How Does It Work?
Logic works with the conscious mind, but often not with the subconscious.
Hypnosis helps the subconscious. While a person is under hypnosis, the hypnotherapist is able to communicate directly with the subconscious part of their mind. Since the subconscious does not analyze or criticize anything that is said to it, it will accept almost anything that is said as literal and will do this automatically without the person even knowing.
A good example of the conscious and subconscious mind is:
When you learn to do something, for example driving a car, you use your conscious mind. You might think “I’m never going to remember all this”, but once you’ve passed your driving test, suddenly things seem to get easier. You seem to be going on “autopilot”. This is because all the information has been passed on to your subconscious, so you no longer have to think about what you are doing.
Remember how difficult it was when you learned to drive and compare this to how easy it is now.
When you believe in something that has been proven to be more effective for you – then it works for you. This is the case when you receive hypnotherapy. Being open to it is a sure way to make it work.
