Dispelling Myths About Hypnosis

 

When you think about hypnosis, what do you visualize? For many, it’s a clock-swinging magician or a comedy act that forces an unwitting volunteer to make embarrassing public admissions on stage. Every time we get absorbed in a movie or scroll on our phones for hours, we're actually activating a mild state of hypnosis. 

But hypnosis has a surprisingly robust scientific framework. Clinical research has shown that it can help relieve pain and anxiety and aid smoking cessation, weight loss, and sleep. It can help children and adolescents better regulate their feelings and behaviours. Some people can even use “self-hypnosis” to manage stress, cope with life’s challenges, and improve their physical and emotional health.

Like meditation practice, many people are capable of doing hypnosis on their own but it never hurts to have a session with a professional hypnotist first. Contact us for more details here.
