Hypnosis is nothing new, and it works.

Like capitalism, and socialism, and communism, hypnotism is a form of conditioning people at the subconscious level. However, contrary to the above isms, hypnotism is mostly used at the individual’s request for the purpose of therapy and other health purposes, or by curiosity in entertainment settings; and it also used in other areas less noticeable.

Hypnosis has been used for centuries in minute areas of mental activity. Presently, the people using or studying hypnotism, range from physicians and psychologists to therapists and detectives and entertainers.

Like the medical and education professions, and any other business, hypnotism is used both as a source of revenue by professionals, as it is used as a benefit to the recipients. There are however, situations where hypnosis techniques or forms of mild hypnosis are used without the individual being aware of it.

These mild forms, range from some methods of relaxation to advertisement, and educational class management, and teaching techniques. Mild hypnosis sometimes is a natural stage that each person goes through. In these situations, normally the individual is not aware of it; and identifies the situation as not paying attention of whatever was in perspective.

Unfortunately, like in ay other area there are those who exploit the hypnotic phenomenon for what is not being used in general. Hypnosis is exploited by the practitioners as well as by criminals.
Certified professionals some times use hypnotic techniques to help clients, but the practice in general has been allowing religion to mix with and even confuse clients. Criminals used hypnotic strategies in helping them to achieve heir means; this is a minute use of hypnosis.

The most common use of hypnosis is “behavior modification” such as stop smoking, changing habits, and relaxation. As a peripheral technique, hypnosis is used by psychologists, physicians, and people in the medical profession, and others. The sensationalized aspect of hypnosis or “demonstrational hypnosis” is commonly known as stage hypnosis or hypnotics shows.

Hypnosis is beneficial and it is a scale that everyone can and should know how to do for personal use. The fact that people say that Hypnosis does nor work is because it is not used properly. As a former certified hypnotherapist, I saw the positive results of people changing their personality to what they planned to be or do. Such as reducing grass smoking, and tyrant supervisory attitudes.

This is the first of a few article that I will write and post probably in a weekly basis. It would not be fair to go into detail because of the length or reading.
