Hypnosis: Benefits You Can’t Live Without
Hypnosis In The Real World
When you think of hypnosis, do you get the image of a Freud-like doctor swinging a pocket watch to and fro in front of someone in deep emotional trouble? If so, you are not alone. However, this Hollywood image of hypnosis is far from true!
You don't have to be a nut to use hypnosis. Ordinary people, those you see every day, use hypnosis for typical problems. Ask yourself the following questions:
* Do you have a problem with weight loss?
* Do you find it difficult to quit smoking?
* Do you have other addictions you just can't break?
Then hypnosis is for you!
* Are you lacking in confidence?
* Are you stressed out?
* Are you fearful?
Then hypnosis is for you.
Hypnosis can help you with an unlimited number of personal issues, big or small. If you have a phobia, then hypnosis can help you eliminate it. If you have an addiction, then hypnosis can help you kick the habit. If you have a goal, then hypnosis can help you achieve it.
Mental and Physical Benefits of Hypnosis
But that is just the tip of the iceberg. Even if you don't have a pressing issue, hypnosis has extraordinary benefits - both mental and physical. Simply going into a hypnotic state on a regular basis is good for you and the hypnotist doesn't even have to suggest anything at all.
Let's take a look at some of the benefits that hypnosis offers:
1. Hypnosis Induces Deep Breathing: Stop reading for a moment and check your breathing pattern. If you are like most people, you will be breathing in short quick breaths. When you breath in this manner, you feel stressed out and tense. Not only that, fast breathing can make you feel dizzy, irritable, and foggy. After being hypnotized, you will find that you breathe deeper and thus feel more relaxed and calm.
2. Hypnosis Reduces Illness: There is no doubt that stress causes physical illness. Stress causes sleep disorders, increases our pain sensitivity, and can even increase our cholesterol. Since hypnosis is a state of deep mental and physical relaxation, being in this state on a regular basis is a way to reduce stress and thus illness.
Counting Calories? There Are Apps For That
For decades, people who wanted to get serious about losing weight joined Weight Watchers. They used paper and pen to help keep track of their calories with a point system. But today, people have much easier ways to track their calories -- using weight-loss apps. How many calories in an avocado? 300. The mobile apps take away your excuse for not counting calories. NPR's Anthony Brooks reports on the Boston-based company called Lose It!
The 'Empty Pleasures' Of Artificial Sweeteners
For this week's edition of All Tech Considered, NPR's Robert Siegel talks to Carolyn de la Pena, a professor at the University of California, Davis, about her new book, <em>Empty Pleasures</em> -- about the evolution and impact of artificial sweeteners.
Flying Cars? Conveyor Belts? The Future Of I-95
When Interstate 95 was being built 50 years ago, high-speed roadways and high-tech cars were a fantasy of things to come. These days, I-95 commuters fantasize about simply being able to move. With smarter cars and sky-high roads, the future may just come to their rescue.
Craigslist Drops Adult Services Ads
The section on the website was replaced with a black bar that says "censored." A group of state attorneys general had asked the site to drop the section last month, saying there weren't enough protections against blocking potentially illegal ads promoting prostitution and child trafficking.
Texas Opens Inquiry Into Google Search Rankings
The antitrust inquiry disclosed by Google late Friday is just the latest sign of the intensifying scrutiny facing the company as it enters its adolescence. The review appears to be focused on whether Google is manipulating its search results to stifle competition.
3. Hypnosis Increases "Feel Good" Chemicals: Whenever you are deeply relaxed, your brain naturally releases chemicals that cause you to feel good. These chemicals are often in short supply as we rush about our day. Hypnosis causes deep relaxation, allowing these "feel good" chemicals to flow and create a sense of control and well-being.
4. Hypnosis Promotes Good Sleep: As you get your body used to deep relaxation during hypnosis, you will find that you can get more restful sleep. It is as if your body "learns" how to sleep more peacefully due to the hypnotic state.
5. Hypnosis Strengthens the Immune System: Stress causes the body to produce chemicals of the "fight or flight" variety. This aroused state actually affects the immune system by using up the chemicals needed to keep it functioning! Regular relaxation, the kind you get in hypnosis, can help prevent this from happening.
Whether you have an issue or just need to relax, hypnosis can help you achieve your goal. You will feel stronger, more in control, more relaxed, and better able to handle your life. Hypnosis is, quite frankly, good for your body.
