How does hypnosis work?

Hypnosis works by guiding you into a deeply relaxed state of mind and body using suggestion techniques. Once in this relaxed state, your conscious mind quietens down and allows your brain waves to shift into the theta frequency, a very deep and slow brainwave which facilitates changing behaviour and healing.

In this natural trance state, you have access to the subconscious, where deeply ingrained thoughts, habits, and beliefs are stored. With practice, hypnosis rewires negative or destructive thought patterns, promoting positive change and improved mental well-being.

Hypnosis is safe, you always remain in control. Many people describe hypnosis as guided daydreaming. You mind will only pick on suggestions that you agree with, and you feel are helpful. You cannot be influenced to do anything against your will. 

With practice and repetition, you’re training your mind. The more you listen, the deeper it works.
