Is hypnosis a science?
Scientists study the brain constantly to understand actions and reactions.
Hypnosis is a natural psychological process in which the mind's critical thinking faculties are bypassed, and perceptions are established. All this means is… Have you ever yawned when you saw someone else yawn? In fact, you may be yawning right now as you read this. This is just one of the simplest examples of Hypnosis. It’s simply responding to a suggestion.
There are several kinds of hypnosis; the most noticeable is advertising on television. You see the commercials and buy the product, or you get the sniffles after watching a commercial for a product that claims to cure a cold.
Master Hypnosis and Wellness Center can help you tap into the subconscious and make a positive change that becomes a natural behavior. Everyone has been hypnotized at some point. When the avid computer game player plays his game while eating popcorn, or when we drive to a destination and, upon arrival, wonder how we got there. These are just a couple of instances where we could have experienced hypnosis.
Most of us think of the stage scenario in which a man is made to act like a chicken under hypnosis. I want to dispel the myth that the man doesn't know he is acting like a chicken, or that he won’t remember acting like one once he’s out of the trance. He does, in fact, know exactly what he is doing and chooses to act as he does willingly.
Hypnosis occurs when your brain is doing one thing while your body is doing another. Your mind is made up, both consciously and subconsciously. The conscious part is what we are aware of and is the critical factor, filtering information as it is received. Hypnosis occurs when we bypass the critical factor and directly access the subconscious mind. Whatever is received in the subconscious is acted on physiologically, psychologically, or behaviorally.
Our brain is a neural network, similar to a computer's hardware, and it depends on the information it receives from the subconscious. Our subconscious supplies the software that guides the brain's actions. In hypnosis, we can modify this software to achieve a desired positive change.
