Hypnosis: What’s it All About?

By Saline Walsh | June 10, 2022 |

Hypnosis, also referred to as hypnotherapy, uses focused attention, intense concentration, and guided relaxation to achieve a heightened state of awareness. When a person is in the hypnotic state, the outside environment tends to be muted, and their attention is focused on specific thoughts.

Hypnosis can be used in psychotherapy. The hypnotic state allows a person to explore painful memories, thoughts, and feelings that they might have suppressed.

Suggestion therapy – During the hypnotic state, a person responds better to suggestions. It can be used to change certain behaviors, like stopping nail biting or smoking. It also helps in altering perceptions and sensations and is used in pain management. .

What are its benefits?

Hypnotherapy is used to help treat certain conditions, including the following:

Weight loss

Stress

Smoking cessation

Sleep disorders

Post trauma anxiety

Phobias

Hypnosis can change your life for the better:

Hypnosis can help a person to stop smoking, and help them develop the attitude of a non smoker.

It can also help in your bid to lose weight. Eating healthy and performing exercises are the key components for weight loss. However, there are cases where some people have to get rid of emotional and unconscious factors.

Hypnotherapy will help you sleep better. Therapists say that when you worry too much, or you are anxious all the time, it would be hard to get a good night’s sleep. It will help you sleep better because it will aid in stress management.

It helps ease chronic pain.

It helps athletic performance. If you are an athlete, you always have to be in tip-top shape. Through hypnosis, you can achieve a relaxed mind and body, which helps you focus on what you have to do.

What are its drawbacks?

Hypnosis is not indicated with people exhibiting psychotic symptoms, like delusions and hallucinations.

It should be used for pain management only when the doctor has evaluated the patient for any physical disorder that would need medical or surgical treatment.

There are therapists who use hypnosis to recover a person’s repressed memories that can be linked to their mental disorder. However, the information recalled by the person may not be accurate, and as such may create false memories. This happens when the therapists would ask leading questions or make unintended suggestions.

Hypnosis may not be the best choice to help treat certain medical disorders, but many therapists still use this technique because of the many benefits it offers.

After noticing significant positive changes in a close friend of mine that resulted from work with tc, i decided to visit houston to avail myself of tc’s services. Not only are the sessions completely affordable, i was pleasantly surprised by the results achieved as a result of the services tc rendered to me over the course of multiple sessions , over a period of months. I will return soon for another session and likely will remain a lifetime customer of this very generous man.

I’ve been seeing TC since 2014 and am so grateful for his help. Great listener and a very knowledgeable professional.

I've had a very positive experience with TC over the course of 5+ sessions (and to be continued). There is something very special about TC and the way he carries himself. TC is the type of person that you come across once in a lifetime. I believe he has a deep sense of how to effectively guide you to inner peace and understand how you tick. If you are struggling with anything in life, curious about what hypnosis is, or just want to learn more about you don't know, I highly recommend seeing him.

I went to TC to help with a bad habit. After speaking with him, he went right to the root of the problem. Stress! Stress was destroying my body physically. Immediately after the first session, I felt lighter and happy. I am 2 months from my first visit. I have lost 13 pounds without dieting. As far as my bad habit, it's no longer a bad habit. I can't thank him enough for all that he has done. I went for 2 sessions. One might have been enough but two reinforced the behavior.

I was a bit skeptical at first but now I'm a true believer. I used to experience 3-5 migraines a week. It was debilitating. I was on the road to taking very strong medicines on a daily basis, so I thought I'd see if hypnosis could help. It did. I have not had a migraine in over a year!

TC LeNormand helped me understand and remove fear, doubt, and other negative traits caused from childhood trauma. Every session gave me strength to work on my trauma to heal. He is patient, understanding, and guided me with compassion. A genuine person. I felt safe and learned so much. Highly recommend for anyone needing hypnotherapy.

I went to visit Hypnosis Houston about a month ago for my initial visit. Candidly, I went in dealing with an addictive behavior that I wanted to discontinue, and I was completely exasperated, having tried medications, traditional talk therapy, reading books and more. When I spoke with TC, the first thing that struck me is he is incredibly insightful and articulate. We had a conversation about my goals and about the process and what to expect, and then we did some exercises, and finally, he “hypnotized” me. I put it in quotes because it was hypnosis in the traditional sense, being put in a deep relaxed state and listening to spoken suggestions, but it’s not hokey like it is depicted on TV. After our 90 minute appointment he told me to give him a call in a week if I wanted to discuss or have another session. I did not call him, instead I went on about life and gradually things began to change. I did not notice it or attribute to the hypnosis at first, but after looking back and thinking about it, there was a marked change after my hypnosis in my own thought patterns, which in turn has changed my behavior. For example, I have been dissatisfied with my career for many years and have been told by just about everyone that I should go into business for myself, which I have always brushed off because of my aversion to risk and fear of failure. After the hypnosis, suddenly my mind is not hampered with as many of the negative messages that I used to tell myself. Instead this persistent thought keeps appearing that I control my destiny, that I can manifest anything that I desire. This thought has broken my old patterns of behavior and so many amazing things are happening in my life. I fully believe that the suggestions presented to me in my session have transformed my mind and life, because I was willing and open to the suggestion. My advice is give it a try. You have only a relatively small amount of money to lose and your whole life to gain. Try it!

I am a 27 year old that needs a transplant, but in order for me to be approved, I have to quit smoking. Which I have smoked 1-2 packs a day for closer to 15 years now. I have tried just about everything and turned to hypnosis as a last resort..and as a huge skeptic. Fast forward to first phone call: He immediately asked what my motivation was because he made it clear if I felt pressured by anyone or anything else, he couldn't help me. He's not doing this for only financial gain but the act of helping his patients. Fast forward to first meeting: session took 2 hours. He spent time asking about what I envisioned my future to be like and not all the reasons why I smoked. It seems like he's just talking like a therapist but you'll find out the entire time you are in his presence, he's working on you. I felt comfortable, and light. It's not magic, it's just a fascinating practice. AFTER HYPNOSIS CONCLUSION: for the first time in 10 years I got in my truck and didn't need to smoke. I could barely say or think the words "cigarette" or "smoke". As if it didn't exist in my vocabulary anymore. I felt like there's something I should be doing, but couldn't place it. For the first time in over a decade, I haven't had a cigarette in days, and don't feel the desire too. He trained me to think the future is more important that harmful things so I don't process the harmful thing anymore. I don't know why or how exactly it worked but I am thankful it did. I can now get on my transplant list! All because of who would've thought... Hypnosis. About the doctor: I felt comfortable, he obviously can profile people instantly so don't lie to him or the ineffectual treatment is on yourself. He is very friendly and cares about helping and connecting. I feel like HE was what set me up for success. 100/100 recommend and plan on seeing him again for sugar cravings since the first results were unbelievable!
