Relaxation defined - state of being free from tension and anxiety.
Hypnotherapy - using hypnosis for therapeutic purposes.
Relaxation is a necessary component of hypnotherapy. Hypnotherapists use relaxation techniques to help their
clients achieve the state of hypnosis.
Hypnosis is a deeply relaxed, highly suggestible, focused state of mind.
Relaxation quiets the mind and the body and opens the door
to the trance state of hypnosis. Hypnosis makes it possible to by-pass the
critical mind and access the subconscious mind. When the client is in this
trance state the hypnotherapist makes positive suggestions that can lead to
powerful changes (that the client wants) on a subconscious level.
Breathing is the key to relaxation.Relaxation is the key to hypnosis.Hypnosis is the key to the mind.The mind is the key to change.Suggestion is the key to specific change.
Some of the relaxation techniques used by hypnotherapists are:
Progressive muscle relaxation - the hypnotherapist guides the client to systematically tighten
and relax various muscles.
Guided imagery - the client is guided through storytelling and mental
pictures to achieve the desired state.
Deep breathing exercises - the clients focus on their breath and their breathing.
Relaxation is at the core of these techniques. Most hypnotherapists, including me, use a combination of
these techniques to help their clients enter the state of hypnosis.
The difference between relaxation and hypnosis
Mark Tyrell, of the Uncommon Knowledge, had this to say about hypnosis and relaxation - "In truth, hypnosis is not inevitably a relaxation state, although it can be. Hypnosis is really a state of highly focused attention."
I believe that relaxation opens the door to hypnosis. However, relaxation in and of itself will not bring about psychological and physical changes, nor help you bypass the critical mind to make changes subconsciously. Hypnosis does! Your hypnotherapist will make suggestions to change
- Bad habits (stop smoking)
- Unwanted behaviors. (such as anger)
- Fears and phobias.
- Self-esteem and lack of confidence issues.
In general, hypnotherapy can help with vocational and a
vocational issues. Some issues may require psychological and/or medical referrals.
Summary
Relaxation calms your mind and body. Hypnosis is a very relaxed, highly suggestible, focused state of mind. Hypnotherapy helps you to use your mind for positive change.
