Self Hypnosis: Something To Get Excited About!

In this article today I want to cover a topic that I am very passionate about - Self Hypnosis. I want to cover two important points on Self Hypnosis so that you can understand the concept in more detail. Self-Hypnosis sparks many thoughts in many people and due to the fact that some of these thoughts are going to be misconception, some of the information here may surprise you. I really do hope that you enjoy and learn from what I have to say and maybe even start learning Self Hypnosis to achieve you goals and dreams in the future.

Can you really hypnotise yourself?

I was asked this question just the other week while doing an interview with a local BBC radio station. Funnily enough, this is the question that has been asked by a lot of people that have met me in the last few weeks. Well that answer is YES! In fact that state of hypnosis in natural and we actually use it everyday with out knowing. By knowing this we can ultimately harness that power of Hypnosis and use it to achieve things. See Hypnosis a bit about a daydream. Think of the last daydream that you had that really motivated you to do something. Maybe you were thinking about how great it would be to buy a certain product… And then you found yourself completely compelled and motivated to make your purchase – well that’s Hypnosis in action! Just imagine if you could learn to harness that to get a pay-rise or lose some weight.

Does using Self Hypnosis tape constitute Self Hypnosis?

Well… The quick answer is, NO, however let me explain why. There are two main types of Hypnosis – The first being ‘Operator Guided Hypnosis’ or OGH and the other being Self-Hypnosis. OGH is where there is an outside influence, such as with a tape, CD or Hypnotherapist. With this method you can’t take full control of what you want to achieve as you will want to follow the instructions given to you. Without the tape or any other aids (Self Hypnosis) you are able to guide yourself through your goals and desires. It also means that you don’t build a possible dependence on the tapes or CD’s. This doesn’t mean that tapes and CD’s are negative though, in fact quite that opposite! OGH is often needed for those that may find it hard to practice Self Hypnosis at first.

So there you have it. Did you learn anything? Do you have something that Self Hypnosis could help you with? Do you want to learn more? I sure hope so, because Self Hypnosis is an amazing tool that you can use to achieve goals that may seem truly impossible!
