How Does Hypnosis Works?
While the main people ask about hypnosis is “does it work?” what people are often not know of is the fact that we all experience forms of hypnosis throughout each day. It seems strange, but it is true. No doubt, the term hypnosis is very mysterious to many, this is mostly due to the stage hypnotist shows in which a hypnotist is seemingly able to take full control over the volunteer’s mental and bodily functions, but you should keep in mind that these shows are just for entertainment. Meanwhile, the truth of the matter is that this is a very natural and normal experience for all of us.
Ultimately, when in a state of Hypnosis San Diego, one has simply narrowed his or her focus down to a smallest level, and we all have experienced this when we submerge ourselves in a book, movie, television program and so forth. Our consciousness perpetually focuses on that sole activity, and has provided our attention from the multitude of other things going on around us. The other aspect with the help of which we can experience this is driving down a familiar highway for miles, only to arrive at the destination with very little memory of the drive we have just experienced. These are usual types of hypnosis, and specifically, self hypnosis.
As we start understanding the hypnosis thoroughly, we will conclude that it is a very natural state of mind, one that we flow in and out of regularly. And soon, the question of whether hypnosis works or not, becomes irrelevant, while the more pertinent question is raised: how does it work?-
The Brainwave States:
The human mind operates with four main brainwave states. These are divided on the bases of speed, or frequency, like the clock speed of any computer; from fastest and highest frequency, to slowest and lowest frequency. These four states are: Beta, Alpha, Theta, and Delta. Beta state is normal, fully awake and aware, state of human mind. With this state we are able to perform most of our daily operations and conscious activity.
The Alpha state helps us becoming slightly relaxed, and perhaps entered a slight hypnosis. This state can easily be achieved with meditation, or simply becoming immersed in a single project or activity, so that we release our attention from anything else. In Theta our brain wave frequency has slowed and relaxed greatly. We often went in a state of daydream in this, and it is the last state of consciousness we experience before falling asleep. The last state is the Delta, in which we are fully unconscious, often asleep, and in dream states. It is in this state when our subconscious mind opens the most, expanding beyond physical parameters, able to access realms of information not available to us in our other states of mind. The practitioner of Hypnosis San Diego use to understand the different brain wave states and the ranges of frequency that our mind operates within.
With this, hypnotherapist use to perfume his skill in very powerful ways to make significant, lifelong changes in our behavior and outlook. One needs to be very professional as well as skilled to use this art for the sake of others.
