Hypnosis as treatment
Hypnosis as treatment
In our modern world we must know modern methods of treatment . Each person
should know about hypnosis and telepathy , because we need the help of
parapsychology and other new abilities of the doctors and psychologists . Do
you know hypnosis ?
Hypnosis is a mental state (state theory) or imaginative role-enactment (nonstate
theory) usually induced by a procedure known as a hypnotic induction,
which is commonly composed of a long series of preliminary instructions and
suggestions.
Hypnotic suggestions may be delivered by a hypnotist in the presence of the
subject, or may be self-administered ("self-suggestion" or "autosuggestion").
The use of hypnotism for therapeutic purposes is referred to as "hypnotherapy".
Hypnotherapy is therapy that is undertaken with a subject in hypnosis.
The word "hypnosis" (from the Greek hypnos, "sleep") is an abbreviation of
James Braid's (1841) term "neuro-hypnotism", meaning "sleep of the nervous
system".
A person who is hypnotized displays certain unusual characteristics and
propensities, compared with a non-hypnotized subject, most notably
hyper-suggestibility, which some authorities have considered a sine qua non of
hypnosis. For example, Clark L. Hull, probably the first major empirical
researcher in the field, wrote,
"If a subject after submitting to the hypnotic procedure shows no genuine
increase in susceptibility to any suggestions whatever, there seems no point in
calling him hypnotised..."
Hypnotherapy is often applied in order to modify a subject's behavior, emotional
content, and attitudes, as well as a wide range of conditions including
dysfunctional habits, anxiety, stress-related illness, pain management, and
personal development.
A therapist who utilizes hypnosis as a primary tool for assisting clients to
achieve their goals. A Hypnotherapist often differs from others therapists by
focusing on the role of subconscious behaviors and influences on the client's
life.
In 1973, Dr. John Kappas, Founder of the Hypnosis Motivation Institute, wrote
and defined the profession of a Hypnotherapist in the Federal Dictionary of
Occupational Titles:
"Induces hypnotic state in client to increase motivation or alter behavior
patterns:
Consults with client to determine nature of problem. Prepares client to enter
hypnotic state by explaining how hypnosis works and what client will experience.
Tests subject to determine degree of physical and emotional suggestibility.
Induces
hypnotic state in client, using individualized methods and techniques of hypnosis
based on interpretation of test results and analysis of client's problem. May train
client in self-hypnosis conditioning."
Hypnotherapy takes many different forms, and has integrated elements from,
and in turn influenced, other psychotherapeutic traditions throughout its history.
The form of hypnotherapy practiced by most Victorian hypnotists, including
James Braid and Hippolyte Bernheim, mainly employed direct suggestion of
symptom removal, with some use of therapeutic relaxation and occasionally
aversion to alcohol, drugs, etc. This simple form of treatment employed relatively
direct methods and few theoretical constructs, but has continued to influence
most subsequent forms of hypnotherapy.
In 1895 Sigmund Freud and Joseph Breuer published a seminal clinical text
entitled Studies in Hysteria (1895) which promoted a new approach to
psychotherapy. Freud and Breuer used hypnosis to regress clients to an earlier
age in order to help them remember and abreact supposedly repressed
traumatic memories. Although Freud gradually abandoned hypnotherapy in
favour of his developing method of psychoanalysis, his early work continued to
influence many subsequent hypnotherapists. However, as Freud later conceded,
his French rival Pierre Janet had already published a case study describing the
use of age regression in hypnotic psychotherapy, a few years earlier.
Subsequent regression hypnotherapy was sometimes known as
"hypnoanalysis", "analytic hypnotherapy", or "psychodynamic hypnotherapy."
Many practitioners worked in ways that bore only faint resemblance to Freud's
original approach, although others continued to be influenced by later
psychoanalytic theory and practice.
Hypnoanalysis found support in both world wars where it was used by military
psychiatrists as a rapid alternative to psychoanalysis in the treatment of
shellshock, now known as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Considerable controversy developed regarding the use of regression to uncover
allegedly repressed memories in the 1990s as the result of several high-profile
legal cases, where clients sued their therapists over claims of false memory
syndrome.
Milton H. Erickson was one of the most influential hypnotists of the 20th century.
From around the 1950s onward, Erickson developed a radically different
approach to hypnotism, which has subsequently become known as "Ericksonian
hypnotherapy" or "Neo-Ericksonian hypnotherapy." Erickson made use of a
more informal conversational approach with many clients and complex language
patterns, and therapeutic strategies. However, this very divergence from
tradition led some of his colleagues, most notably Andre Weitzenhoffer, to
dispute whether Erickson was right to label his approach "hypnosis" at all.
Nevertheless, Erickson's work continues to be one of the most influential forces
in modern hypnotherapy.
The founders of Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP), a methodology similar in
some regards to hypnotism, claimed that they had modelled the work of
Erickson extensively and assimilated it into their approach called the Milton
Model.
Weitzenhoffer disputed whether NLP bears any genuine resemblance to
Erickson's work.
Cognitive behavioural hypnotherapy (CBH) is an integrated psychological
therapy employing clinical hypnosis and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT).
In 1974, Theodore Barber and his colleagues published an influential review of
the research which argued, following the earlier social psychology of Theodore
R. Sarbin, that hypnotism was better understood not as a "special state" but as
the result of normal psychological variables, such as active imagination,
expectation, appropriate attitudes, and motivation. Barber introduced the term
"cognitive-behavioral" to describe the nonstate theory of hypnotism, and
discussed its application to behavior therapy.
The growing application of cognitive and behavioral psychological theories and
concepts to the explanation of hypnosis paved the way for a closer integration of
hypnotherapy with various cognitive and behavioral therapies. However, many
cognitive and behavioral therapies were themselves originally influenced by
older hypnotherapy techniques, e.g., the systematic desensitisation of Joseph
Wolpe, the cardinal technique of early behavior therapy, was originally called
"hypnotic desensitisation" and derived from the Medical Hypnotism (1948) of
Lewis Wolberg.
The traditional style of hypnotherapy can be seen as a precursor of
cognitive-behavioral therapy insofar as both place emphasis upon "common
sense" theoretical explanations and the use of relaxation, and rehearsal of
positive ideas and imagery in therapy. Modern cognitive therapy primarily differs
from previous hypnotherapy approaches by placing much greater emphasis
upon the direct Socratic disputation of negative beliefs. However, cognitivebehavioral
hypnotherapists have assimilated this technique alongside their use
of hypnosis.
From the 1980s onward various clinical textbooks about CBH were written by
researchers such as Steven Jay Lynn, Irving Kirsch, E. Thomas Dowd, William
Golden, and Assen Alladin.
Professional membership boards :
* American Society of Clinical Hypnosis (ASCH) was founded in 1957 by Milton
Erickson, MD. It is an interdisciplinary organization of medical, dental and
mental health professionals interested in the clinical use of hypnosis. ASCH
promotes understanding and use of hypnosis as a clinical tool with broad
applications in medicine, dentistry and mental health. ASCH offers training and
certification programs and provides practitioners with ethical and treatment
guidelines for the clinical use of hypnosis by trained, licensed professionals.
Currently, ASCH has nearly 2,000 members in the U.S., Canada and other
countries.
The practice of hypnosis is not only used for entertainment in stage shows but
also it is used effectively in treating mental and bodily disorders. Even though
hypnosis is a scientific technique mystery still shrouds it and people look at it
from a skeptical point of view. There are many uses of hypnosis and it can treat
individuals suffering from hypochondria or other bodily or mental problems.
Hypnosis is nothing but a trance like condition of the mind where the
subconscious mind of the individual accepts suggestions that are external and
may be verbal or non-verbal. It is however extremely important that the method
be used only by trained practitioners of the technique who know the advantages
and disadvantages of the technique. One can find traces of healing the mind in
some of the cultures of the world that used the technique of hypnosis but were
not aware of its scientific background.
Hypnosis is effectively used in making individuals give up habits like smoking,
managing extreme pain, losing weight, getting rid of addictions, and even
changing habits of individuals. Hypnosis treatment is the best alternative method
over the conventional ways of treating mental and bodily problems. The power
of the mind is unleashed by hypnosis, the mind accepts external stimuli easily,
and thus one can surely hope for positive changes in the behavior of the
individuals. Mental and bodily relaxation is best achieved by the method of
hypnosis and one can even hope for improving their memory, concentration,
visualization, getting rid of emotional trauma, and other metal problems.
Hypnosis has also proved its capacity to heal physical conditions like asthma,
migraine, enuresis, obesity, bowel disorders, and pain management during
childbirth. One can surely hope for bringing permanent behavioral changes by
the use of hypnosis treatment. The effect of hypnosis is not at all a placebo
effect but it can be of great help in achieving long-term mentaland physical
relaxation.
Millions of people throughout the world suffer from anxiety caused by stress and
even in its least severe form it can have an adverse effect on your health and
day to day life. People suffering from extreme cases of anxiety can even
become house bound, suffering from agoraphobia. While the majority of us can
deal with stress and anxiety on a daily basis and let it go, millions throughout the
world cannot and are forced to suffer a limited existence.
Hypnosis has a calming affect on the whole body that alleviates both stress and
anxiety.
There are many ways that anxiety can be reduced, a doctor can prescribe
medication and it might be advisable and needed at first. There are also many
therapies available to those suffering including learning relaxation techniques
and meditation. However, despite the wide variety of treatments, one of the most
popular alternatives is hypnosis therapy.
There are different ways to take advantage of and use hypnosis. In the simplest
form hypnosis can be done at home, all that is needed is to purchase one of
many DVD`s or tapes that are specially prepared for home use and listen to it.
The other option is going to a hypnotist who will guide you throughout a session
or several sessions, in order for you to get on top of your problem.
Hypnosis has been scientifically validated as an effective way to treat anxiety,
stress, depression, low self-esteem and other psychological disorders.
How does hypnotherapy work with anxiety?
Stress and anxiety and especially the symptoms that anxiety produces are all in
the mind, meaning they are thoughts and feelings from signals that the brain
sends out.
In reality when suffering from anxiety you are tricked by your brain into thinking
there is something wrong. If you were to just let the feelings pass without giving
them any credence then they would simply disappear, however those who suffer
don't.
They hang onto the feelings and let them bother them; they believe that
something must be seriously wrong for them to feel this way. The more they
think and let the feelings bother them, over time these feelings get instilled in the
mind and this becomes the natural way of thinking.
Hypnosis is a proven method for overcoming anxiety. The process of hypnosis is
rewarding, positive, safe and gentle.
Using hypnotherapy changes the pattern of your thoughts, it brings you out of
the stupor you have put yourself in and teaches you how to let these thoughts,
feelings and worries go and come back to the real world. It brings back and
establishes your pattern of free will, which through sheer terror you let go. You
are then able to react to everyday occurrences and stress as you had previously
before this took a hold of you. Hypnosis merely interrupts this new way of
thinking that you have quickly let establish and returns your old way of thinking,
thereby freeing you from the debilitating life that you have made for yourself and
allows you instead to be the person that you once were.
Hypnosis is perhaps one of the best ways to overcome problems with anxiety as
it focuses on the true problem at heart, the brain and its pattern. It is one of the
safest ways and a way that anyone can go as the therapy can be undertaken in
the persons home where they feel most comfortable.
Relaxation in to Self Reliance and Constructive Changes
Meditation is one way to achieve relaxation. Meditation is considered mindguided
control because you are allowing your mind to open up by breathing and
visualizing yourself in a relaxed state. Another form of mind-guided control is
self- induced hypnosis. Self- induced hypnosis should be learned from a
professional before you start practicing at home. Self- induced hypnosis allows
you to relax by going inside the power of your mind. To understand the
technique you will want to go online and speak with a qualified professional.
Once you have completed the relaxation phase of your self-hypnosis induction
procedure, you can begin to deepen the relaxed state.
How hypnotherapy benefits you:
When you learn hypnotherapy, you will learn control. Most individuals feel they
cannot relax even when they try because the stress leaks into their mind. With
self-hypnosis, you learn new skills to attain relaxation. Individuals who have
phobias, fears, or other disorders often find self- hypnosis will help them through
times of an anxiety attack. Specialist believe learning to control any fear will
help build a stronger person as well as a stronger relationship with others.
Self-hypnosis will also help control your emotions by learning to observe
yourself and your actions before letting your emotions rule. Hypnotherapy is
another way to relax when you are in pain. Individuals who experience pain from
a disease or accident find self-hypnosis can help them feel free of pain for a little
while.
While a person is undergoing hypnosis they are induced into a deep state of
relaxation.
Another reason to use a meditation or self-hypnosis is increasing your sex drive.
Many couples have found an increase in intimacy when they learn how to relax
and view their inner self. They can often heal their relationship when they relax
and communicate. Relaxation through mind-guided control also helps improve
your memory.
You are taking the time to relax and review events so the mundane information
that is no longer important is shuffled out where you are able to concentrate on
the things that matter. Stress management is another way of looking at
relaxation through mind-guided control because you are able to learn methods
for letting stress go. If you have problems in your relationships, maybe you are
having trouble forgiving some one you can use these self hypnosis techniques
to view your feelings, to find peace, and eventually find the way to forgive
someone.
Individuals who try meditation find a quiet place to sit or lay while they let their
bodies concentrate on relax and their minds take a relaxing vacation. Music can
also help during meditation to paint the picture the mind wants. Once you attain
a relaxed state and let the stress go, your body will feel better. The pain your
carry in your neck, shoulders or behind the eyes releases when you relax.
Self-hypnosis allows creates more energy and motivation. When you are feeling
better you often have more energy to do other things whether it is with your
family or being more efficient at work. Our goals make us work hard, but if we do
not take the time to relax and leave the stress behind it is difficult to achieve
those goals.
Relaxation through mind-guided control can be used in several situations. You
can meditate to achieve a less stressful life or use self-hypnosis to expand your
self.
By growing as a person, you can attain more goals and feel more contentment
in your life rather than keeping the negative feelings bottled up inside you. It is
important to relax as often as possible to have energy for the things that matter
in life. Relaxing everyday all day is of course excessive, but once a day for thirty
minutes can help with the quality of your life.
Research has shown that there is a very heavy link to the way our minds work
and our sex lives, along with this all our emotions, thoughts and feelings are
influenced by our sexuality which undoubtedly bonds them together.
By looking deeper into the mind and exploring all the possibilities it holds you
can harness the power of your mind and the link between sexuality and use this
to bring the spark back into your love life and bedroom. You and your partner will
be able to build upon the relationship you enjoy now, but enhance the intensity
of your sex life like never before. One excellent way of harnessing and using this
power is by hypnosis, we already know the power that hypnosis holds, people
have used it successfully to lose weight, stop smoking and get rid of fears and
phobias that they have held for many years. If it works for these then imagine
what it can do for your sex life.
One of the biggest problems with people's sex lives is the lack of ideas and
more often than not the courage to go along with those ideas and turn them into
reality.
Woman more than men tend to have many inhibitions when it comes to new
ideas in the bedroom, women have a tendency to hold back and not to voice
what it is they want, what makes them happy, what makes them achieve
orgasm. This is one way that can be a great boost to the sex life, after a few
sessions of hypnosis you will be able to lose those inhibitions and totally let go
of worries and just let it all out.
For those who aren't as held back when it comes to voicing what they want and
enjoy, hypnosis can still play an important role in boosting the sex life. Hypnosis
can show and teach you how to relax more quickly and easily. It can show you
how to turn up your sensuality and increase your sexual libido.
Self hypnosis can also boost the sex life and is fun in the bedroom, by
hypnotizing your partner you are able to enjoy sexual pleasure much more
intensely. By bringing self hypnosis into the bedroom and both partners learning
the technique you are able to get into the mind of the other and take each other
to new heights when it comes down to arousing the other, by teasing them and
tantalizing them to the extreme.
When under hypnosis the feelings are so much more exaggerated and when
having sex this way feelings and pleasure can increase tenfold.
There are many ways to learn self hypnosis, a search online will lead you to
many sites that offer books, DVDs and recordings, once learned the possibilities
of what it can bring to your sex life are endless and are only limited by what you
want to do.
Every time I was in a big group of people, in fact, I would get anxiety panic
attacks. Social anxiety disorders are one of the most frequently debated
subjects in the medical community. Social anxiety disorder treatments include
herbs, drugs, therapy, meditation, and things so esoteric that they would be hard
to explain. In the end, I was only able to cure my social anxiety disorder through
sheer grit and perseverance. The meditation helped somewhat, nutrition and
exercise helped somewhat, therapy helped a little bit, and the anxiety support
group helped. My anxiety social disorder would not get better from avoiding
groups. I knew that the only way to successfully face social anxiety disorder was
to get up in front of a crowd.
Hypnosis is not just an entertainer's trick to please and amuse crowds.
Hypnotherapists are helping migraineurs ease their pain. Sometimes they are
even able to relieve other migraine symptoms like vomiting and sensitivity to
light and sound, too.
The hypnotist's goal is to relax patients into a trancelike state in order to access
their subconscious mind. A good therapist will then place gentle suggestions in
the subconscious that will help migraineurs deal with their pain by changing how
they perceive it.
Rather than focusing on pain perception, some hypnotherapists work with
patients to learn to identify and avoid their personal migraine triggers. This can
be doubly effective for migraineurs who smoke if it is one of their triggers.
Hypnotherapy has been a recognized smoking cessation technique for decade.
Some patients enjoy this type of therapy so much, since it usually very relaxing,
that they decide, either on their own or with the aid of a therapist, to learn
self-hypnosis. Oxford Hypnotherapy has a free downloadable book and audio
course available on their website for people who would like to learn more about
self-hypnosis. You can find it at
http://www.hypnos.info/pages/freeselfhypnosis.html.
Hypnotherapy is an excellent option for patients who do not respond to
traditional migraine therapies. It is a great alternative for those who are either
sensitive to migraine medications or are unable to take them for medical
reasons. Hypnotherapy is highly recommended for migraineur women trying to
avoid medications during a pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
Hypnosis is not magic. Patients are not under a spell or in the thrall of the
person who puts them into the trance. Hypnotherapy is an interactive process
between therapist and patient.
Hypnotherapy should only be undertaken with a certified hypnotherapist. To find
a good one, check with the American Association of Professional Hypnotherapist
(online at www.aaph.org) or the National Board for Certified Clinical
Hypnotherapists
(www.natboard.com).
Smoking not only kills the smoker but also those who are constantly around
them.
Family and friends of the smoker stand a greater danger of passive smoking
and hence it is never too late to quit smoking. The power of the subconscious
mind can conquer anything let alone smoking. Hypnosis has proved its
effectiveness in stopping smoking beyond anything else and it is cheapest and
natural methods of giving up the habit of smoking. Any addiction is first
psychological and then the bodily craving for it starts, so is the case with
smoking. The hypnosis therapy for smoking focuses on the power of the mind to
accept positive suggestions when in a trance like state and thus can help
individuals to quit smoking. Hypnosis therapy for smoking controls
the subconscious into helping the smoker break the mental addiction to
smoking. A trained hypnotherapist opens up the smoker's subconscious mind,
and gives positive suggestions to it for giving up the habit. The hypnosis method
controls the body's cravings for a smoke and thus gets you rid of smoking.
Besides hypnosis for giving up smoking, there is also the hypnosis seminar
which one can participate in and quit smoking. A hypnosis seminar is a large
gathering of individuals wanting to quit smoking. When a smoker attends a
gathering where there are similar individuals like him, the urge to quit heightens
naturally and the hypnotherapist gives them positive suggestions on a mass
scale. In the hypnosis seminar for giving up smoking, smokers are not
individually attended; and rather they are treated as one group and the activity
becomes social, thus enhancing the need to quit. When a smoker sees many
people facing the same problem, he feels comfortable and his mind pushes him
towards giving up the habit. Generally, companies organize such seminars and
help their employees get out of the habit that is killing millions of individuals
around the world.

Hypnosis is a method that helps a person enter into a state of calm, alert
awareness so he or she can more easily work on making personal changes.
People often use hypnosis to overcome fears or habits.
* Under hypnosis, a person is more focused. Hypnosis helps a person block out
distractions and focus on a specific idea, sensation, or memory.
* Hypnosis brings a state of deep relaxation. The relaxation during hypnosis
makes it easier to observe anxieties, fears, pain, and other difficulties from a
new perspective.
* Hypnosis can help a person be more open to suggestion. Hypnosis enables
openness, because the conscious mind — which can be more closed and
critical — is quiet, while the unconscious mind has center stage.
In research studies, hypnosis has been shown to help reduce:
* pain
* nausea
* vomiting
* stress
* anxiety
There are many kinds of hypnotic techniques. After you're under hypnosis, a
hypnotherapist may:
* talk to you in a soothing way to help you feel relaxed and secure
* make suggestions about positive behaviors
* encourage you to clearly imagine yourself acting differently, a powerful
practice called "mental imagery" .
A hypnotherapist can work with you to find the technique that can work best for
what you're trying to accomplish. Although it's important to begin by working with
a
hypnotherapist, the hypnotherapist can then teach you self-hypnosis so you can
practice at home. Once you have a firm grip on an issue like pain or fatigue with
the therapist, you can continue on your own with self-hypnosis.
What to expect in a typical hypnosis session
At your first hypnosis session, the hypnotherapist will probably ask you
questions about your medical and emotional history. He or she will ask you to
talk about any problems you're having, such as pain, anxiety, or tiredness. Once
the hypnotherapist knows more about what you're going through, he or she will
choose an appropriate hypnotic technique.
* The hypnotherapist may begin by asking you to close your eyes and then may
talk to you in soothing tones and describe vivid imagery to help you relax.
* Once you are under hypnosis, the hypnotherapist may propose ways of
reaching certain goals, such as pain reduction or increased feelings of serenity.
* A typical session can last from half an hour to an hour.
* You may have one session or a series of sessions.
* At the end of a session, you are capable of bringing yourself out of hypnosis.
* After your session, you can resume your normal activities.
What hypnosis is not:
* When you're under hypnosis, the hypnotherapist cannot control you. It is not
possible for a hypnotherapist to force you to do anything that you don't want to
do.
* You cannot be hypnotized against your will. You must be open and receptive to
the idea of hypnosis for it to work.
Hypnosis practitioner requirements
In most states, the practice of hypnosis is not regulated, so it's important to look
for someone who's experienced. Many licensed health care professionals, such
as social workers, psychologists, and medical doctors, have been trained in
hypnotherapy. People who are not health care professionals can be certified at a
number of schools, which may require 60 to more than 200 hours of training. In
the United States, certified, experienced practitioners can be found at the
National Board for Certified Clinical Hypnotherapists (NBCCH). Although
certification with the NBCCH is not a requirement for practicing hypnosis, the
NBCCH was formed by hypnotherapists hoping to improve the standards and
integrity of the hypnosis profession. Other countries have their own systems of
certification.

Did UofO purposefully flood their football field in the 70's and 80's?
I was told by some people that University of Oregon made a practice of purposefully watering their artificial turf field in the 70's and 80's to make it a more difficult place to play. This was on days that it was not raining in Eugene. So, visiting teams would show up and wear shoes based on it not raining while the Ducks would wear their "Rain Shoes".
I have heard it from a few people, but I never have watched UofO football too much so just looking to see if anybody remembers that happening.
Never heard of that before but it sounds heck of neat. I bet it worked every time.
