What is Hypnosis / Yvonne Oswald PhD

Hello, I'm Dr. Yvonne Oswald Oswald Oswald. Let me tell you about hypnosis. All hypnosis is self-hypnosis. I'm not doing anything to you that you're not doing to yourself. I'm taking you on a guided tour of your own mind. And hypnosis is a state of alpha. You're in and out of it every 20 seconds in the day. When you're reading, when you're writing, when you're thinking of something different, when you're driving, even you're in a state of hypnosis. It's a— it isn't an altered state as much as it's a place where you daydream. It's a place where your imagination and your conscious mind and unconscious mind are meeting so that you can produce some great new stories for your life. In fact, hypnosis has great change at its very base. I'm going to give you the statistics. Alfred Barrios, PhD, in the American Health Magazine said, psychotherapy, 38% recovery after 600 sessions. Hmm. Behavioral therapy is 72% recovery after only 22 sessions, and hypnosis, 98% recovery after 6 sessions. It's a way to talk to your unconscious mind so that we produce that change. In fact, your conscious mind is only about 10% of who you are. Your conscious mind is a state of beta. It is 14 to 28 cycles per second. It's when you're high alert and conscious. And with your conscious mind, you perceive things, you make changes, etc. And people tell me things like, oh, it took me a year to quit smoking. Didn't it? Took 1 second to quit smoking. It took your mind, it took your conscious mind a year to make the decision to quit smoking. Once the decision is made, the unconscious mind comes in and 1 second later you are, you quit. The next stage is alpha. Alpha is 7 to 14 cycles per second with brainwaves. You slow down a little bit. It's when you're meditating, it's when you're in hypnosis, it's when you're actually designing or creating something or making up a story or telling a friend friend, or you can actually be in alpha when you're— when you've got good rapport with someone. You're at a party and you chat them away and you're not even aware of anything outside of you. Marvelous place to be. The deepest state of hypnosis is theta, and we go into theta when we go— when we're drifting off to sleep. It's that place just before you go to sleep and just before you wake up, or just after you wake up. That is 4 to 7 cycles per second. And theta is a wonderful place. You'll listen to some of my CDs or MP3s and you'll find that you think you fell asleep. You actually went into a deeper state of hypnosis called theta, and it's where healing on a very, very deep level takes place. That's why we do an induction in hypnosis. We induce you into a nice place, safe place in nature. And as you imagine that beautiful safe place in nature, we can— we do some counting, make you go deeper, relax. 10, 9, 8, 7, 6. Deeper and deeper relaxed now. 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1. All the way down. And of course, when you're coming out of hypnosis, when we— the idea, the difference between meditation and hypnosis, meditation is lovely, put you in a beautiful place where you really start some healing on an unconscious level. Hypnosis is much more directed. We actually go into hypnosis with the idea of a goal— releasing weight or stopping smoking or changing addictions, getting rid of those things. And delta is the 0 to 4 cycles per second when you're in the deep sleep, when your unconscious mind is actually healing your body on a physical level. And my belief is a lot of people who have sleepless nights actually have systems that are acidic or full of toxins. And quite often it's nutritional. So, you know, your unconscious mind is saying, I need some sugar, I need some protein, or I need some vitamin B right now. And it actually wakes you up in order to attempt to get the message through. And of course, we just say we didn't have a great night. And of course, it will, while you're asleep, produce dreams, and those dreams will produce emotional results. Where it's, it's attempting to sort out the firewalls in your brain. My belief is we have a huge, great quantum internet in our mind, which actually is way more than the normal internet. And we have amazing ability to use our magic genie in the lamp to change our behaviors and our results. Because the only two things that hold you back in life are negative emotions— super simple to clear— they're your Messaging system from your unconscious mind that we need to talk— anger, sadness, fear, guilt, anxiety— and your beliefs. And those beliefs were formed before you were 7 years old, and a lot of them are unconscious. You're not even aware of them. The only reason you know you have a limiting belief there is if something's not working in your life. So you want to be rich and you're not rich, you have a limiting belief somewhere, or you haven't sufficient information. That's another important point. In NLP, we say there is no such thing as failure, there is only insufficient information. You could do it the same way if you have the same information that that person has. And with those limiting beliefs, we have to unwind the beliefs and change them or modify them so that we can have amazing futures. Hypnosis is the most wonderful, wonderful technique. It's the most beautiful place to be. I use a lot of spirituality in my hypnosis. We use the angels, we talk about your guides. And it's really very, very important that you know that there is a higher purpose, that there is purpose for you being on here on Earth. There's purpose in you finding your soul group so you can be with us, because you wouldn't be looking at this if you weren't in my soul group. I said to my guide long ago I wanted my soul group people so that we could all raise to a higher level and help other people. So come for a hypnosis session, come and learn hypnosis. You can actually learn a new career and earn really good money doing healing these days. Uh, it's a very well-respected profession at this point.
