Free Hypnosis Sessions - Why You Should Be Wary
Hypnotism have entered
the commercial market and profits are within the arena of the practice, we have
to question the motives and principles for those who promote hypnosis,
especially those who offer free hypnosis sessions.
Hypnosis is when the mind is settled into
an almost trance like state - induced by suggestive sentences, sometimes with
the use of music, speech and even visual stimulation. Traditionally a hypnotist
is present to induce the state of sleep in the person and the use of props like
watches and pendulums are not uncommon at all. Self or auto hypnosis is also
becoming fairly common these days but highly opposed because of the dangers of
regression and the possible inability to come out of the spell on ones own.
Hypnosis belongs to the school of thought that exists in the early 1940’s - as a tool to induce the preconscious mind,
so that suggestive sentences and verbal persuasions can be introduced directly
to the preconscious mind and hopefully good results will occur - like kicking a
bad habit or changing a negative aspect of behaviour.
The literature behind hypnotism is quite
extensive and it has many physical and psychotherapeutic applications - from
reduction in pain all the way to an increased motivation to kick a bad habit or
to lose weight. While extensive, there
is much doubt in general when hypnosis is used as an alternative form of
medication or as a complement to drugs during the healing process.
Especially now when hypnotism has entered
the commercial market and profits are within the arena of the practice, we have
to question the motives and principles for those who promote hypnosis,
especially those who offer free hypnosis sessions. You should be wary of these
people and especially the claims they make; do as much research as possible
before deciding whom to go to. My rationale is very simple, hypnosis should
never be an option for those looking to use mind focusing and mind changing
techniques to help in the path to personal development. There are many good
reasons for this.
One, when you are under the spell, you are
left at the mercy of the hypnotist, someone you barely know and most likely
have just met. When you are under the spell, you will not be aware of the sort
of messages that have been implanted in you - especially those that have been
placed for personal gain. Let me give you a simple example. A hypnotist can
bombard you with suggestions to purchase a product from him at an exorbitant
price and when you are brought out of the spell, you might just buy it, or pass
him money, or give your ATM pin number or combination for your safe. What they
can do is limitless, especially when they have access to your subconscious -
the memory banks of the mind where everything that you have ever remembered
from the day that you were born is stored in side. Would you want someone to
have that kind of access to your life? I think not.
There are many other ways you can change
your mind and change your life; brainwave entrainment is one such method that
you can utilise - it is widely available on the internet and its technology is
backed by scientific and medical communities all over the world , making it a
much safer alternative to hypnosis.
