Hypnosis is a natural state of mind that we all experience daily, like when we're about to fall asleep. It induces deep relaxation, similar to meditation, while keeping awareness of the surroundings. In this state, our senses and rational thought are available, but we detach from our usual, thought-dominated mindset, making the subconscious more accessible. Positive suggestions given in this state can help retrain habits or address negative beliefs from past experiences. For hypnotherapy to be effective, the individual must desire and commit to the suggested changes.
Regression therapy, another form of hypnotherapy, involves deep relaxation, allowing whatever comes up to be the focus. The therapist acts as a supportive observer, providing empathy and empowering suggestions. This creates a safe space for healing, especially when revisiting past trauma from a position of empowerment rather than helplessness.
