Mind Basics

The human mind can be divided into three parts: Unconscious, subconscious and conscious. Every part has separate and different task. The unconscious mind runs your involuntary body systems like circulatory system. The subconscious mind manages your memory bank as well as your emotions, and the conscious mind is used in your normal daily life. It helps you make decisions in what to wear, eat, and drink and selects the actions that will be carried out. The conscious mind is also responsible in critical factor abilities such as comparing, reasoning and explaining. These abilities are bypassed during hypnosis.

Researchers have studied patients in a hypnotic state and have discovered that there are no significant physical changes in the bodies of their subjects. The patients bodies only seem to be relaxed and slowed down all throughout the hypnotic process. Using an electroencephalograph (EEG) to measure their brain waves, doctors found a change in the rhythms of electrical voltage. Their findings suggest that the brain waves of the patients under the trance state are similar to those in a deep sleep state, which are of course different from the normal waking state. It has been concluded from these studies that the subconscious mind takes over the normal conscious one during hypnotherapy sessions.

The activities in the cerebral cortex during hypnosis were also studied. It was noted that the activities in the left hemisphere of the cortex were less compared to the activities that happened in the right side. It has been well documented that according to neurologists the left hemisphere controls one’s logic, deduction and reasoning while the right hemisphere takes charge of a person’s imagination and creativity. For the duration of the hypnotic state researchers accept the fact that the right brain dominates the left brain because the subconscious mind is being accessed.

It may be advantageous for many people to learn hypnosis, it can be a good idea because it has many benefits including helping with weight loss, bringing change within you and even improving your golf and other sports activities! What hypnosis does is draw from what you already have in you, it cannot be used to force someone to do something they would not otherwise do, as is commonly believed, but it does have many benefits and it does indeed work, even though it can work better on some people than others.

With hypnosis, you release the full potential of your mind, and you use your inner capabilities to attract more positive energy. The power of hypnosis lies within the mind’s ability to take on information at a subconscious level, and to put that information to use when you need it.

Did you know that one’s self-esteem can be improved by using hypnotherapy? As a matter of fact, issues about self-esteem are one of the main reasons why people consult a hypnotherapist.

Self-esteem is defined as the way you value yourself. If you love and accept your own self, then you have a healthy self-esteem. This means that you can mingle with other people easily, be responsible for your own life, take care of your body, not be discouraged by other people’s behavior and believe that you do not need to compete with other people to get what you want.

Contrary to popular belief, hypnosis does not make a person do something they would not already do. What I mean by that is, you cannot take a law-abiding citizen and cause them to rob a bank. Likewise, you cannot take a person who has never lifted a golf club and turn him or her into a pro instantly. However, with that being said, in answer to the question of whether or not hypnosis can help improve your golf, the answer is yes it can.

What actually occurs when a person is hypnotized is they are put in a trance-like state, yet they are fully awake. Take putting for instance, the Achilles heel of many the golfer. The hypnosis sessions will cause you to concentrate more fully on the perfect putts you have made, and will make you think less of the bad ones. The end result is that you build your confidence and you tend to believe that more of your putts will be good and that you will make less bad shots. So in other words, it helps you to concentrate on your good game instead of worrying over your bad game.

I have the pleasure of publishing another article by Michael Lee today!

A controlling relationship can be very complicated. In most situations, the one controlled doesn’t even know or want to admit that they’re being suffocated. Many factors come into play here, but we’re going to focus on the warning signs of a controlling relationship.

I have often wondered how mind control works, and if is it at all possible? So the purpose of this article is to explain mind control, while at the same time dispelling any of the myths that surround hypnosis.

When we speak of mind control in a hypnotic sense, what we are really talking about is using the power of suggestion to create a positive (or maybe even a negative?) outcome.

Many of us have a hard time remembering numbers, words are usually easier because you can associate them with an object. For instance, if I asked you to remember the word “book”, a picture of a book appears in your mind, but if I said remember 3984, then most of us would not be able to remember it after a few minutes of not seeing it.

So how can we try and conquer this problem?
One of the best ways is to use your eyes and ears to help you.
As I mentioned earlier, if I said remember 3984, it can easily be forgotten, but if I wrote three-nine-eight-four, then it may make it easier?

Many people ask “how can I lose weight using hypnosis” and the answer is more simple than you might imagine. Now you may be thinking “there’s no way you can hypnotize me, and I just lose weight” and you would be 100% right, because that is not the way it works. Common misconceptions in regard to hypnosis would have a person believing that they could be hypnotized, and they would then simply follow the commands given, but it just is not that simple. It is a bit more complicated and yet so simple at the same time, if you know what I mean!

Hypnosis is not what you see on television. The television hypnotist would lead you to believe that a person who is put into a hypnotic state is asleep, when in fact they are put into a highly aware trance-like state of mind, and that is how it works with weight loss, among other things.

There are many articles, videos, mp3s and courses available on this site to help you understand and learn hypnosis. The techniques available are very powerful, and as they say “with much power comes much responsibility” and that of course is very true. So are there any real dangers using hypnotic techniques on other people or yourself?

Hypnosis can be learned by anyone to a certain degree, and therefore using the power of suggestion and delving into the subconscious mind can have dramatic effects on the subject under hypnosis, even if only for a short time.

Millions of people watched Derren Brown “predict” the UK lottery results on UK TV last night.

When I say predict, I mean he wrote the numbers on some lottery balls, but no one saw the numbers until after the draw, unfortunately most of us in the US could only watch a news clip of this, but I suspect it will be coming to many YouTube channels pretty soon.

You may not have to wait long to find out how he did it though, apparently he is going to reveal that tonight, and meanwhile the Internet is filled with people guessing, and another few million people became Derren Brown fans!

The lifestyle of the average citizen has dramatically changed as opposed to the same person say, 50 years ago. Today we are constantly on the run, we eat processed foods, many of us are over-weight because of these processed foods, and some of us have addictive personalities. That’s not to say having an addictive personality is our fault, on the contrary; we do and that’s just the way it is, period. Today we are going to look at 7 ways hypnosis can change our lives.

1. Goals – Many of us will set goals, and then lose them. Take the New Year’s resolution as an example, every single year we set these goals, and by the end of January they have been forgotten. If we used hypnosis sessions then we could subliminally embed these goals in our subconscious mind, and we would therefore have a better chance at achieving them. Making changes in our lives is difficult, we are creatures of habit, but by using hypnotic suggestion we have a better chance of meeting our goals without even really thinking about it, at least on a conscious level.
