Components of Hypnosis
The components or what is sometimes called the ingredients of hypnosis are belief, imagination, conviction and expectation. These ingredients can either inhibit or ensure the hypnotic state, depending on how they work with the patient (positively or negatively) preparing for hypnosis.
Imagination enhances one's ability to be hypnotized, as imagination is the language of the subconscious. If a person can easily imagine being hypnotized, it will be much easier for them to enter the hypnotic state. On the other hand, if one imagines resistance to hypnosis, one will certainly not be hypnotized.
Regarding belief: whatever a person believes will happen will tend to happen if their own actions have anything to do with it. If someone believes that you will successfully facilitate hypnosis, your likelihood of success is greatly increased. On the other hand, anyone who believes that they cannot be hypnotized - or believes that you cannot successfully facilitate hypnosis - will most likely resist.
Expectations and beliefs are similar. Those who are convinced that you can hypnotize them will most likely expect to be hypnotized - and your success is much more likely. If one expects to succeed (or fail) and is totally convinced that it will happen, whatever expectation is believed and imagined will most likely be either the actual outcome or the perceived outcome.

Hipnoza în Medicina Integrativă
Hypnosis can be successfully used as a therapeutic method for any addiction (be it physical to an object or emotional to a person), phobia, or fear, but also to solve some health problems. It can be accompanied by other adjacent techniques in the healing process. In the case of health problems of any nature and severity, hypnosis can be used both to relieve symptoms and pain and to resolve the disease.
It can also be used to increase our skills, capabilities, and aptitudes. You can use hypnosis to learn more easily, increase your ability to concentrate, for creativity or improve sports performance. You can also use it to more easily build new skills that you don't have but want to achieve your goals. Slimming, losing weight by changing eating and exercise habits, is another situation for which hypnosis is highly sought after, causing extraordinary changes.
The three psychological principles of suggestion
1. Law of Attention: There is no action without stimulus. As long as the person is under the effect of hypnosis, he concentrates on a single idea to the exclusion of all other thoughts, so that if he is told that his arm is so stiff that it cannot bend, and no other thought is allowed to inhibit that idea, the arm will not bend because there is no incentive to do so;
2. Law of Reverse Action: This law is illustrated by the suggestion: "the more you try to bend the arm, the stiffer it becomes" - and must be used in all tests to prove to the patient that he is hypnotized;
3. Law of dominant effect: A stronger emotion will always defeat a weaker emotion. Emotional attachment to a suggestion makes it more effective. In the case of a conflict between the conscious and the subconscious, the subconscious usually wins.
What is Hypnosis?
Charles Tebbetts shows that hypnosis has several characteristics by which it can be identified, including an extraordinary quality of mental, physical and emotional relaxation, a partial absence of the inhibition process or a bypassing of the critical faculty of the mind. Master Charles Tebbetts includes in his description of Hypnosis, four mental states, as follows:
"Most of the time you are awake, you are in the beta state. That's a good thing since the beta state is like super speed—a state conducive to decision-making, reasoning, and logic. Brain waves reach a frequency of over 13 cycles per second, often much higher, and may or may not be rhythmic.
As your brainwave frequency drops, between 8 and 13 cycles per second, you enter the alpha mental state. The door between the conscious and the subconscious opens and it is easier to access memories and store new information. In this state of relaxation, we can become melancholic; we are also more suggestible - and this is the point that Hollywood exploits in movies and hypnosis shows. ,
When you are guided into the alpha mental state by another person or thing (be it a movie or a CD or a person) you are technically hypnotized.
Below these two conscious states are the theta state, the dream state, and the delta, which means deep sleep or total unconsciousness. Whether you remember your dreams or not, you must pass through the theta state when moving to or returning from the delta state. Likewise, you have to go through the alpha state when you fall asleep or wake up. You are in the same state of mind as hypnosis.”
The same Charles Tebbetts points out that Hypnosis, defined for the first time by an English doctor in the nineteenth century, as a state of sleep is totally inaccurate, the name hypnosis coming from the Greek word Hypnos, which means sleep. But hypnosis is not a state of sleep. Tebbetts says that hypnosis is nothing more than guided self-hypnosis where the hypnotist is an artist, or more precisely Hypnosis is an altered state of consciousness. Careful! Don't confuse awareness with consciousness.
Belief plays a very important role in hypnosis, but also in the field of medicine. '
Subconscious belief is the most effective factor for a successful life. It determines all behavioural patterns. However, belief systems are imposed on our unwary minds during childhood, before our critical factors are well enough developed to reject harmful ideas that we then have to reject later in our lives.
Subconscious beliefs determine whether we succeed or fail, whether we are happy or unhappy, sick or healthy, and whether we die or live.
Self-confidence means believing in yourself. Confidence does not mean competence. Most people lack competence in many areas, but these people still have confidence in themselves. I know that through practice they can learn to excel in whatever field they choose.
When the subconscious mind is convinced, it begins to act. As a hypnotherapist, his role is to persuade the subconscious mind. While a person is under hypnosis, the more the conscious withdraws, the more accessible the subconscious becomes - but consciousness does not completely disappear at any level. Hypnosis is a super concentration of the mind on a single idea, completely excluding all other thoughts.
Hypnosis can be called mono-ideism, due to the fact that the state of consciousness pleasantly slows down the functioning, focusing on a single subject.
The subconscious of the human being is the way to healing through Hypnosis
The subconscious according to the APA Dictionary is,,a lay term that is widely used to denote the unconscious or preconscious mind as described by Sigmund Freud or the general idea of subliminal consciousness. It is also popularly associated with autosuggestion and hypnosis. Because of its imprecision, the term is now generally avoided by psychologists." Few know, however, that the "subconscious" conscientiously executes, like a soldier, all the commands it receives from the brain because it does not differentiate between imagination and reality. For this reason, we often end up hurting ourselves by what we think. By truly controlling the subconscious mind, we can effectively program our health, freedom and abundance in all its forms. The subconscious represents a set of informational characteristics that can influence a person's consciousness, personality, thinking and perception. This includes judgment, memory and even language. The subconscious mind is an extraordinary mechanism that permanently records and reproduces the conscious mental programs we receive, as well as the unconscious ones. It is interesting that for the subconscious mind there is no concept of time, it performs all actions only in the present. The subconscious mind takes care of all the programs related to breathing, digestion, excretion and cellular nutrition along with millions of other actions that it performs daily in our body and of which we are not aware. It is very important to remember that the subconscious mind resists change. Of all our habits, habits and thought patterns are the result of previous "programming" of the subconscious by parents, teachers, peers, television - by a variety of sources. This programming can either propel us toward success against all odds—or prevent us from achieving success despite our best efforts, or lead us to poor health. Therefore, in order to be successful, or to be healthy, it becomes extremely important for us to learn how to gain and maintain control of our own subconscious programming. Virtually all of us struggle with changing a behavioral pattern at one time or another. From the moment the subconscious learns something, it tends to resist change; and the harder you try to force change, the greater the opposition. The subconscious behaves exactly like a child who does not like being forced and rebels. However, people spend impressive sums on countless "super books", smoking cessation treatments, various nutrition clinics, motivational programs, recordings, consultants, psychotherapists and other specialists, looking for help to change their old habits. habits. Logic only works with the conscious mind, but imagination is the language of the subconscious. Hypnosis helps the subconscious, amplifying its ability to imagine various, "imagination" can defeat, however, both positive thinking and the most solid logic. For example, many nutritionists say that 97 percent of people who spend various amounts of money to lose weight find that they return to their old weight in less than two years. In other words, diets work only on the body, not the mind; and unless the subconscious is also changed, the result of the will is only temporary. This is where hypnosis comes in.
