This is important because Bauer does not want to interject his religious beliefs on clients, but rather he works with your beliefs, even if you are an atheist. To be hypnotized, which is an altered state of consciousness much like sleep, you first must be willing to be hypnotized. If you have reservations as to whether or not hypnosis will work for you, quite frankly, it will not. In order to hypnotize you, Bauer leads you through the process by calmly talking to you, making you concentrate on every inch of your body as it relaxes. As you progress deeper and deeper into the hypnotic state, Bauer gives you positive suggestions to help you overcome whatever problem you have been experiencing.
Most clients feel rejuvenated upon waking from the relaxed state.
According to Bauer, one client walked into his office with a rash all over her. She turned to Bauer after conventional medical doctors were unable to find the cause of the rash. Placing her under hypnosis, Bauer suggested she allow her natural body healing process do the work. Bauer claims that before she left, the rash was completely gone and never reappeared again. Bauer said hypnosis heals because it involves the subconscious, which controls our body.
