Hypnosis - altering your inner world for a better outer world


Have you ever watched a famous stage 'hypnotist' - we won't name names - and wondered about the process that turns a seemingly introverted and serious person into an uninhibited and extroverted one, literally clucking around a stage like a chicken? And have you ever wished you could, if not exactly think that you are a chicken, at least embrace your outside world with the same decisiveness and lack of fear? If so, then your interest in a hypnosis course in Birmingham from Opt2xl (http://www.opt2xl.co.uk) won't be surprising.

However, you'll need to be freed of a few mistaken stereotypes about hypnosis before you can make the most of it. First of all, being hypnotised does not actually mean losing control of your thoughts and actions, as the popular 'theater show' portrayal of hypnosis would have you believe. To avoid being hypnotised in this way, a person simply has to refuse to follow instruction, as a willingness to follow instruction is required for all hypnosis - which makes all hypnosis effectively self-hypnosis. Actual hypnotism does not involve you doing anything against your normal values or morals. You will not do anything against your values whilst in a hypnotic trance that you wouldn't do in a normal waking state. That person who on stage clucks like a chicken would probably do that after a few drinks on a night out if asked!

One of the difficulties in discussing hypnosis is its wide range of definitions - but at a basic level, all of those running a hypnosis seminar in Birmingham agree on its existence and the help that it gives people to make changes at the unconscious level to get successful  changes in behaviour. By signing up to a hypnotherapy seminar in Birmingham by Opt2xl, you can therefore learn all manner of techniques for using hypnosis to alter yours and others states of mind, so that you and they are more responsive to positive suggestion.

A principle of hypnosis is that anything in a person's inner world eventually becomes part of their outer world. Hypnosis therefore helps a person to change their external behaviour by changing their inner world first. The hypnosis training in Birmingham of Opt2xl, for example, covers hypnotic patterns of indirect suggestion. The forefather of the permissive hypnotic method is Milton Erickson, who introduced radical changes to the Hypnotherapy field like an informal conversational approach with clients, therapeutic strategies and behaviour changing language patterns.

Ericksonian hypnotic patterns include non-directive suggestion, embedded commands and truisms about sensations, all of which are effectively understood by the unconscious mind to bring about change. Indirect suggestions, for example, partly work because they are less likely than direct suggestions to trigger evaluation and rejection by an individual under hypnosis. Also used are affirmative or "Yes" sets that get the agreement of the person to be hypnotised. A "Yes" set is a series of questions or statements that constantly lead a person to say or think "yes", which allows for a positive response when this is followed by a crucial instruction.

When the positive suggestions of hypnosis are combined with NLP and Time Line Therapy techniques, even greater success can therefore be assured for the client, who is subsequently enabled to make important changes to move forward with his or her life towards the outcomes that they want.
