Since 1977, Hypnotherapy has been recognized as a professional occupation by the U.S. Dictionary of Occupational Titles. Very comfortable, peaceful, natural. You are not anesthetized, unconscious or asleep. Your mind is active, your thoughts are under your control, you perceive all stimuli and you are in complete communication with the operator. Just about everyone can be hypnotized.
All people go through a state akin to hypnosis before falling asleep.
There is no reason why you should not be able to enter a hypnotic state. This allows deeper, authentic thoughts and feelings to come to the surface, helping you locate, uncover and edit memories of past experiences to make the positive and permanent changes you desire. Unfortunately, past experiences, guilt feelings, unfulfilled impulses and desires are incessantly pushing themselves into awareness, directly or indirectly, often sabotaging your happiness, health and efficiency. You're not alone. You participate in your own recovery, choosing what you need to work on.
