The human mind may be subdivided into three parts: the
Unconscious, Subconscious and Conscious. These compare to a
computer:

•        Unconscious - operating system
•        Subconscious - hard drive
•        Conscious - RAM

Each part has separate and distinct tasks. The Unconscious mind
operates your automatic body systems such as the circulatory
system, much as a computer's operating system includes its basic
functions. The Subconscious mind operates like a hard drive by
storing files of all kinds, from a full memory bank of your past to
your emotional spectrum, to its most vital task: protecting you at all
costs. The Conscious mind is our everyday mind, making immediate
day to day decisions like what to wear, eat, and drink. It is the
gatekeeper, choosing what information is to be acted upon moment
by moment. It's the mind you're reading this book with right now,
and its tasks include comparing, reasoning, and explaining. These
abilities are called the Critical Factor and are bypassed in hypnosis.

Importance of the Subconscious Mind

To update a file on your computer, you must open the original file
and make the changes. In the human mind, original files are stored
in the Subconscious. To gain access, we must reach the
Subconscious directly, bypassing the Conscious mind. In other
words, one way to gain positive changes in the present is to
neutralize the negativity in the past. We do not change the
memories, we upgrade how you feel about them. This upgrading
can only be accomplished in the Subconscious, for that is where
memories are stored, and it can only be reached through bypass of
the Conscious mind, and that can only be done through hypnosis.
Why? It's what works. Hypnosis specifically sets the Conscious mind
aside temporarily.

Your Mind Must Protect You; Good News, Bad News

All levels of your mind work to protect you as best they can at all
times. And this especially applies to the Subconscious. It must
protect you at all costs, and to do so, it may even lie to you, or more
to the point, to your Conscious mind. It may lie about you, about
others, it may even lie to your hypnotist while you are in trance. It
may hide memories from you. And much, much more. This is
because once it accepts negative behaviors in the name of your
safety, it hangs on to those behaviors. Some examples are:

•        smoking anything
•        being obese
•        declining success
•        biting your fingernails
•        spending compulsively

You may well ask, how can compulsive spending possibly protect
me? It distracts you. Misdirection is one highly effective way your
Subconscious protects you by keeping a lid on overwhelming
emotions. Ergo the addict. You may well ask, how can declining to
be successful possibly protect me? It limits you. Limiting exposure to
risk is another way to protect you. It is when such protective efforts
do not meet your current needs that you desire change. Hypnosis
sets aside the Conscious mind, makes changes via the
Subconscious mind, and change is achieved.

How Hypnosis Upgrades Your Files

Hypnosis is able to change your perception of your memories, and
thus of yourself. We do not change the events themselves, we
upgrade how you feel about them, and thus your daily life is
upgraded. By accessing the original files stored in the
Subconscious, you are able to see all of the reasons why your mind
specifies your behaviors in the name of protecting you, and
together we upgrade those behaviors since, typically, the need of
that protection is gone. You are no longer in the middle of the event
that had such impact on you.

Your Conscious mind does not have complete access to your
memory files; that is not its job. This is why merely talking about
change is such an ineffective means of getting any. Talking
happens in the Conscious mind. Change happens in the
Subconscious. And here's the rub: the Subconscious outvotes the
Conscious mind. It is far, far larger, stronger, and more powerful.
This is why willpower fails so miserably for the dieter. Unless the
Subconscious agrees to a healthy diet and a normalized body
weight, your finest of intentions are shortlived, having been
overridden by the Subconscious mind.

Emotions are a function of, and are stored in, the Subconscious.
When you have had an emotional reaction to danger, for example,
real or imagined, those emotions are felt and stored in your
Subconscious. Hypnosis accesses those stored emotions,
upgrades your perception of them, and results in changed
behavior. You must give yourself permission to make changes. You
must want to change. You must want to enter into hypnosis. And
this means not being afraid of hypnosis. So, let's define what
hypnosis is in several ways, as there is no single perfect way to
phrase it.

What Hypnosis Is

Hypnosis is the bypass of the critical factor of the conscious mind
combined with the establishment of selective thinking, says the US
Government. Hypnosis is a blend of physical relaxation and extreme
mental alertness. Yes, I said extreme. Hypnosis is a state of focused
concentration. This is why a few minutes of emotional expression in
trance is worth hours in an alert state. Humans are so easily
distracted, and the Conscious mind is forever making excuses for
everything. In hypnosis, the conscious mind is set aside, and
excuses are seen for what they are.

Hypnosis is guided imagery combined with specific suggestions to
effect desired change. Ah, there's that phrase: guided imagery.
Many hypnotists dislike the connotation of the H word, hypnosis, so
they call themselves practitioners of guided imagery. Be not fooled,
they are hypnotists. Guided meditation? Hypnosis. Relaxation
techniques? Hypnosis. Hypnosis is the state you enter into every
time you watch a favorite tv show, see a film you like, or sit down at
the computer intending to only be there for 10 minutes... and
suddenly it's two hours later. Hypnosis also happens when humans
fall in love, literally entranced.

What Hypnosis Is Not

•        Hypnosis is not mind control. Svengali is fiction! As is that
Bugs Bunny cartoon where he walked like a zombie, claiming to be
hypnotized. Fiction!

•        Hypnosis is not a royal proclamation. We don't just say to the
tranced client, You are a nonsmoker, and emerge her. It can take
anywhere from one session to a dozen to get the changes the client
wants.

•        Hypnosis is not sleep. We use relaxation, not sleep, to enter
hypnosis. You do not wake up from hypnosis, you emerge. And you
already know exactly what emerging from hypnosis feels like!
Remember the last time you went to the movies, loved the film, and
at the end when the credits rolled, you suddenly came to? You just
emerged from hypnosis. That's exactly what it feels like, because
that's exactly what happened.

•        Hypnosis is not being unconscious. You can hear everything
that goes on around you during trance; you're just not interested in
it. You already know what this aspect of hypnosis feels like, too.
Ever been in the middle of your favorite tv show when someone
calls your name? Oh, you hear them calling, alright, you're just not
interested. Then it takes a few seconds of emerging from the
hypnotic effects of television to bring back your Conscious mind to
full alert.

•        Hypnosis is not relaxation. That's just an optimal starting point.

•        Hypnosis is not being drugged. Although a trance state is
what drug and alcohol addicts strive for, hypnosis is not addictive.
However, one can easily mimic a drugged state in hypnosis,
provided you have previously felt the effects of that drug. Your
body remembers. This is useful for pain control.

•        Hypnosis is not involuntary. Just as no one can make you
enjoy a movie that fails to entrance you, no one can make you
remain in hypnosis. The state is fully voluntary. You can not enter it
without your consent for more than a few seconds, and more
importantly, can not remain in hypnosis without your full consent. If
you become even the slightest bit uncomfortable, you will
automatically emerge. Hypnotists know this. I typically teach my
clients self hypnosis on the very first session so that they know for
certain that they can emerge whenever they like. Anyone can
emerge from hypnosis instantly by making that their intention.

Hypnosis Can Not Override Your Standards

Hypnosis can not make you do things that make no sense to you or
that are against your moral standards. Should you object to any of
the work while in trance, you will react one of two ways: you will
either emerge or you will ignore the suggestion. This is easily
proven by observing stage hypnosis. Go see a show, and you will
see people emerge and leave the stage throughout. Why? They
rejected a suggestion. Perhaps it was too silly, or it confused them,
or it was beneath their dignity. So, they either left the stage fully
alert or sat in their chairs without responding to the suggestion. And
there is nothing the stage hypnotist could do about it except
continue the show with the folks who were responsive. Of course
the fun people on the stage are those showoffs who would pretty
much do all the same silly stuff without the benefit of being in
trance; they are the same people who put lampshades on their
heads at parties under the influence of half a wine cooler.

You Can Not Get Lost in Hypnosis

Hypnosis is never a permanent state. Should the hypnotist stop
talking long enough, you will notice and emerge automatically. Even
more to the point, it is easy enough to assign yourself a time limit
when going into self hypnosis, and your subconscious mind will
automatically emerge you when your time's up. Even the hypnotic
trance of television eventually gets boring, and we've all pushed the
off button of the remote while yawning.

All Hypnosis Is Self Hypnosis

The hypnotherapist is your guide, not telling you what to do, but
telling you what you want to do. You choose to enter the state, to
remain in the state, and to do the work. This is why, ultimately, all
hypnosis is really self hypnosis. So why, then, would you need a
hypnotherapist? It's better and faster to have the help of a skilled
professional.

How Does It Actually Happen?

Hypnotists use methods we call techniques. These include Direct
Suggestion, Regression To Cause, The Forgiveness Pyramid,
Parts, The Spa of Your Inner Mind, The Recording Studio,
Progression, and Higher Mind.

The Last Word

The media uses hypnosis on you all the time. ALL the time.
Advertisers have been known to employ hypnotists to assess the
hypnotic potential of a given advertisement, and pay good money
for it. Everytime you watch tv and enjoy it, you go into a state of
trance. Ditto listening to music, going to the movies, watching a
DVD, hearing talk radio, reading a magazine, and so forth. When
you don't like a particular type of music, that is expressly because it
fails to put you into the trance you listen to music for. So here
comes the big duh. Why should media have all the fun?

Please visit your friendly neighborhood trance specialist and use
hypnosis to further your own goals.

Ah, hypnosis. So easy you can do it with your eyes closed.
