What is Hypnosis?
‘Happiness is something that you are, and it comes from the way you think.’ – Wayne Dyer
Context
Hypnosis opens up communication between the conscious and the unconscious mind generating remarkable results. Our conscious mind is the goal setter in life and our unconscious mind is the goal getter. Through hypnosis the conscious and unconscious mind become aligned making the achievement of goals easier and more natural.

‘ We are boxed in the by the boundary conditions of our thinking’ - Einstein Hypnosis is a way of communicating with your unconscious mind. When hypnotized the client reaches a state of total mental and physical relaxation. Through hypnosis you can bypass the critical factor of the conscious mind, which is the realm of judgment, prejudice and limitation, and communicate with the unconscious mind directly. When hypnotized, suggestions are instantly transferred to the unconscious mind. If a suggestion is accepted by the unconscious mind, it will become a new empowering belief or positive habit without the need for conscious will power. This can create a radical, positive change to a client’s approach to relationships, work and health.

Professional development, career and business success
Professional performance is largely determined by our mental states. Many performance issues arise not from lack of knowledge or ability, but from personal issues. These personal issues are a common cause of underachievement. New Market Wizard Robert Krausz argues that 75% of trading depends on your psychology, and author of Emotional Intelligence, Daniel Coleman notes that only 4-10% of career success is determined by IQ. A larger quotient of your career success is determined by emotional intelligence.
Hypnosis can help you control your emotional state to maximize your professional performance, thereby giving you a greater Emotional Quotient – a quotient which is in direct proportion to the amount of success in your career, sport, business and health.
Weight-loss
Unhealthy lifestyles are creating major mental and physical health problems. According to the Victorian government 7 Million Australians are now obese or overweight. This is not only putting a strain on our health system but also having a negative impact on individual lives. People suffering from obesity often have high blood pressure, diabetes and heart disease and they are also more likely to suffer from a poor body image, depression and lower self esteem.
Hypnosis is a reliable and effective method to control habits. As such, hypnosis can assist the change of eating habits and increase motivation for desired weight loss. As a result the weight loss clients generally improve their self esteem, body image and gain greater confidence.
Negative Emotional States and Health
An empowering emotional state is the foundation of personal success. Motivation, excitement and confidence are three pillars on which success is built. The right state of mind focuses energy in the right direction and makes success possible.
There is a clear relationship between a healthy mind and a healthy body. Your emotional state, how you feel and what you think about, directly impacts the strength of your immune system. Being depressed affects health as negatively as smoking and physical inactivity. In effect, negative emotions suppress the immune system. Thus, people who are depressed are more likely to become sick.
Hypnosis can help you gain control over your state, at your own discretion, and to get into a resourceful state at any time you choose. Layne Beachley winner of 6 consecutive surf world cup titles, uses hypnosis to achieve an optimal emotional and mental state before training and competition. She experiences hypnosis as: ‘I am gaining strength from the inside out mentally, emotionally and physically.’ Beachley puts herself in a positive emotional state and is therefore ready for success. This can also be done with people who suffer from anxiety and depression. With hypnosis we have power over our emotional states with positive consequences for health, well-being and balance as a result.
