The fear of losing control during hypnosis is a common misconception. Today, let’s debunk this myth with some facts and real-life examples.
Hypnosis is a State of Focused Awareness
Hypnosis is not about relinquishing control; it’s about achieving a heightened state of awareness. When John, a busy professional, came to me to conquer his public speaking anxiety, he remained aware and in control throughout the sessions. He felt relaxed and attentive, enabling him to tackle his fears without feeling vulnerable.
You Always Have Inner Control
Clients often worry that they’ll do things against their will under hypnosis. The truth is, you can’t be made to act against your ethical beliefs. Take Sara, who used hypnotherapy to quit smoking. She was able to reject suggestions that didn’t align with her goal, reinforcing that the ultimate control always lies within the individual.
Hypnosis Enhances Your Control Over Unwanted Behavior
Hypnotherapy actually helps you gain more control over undesirable behaviors and thoughts. Mark struggled with insomnia for years. Through hypnotherapy, he learned to manage stress and anxiety, which helped him regain control over his sleep patterns, showing that hypnosis can enhance, rather than diminish, personal control.
