What does the word “Hypnosis” conjure up in your mind?

If you are like the majority or people, you may have extensive mis-information connected to the term “Hypnosis.”  The following is presented to give you a solid understanding of EXACTLY what Hypnosis Is … and — perhaps, even more important — what Hypnosis Is Not.

THE PSYCHOLOGY OF HYPNOSIS

WHAT IS HYPNOSIS?

Hypnosis is a specific state of mental awareness.  It is an alteration of your normal waking state of consciousness.  Simply put, when you are in Hypnosis, you are in a different state than your normal waking state.

What do you experience in your normal state of consciousness?

In a normal, waking state of mental awareness, your mind is fairly or acutely alert (depending on the situation!) and your body holds varying degrees of tension.  In the mental state of Hypnosis, your mind is alert and aware, while your body is relaxed.

Keep your mind aware and alert, then imagine what it feels like to relax.  OK? now hold this experience in your mind.  This is how Hypnosis feels.

Doesn’t that sound fairly simple?

Hypnosis is quite simple … and very relaxing.

When you relax, your body releases any tension and your mind automatically shifts its state of consciousness.  For the purposes of the Hypnosis contained on the tapes created by Dr. Shiple, your mind goes into Hypnosis because this is the way you are being directed.  And, in listening to the tapes for the purpose of making successful change in your life, you are following along, cooperatively, with the suggestions that Dr. Shiple is giving.

Hypnosis is a very natural state of mental awareness.
