Hypnosis induction

One should be aware that most of the processes or body does are not done consciously. For example, you can not regulate your blood pressure, but unconscious mind does that for you. Or to take a more common example- it would be extremely difficult if you should try to drive a car using your conscious mind. When you are driving, you do not think about the pressure of your foot on the accelerator or break pedals. You do not think where on which pedals your left or right foot should be at specific time (you do not think, ah I will have to stop soon, so I should put my left leg on the breaking pedal, apply moderate pressure and so on). Your unconscious mind does that for you. Though this is a simple example, your unconscious mind also regulates other functions in your body. A lot of fears are quite irrational, and by harnessing the power of your unconscious mind you can get over them. And in order to use your unconscious mind, you need to induce hypnosis.

There are numerous hypnosis induction techniques, one of the first developed being an eye-fixation method, known as the James Braid Eye-Fixation Hypnotic Induction Method. The method is now days not used as much, and I'll be covering mostly methods developed by NLP (neuro linguistic programming) practitioners. NLP uses various hypnosis induction methods to make your life better.

Everyone can achieve at least some level of hypnosis. Think about when you are driving on a freeway and than getting off it. You might perceive it only as a short travel, yet when you look at your watch, you see that you had been driving for a very long time. The occurrence of a driving trance is somewhat easily achieved, but there are problems in achieving hypnosis so easily. Many people think they can't draw simply because they they were in some form of a trance when their teachers told them that they are no good in drawing. People become much more susceptible under hypnosis and that can be dangerous.

Still, if done in a professional way, inducing hypnosis can be extremely beneficial for a person. The good thing about it is, that you can do it your self and make lasting changes in the way you work, manage relationships and incite good feeling in our self at any given time. Even if one can achieve simple relaxation, it is a good start to make lasting changes in your life.
