What Does Hypnosis Dangerous?

“With great power comes great responsibility”

Before explaining further I want us to equate our perception of hypnosis first, so that we can think and discuss with thought the same corridor. So far there has been confusion regarding the meaning or incorrect understanding of hypnosis. Hypnosis has been wrongly perceived as heresy or magic. So what is hypnosis exactly? As I explain in the book Hypnosis: The Art of Communication subconscious, hypnosis is actually nothing more than the art of communicating. More complete hypnosis is the art of communicating with an emphasis on the aspects and the process of mutual communication between one or more persons which occurs at the level of the subconscious mind. From the above definition it is clear that hypnosis is absolutely nothing to do with misguided science, magic, or supernatural forces. With reference to the definition of hypnosis that we agreed on, let's begin our discussion.  

Ambiguity of meaning is also often seen from the various writings in the media or the internet. I had read the ad in the newspaper or a story on the mailing list, it happened again when discussing the topic of hypnosis / hypnotherapy, the mixing between hypnosis and hypnotic. Hypnosis is the science or art of communication, while the hypnotist is a person who uses or practicing hypnosis. So what's the difference between hypnosis and hypnotherapy? All hypnotherapy using hypnosis. However, hypnosis can only be said to be a hypnotherapist when using certain techniques, which are therapeutic, to help clients improve themselves, according to the problems encountered. Hypnotherapist, thus, is a person who uses or practicing hypnotherapy. Sure is a hypnotist hypnotherapist. But hypnosis is not necessarily hypnotherapist. Returning to the above question, "Does hypnosis or hypnotherapy dangerous?".  

Hypnosis is one very effective way to reach the subconscious mind quickly and easily. Behavior change has been pretty hard to do because people, in general, do not understand how to get into the subconscious mind which stores various "programs" that control us. There are five ways to get into the subconscious mind: 1. Repetition 2. Identify the group or family 3. The information submitted by the authority figure is deemed to have 4. Intense Emotions 5. Or hypnotic alpha state With the help of hypnosis, a hypnotist or hypnotherapist can easily fit into the client's subconscious mind and do a brain-tweaking "programs". The result could be all sorts. Can be positive or negative. Modification or reconstruction "program" the mind will further affect the behavior of a person and as an end result of course will also change people's lives. Examples like this. You meet someone, call it Budi, who can not sell well. Though Budi worked in the field of marketing and sales. Budi difficulties caused by his belief that states that he is incompetent in terms of sales. With the knowledge and skills you have, you can enter the subconscious mind Budi and modify "programs" (belief) that inhibit Budi. After "program" was modified Budi finally able to become a salesman reliable. Well, in this case hypnosis / hypnotherapy resulted in a very positive effect. For more details regarding the therapeutic techniques used in hypnotherapy you can read the book Hypnotherapy: The Art of subconscious Restructuring. Negative examples like this. Suppose you, as parents and authority figures are viewed, while knowing that your child's test was far below the value of your expectations, saying, "You stupid boy. You can always be a poor grade. From the beginning until now never good your grades. Wonder why there are so ... stupid kids like you? " What do you do on your child is a very powerful form of hypnosis.  

Hypnosis you are doing to penetrate directly into the child's subconscious mind, through the gates of the subconscious mind which was wide open due to fear of getting bad grades, and will be very effective. Why effective? Because the sentence that you "select" is really a very powerful affirmation. Try to note the re-sentence above, particularly the words that I underlined. Let me give another example of the positive. How do I create a child, for example age of 1.5 - 4 years, which is difficult to eat a meal like? How do I create a child until age 7 or 8 years is still too "wet" (technical language, enuresis) during sleep at night becomes "wet"? With an understanding of how the mind works we can easily incorporate positive suggestions to help the child change his behavior. How how? We have to know when the gates open subconscious naturally and at that point we must immediately put a positive affirmation, of course, with a careful choice of words. I teach this technique to every parent who is present at my seminars in various cities. The result? Cespleng. I myself until recently, although I fully understand the workings of this technique, amazed and astonished often involve how quickly change can happen.  

Conversely, if we are not careful when talking to our children, especially with words that we use, then intentionally or not, we have been doing hypnosis that effect will be very negative. Research conducted by experts in the field of mind and brain, abroad., Get one result that we need to look carefully at all. The research states that children at ages 0-3 years only operate by using the subconscious mind. Thus, any experienced by a child in the first 3 years of his life will be absorbed by the subconscious all. If you want more precise, actually your subconscious mind has been active since the child is still in the womb. Filter mental (conscious mind) are just beginning to form when a child is 3 years old. This filter will further thicken at the age of 8 years and will be very thick at the age of 13 years. Although the conscious mind is the stronger works in the age of 13 years, from other studies that found an interesting discovery, namely children ranging in age from 0-13 years old are still very much operating in the theta brain waves (4-8 Hz). This is the wave of the subconscious mind. Intrigued by this discovery I measured the brain waves of our youngest children, aged 5.5 years, with Brain Wave 1 devices I have and find one thing that really surprised me.  

The measurement results show our children, when in a conscious state, it operates with absolutely no beta waves, brain waves are very few "very low" alpha, and very many of theta and delta. Can you imagine how dangerous it is when we, and also you of course as parents, say the wrong thing and being in children. Whatever we say will be directly embedded in your subconscious mind. Next will be a program of mind that determines behavior. Here I will give examples of positive and negative effects of hypnotherapy. In the book Hypnotherapy: The Art of subconscious Restructuring there are four examples, of the many cases which have dealt with very good results. There are clients who have been traumatized for 41 years and can be cured in just 30 minutes of therapy. There is also a phobia tensoplast, for over 20 years, fully recovered well in just about 30 minutes. There is also a phobia of mathematics and there is also a stutter successfully treated with hypnotherapy. There are clients who only require one session of therapy. There is need several sessions. Depends on the situation and condition of the client. Well, what hypnotherapy dangerous? Hypnotherapy will be very dangerous if used wrong therapy techniques. Here is a real case. A client who wants to visit a hypnotherapist to stop smoking. By the hypnotherapist, the client was induced, go into a trance, then disugesti with the following sentence: "From now on every time you smoke you will feel sick and disgusted by cigarettes. Every time you smell smoke you feel sick, nauseated and disgusted. From now onwards you hate and do not like smoking. If you smoke, you will feel your entire body hurts, your head dizzy, and immediately pictured you got lung cancer are very fierce and terrible. You certainly do not want to get cancer malignant and terrible, is not it? For that you need to stop smoking from now onwards " To the layman, what the hypnotherapist is his impression is correct. Did you know that therapeutic techniques as above, if the United States, categorized as malpractice? The hypnotherapist can be prosecuted and go to jail. What is wrong with the above techniques? Lha, if the client still smoking, what will happen? Programs that states "If you smoke, you will feel your entire body hurts, your head dizzy, and immediately pictured you got lung cancer are very fierce and terrible" will work right away. It could be that the client will actually get cancer of the lung. You see now how dangerous when do wrong? When in trance the conscious mind the clients 'off' so that the suggestions given will be directly embedded in the client's subconscious mind. Is it possible hypnotherapist can "redirect" the client to do things that are detrimental to the client? The answer can be but is not easy.  

When a client in a state of deep trance, three filters on the conscious mind can not work / off. All three of these filters, known as the three antisuggestive barriers, serve to filter the information received by the conscious mind. When in a deep trance state that is still active are two filters located in the subconscious mind. The first filter to check whether the information is entered, if implemented, would harm the client or not. The second filter checks if this information, if implemented, would conflict with the basic values ​​held by the client. If you managed to escape from these two filters then the information / suggestions (read: command) will be implemented faithfully. Thus, a client will perform the command that is suggested by the hypnotherapist depends on two things. First, hypnosis skills in convincing the subconscious mind the client that the client should perform requested by the hypnotherapist. Second, if it turns out the values ​​held by the client allowed to perform the requested command by the hypnotherapist. Confused? Let me give a concrete example. For example a client, say Anto, very dear to his parents. When hypnotized, into the deep trance state, he was asked to kill his parents. Is the suggestion / command will he implement? No! Why? Because this command is contrary to the basic values ​​that hold Anto. You clear now? For example Anto, who was very powerful worship, prompted stepped on his religious scriptures. Is he going to do? No! According to basic values ​​that hold Anto, stepping on the holy book will go to hell and be burned seven times. Of course, Anton did not want to go to hell. Another case when Anto indeed hated his parents. Or for example he was an atheist. If this condition is the command to kill his parents or step on the holy book will be done dutifully. Readers, any suggestions will not be made if not received approval from the client's subconscious mind. I am sure, now you have in mind the following question, "How to convince and get approval from the client so that the subconscious mind will do what we ask for?".

I will not give an answer to this question. Answering the question of whether hypnosis / hypnotherapy dangerous or not? The answer is not. Hypnosis / hypnotherapy is neutral. Not good or bad. Good or bad depends on who is using and for what. So this all back to us each. Just like a knife. The knife can be used for cooking. The same knife, after being used for cooking, can be used to kill people. So, really dangerous if hypnosis / hypnotherapist or hypnotist / hypnotherapist? Whenever asked a question like the above I always remembered what was said by Sipderman's uncle!
