeless tobacco.

You may not be consciously aware of the mental picture of the smokeless tobacco, because it may only be at the unconscious level of mind. Just as you are not consciously aware of what you are seeing through your peripheral vision until something or someone draws your attention to it. But the image is there, creating a craving for a dip.

Part C: THERE IS A PHYSICAL ADDICTION TO NICOTINE, BUT . . .

I have had the experience of working with several thousand people for tobacco cessation and I give you my personal guarantee that the physical addiction to smokeless tobacco is the weakest part of the habit. In fact, I believe that it is only ten percent of the addiction. Ninety percent of the dipping habit are the mental and emotional parts! (Parts A and B).

HERE IS WHAT THIS MEANS TO A PERSON WHO CHEWS SMOKELESS TOBACCO AND WHO WANTS TO QUIT.

What this means is that if you can eliminate the feeling of tension that causes you to chew smokeless tobacco for relaxation and pleasure (Part A) . . . and if you can extinguish the conditioned response of feeling a craving for dip when watching TV, driving, or finishing a meal, etc. (Part B) . . . then you can stop dipping tobacco without requiring willpower, and without suffering from withdrawal symptoms or weight-gain.

Hypnosis will make it easy to give up tobacco because it takes care of Parts A & B! Here is how:

Part A is where dippers dip smokeless for relaxation and pleasure. It’s our thoughts that create tension. More to the point, people always run mental movies in their mind’s eye. If the movie is negative, it creates a feeling of tension.

We can use different NLP techniques to program the unconscious mind to easily take those anxiety producing mental pictures and movies, and automatically exchange them for relaxation producing mental pictures and movies. This produces relaxation and pleasure, and obliterates the anxiety that creates the oral urges for chewing.

Because of the elimination of tension, the person who is quitting doesn’t feel the compulsion or need to substitute food in place of the chew. So quitting without weight gain is possible.

Stopping the addiction to smokeless is very similar to overcoming the addiction to food, cigarettes, and nail biting. I have many additional original articles on these topics in my free NLP and hypnosis article repository.

Part B is where people dip smokeless tobacco because chewing tobacco becomes a conditioned response to many different activities and locations. Remember in the earlier example how smoking became unconsciously associated with other activities and environments so that each time a person who chews gets into that activity or environment, the mind flashes an image of smokeless tobacco in your hand, and the image of the smokeless tobacco in your hand triggers cravings for smokeless?

There are powerful and effective NLP and hypnosis technologies that can quickly extinguish those conditioned responses so that a person’s unconscious will lose the cravings for chew, and the compulsion to chew smokeless tobacco. As a matter of fact, you can even get a compulsion to reject chewing.

In summation, when we use certain NLP techniques, it can be very easy to stop chewing without weight gain or having to suffer from withdrawal. And many of these hypnotic techniques do not even depend on post-hypnotic suggestions. They depend on programming the unconscious mind to use the same thought processes that the unconscious mind is using to create the addiction to smokeless tobacco, to eliminate the mental addiction.

Alan B. Densky, CH offers NLP CDs to quit smokeless tobacco. He helps clients with hypnosis for weight loss, smoke cessation hypnosis, and stress related symptoms. He maintains a library of hypnosis & NLP articles, and offers FREE NLP and hypnosis newsletters & MP3s. http://www.neuro-vision.us/
